Par4QC I’d like to take my g400 max and hit it side by side with the g430 max 10k. Problem is the different adapters so I couldn’t use the same shaft. But I’d still like to do it and see.

    Par4QC "Johnny, don't be so damn dumb!"
    "Johnny, you know better than that!"

    People have been telling me than all of my life and I still can't break 80.😥😬

        76, 40/36
        Nothing special yesterday with 5 bogies/1 birdie. Putts were still low, still coming up short.

        May be the last of the 80* days. Ended on a great note though.
        This is #18...200 yd. marker. Hole is 433, so 'caught one'. Then proceeded to hit the bunker pin high from there. 2 shots that normally are not in my bag. And never on the same day. Got up/down for the lone birdie of the day though.(Par 5 hole)

        Breaking 80 is overrated. I've shot one 78 and then 79 5 times and I still suck. 😞

          I shot 36-40-76 at White Pines GC in Swanton, Ohio today. Absolutely beautiful fall day, with temps in the upper 70's and about a 10 mph breeze to keep it comfortable. 9 GIR, 1 birdie, 31 putts.....

          Finally got to play a course other than the slumpbuster. Shot 41-41-82. Nothing special to report, did nothing outstanding but nothing horrible except one shank. Highlight was a 60 yard pitch to 6" for birdie on a par 5.

          Got out for 9 again today before work. Weather here has been unseasonably warm so I took advantage of another round. Probably tomorrow too and THEN I should be done for the season.

          Par 34, I shot 27. Birdied the first 6 holes. My 2 pars were lipped out 20 foot birdies. Still back with the G400 max, irons came back and just for shits the Ping Sigma 2 Tyne4 that resides in my basement has just had 2 crazy good rounds of putting. Amazing for a putter that I hate the sound of.

          Been in a downward trend since Desert Storm index has climbed almost 2 full points and is now the highest in 3 -4 years.

          today was a bit better, actually struck it quite well but it didn't translate into my score. Greens are wickedly firm and fast so 4 , three putts didnt help and for whatever reason the bunkers which are usually ok, were hard and lacking sand so in 3 green side bunkers , bounced into to ball each time whereas normally It's a strong suit of mine.

          Only one budgie along with 4 dubs and ended up 84

          I played with my pro's irons ( latest gen PXG) with MMT 80 stiff shafts and they are 2 degrees upright. This is not at all the fit I would put myself in as I prefer heavy steel and being shortish in stature have always choked down an inch on stand clubs or will play 2degrees flat.

          i had taken Some swings with these on the simulator and was hitting nice tight baby draws whereas my ball flight for decades has been a controlled fade. I hit these irons quite strait today and in a post round discussion it was felt that my OTT swing that results in me hitting a fade was counteracted by the upright lie. ......i'm not 100% sure but seems to make the most sense . I hit the upright lie clubs again and get on a lie board as well.

          i also find that I can swing much easier with the lighter MMT 80 so definitely contemplating a shaft change

            29 today. Slow start Birdie,par and a rare bogey… rock hard green after a poor drive. The 9 iron first bounce on the green was like I hit a cart path. No up and down. Went on to birdie the next 5 out of 6.

            Putter continues to amaze me. I’m taking no credit.

            That is a nice thought.
            Weather here is enjoyable. We can comfortably golf pretty much 8 months ( April through end of November) with the fringes being meh.
            I have talked about spending a couple months in winter in Zona, when the kids are done University maybe. Son wraps up his 4 year Computer Science degree in December. Daughter who got her BSc , just decided to do another degree. She wants to be a golf course Super and was accepted into the only Uni program up here that offers. So 2 more years of those bills to get away from.

              38 39 today (77). 14 of 14 fairways. 1 birdie, 6 bogeys for 5 over. I have no idea why I played so well. This game continues to baffle me.

                Typhoon Nice to see you back in the 70’s!

                Thanks John. Felt great. I won 3 of the 4 bets. We play quota points with 4 bets. 1st 6 holes, middle 6, last 6 and total. I made 29 points today on a quota of 20, so my new quota will go up before the next round.

                  Off the tee - great. 13/14 fairways.
                  Irons - great. 13 GIR.
                  Chipping - good. 3/6
                  Sand - great 1/1
                  Putting - 32 putts, made nothing over 4 feet. Ugh.

                    Slumpbuster, 41-41-82. Birdied 18 for the second round in a row. Still hitting some shanks from 50 ish yards.
                    Second round in a row where I played all hybrid set. Still not sold on the 9- pw- gw. And definitely don't like them for short chips when you have to get the ball up.

                    DonM Nope, 74. Tried to carry a bunker on the longest Par 4, missed it by 5 feet and cost me a double. Had a new putter that developed a little loose wiggle in the hosel area - bothered me. Got worse over the round, and by the end could move the head ever so slightly. Need to take that apart and figure it out.
