Forum: Other Equipment

a few years ago during golftown's regrip event, I went and changed all my clubs to the golf pride multi compound based on a recommendation from a forum member. well ... it's the time again ... was just wondering what you guys were using / any recommendations? anything "new" in the grip...

Anyone know where I can get customized stitching or engravement on a Leather Pro-like Staff Bag? I assume I can go to a leather specialist or Tailor? Let me know. Thanks.

Hi all, I am new here and would like to warn all of the terrible company Zelocity from Scottsdale, AZ. I bought a pureflight unit from them and could never get it to work. There is some bug or glitch in the software. Even though I wanted to use it for baseball, its the same unit for golf. Sean...

Check them out on this link, the new FT-9 and the BB Diablo http://www.mygolfspy.com/callaway-ft-9-big-bertha-diablo-drivers-pics/

Does anyone know of any free golf gps systems? Or any cheap ones to purchase online? Thanks guys! Micheal,

Hey guys--dropped ito the Calloway store in Vegas this morning---they were selling a 15 pack of D2 for 14.99---anyone know what they are at home----someone will probably want to kill me but I am just curious :-)

I had been looking for a rangefinder for a few months. I thought I would wait after christmas to see if there were any deals. I saw one ad on ebay which was selling a brand new Bushnell Pro 1600 Tournament edition for $299 US + 29.99 shipping USPS to Canada. That was the best deal on ebay I found...

Hey guys, just wondered if anyone has experimented with this on their putter. Tried one at GT. Thinking about putting it on my backup putter. Scott

Trying to decide which one to go with. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

Does anyone use/endorse those gizmos that are used to balance one's golf balls (e.g. http://www.rangergolf.com/images/accessories/checkgo.htm) If so, do they work and worth the money? Cheers Mike

I have been reading quite a bit on golf balls but don't know what to get. I am not the type to drop $5 for ProVs/HX Tours/B-330s nor my golf skills warrants such a high end ball. Most likely, i will buy recycled balls from Ebay. The last batch i bought, Nike Mojo's, they weren't all that great. ...

Been thinking about getting one for awhile, what would you people suggest..? Is there really a need for a 300-400$ model I mean are there actual benefits to picking out a target 900 some odd yards away? Or can one get away with a lower end model? Suggestions?

Hey all, Special buy for Leaderboard members until Sunday. 2 for 1, no limit, on the new Z-Star and Z-StarX from Srixon. Hard to beat a premium ball for 1/2 price.

Golf shirts for the colour blind. :eek: Stick to golf Steve... http://www.elksworld.com/

I'm interesting in buying either one .. does anyone have comments, is it useful, does it work well ? Does it have all of the local Kanata/ Ottawa courses ? CDN, Loch March, Cedarhill, Greensmere... Thanks J

Golftown used to have clearance item sections for Clubs & Shoes. They don't have them anymore. Anybody know what they do with their clearance stuff now? Anybody know of any discount/clearance stores or websites where you can get deals on shoes, etc?

any opinions on travel bags hard and soft ,obviously hard would be more protective but has anyone been using soft cases and have positive or negative feedback to provide ? also does anyone know any places that rent them in the Ottawa area ? found one in GTA but they don't ship /thx

I'm thinking of replacing my current stand bag during boxing day sales with a new stand bag. I know they are not the greatest on Clicgear carts but I'd like to get a new stand bag for at the range, in my garage, in parking lots etc. I currently have a TM stand bag but the legs are starting to...

so I bought the M3. I should have it in a few days. From the pictures below you can see that the little flip on the back has to be open to enable the GPS. How and I supposed to walk around with this thing for 4-5 hours and keep that flip open? If I get a case for it and clip it to the bag I...

Last bag broke and I now have a $100 credit towards a new bag at Golf Town. With the current Trade-in Promo, you can say I have $125 worth of credit (got a super old bag lying around). What bag would you recommend? Stand bags with > 10 dividers is preferred but a Cart bag would also be okay if...

Sorry if this is in the wrong section, wasnt sure since I'm not real looking to discuss the balls themselves. I found a guy on craigs list who is selling a dozen balls for $2 so I was thinking... balls never go bad and since I am not good enough to tell the dif between a prov1 or a xl3000 why...

I had heard of Nike making black golf balls, and for my golf trip last month I tried to find some just for the fun of it. Couldn't find any though.

When things are going well, I love pulling out a new ProV for my round but I have never really given the X model any love. Looking for opinions and/or comparions of the 2...

How did everyone make out over Christmas? Personally it was very good for me. Wife got me a new set of Nike Ignite 2 irons (I had actually picked them out a month before)for Christmas and I received a sleeve of ProV1s from a relative. I also managed to pick up a crap load of stuff on...

As a long-time Pro V1 user, I would not have thought it likely that I would be inclined to change to another brand of ball. I was wrong. This morning a friend of mine lent me one of the new Wilson Staff 50/50 balls. Wow. What a discovery. The ball has a soft feel, and rockets off both woods...

