  1. that's where i got my stuff from. great seller. i registered my ping g10 driver online at ping.com with the serial number that was on it, so i knew it was a real one. ebay has too many scammers. not only sellers. i was almost scammed by buyers as well. i was selling an xbox 360 with a buy it now price on it. the person won the item through "buy it now". the person emailed me and said that she bought it for her grandson in nigeria and that she would pay me to ship it there if i could. i even received a paypal email saying that she sent me the money that i had requested with the shipping fees to nigeria calculated in. i even had it boxed up and ready to go. but something didn't feel right. i researched a little more, and even contacted paypal about it and they said it was a scam. they said one important thing to look out for in their emails, is that they address you by your NAME and not as "dear paypal user". it was a close call, but it has made me even more careful when i buy or even SELL on ebay. that sucks that you got scammed. i hope things work out. i bought some jordans on ebay once and they ended up being fake. luckily, i was able to get my money back. BE CAREFUL OUT THERE EVERYONE!!
  2. i've been taught to imagine a wall against the rear of your leading shoulder on the backswing, which would prevent you from turning forward on the downswing. This has helped me start with my arms a little more and come down on the correct plane. i also work on focusing on my arms at the top of the backswing. i imagine me swinging into like a bouncy ball at the top. if i were to back swing into a large bouncy ball, it would make my arms bounce the other way into my downswing. i try to focus on feeling that "bounce" back at the top of the backswing. this should get the arms dropping down on plane.
  3. i drive a 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STI in Satin White Pearl.
  4. oh yeah that too. any shoe store sells the waterproofer and they do wonders for your shoes. not only your shoes, but your hats, wind breakers etc. the sales people in those stores try to sell you those accessories when you buy shoes because they need to sell multiple items with each transaction, but they really work to care for your shoes.
  5. you can go to any athletic shoe store and buy their shoe foam. if you need specifics, go to finish line and get a can of their's (i think made by kiwi) for $4.99. just spray it on, let the foam break up the dirt and just wipe it off. very simple, and it's safe for most shoes.
  6. sounds to me like you need some 9.5's. if your foot slides forward in the shoe too much to where you can fit a finger in there, then the heel cage can't hold your foot in. if it holds your foot in properly, it will feel better because movement within the shoe causes those stupid blisters in the back of your heel. that's probably common sense though. all that is my 6 years in the shoe industry talking. having said all that, next time i would look into tiger's shoe. i know they're expensive, but the 360II's aren't cheap either. i bought a pair of tw's for $99 online. nike has done a great job making the shoe perform and comfortable. of course, i've always been a nike fan. the cage on the tw's hold my foot very well. if there is a way, i would at least change sizes. maybe you could go to your local store and try on a smaller size to see if that is indeed the problem. at least you would know!
  7. what does the "v" stand for? if it stands for "version", then it would make sense to call it pro-v2.....version2.
  8. that's good to know. i will be getting fitted, so i will have the right shaft installed. the g10's ended up being a lot better than what people told me. it was very crisp and it launch the ball a pretty long way. i automatically felt that my handi would go down just by purchasing these clubs. but like i said before, i will let the fitting session tell me what i need.
  9. I missed it! I was at the range.
  10. Go Angels!!
  11. I could beat him in TaeKwonDo!
  12. Let's go Sooners! No more choking!!!!
  13. i'll be doing the same thing. i tend to rush my pre-shot and my shot on the course.
  14. i find i hit fat shots when i don't shift my weight properly on my backswing and downswing. sometimes, if there is too much weight on my front foot on my backswing, i will hit a chunk. then when i fix it and rotate properly around my rear leg with weight going to the inside of my rear foot, then i can make clean impact. like everyone has been saying, it could be lots of things. but for me, this happens everytime i do what i said above.
  15. that's why i keep wanting to go to the i10's. but i will let the pro help me decide which is best for me. either way, they're great clubs. and i've gotten used to the thick topline of the g10's after hitting a bucket yesterday. it actually gives me more confidence.
