I too wear polarized prescription sunglasses and could not imagine playing without them. While researching the Oakley TargetLine glasses and the Dark Golf Prizm lenses I read that with polarized lenses you could loose some depth perception (this is preferrable to loosing balls by not being able to see where they land!). Anyway, while being fitted for a new pair of glasses, I asked the optometrist if polarization affected depth of perception. He said he'd not heard of it. Not conclusive proof I know but I thought it interesting and in keeping with my perceptions!

I have no doubt I would have visualized the same shot and had a crack but because of a complete lack of ability the result would have been magnificently less impressive!!

& Bionic AquaGrip Glove (Winter is coming!) UV Cooling Sleeves (Protection for my arms from the Aussie sun! BTW these are fantastic!) Replacement Spikes (FootJoy shoes just don't wear out!) Telescopic Golf Ball Scoop (Sick of leaving my balls in the water even when I can see them!!!) Orange Elim Tees (Think I finally worked out how to hit my 3 wood ... Yeh!)

Same ... glove, no ring, no watch. Rotate 2 gloves during my round. Can putt with a glove because it is more a case of visualization for me.

Hi, Hugh here. I have tried a few different apps ... GolfShot, Swing U, Golf GPS and VPAR. I am currently using an iPhone 6s with these apps and cannot recommend VPAR highly enough. It is by far and away the best of these apps. The GPS feature is very accurate although it does not always get the tee positions correct when switching between Black, Blue and White markers but this deficiency is easily overcome by using the ball position marker on the location of the tee box. It has several excellent features and the scorecard is easy to use. The only thing I really need is a suitable cradle to hold my iphone on my clicgear 3.5+ cart which does not involve using the umbrella holder as these 2 accessories need to be used in tandem to see the screen clearly when used in sunny conditions. Any suggestions would be most welcome!

I'm at the stage where I'm off to the side as much as I'm up the middle so I'm using a lot of OP's (Other Peoples) which have included a lot of Pro V1's, TM's and Callaways but they have disappeared just as quickly as they appeared so I don't rate them much. Bought a second hand set of Srixon irons so bought some Srixon Distance balls and found them to have a nice feel but alas they are slowly being replaced with OP's too. A friend of mine, who plays a lot more regularly than I, just gave me a couple of Bridgestone Tour B RX's and told me to try them as they are by far the best ball he has used. looking forward to giving them a try and see what they get replaced with. Hahahaha!!

I too have never had to retire a ball because it has been played too many holes. Many of them have found new homes, literally, as they end up in someones backyard or in their pool!! I can honestly say I have never split or cracked a ball but will definitely switch to a ball that I have no attachment (emotional or otherwise) when there is water in play as I have found that these balls are demagnitised to water, unlike a ball that I have purchased or one that I have found in my bag that had it's own little box.
