I can regrip my whole bag in under 15 minutes. When I use tape underneath I use blue painter's tape. It's slightly thinner than masking tape but easier to work with.

Played in New York for the first time this year, and managed a solid 39 (obviously only 9 holes). My home course opens tomorrow, so I'll get to start playing a lot more. But I have to say, after having the shanks in Florida and posting 3 of the worst rounds I've ever played, and one average round (104, 106, 111 and 87), it was nice to actually be able to hit the ball again. And without the 3 putt on one due to the ridiculous greens (like putting on shag carpet), it would have been an even better day.

I assume that you are setting the appropriate club for each shot? -
Anyone switch to Spikeless golf shoes?
hilmar2k replied to MGN's topic in Balls, Carts/Bags, Apparel, Gear, Etc.
I wear spikeless unless it's raining or very wet. Morning dew is no problem for spikeless, but if it's been raining recently I'll wear spikes. My spikeless shoe of choice is the Footjoy Versaluxe, which is sadly discontinued. Luckily that meant that I could get a pair in every color for less than half original price (good thing because they weren't cheap). -

I was being very facetious.... -

I bet an auto body shop could pull that right out.... -
2019, apparently.....

Yup, that's them. They are ridiculous. Here they are compared to my old irons (TaylorMade RSi1).

Are those the tiny ones? My fitter sells Miura clubs, and when I got fit for my clubs (ultimately ended up with Wishon 565MCs), I had to try to hit those for fun. Yeah, I could not.

My business partner has a Big Bertha Steelhead Plus driver leaning against his bookcase in the office next door to mine. I can't help but pick it up and swing it every time I walk into his office (20 times per day, maybe?). It's funny, because I was just making fun of how old it is (it was his father's, he doesn't use it), and we looked it up to see how old it was (1999, in this case).

ESC is for posting for handicap purposes, not for your scorecard. That said, I have picked up to save time and written my most likely score on my card, then posted my ESC for handicap purposes. I don't mind people that score however they want, just don't compare your "82" to my actual 83. ;)

Okay, so I just sold my GameGolf Live, but now I've apparently [inadvertently] talked my golfing buddy out of using his. That's not surpirsing, as he is even less patien than I am, and he already tried and returned an Arccos 360 system. So, his GameGolf Live is for sale. He used his for the same 2 rounds I used kine, so it is in equally new-ish condition. Box and all packaging included. $65 shipped. It sells for $99 new. For info on the system, go to http://www.gamegolf.com/products/en-us/live?v=6354a30.

I have a Caddytek with the slope and I like the slope a lot. I find the slope to be very useful. -
I figured I'd put it it in a box, slap a label on it, and off it goes. I'll cover whatever the cheapest method of shipping is, either USPS Priority or UPS. We should take this to PM.

Yes, very. The only issue I ran into (and it wouldn't be an issue very often), was temporary greens. Being February in the northeast, I played on a course with 5 temp greens. I had to move the pin location to the temp green area or it got all confused. Not complicated, but something to remember. Other than that, it seemed dead on.

I found myself too focused on how far I hit every shot, as opposed to just playing golf. Maybe I'd eventually get used to it and it would just integrate into my routine, but my lack of attention span and/or patience is highly likely to get in the way of that. I used a laser finder and GolfShot GPS app previously, and that combo works really well for me. Being a tech guy, I liked the idea of the tagging, and hoped it would be a better system. But, for me anyway, it just wasn't. By the way, I definitely did not give it enough rounds to work everything out, but I never do......

Selling a basically brand new GameGolf Live. Used only twice. Works fine, just decided it wasn't for me. Selling new for ~$100 currently, looking for $65. I have all of the original packaging. For info on the system..... http://www.gamegolf.com/products/en-us/live?v=6354a30
