Titleist, overall quality of everything is amazing. Footjoy, scotty cameron, vokey, stadry bags, amazing irons, woods are incredible in particular the tsr 3.

@jazzyjay4595 Жыл бұрын

Titleist is the most over hyped brand ever. Their irons aren’t even close to Srixon, Mizuno, or Miura and feel like a frying pan. Their woods are nothing close to taylorMade or Callaway woods. Their wedges are alright, I wish they felt softer like Cleveland’s. The putter is trash. Worst performing putters on putting simulators. And saying “oh well everyone on tour uses them” comparing a $400 putter to a circle T is like comparing a stock Ford Fiesta to the car Ken Block used to jump over buses with. The only thing they do great is a golf ball

@@aidangriffiths5075 I work with this equipment everyday. That’s like telling a mechanic that he’s wrong by calling range rover’s garbage. I got to test the t series months ago and everyone at this fitting day all complained about the same stuff with the irons. They feel like a trash can lid and don’t go anywhere. The putters are so inconsistent in build quality it’s insane. Swing weights are always off. Lie angle off. Lofts all over the place. Lengths inconsistent. That may not matter to your 12+ handicaps but that’s a big deal in my space of the golf world.

After watching your break 75 with Charlie Hull I was glued to my first ever women's golf tournament and was blown away by the skill and professionalism. So impressive! Thank you for inspiring me to watch. On another note: most golfers do not get the opportunity to try out lots of different brands of clubs on the course and rely on purchases based on someone like you giving a decent review and then sticking with them. If they're not the best looking on the course in two years time, so what. Excellent podcast as always. Keep them coming.

Sadly that’s one of the problems these days, demo club is a 7 iron or similar. Problem is sheer cost can you imagine making say three irons available for 80% of the sets you see in a decently stocked shop. Even if they have a driving range struggle to get to use more than one iron

Has often been said pro ladies play like the majority of male amateurs regarding length. Although some women becoming big hitters now. As a result of their their shot length they are very good to study their course management. As most male pro’s hit shirt clubs into green it’s a totally different ball game for them

For the guy whose friends are ruining his time on the course, I'd say def play rounds on your own! I prefer golf that way though most people wouldn't like it. I'm not out there for the drinking and shenanigans and cranking music from my wireless speaker, etc. I'm in a league, so I'm around that often enough but I prefer to focus on golf when I'm golfing. For rounds on my own, I play one ball against the other so I end up getting twice the practice and it's truly quality time. But, yeah, friends and uncomfortable groups can suck the life right out of the blessed/cursed game.

Have the courage to talk with your friend about your concerns. If they aren't bothered by it thats ok. Try signing up for a few smaller Net tournaments and meet some people. It's ok if people don't take the sport as serious as most of us. Sad that they aren't learning the proper edict and course management but unless you're comfortable addressing that move on. Look up STATE skills from Crucial Conversations. Could give you a format to try that will help with this and dozens of harder conversations. In the end you'll feel better and strengthen relationships with the people you love in your circle. Keep swinging!

@PeanOutside Жыл бұрын

Titleist for almost everything, only grey area is driver but even that is close to or the top with the new version. The irons, wedges, and putter are simply the best around, then there's the ball, and on top of that I think the release schedule is also the best, love that it's not every year, actually makes you want them more, and because of the way they do it, it is actually a tough choice between the new ones and getting a deal on the prior version. Ya it's just simply Titleist...
