  2. hey there, I have played vokeys in my first good set, but then i switched over to nike sv wedges, 52* and 60*... At first the spin was really noticeable, but now i see more of a consistant spin rate. I've also picked up a nike vr forged 56*... if you want to rip off covers on your golf ball i highly suggest a set of these! I'm definately going to convert my wedge set over to the older vr with sharp square grooves. best of luck
  3. i agree with shindig! I can only play 3 shots! a mini draw, a large looping draw, and a fade. beginners should concentrate on ball contact and not distance.
  4. He is just an amazing golfer, but I find he works the ball way to much to be effective. Ya! sure hitting a 60 yard fade on purpose is nice in all, but it just adds another variable in this already variable filled game.
  5. well it all depends on your swing type also, you hit constant slices or hooks off your driver, probably wouldn't want to play a spin ball correct? if the beginner can smack a ball dead straight, play a premium ball.
  6. I've had the 5900 reg flex sumo and it was amazing, loved the sound look everything. After developing quite a higher swing speed, I upgraded to the machspeed str-8 fit with a stiff shaft. Definitely worth it!
  7. not very nice in the wind, but can work the ball with abit of effort.
  8. priceless! simply get to be a world renown golfer with a reputation of being a slow putter!
  9. does the synthetic green have the same characteristics as natural grass?
  10. Lets go Red Wings!
  11. My first ever eagle on a par 4 came a couple years back at Hollinger Golf Course in Timmins Ontario. It was a nice morning, on hole number one; after ripping a drive down the fairway, it took a huge hop off the granite 100 yard marker and jumping up to 8 feet of the hole! I couldn't believe that it would actually happen on the first hole of the day!
  12. thank you, I was thinking it was along those lines.
  13. Heavy Duty Apprentice I currently work for Vale
  14. Hey guys, I'm rather new on this website. So two part question, I see these 'skins' on the profile page and i would like to know how to use them? also, since I've been looking through some of the forum posts, it shows the persons set of clubs in they're bag, but mine doesn't? does it take time for it to happen? thanks guys!
  15. If I bought a driver this year it would be the Cobra S3, or the Burner 2.0.
  16. I really enjoy playing the nike Method Core MCi-3
  17. Yeah, I can't wait to try out the new 20XI. I was reading an article and it mentioned that it playes way longer into the wind, while the Tour D plays longer with the wind.
  18. i hit my vr sandwedge 56* 14 bounce longer then my 52* 10 bounce sv tour, I need a club fitting to adjust it or something lol!
  19. not a true golf swing. ban belly putters...
  20. he's back for sure!
  21. even wedges?
  22. if it wasn't illegal, then thugs wouldn't have to transport it around right? what happend during prohibition? thugs moved around alcohol...
  23. nike slingshots are what I picked. I'm sorta in a grim situation tho, because my swingspeed is consecutively above 103 mph, so if i go regular shafts, i slice the ball and if i go stiff i'm not able to create enough club head speed to properly flex the shaft. any suggestions?
  24. but a average player can tell the difference between lets say, a maxfly noodle, and a pinnacle gold... I find I can see a difference in most golf balls.
  25. i completely agree with control junkie, it is a well rounded ball, with abit of comprimise around the greens. Perfect for a mid handicap.
