Hello everyone, i got around 2000 squared feet of football field turf, i could have taken the whole field but i dont have the room, anyways i got it for free, i was wondering if ya'll think i could use this turf for a chipping or maybe even a putting green (if i filled it with sand) for the backyard? Thanks in advance.

Chipping for sure.   I don't know about putting green that's filled with sand.   It is likely to be very slow and won't behave like realistic putting green.  IMO & experience, if you get used to a slow green, you are likely to putt short on real green, at least until you get use to it by 9 or 10th hole ;-) .

      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.
