So what do you guys/gals think about the NE Patriots and deflated footballs?   For Whatever it is worth, I think the game with the colts would have been the same outcome even if the balls were "properly" inflated.  Having said that cheating is cheating I guess weather it be on purpose of by accident.  Certainly is in golf anyway but we'll await the decisions to see what it means in the NFL, if anything.

No, they don't use the same balls.  Check out the other thread where this has been discussed in (excruciating?) detail. :beer:

I'm confused, sounds like you are too... What are you saying? how can they use different balls? 11 of 12 were under deflated... So patriots used the one ball on offense??

No, what he is saying is the pats have 12 balls and the colts have 12 balls.. You only get the other teams ball when there is a turnover.

So... what is the advantage? Patriots brought this nonsense on themselves cheating with video cameras years ago... This is stupid.

I don't understand.. You mean what is the advantage of deflating balls? It is a matter of prefrence of the QB that's all.

Just going to lock this thread. Normally it would make sense to make a separate thread for this, but there are already so many posts in the NFL thread it wouldn't make a whole lot of sense. @dsc123 posted the link to the thread above.

      It's likely per "category" of clubs, so irons would be one category, wedges would be a category, driver a category, fairway woods/hybrid a category, etc. They aren't going to charge you $50 per iron for a fitting. Almost all iron fittings are done with like a 6 or 7 iron, fitters don't carry full sets of every iron. So yes, if you use a 7 iron for the fitting and let's say you get fit into the P790 with a certain shaft, 1 degree flat and .5" longer than normal you would just order the full set of P790s with that shaft/lie angle/length combination and you'll be perfectly fine.

      I think the $50 fitting price tag is per club. The clubs I am most interested in getting fitted for are irons. And I'd rather not spend a bunch on getting fitted for multiple irons. Would I be fairly safe to assume that choosing something like a 6 or 7 iron for fitting would likely relate to other lofts in the same configuration/make/model?

      A Mevo is 500. Comes with little decals to hit balls inside too.

      My Non-technical Review of the Titleist Tr2 Hybrid

      By snapfade ·

      I replaced a 3 driving iron as it was called. If I hit it clean it went close to 180 like the hybrid does but it was very inconsistent. I had to aim left because it would fade and I could never hit it dead nuts straight. We have a lot of wind being by the ocean so a left to right wind was suicidal with that club for me. I don't have a lot of Shot Scope data so far that would show yardage as far as dispersion or proximity to hole goes, but so far everything is staying relatively tight. I am not spraying the ball, I feel like it goes where I aim, any thing off is user error and not the club.

      Ok, great. Best of luck to you in the future. I gave you the answer for significantly less than $20k though, just sayin.
