P.S. I can't believe you're moving on from the nike's after the glowing review...the two of you seemed so happy together :smile2:

I'm not too sure about the scratch's, but I don't think the tm cb's are any easier to hit from the rough than your nike's. My money would be with the J33's of the three, they're a bit different animal.

Dude, not everything's a conspiracy, wear you running shoes.

I agree, it's just too easy to hit to pass up. There's nothing like a toe miss (not towrds the toe, but like so far out there that you think you almost missed the thing) going 250+ with a little draw. And when you do catch the thing...well lets just say that I'm not running to test the COR or the 'characteristic time' anytime soon, I'd rather not know :confused: It's friggin' long, I'd have asked for Tiger's driver to be tested too. :finger: I didn't like the 410 at all though, for some reason.

The best person to answer would be the guy who fit you into those specs. Wedges are often times flatter than the rest of the set, but not always. It depends on how you swing and how you are going to use the particular wedge...(ie a full swing GW vs. flop shots etc.) Ask your fitter, and make sure that you're fit for the correct bounce as well as length lie...it just as important.

GAT in a forged head is great. Pick your applicable weight, they offer quite a few... I've had them in MP-33, Precept tour premium CB's, Titleist 690.cb's, and two year old cobra forged ss's's...worked great each time.

Officially, +/- 0.5 degrees, but in practice I've measured some that were off by as much as a full degree.

Yup till Febuary then back to Japan :tired: If you think thats crap, retail price is 1680.00 :) Not your price man, just 1300 in general...I was thinking about getting a set from you.

holy crap!

I saw one but didn't get to hit it...pretty sweet eh?

Same here

I think Cleveland owns this category until further notice...that said I'm playing RAC's now, but that because they were free...Cleveland has a grind/bounce/loft for everyone

Alright! I'd love to see tity's answer to the R7...I've always loved their stuff but they have a lot of ground to make up.

Hey man take it easy...

Lets hope so, it was bound to happen sooner or later, sooner would be better I think.

Here's something you may not have heard before on this note...more lines make you aim your putterhead left. It may seem strange at first, but it's true. I've been working with a laser alignment system for about four years now, and of the several hundred people I've fit for their putter, a few tendencies continue to show up. 1. All things being equal, (i.e. same head, shaft, offset) more lines (like two or even three lines) tend to make a player aim the putter to the left. There are always a few exceptions, but this is nearly always true. No lines, or just a dot tend to make the player aim to the right. 2. As in irons, more offset means more left, and less offset means more right. Again, this is assuming you hold all other variables the same. 3. More offset tends to make the player press or deloft the putterhead...again, not always, but almost, even if just a little. There are a few more generalities on this matter envolving lie, loft, and length, but these are the most relevant. These results again come from years of putter fitting, and while there are ALWAYS exceptions, these are usually true. Also, better players tend to work with a putter until they can get it working pretty good, but if the player is always aiming 12 inches left or right he has to make compensations, however slight, to square the clubface. This theory closely resembles dynamic iron life fitting, the incorrect setup will actually make you play worse. Don't believe me?? If you are in the area, drop me a line and I'll prove it(for free). Fitting is always important, but unfortunately how good the result is does in fact depend on the fitter. Always go with the most experienced fitter, (which is usually not the head pro or director of golf) at a green grass golf shop. PGA credentials are a big plus, but there are plenty of hack fitters that have passed a PAT, trust me on this one. Last two things, nobody is standard...if anyone tries to tell you 'hey man, waddaya know, you're std.!' the guy is an ass and he's trying to sell you something. For one thing, std's shift as you all know, but it just doen't work out that way. Customizing clubs is a free service from OEM's, they don't really want you playing stuff that doesn't fit. Lastly, when trying new stuff, try not to fit yourself...I know I know, 'I know my specs', so what? Any new club is going to be a bit different from the last, let someone else take a peek and tell you what they see...if the guy is full of crap you'll know.

I vote for starting the cartgirl thread here robbie! :cool:

The 680's rather than the 670's should solve your problem, as long as you don't mind blades as a change of pace.

I go with Mizuno, for several years they've had no equal.

Good to see that change is-a-comin'

You got that right! It's funny talking to someone from outside NorCAl and they don't have clue what you are saying! Do you remember the first time you heard it??

Ah...way to expensive then...how about declawed cat? :cool: Apparently, thats a no go too...'it's like cutting off his fingers' :mad:

No, just the headcover...if it was the club too it would have been kitty-stew time no matter what she said.
