Gus, Mr.A did post though. 😉
To be clear we are talking about the "friend", not TGF.
Steve has a lot of friends in the industry.
Trust all is well w/you.

Par, Sinister Golf had a driver review, Agent Orange, on Mygolfspy a few years back.
A google search will show it.
I will give you this though - ThatGolfGuy appears to have the same sense of humor as Steve.
And No, I do not think they are the same but it makes sense that they would know each other given the geo. location.

    I know about Shawn and his driver heads, he was also on the old FGI. Just remembering back a couple weeks ago when Steve mentioned new co. and 'partners'. And, I do think they get along, maybe not as famously as Steve and Mike Tait though; no two could ever get along that well.

    Would it have anything to do with the "surprise" announcement slated to be the first on this site ?
    I think so.
    We saw the flash now...........Wait for the sound of thunder gets closer before the rain.

    Damn we are good as a group for charade.

    Good to know, I'm looking at a driver that has a moveable 12 gram screw so glad to hear it will actually have some impact. I just remember Tait saying it wouldn't matter. Maybe because he didn't have a driver out with moveable weights, or maybe because at that time we were talking about smaller amounts of weight.

      Very well could be, but as I said to Rob Steve is not shy and would bring to the forum himself, well at least normally. He is getting long in the tooth now.

      Weight placement does influence ball flight, but only if you allow it to. In other words the golfer can over ride it with their swing. The way weight bias works so I'm told is it moves the center of gravity more towards the weight side.

      So, more weight towards the heel moves the COG towards the heel essentially allowing for more of the face to act similar to a toe strike thus 'gearing' the ball back to the left. But as I mentioned if you leave that face wide open with an out to in swing no amount of weight placement will help.

      Would that be (with a 12 gram weight) the new Cobra F7 driver that will be out in mid January? That driver has 3 weight ports (two 2 gram weights and a 12 gram weight). You can move the 12 gram weight front, back or heel to change the ball flight from lower, higher and draw. I'll be demoing it when it comes out.

      Still own the Amp Cell and Bio Cell and have both set to max loft for most closed face angle, but would like to be able to have the ability to move the weight to the heel for more draw bias help.

        All things being equal moving weight around on modern drivers works. Now a lousy swing can certainly counter act this to a certain degree which is why for many years I have been saying to fitters that you can't properly fit this type player. They must have a semblance of a repeating swing.

          No actually looking at an old Callaway Razr Fit Extreme. I like that the face can be opened 2.5 and with the 12 gram weight in the toe hope for a fade machine.

          Just copy the Triton....seems to be getting a lot of press....

          Oh, make sure u let the usga in on it! Hahaha

            Bangoman Gary a 10 to14 gram sliding weight is going to influence ball flight.

            I think someone else who I won't mention said 40g. 😉

              Ridiculous! Yeah, I use to put 40 strips of lead tape on the toe for that soft fade! LOL

              Who said it? Initials will be good enough. If it is who I think it is....I will let you in on something you may have overlooked.
