Anyone using the check-go? http://www.golfclubreview.com/technasonic_check-go.htm

Let's pretend we have 2 driver heads with all the same specs except one has a 7* loft and the other one has a 10.5 loft. The 2 clubs have similar shafts but the 7* has a 48 inch shaft in it and the 10.5 has a 43 inch shaft in it. In your opinion which one will yield the highest launch angle?...

natgolfer. For years clubs have been matched using the swingweight method throughout the set. Now there seems to be a trend amongst clubmakers to match clubs by MOI. For the benefit of others and myself could you explain in laymen's terms what this all means. If possible I would also like you to...

Since most golfers have slicing/hooking problems why not ban the use of the driver. It is the less forgiving club in the bag and the so called experts all claim that the more lofted clubs impart less sidespin and more backspin therefore straighter shot. Did you know that standard drivers 20 years...

:) Dan . I have a quick question for you. Gary Hill is looking after rules, Colin Orr after instruction , a new guy(sorry I forget his name at the moment) after Carolina golf, Steve Karam after the Ottawa Golf tour and the retrieving of wedges from different ponds in the area. Is it in your plans...

Every year golfers all over the planet spend billions of dollar for new golf gear especially clubs. Your swing and your body did not come off an assembly line therefore it is a must that you have the lies of your clubs checked at leat once. Take a look at the following clubs.

Anybody ever tries those? I find it hard to hit a 5 -230 yards http://www.nickentgolf.com/pr_ir_3dxhyb-01_2.shtml http://www.nickentgolf.com/pr_ir_3dxhyb-02_2.shtml http://www.nickentgolf.com/pr_ir_3dxhyb-02_2.shtml#specs

99% of tour players use a steel shaft in their irons, it was in one of the latest golf magazines. __________________ Why?

If by any chance you attend a demo day and if you happen to hit one club really well BUY the demo. Same thing with a buddy's club. Chances are that if you order one just like it it won't play and feel just like it. Just my 0.02 cents worth. :not-worth

I have read many claims on different threads where the poster claims that too soft a shaft will make the ball go right. Providing that the torque is low and the same on all shafts compared why would that be?

I know this subject has been beaten to death but I came across this article and thought I would share it. I am sure our own Michael Pare with his old staff blades will get a kick out of it.:-) http://www.golftodaymagazine.com/1106/chronicles.htm The Fear Factor - Choosing the “Right” Irons...

Do you really need a square driver to increase MOI? read the following first article New Revelations on Driver Head MOI In case you haven’t heard, the whole reason you’re about to see the new “square shape" drivers hit the market in 2007 is the big companies’ effort to offer standard drivers...

Got the following from shoptalk: Does that mean that all other square head drivers will have to be pulled out of the market?

Do you believe original equipment clubs hit the ball farther than components clubs. If so please elaborate.

Wish I could take on the challenge:-) http://www.golfresource.net/newsletter/nevadabobs/nevadabobs.htm

For those of you who use the Check-Go could you run the following test and report the results. Place the ball in the check-go for a minute or so and then mark the ball on its horizontal axis. Stop. Repeat procedure. Let me know if the mark is in the same exact position. Thank you.

Year after year you hear and read claims about new clubs hittting it farther than the competitors' model. Component and OEM alike. Geek and SMT have gorillas at the other end of the stick. Nike claims that their new STR8 hits it farther than the R9. On top of that you have the low spin launch...