Looking for some recommendations for lower priced sunglasses that are suitable for golf. I'm one of those guys who loses sunglasses or boots them down the driveway (buggering up the lenses) a few times a year so I can't spend a lot of cash. I find the usual cheapo drug store sunglasses fine...

Anyone know somewhere in Canada (or will ship to Canada) that I can get a Proactive GPS mount for my SG-5 on my Clicgear? Alternatively, anyone know any other ones that I can source that are good? http://www.tgw.com/customer/category/product.jsp/SUBCATEGORY_ID/11083/refScid/1360

If you want to try a good, cheap, durable, good looking ball, try the Wilson staff 50 ball....Very soft to touch, feels good off the club, putts well and is cheap!!!!!! My two cents worth anyway.... have a good day..:-)

Any other forum users with Sky Caddies (or not) signed up with Club SG? Its fun, and I can see having a network of friends would be great, you can even follow their rounds, hole by hole, live I think. A must see for any skycaddie SG user: http://clubsg.skygolf.com/

I just received my shipment of golf balls (Tour iX) that I plan on using this season and I'm wondering if I should change the colour of the sharpie I use to mark my ball. I've been using blue for the last few seasons, because we all know that blue is a cool colour. However, it's not a...

http://www.torontogolfnuts.com/showthread.php?t=27291 It appears that the Bushnell Tour V2 is the same thing as the Bushnell Scout 1000. We golfers are just paying more because it's assumed we have more money than hunters. If the two products are the same, I'm thinking of buying a Camo...

Played a pile of holes today, each with 3 balls: 1. Bridgestone B 330 S 2. Titleist Pro V1 X 3. Topflite 3000 "Super Long" While there were obvious exceptions due to quality of contact, a couple of patterns occurred: 1. Off the DRIVER - The Pro V1 X was consistently the longest, Topflite...

Did anyone here actually try these balls ? what did you think about it?

I am interested in getting contact information for a source to order a boonie hat like the one Ben wore at Colonial. Saw a www.tourstop.com item but they only show the PING hat. Any local clubs in the Ottawa area stock these? Thanks in advance. Poke-n-SC

OK it is not going to work in a golf Sim but for the real green stuff this will be invaluable tech to lower the handicap: http://www.gameyourgame.com/#!/

In your opinion which is better? Is the SM V1 worth the extra bones? Better Made? Reason is the Bag Boy Express is on sale and I am in the market for a push cart. Only ever looked at the Sun Mountain. Thoughts? Oh and if anyone has one for sale Pm me too! Thanks

I've been playing the Dunlop Loco "Bite" ball, on and off this season. They seem to be a decent deal for the price ($15/box at SuperStore). My question is, have any of you golfers tried this ball?? Are you able to get back spin and "suck" the ball back a few feet when you hit the green?? I...

I just bought a vintage Ping Anser putter for my second bag and decided to go with one of these new grips, the Fatso 5.0, and so far I must say I am very impressed. The putter is great (I have an Anser in my main bag) but I can really tell the difference that this new grip is making and so early...

hi all, i would like to start marking my balls(maybe my putting will improve:lol2 ) can someone tell me the ratio of salt/water? is it epsome salt or regular salt? thanks.

I'm wondering which of you purchase refurbished or refinished ProV1 golf balls and more specifically, from where. I recently found one at my course and played a few holes with it, the difference is amazing. I just can't afford them brand new! :( Are the used ones actually as good as I've read?...

Received a box of these "Super Long" Dunlop Loco's for Christmas, played 7 rounds this year and have allready broken 3 of them. I don't know if I got a bad batch but I don't think i have ever broken golf balls before. Anyone else find this happening with these balls.

Here is my issue. I bought the R7 CGB Max Driver, 3,5 & 7 woods at GT. The driver head cover is a great magnetic headcover that goes on and comes off real easy... the small TM grey headcovers for the 3,5 & 7 are all the same size and almost impossible to put on the 3 wood, difficult to put on...

I used the BBGPS golf app a week or two ago at Outaouais and have to say it was very good. It was fast and accurate (My opponent had a Bushnell and I was within a yard or two all day of his readings) I was very impressed by this free program and recommend it for anyone with a Blackberry.

I went to a launch monitor and was told that I should switch to a lower compression ball due to my ball speed. Off the driver it was around 130 mph. I have tried the Super Loco but I was wondering if anyone else has tried others for example, Wilson Jack, Titleist DT spin, Noodle... I have tried...

So today at the Players I noticed a few different things. I noticed a lot of putts were rolling cross-axis of the equator. Sergio in particular sunk a few where the ball was not rolling along the equator of the ball. I noticed early in the round, Mickelson was rolling his the same way, then for...

I just got my 1st pair of custom ordered shoes. I went with footjoy myjoy icon asymmetrical black on black cayman gator with white wax laces. I didn't go for any custom initials or symbols, I really only ordered them because I am a size 12.5 and that was the only way I could get that size. I...
