If it was made by Mizuno and a new release, people here would be saying it was "pretty cool".

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

If you are talking worse performing, the VAS iron is not even close. Good club in performance. I saw a lot of them in the mid to late 90's

Callaway C4 was a poor performer, the Bullet, the Mac Burrows (?), along with the weird wedges that were in vogue in the late  90's, were odd.

The Parsons look odd, but the screws can be changed to adjust the weight of the head.

The whole appeal of Mizuno is their generally clean and simple looks. This club is neither.

That's not even a legal design. The rules state that the depth of the putter head can't exceed its heel to toe length.

Hammer seems to have a number of non-conforming products, this putter being one of them.

That, my dear sir, is the "pod" driver. Supposedly impossible to hit a slice with, which I suppose was technically true since it was almost impossible to hit at all. I saw a few around and tried one once - was really weird especially since at the time I was still using persimmon.

Saw something like that on ebay not too long ago. Almost scooped it up just for laughs but my brain kicked in and I let it be.

On second thought it looks more like a microphone... I really want to try hitting it.

EDIT: They're fairly cheap on eBay; give me enough to drink and I'll have one at my front door some time next week.

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
