  2. i vote who cares cuz to each his own. But if we start to see a popular trend of black shoes with white socks we all know it started right here, lol.....
  3. I keep all this in my bag pockets: tees, golf balls, GPS, coins, rain gear, glove, rain gloves, sunscreen, extra pencils, notes with a few swing related tips (which i never read. I just keep it in my bag for some reason), clif bar (if i didnt eat yet), divot tool.
  4. I'm pretty sure they are all different but dont know for sure. I have a taylormade wrench and cobra one. They are nothing alike....
  5. Since I own a GPS and not a Bushnell, does the Bushnell measure distance to a fairway bunker or water in case u need to carry it? I've played with a few people who own Bushnells and I always see them measure to the flag but not to certain points like the example I described. I'm only asking since I'm starting to lean in favor of a Bushnell instead of my GPS if my GPS ever breaks down.....
  6. Nike Tour D. Although i have a box of Taylormade Lethal to try out when the snow melts.....
  7. New member here from central NJ.... This site is great and very helpful... People on here seem more than glad to help others out. Thanks....
  8. i luv my GolfBuddy. It does the job and u dont have to pay any yearly fees...
  9. i slipped and fell on my back wearing tennis shoes while playing once. This was years ago when i started to learn golf... It was more embarassing then anything else. So no tennis shoes but the spikeless shoes they sell now are fine......
  10. I want something that's similar to my Nike Tour D. Great distance and somewhat decent feel around the greens... Your point about the 15 yd slice turning into 25 yds is why I am hesitant to choose one of the higher spinning balls (prov1, prov1x). Thanks everyone for your input. I appreciate it..
  11. i hit my driver.... cobra zl encore.
  12. Before I start, I currently use a Nike Tour D golf ball and they are no longer sold hence the ball fitting. I use regular flex on all my clubs and my hcp is 17.9 I recently did one of those golf galaxy ball fittings and just want advice based on my results. I know some people may think I wasted my money on a ball fitting it it was only $19.99 and it was in the middle of winter so why not.... I hit 5 different golf balls and below were the average (hit each ball 3 times) results: 1. Bridgestone B-330RX: 90mph Clubhead Speed, 135mph Ball Speed, 2079 Spin Rate, 215 yds Carry Distance, 238 Total Distance. 2. Titleist Prov1: 89mph Clubhead Speed, 133mph Ball Speed, 2243 Spin Rate, 208 yds Carry Distance, 230 Total Distance. 3. Top Flite D2: 89mph Clubhead Speed, 133mph Ball Speed, 2213 Spin Rate, 209 yds Carry Distance, 231 Total Distance. 4. Titleist Prov1x: 91mph Clubhead Speed, 137mph Ball Speed, 2341 Spin Rate, 216 yds Carry Distance, 238 Total Distance. 5. Taylormade Lethal: 90mph Clubhead Speed, 135mph Ball Speed, 2126 Spin Rate, 215 yds Carry Distance, 238 Total Distance. Fitter stated that my spin rate should be a little higher, maybe in the 2700rpm range in order to achieve optimal ball flight. I also putted with the prov1 and the D2 and the D2 felt horrible. I asked the fitter to rank the best for me just for an opinion and he said prov1 was the best for me and then the lethal, prov1x, b-330rx and the D2. Do you guys agree with the fitter? I would also like advise if anyone has a golf ball in mind that I did not test. I understand this might not be a big deal in the grand scheme of things but your assistance would be appreciated.
