  1. Well, I actually meant to discuss the driver more...not so much me But, my club head speed is in the 125-30 range ..ball speed 190+ . Ex-ball player (just minors leagues before you ask.lol). You learn how to generate power and let it go all at the right moment.
  2. Over 300 in the air... the rest must be roll. The ball had gills!
  3. Well lets round up to an even 370... it was far Added about 35-40 yards!
  4. Recently, I got to give the new SQ Sumo 5000 (driver) a test drive. Now, I am King Cobra kind of guy...but I have never hit a ball that far and straight. Capped out at 369 yards. I guess I have to buy it now! Any other reviews out there on this club....??
  5. ANY NEED FOR A WEDGE OVER 60 DEGREES ? I know for I, 60 degree's is about the most loft I want in my bag. If I need more, it is simple to just open it up. I carried a 64 degree for while (just sat in my bag so I yanked it).
  6. Hey Matt. Yes, that is me. Wasn't quite tanked though..more playing the part Was a good time though for sure! You still have the card? David
  7. Just putting it out there... I have swung a couple different brands/models and just don’t feel comfortable with them. Not sure if a T.V. belongs on the end of a golf shaft?? They are funny to look at though Just my opinion... Wondering what the mass consensus is on them? (To be made fun of ...or to have fun with?...K.J. does ok with it)
  8. Hit it 1 time...and I was sold! These drivers are 2nd to none. Good bye Taylormade. Although, in all fairness, I have heard rumors that the new Burner is not half bad.
  9. If PRO V1 Did'nt exsist! What would be the #1 ball? After ProV1 balls, I would have to say Callaways are next in line for Me.
  10. I know everyone has their "favorite iron"....You know...the one you hit perfect every time! Is it a "head thing" though? I believe it may be.....We all have one club that we have solid confidence in.....which usually leads to a well struck ball! It is when we are questioning a club, that we tend to duff it! I love my 4 iron! (never fails) You??
  11. Hybrids are what it is all about now! If I had to use a 3 wood from the fair way or rough...Must be shallow faced.
  12. Here...Here... I like that comment. Yes... It is Always the CLUB...Never the Clubber!!
  13. Man...Just have fun. That is the key! Dont get frustrated.....and "when" you do smack a beauty shot....Take a moment and enjoy. Those are the shots that keep us all going back to the course. Other then that... I learned my technique by looking at golf magazines and noting the positions of the peoples hands feet and swing paths that they show in mag. Then golf...golf....golf. Just know this...once your hooked...man...your hooked! The quick route is lessons of course and letting your natural ability take over and grow. Welcome
  14. Draw is further in most cases..... As for Tiger Woods.... he may be speaking for him self. I dont think many of us have his club speed...in which it doesnt really matter which way the ball is going....but one thing is for certian....It is going a long way!
  15. Yea..Those are some interesting web commercials! at nikegolf.com (juice ball!!) However.....I am guessing if you launch any golf ball out of a cannon it will do some major damage on what ever it hits.... Just a guess!!

    Line on Ball

    Interesting, I just posted a thread about the Check-and-go gadget. (marks the center of the ball with a line around the entire ball) It has not impressed me. I go with line it up and hit it!
  17. I purchased a check-and-go...You know, the gadget that spins the golf ball at a high rate of speed and then marks the equator/center of the ball with a permanent marker. I am not a 100% about it. To tell the truth (in my opinion) it does not really make a difference. Any different or similar opinions?
  18. I am not sure how many of you play TIGER WOODS on Playstation or X BOX. But I found this while cruising ebay last week and played it with a bunch of my buddies this weekend. We had a Blast! They email you the game and you print it. Here is the link if you want to check it out. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...1717&rd;=1&rd;=1
  19. You know all the prior comments were GREAT advice! But....I will let you in on the ultimate trick to relax over the ball! BEER! O.K. but, all kidding aside. For Rec. golf , I find 2 drinks and i am loose! Very little over thinking and very relaxed. Any more then 2 beers and.....well....ha! I think we all know what happens then!
  20. The one piece of golf equipment you would ask Santa for this year is ?? # 1 on my list!!!!! Callaway ERC FUSION Driver! (9.5 / stiff) Santa..I've been a good boy!!
  21. DOES IT COME WITH A HEAD COVER!!!??? THAT IS MASSIVE!
  22. Flying Elbow is a VERY common swing flaw, that is tough to notice on your own. (but so are most swing flaws) I may have a slight case....every now and then. Any body have drills or advice on how to CLIP the wings off that FLYING ELBOW?

    Beat This

    I HAVE A WRENCH RIGHT NOW!!! And I am head to the water pump room!
  24. Was it the driver or him?? I may just have to test drive the Summo!
