I was hoping it was accurate so I could get real stats on my irons as far as distance spin trajectory etc. I will probably still use it for practice.. does anyone know if there is a putting feature? the one in my area has putting and chipping but would be curious if it read things like true roll speed etc...'

Being cynical I guess i wondered if the complementary distances and stats also helped in selling golf clubs

Anyone practice using the trackman monitors? I have one at a health club near me and I can use it for practice for 20 per hour. I wonder as to the accuracy. I was at a pro shop monday and was using a callway 4 wood which according to the monitor i hit consistantly 210 yards. Either the monitor is wrong or I NEED to go buy that club.. LOL Dan

I just got the G30s a few months ago. Being paranoid i got two separate fittings at 2 separate pro shops to see if the would concur. They both agreed on the shaft ( true temper 95 gram) and felt the g30s were better than the gmax because of the contact i made with the ball and swing speed. It was a great investment and i have taken at least 5 strokes off my round and gained 2 clubs in distance. i researched for months and have always liked mizuno irons but i am glad i went with the ping irons. I just bought a B65 putter and cant wait for warmer weather (and no snow) so i can keep playing. Now along with the irons got an all inclusive membership at our muni course which i always liked and now play whenever i want with a cart (even have my own key for when they are closed). My improvement could be from playing more often and focusing more as i am pretty obsessed with my game lately. The distance was definitely due to the irons though. Personally I would try several 7 irons and 5 irons and see which you prefer. Ping does have that cart where they can switch shafts and heads on the fly which is great. Good luck.

I have back problems and couldnt play over 12 holes before my back started hurting. It really affected my game. I started taking kratom and some orange juice which i bring with me when I play and now i can play 27 holes. I am tired afterwards yes but am able to function at least. The only alternative was going to be vicodin or a pain killer.

I can say my least favorite was when paidric harrington won the PGA championship and Jim Nance had to qualify it by saying that although TIGER wasnt playing this year.. What a jerk

I have been playing for 50 years. My father was a GC supt and i grew up on golf courses. I could play for free and used to caddy. Everything is self taught with my swing and i navigated through HS golf and a work league where I was very competitive. I am now 59 and my best move was to purchase a membership all inclusive at my muni course. This includes cart locker green fees free range and usga handicap. I played as reccently as last saturday 35 degrees and wet and through our so far mild winter including christmas and NY Day when the course was closed. ( the pro gave me my own cart key so I can take a cart even when the course is closed) I would play every day if the weather would permit and will certainly get my moneys worth (40 times last year) and a complete 2016 season all inclusive. My game has sharpened up and my goal is to break 80 by spring. My low round is 3 rounds of 84 last month. I have my eye on the club championship and our statewide keystone senior games. I am very excited about this coming year and the snow last night was very dissapointing. I played in low 30's with the ground so hard i had to use a fairway wood or iron off every tee and this wasnt a bad thing. I could concentrate on ball striking. Every shot had to be 30 yards short so it could bounce onto the green giving me lots of putting practice. I have recently discovered some "secrets" reading about hogans swing and pronation and supination. My ball path is low rising with lots of roll and stops almost dead on the green. My game really improved when my basement flooded and my insurance covered new irons for the clubs lost in the basement. I purchased a set of G30s after being fitted twice by two club fitters. I bought a range finder at an auction and use sky golf to record my stats and scores. This was also a big help. I cant wait for the weather to change and i can get back out there again.. I understand the sickness... Dan

I ended up having 2 inches taken off and feels great now. Thanks for everyones input

I live in Wilkes-Barre, an hour from Binghamton. Interested in anything in the future.

Well my right hand is on the steel now. I love the putter and the weight and ping will put the adjustable shaft on for 55.00? i think. I paid 85.00 for the putter but i hate to send it in. I was worried about balance and counter balance adjusting the shaft length. Anyway thanks for the input. Dan

I got a great deal at my pro shop for the above putter. The problem is it is 35 inches. I am 5'7" on it is too long. I can either cut the shaft or have Ping install the adjustable shaft on this putter. If i were to trim the shaft myself and regrip, i just trim from the top? I think i need about 32 inches when I am finished. Dan
