  1. as you may have seen in another thread, i got fitted at ping today, and apparently the perfect setup for me is a G15 10.5 X stiff 69 gram shaft with instructions at the bottom of the club fitting page to: "Digitally Loft the Driver as close to 10.5 Degrees as Possible" What does it mean to "digitally loft the driver"? and why does it cost me extra cash?
  2. So, I started hitting balls at my local muni today, and decided to check the stuff at the Ping tent down the line. The guy had me take 5 swings with my nike 5900 square diamana blue x 8.5* driver, so i did, and was hitting it decently (lower than i want), and told him that i have been having trouble with the low lefts. he said he could concoct a driver for me in no time. so i started with a 9.5 X stiff - hit some low lefts, guy works me all the way up to a 13.5* driver! obviously i was skying the hell out of it by then, but why the heck not if it was for the sake of my game (and his quota).. so after some more testing, he works me out to a 10.5* with a UST AXIVcore red 69X. the launch was around 11* with 2800 spin rate. the club felt great. BUT I didnt want to get swindled. Thats why i need you guys to do the swindling for me. Does this sound right? a high loft like 10.5 with such a stiff high-kick shaft? BTW my swing speed is around 110-114 and was carrying that thing anywhere from 260-280. SHOULD I BUY IT??? ANYONE ELSE OUT THERE HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH THE CLUB OR SIMILAR LAUNCH CHARACTERISTICS WITH A RECOMMENDATION? thanks!
  3. ya he seems like he would be an ass.. i was totally rooting against him in the match play.
  4. 176 into the wind, hit a knock down draw, carved into a back pin about 5 feet and made the putt! awesome times!
  5. if Jack and Tiger squared off for 20 years in todays tour, i would say tiger, but the tour of yesteryear would have to go to jack...
  6. not working now unfortunately, just graduated from bentley, looking to find something in finance soon!
