  2. Golf Shaft Retailers

    Other than Golfworks, is there other components distributors in Ottawa? I am looking to pick up a Diamana W+ series shaft, but Golfworks doesn't have them and Golftown (at least in Kanata) doesn't seem to carry that kind of stuff anymore. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

  3. iomic 2.3 Grips in our climate

    Anyone play these grips in our climate? It's obviously more humid than some other places. I'm just wondering how well these perform. I really like the feel of them as far as softness goes, but I'm unsure if I'd have a spinning club in my hand in the heat?
