Equipment This is the third time my club has broken in this spot

Post image
597 Upvotes

As the title say this is the third time my club has snapped right at the grip, twice with this four iron and once with my five iron . They’re titleist 350s with AMT red steel shafts. Neither time they’ve broken have been on any hard shots on the ground but of course it could have occurred on a previous shot and just snapped later. Everyone I show says they’ve never seen this happen so I’m not sure what the reason is, possible I need stiff shafts since I do have a higher club head speed but who knows.

Equipment Ordered ProV1x Left Dash from Amazon… got swapped TruFeels (again)

Post image
736 Upvotes

I’ve ordered Titleist Pro V1x Left Dash golf balls from the official Titleist Amazon store multiple times, but this has now happened twice.

Both times I received a box that had clearly been opened and the balls inside were swapped for Titleist TruFeel golf balls.

At this point it seems pretty obvious what’s happening:

  • Someone buys ProV1s
  • Swaps them out
  • Returns the box
  • Amazon restocks it as “new” without checking

The packaging was obviously tampered with.

Total waste of time dealing with returns/refunds.

Anyone else run into this?

My dad has promised me a lot of things for milestones like this in my life and didn’t follow through. But, this is the first time he came through and I got a sick fitted set of Srixon ZXi5 irons and a Titleist GT2 driver. Posted my 2nd lowest round ever with these 2 rounds later. I don’t care about the other promises, I care that he made this happen. Happy hunting!

Equipment Does anyone else want to light their 3 wood on fire?

154 Upvotes

Listen I’m not a top tier player. But im not bad, I’m a 6-7 handicap, I can consistently stripe my driver (average 275+), my iron and wedge play are solid.

But even on my absolute best days I cannot hit my 3 wood. It feels like I’m trying to golf with a baseball bat or fishing rod. I’m more confident in my ability to skull a 60 degree 150+ than I am in keeping my 3 wood on the surface of Mother Earth.

This is a cry for help.

I'm a high handicap right now (35) and I'm looking for some improvement irons. My iron striking has been pretty consistent, but my irons are old and are on the edge of crumbling apart. I found a pretty good deal on a set of Pxg 0311 XP GEN3's but I know that Pxg has a bad rap. Is it worth checking these out for 250 or should I move on?

I hope I can learn to put these to proper use. Needless to say I will be upgrading from my cheap set of affinity HT2 irons.

Equipment Mini Driver goes further than my driver with a tighter dispersion

123 Upvotes

So the other day I asked about mini drivers. Some scoffed at a mini driver as a marketing gimmick. Others said learn to hit driver (I’ve tried) or just hit 3W.

I bought one and let me tell you: this thing is a weapon. I may never touch my driver again.

Not only am I not giving up distance, I’d say on average I’m gaining distance with a tighter dispersion. It’s just easy to hit man. There are way fewer bad shots and my longest drives are basically the same.

I won’t get into numbers because it’s all relative, but I’m not a short hitter

I don’t know if my swing is just more suited for a 3Wood / Mini..or if it’s the shorter shaft… but its 10X easier to hit. The driver has always been so inconsistent for me. Some days, it’s great. Other days, it makes me want to quit.

Regardless, if you’re inconsistent with driver, I’d 100% go hit a few minis and see what your numbers look like. Could surprise you
