Forum: Other Equipment

Hi guys, I'm looking at purchasing one after seeing a couple of playing partners using them. Was wondering do you need to pay a subscription fee for using? I assume they use GPS, and have downloadable courses. Any advice or insight would be appreciated. Thanks.

Just ordered this unit , my first golf gps , I hope it's good ,if anyone has any info on this please feel free to comment

Has anyone locally used this unit, I notice that there are quite a few courses in our area that can be downloaded. Any negatives or thoughts. Thanks

... and makes me think that I'm looking at a golf game for the original Nintendo. http://garmin.blogs.com/pr/2009/01/garmin-goes-gol.html?activeBranchId=newsroom Looks a little lame, but there's only one picture. Garmin usually has pretty solid GPS products, so hopefully there's more than...

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...

I recently won a Garmin Nuvi GPS and I was wondering if anyone has tried installing golf related applications through the POI tool on one of these devices? I have tried the Intelli and BBGPSGolf on my bberry, but if I could load a golf course map on my garmin it would be much better. Does...

Anyone try a pair of Geox shoes? Supposed to be waterproof and breathable. Only place that sells them seems to be GT and some googling seems to suggest they are in the Ecco category of premium golf shoe. Just wondering if anyone has given them a try.

Dont know where else to start this. I am having a problem with glove wear. It always wears only in my thumb (right at the joint) and usually wears after about 5 games or so. What could cause this? Would it be from how hard I grip the club? It is just another expense that I would like to...

Anybody Have any experience with glow in the dark golf balls I just bought one with a glow stick for the last two holes and just want to hear what everybodys experience is with them

Yay or nay? Link As long as they are comfortable, keep my feet dry and I'm not slipping all over the place; I will buy one of these in black/white. The ones Fred Couples wears are hard on my eyes. :covereyes

I recently purchased a new phone.. the Google Android... HTC Dream, whatever you want to call it. I am trying to find a good golf app with GPS capability that has some of the local courses mapped. I see there has been some good work done for IntelliGolf which does not appear to be compatible...

I just got an iphone and am now looking for a golf application that will give me the yardages while I am on the course. What are good applications for not a ton of money. Any suggestions? Thanks

Hi there. Wondering if anyone can recommend a golf bag that would work well with oversize grips and that can be mounted to a Sun Mountain push cart and be used on a power cart? I currently have a Datrek bag which is probably close to 5-6 years old that has full length dividers, but what happens...

I need a new zipper for my Callaway cart bag, the cooler side pocket will not properly hold my choice of beverages... lol Does anyone know a place in Ottawa who might be able to replace the zipper with a new one? The side cooler pocket is quite large. Thanks

http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250478514481&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT I like this bag, but I'd like to know if 6 holes is going to be enough to fit 14 clubs. If it's going to be too crowded in there, I'll have to get the more expensive modern bag: ...

So while I was in Arizona, I picked up a dozen Nike One Platinums and a dozen ProV1's. These were both the newest offerings from each company. I found the Nike One Platinum to be deeper off the tee than the ProV1, but the ProV1 definitely spun better on iron shots and wedge shots from the...

Just an idea I had folks. :) What are you doing with all the found/used golf balls you have ??? :-) I have just found out I have WAY WAY too many :eek: I have also found that I can not play any of the high performance balls I have gathered :( I thought that maybe we could trade using the forum....

This past year I used a mix of balls (Dunlop LOCO, Maxfli Revolution Solid, Maxfli Noodle Long and Soft). I just bought about 6 dozen of these from knetgolf as they were listed for 'high handcappers'. Well 30 rounds later, I left them all over the Ottawa valley. Also lost everything else I found...

Never saw a topic on this but any recommendations,too many to choose from..recently had one that extended to 12 feet but was so darn awkward to close up..not that I use it often..lol:)

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...

Looking at getting some Pro V1's from 2008 and I've read a few things about shelf life of the "New Age" balls not really being a concern as long as the temperatures where they are stored is not a concern. Any opinions ???

