  1. I have the Covert 1.0 driver, 15* 3 Wood & 5 Hybrid......All hit very straight.......keeping me in the fairway.
  2. Please pick me......need the Nike balls to go with my Nike Covert
  3. @ Edwin Watts Go ing Out of business sale in Tampa.....total cost $129 + tx - FootJoy Dryjoy Tours - FootJoy BOA Contours - 2 packs of Wooden Tees; 2 1/4 & 2 3/4 - 1 pack of softspikes - 1 Lamkin 3GEN grip
  4. Today was one of those rare days, I played the new Cobra Bio Cell irons w/ Dynalite 85 s shafts.....set to 1.5 * Flat. I shot an 88 at the same course that I had been shooting mid 90's. I started on #17(shotgun start) my drive was down the middle of the Par 5. Instead of pulling my 3 wood, I decided to pull the Cobra Bio Cell 4 iron. I butted a sweet shot to just inside the 150 down the middle of the fairway. The real interesting point is the shafts are Stiff. I normally hit Regular shafts. I had no idea I could hit stiff shafts this good.
  5. You may be able to trade them in on a different set. You may be a candidate for graphite shafts.
  6. Hey Cheap Trip, Did you pay any attention to the shaft? Possibly you went too stiff on the new irons, yielding shorter distances.
  7. Great point Billy Z, When I was a 10 Hcp, it made a lot of difference. Now 15 yrs after my wrist injury, I am a 15 to 19 Hcp so I a more concerned about hitting the green or getting close so I can run a pitch shot, or playing a high Flop over a bunker. I mostly use low comp balls that reduce the driver spin and get me more distance.
  8. Thanks flops tear, I have not yet tried the U6 or the U3 yet..........but I will!
  9. Gods point k-troop, as a Titleist ball tester, I get a sleeve to test every October. It seems that they do change the design a bit every year, but they alternate years with the NXT & DT Solo one year then the ProV1 & ProV1x the next.
  10. The RZN's will go great with my Covert Driver and 3 wood...even my Nike Method Drone putter.
  11. At the Edwin watts going out of business store in Tampa, I picked up 4 Bionic Golf Gloves, total cost was $51. At $25 each normally, that's a good buy. I use them as my arthritic fingers need the help. The leather is thicker and the pads keep me from having to squeeze tighter.
  12. Congrats teamroper60 ! fairways & greens to ya!
  13. If you have a Dick's close by, you may want to try the Maxfli line of golfballs. The U2/U3/U4/U6 line are all urethane covers for good touch around the greens.......and, speaking of green, they usually put them on sale. I have gotten the U2's for $10/doz and the U4x's for $20/doz. Just recently they had the U3's for $15/dozen. At those prices they are an exceptional deal!
  14. Been gaming the Bridgestone e6 and Maxfli U4x's Just got a dozen each of the Bridgestone B330RX & RXS.........they are definitely a terrific ball for one with a slower swing speed ....like me. Not sure if I'll continue with them as they are $45/dozen.
  15. I just finished the first 2 Seasons of "Hell On Wheels"..........awesome presentation of the battle to build the Railroad across the West. It is available on Netflix..
  16. Seals & Crofts on Sirius Radio.....
  17. Got mine yesterday.......my wife said "now what did you buy?"
  18. If you're going to play in the PGA, then you must know the Rules of Golf. If you do, then use em to your advantage.
  19. Nothing........went to Edwin Watts going out of business sale and their prices were anything but good....
  20. According to Taylormade, as can be seen if you select the link I poted earlier..... TaylorMade engineers have designed a radically new ball for competitive mid-handicappers who need more approach-shot spin. Project (a) is long off every club and feels great. Best, it helps you generate the extra spin you need to stop the ball closer to the hole, leaving you shorter putts to promote lower scores. Project (a)'s game-changing spin comes from SOFT TECH™. TaylorMade's new cast urethane cover that's specially formulated to be soft, durable, and very responsive. This ball is for those with average swing speeds that want more stop 7 grab around the green.......cost is set at $31.99
  21. Why can you get a graphite driver shaft for $50 or $350? Is there really that much difference in their mfg and performance?
  22. My Gamers are: Maxfli U2 & U4.......they are straight, long and have Urethane covers usally at $10 to $20/doz when on sale @ Dick's only Bridgestone e6......straight and pretty long, but roll on the greens @ $23/doz Bridgestone B330RX/B330RXS .....straight long and stop on the greens, but $45/doz
  23. I have a handicap of 19 and have been playing Maxfli U2's for $20/dozen but got them 1/2 price just before christmas...They are a 2 piece with Urethane cover. Good distance with the ability to stop on the green. I also have been playing the Bridgestone e6 which provides for straight drives and reasonable stopping on soft greens. I shot a 77 with these two weeks ago on a short course (5,700 yds) I tried the Bridgestone B330RX & B330RXS this weekend.....Still great distance and very straight. This put me in the fairway so I had a chance at the greens. I will probably go back to the Maxfli's U2, U3 or U4 as they are 2, 3 & 4 piece balls with Urethane covers and can usually be had for a very decent price. I hope this helps.
  24. How's this? Griffin Gate is a terrific course....played there years ago.

  25. You were selected to receive a free sleeve of our new Project (a) Golf Balls, the #1 Amateur Ball at the 2014 AT&T; Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. You can expect them to arrive in the next 2-3 weeks. When you get them, we suggest that you take them out on course and test them from 30-60 yards. Notice how the ball reacts when it lands and you'll discover why Project (a) was the choice of 83 Amateurs in the AT&T; Pebble Beach National Pro-Am including the eventual winner. We think you’ll be pleasantly surprised to see the extra spin you’ll be able to generate which will lead to closer proximity to the hole and hopefully lower scores! And you can get all of this without giving up the maximum distance you crave off the tee! We’d love to have your feedback! Be one of the first to review this new ball at http://taylormadegolf.com/balls/projecta.html - if you do, please note in your review that the balls were provided to you in connection with this promotion. Thanks! -TaylorMade Golf That was the email I got today........looking forward to testing them. Anyone get this?