My Golf Spy is great for these kinds of tests and it opened my eyes and made me think I may be using the wrong kind of ball. Unbiased tests are best. https://mygolfspy.com/most-wanted-golf-ball/

i calculate i will play 50 rounds in 2010. i will lose 3 balls on average per round (to water/leaves/sun/woods/theft) 150/12 = 12 dozen golf balls needed for this year. how many golf balls do you go through per year?

Hey guys! The best ball is the one that suits to your game!!! I've tried much of those actually available on the market. I still play with the old Strata Professionnal 90. Distance isn't everything if you are not able to control it and you fly over the pin at each shots. You will...

I'm about to buy my stock of balls for this upcoming season and I primarily play either TP Reds or Pro V1 392's. However i'm trying to find a ball to play that still performs well and has a soft feel when my game is off and I tend to maybe lose a few balls around. Any favourites out there?

Hey Guys I was wondering last weekend i went to play a round of golf after 3 weeks off, the first 4 holes i was slicing really bad, but i decide to change my golf ball from Calaway for a Strata ball . Using the Strata ball i never slice the reminding 14 holes, maybe it is in my head but is it...

Over 300 used golf balls. Asking $100.

Just like to get some opinions on value golf balls. Something that's a good mix of feel and distance + durability. Most of the time I play the Pinnacle Exception. Top Flite? A non-premium Titleist? Just like some opinions.

Golf Balls Just wondering what everyone uses.... Brand\Model... What do you love about them, what do you hate about them? I personally like the Nike Distance Control, but I've had a hard time finding them anywhere....so I'm about to try the Titleist HVC Tour.

Wondering what balls people play and their hcp.... I was a 4.2hcp last year but I havent kept track this year due to work, new house...and not much time to play. I will be getting a membership next year.. I tried the Srixon Z-UR-S and loved it, nice med-high flight, goes long off the driver...

I started off the year using Pro V1x as my day to day ball, but as a result of a bad stretch of golf,which saw me lose 7 balls in one round :rolleyes, I bought some Top Flites. My game has returned to a somewhat normal state of late, and the only shot I cannot hit with these balls is the low skip...

My brother in law says he likes Rhino balls... I can only assume that these are what he is talking about.. http://www.dealsdirect.com.au/p/golf-balls-rhino-rifle-titanium-pack-15/ However, I would hate to order them from Australia... Are these the balls John uses, and if so... does anyone...

Anyone use one these rangefinders? How would you rate it? Thanks.

Hi everyone I am looking to build a full size golf cage in my back yard with netting. does anyone know where i can buy netting for this exact purpose. im thinking like 12 feet high by 12 feet wide by 15 feet deep. thanks

Any recommendation for a golf GPS App for a BB Storm 2? Golf Logix seems to be the preferred, but before I purchase and download, I want to know what others use.

Are they worth it, do they help?

Hey guys---I remember last year there were folks looking for retailer of knickers and argyle designs for golf :-) check out www.golfknickers.com I did actually see an outfit--decent quality

Anyone using a subscription website to manage their golf leagues played at multiple courses? I am currently evaluating NetGolfLeague.com. Seems pretty good and cheap - U$150/year regardless of size of league. Would like to know what others are using. Thanks.

Where can someone purchase a golf mat in Ottawa or at least Canada? New mat only. Thanks

Does anyone know of any companies that manufacture a high impact golf netting suitable for a back yard "range?" Looking for a piece that is 10' by 10.' Thanks in advance.

Bought 3 new golf shirts today(stupid weather makes me spend money instead of golfing :hissyfit:). Weird thing is they are all different sizes. Hollas shirt=small, adidas=medium and puma=large. It's like some brands totally ignore bigger or smaller people. I"m not a big guy and wear large in...

I'm looking for a place to get approx 10 golf shirts for a match play tournament I'm organizing. I'd like our team to all wear the same shirt. Essentially looking for a dri-fit type fabric and price as to be below 35.00$. I don't need any logos or anything. If you know of a good spot let me...

Hi all, It is at about this time every year that I think about updating my golf wardrobe, and this year is no exception. My question is fairly simple. In your experience, where are the best places in town to look for relatively inexpensive, but good, stylish golf shirts ? By 'relatively...
