Ok, I've run out of the now-discontinued Smart Core straight distance balls, and have tried and rejected the distance version of the Titleist NXT - I've found it releases waaaayyyy too much on the green. So...what are your recommendations for a ball under $40 per dozen that gives reasonable...

I must say, I tried out the B330 and it felt like hitting a rock. Then I got a sleeve of B330-S and they were awesome. So, now I'm playing the TP Red and also the B-330S. :-) :thumbsup

It's not what you think. I am working my way through Pelz's Putting Bible and he writes about floating a ball in salt water - epsom salts and Jet Dry - to find the balance of the ball - theory is heavy end will sink and you mark the top. I read Covenant's "Floaters" thread from 2004 but my...

Well I hate iron covers too but take a look.. I played 75+ rounds this year with these irons and they still look great!

Hey does anyone know much about these indoor outdoor putting greens? I'm thinking about picking the following one up from Home Depot for winter practice. ...

Has anyone tried the latest Bridgestone balls featured in their fitting commercials? The commercial makes some pretty bold claims…like some players saying they're getting like 18 additional yards over a Pro V1. I use Pro Vs and really like them but I wouldn't mind getting more distance from...

I figured now would be a good time to trial some new balls for when they ultimately get discontinued and closed out, so I picked of a sleeve each of the Tour iX and TP Red to give them a whirl. Now that I've played a few rounds, here's the head to head comparison. 1. Driver distance. Slight...

Looking for a review. Anyone have first hand knowledge on this bag? Gonna sell my stand bag cause I have to cart it from now one. Would love some feedback. It's cheaper then the Ogio Atlas which is my second choice.

It's free, go get it! http://www.masters.org/en_US/interactive/mobile/iphone.html

I have had a Bushnell 1500 tournament edition, which I have been very satisfied with till midway through the last season. Sometime last year, it started getting more difficult to acquire the pin from more than 130 yards out. It tended to pick up other things around the same area. I read up on...

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

I just bought a new pair ofAdidas Tour 360 ATV to replace my old Tour 360 that I had for the past 4 years.My old 360 are the best golf shoes I've ever had!!!! Even after 4 years they'restill not taking in any water, I play about 40-50 rounds a year, now they'restarting to look like crap so it time...

I have a Bushnell laser range finder and it uses the CR2 battery that is pretty expensive ($18) but I was told at The Source that they offer a replacement warranty for it so I bought it. I am very glad I did since less than 1 year later I needed to replace it (they last about a year depending on...

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...

Seeing how well the XL 2000 performs for me I was thinking of trying some other two piece balls that are oriented more towards spin. I know the new Top-Flite Z-Balata is the same as the XL 2000 E.S. but was looking at perhaps the Noodle Rotini, Loco Bite, Pinnacle Exception. Tried the NXT Tour and...

Just wondering what the thoughts are about this driver. The reason being is that I am in the market for a new driver and am considering going to a square driver. I currently have the Titleist 905R with a Graffaloy Prolaunch Red S. Here is the thing, I hit a draw and when things go bad a hook. I...

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.

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

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...

Anyone swear by these to protect their precious irons, or are they just more trouble than they are worth on the course? If you use them, which kind did you get? At Golf Town, I've seen neoprene, clear plastic and hard plastic with a little grip thing at the bottom which looks like it would...

Hey all. My wife who gets in only 10/15 rounds a year had her cart fall apart. It's not worth it to buy one of those new 3-wheelers that are all the rage but maybe somebody has a two-wheeler around that's not being used at all? That I could get for a reasonable price. :P Thanks, George

Are these things worth it for playing in the rain? I've got Thurs.Fri off and i'l lbe damned if i'm not playing 3-4 rounds and one on Saturday as well!

Hi All, Just wanted to drop a note about my golf apparel blog, www.chapeaunoirgolf.com. Dan has graciously added me to his links page, and this past week has been great - I have had a nearly two thousand page views in the last couple of days. If you haven't already, you're invited to come check...

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...

Would you guys try these balls? I might suggest these to one of my buddies...he has a heck of a hard time following his ball. http://www.teamredgolf.com/BlogsForum/AllBlogs/tabid/86/mctl/ArticleView/ModuleId/2380/articleId/572/Tour-Yellow.aspx

I just bought one of these from Ebay for my sky Caddie http://www.caddiebuddy.com/caddie-buddy Looking forward to reviewing it once it arrives.

Hi, Going to play a work golf tournament which is a team best ball event. No serious rules but rather just for fun. So.... I was thinking of picking up a 3 pack of some golf balls that would get me the most possible distance off the tee. I don't care about feel on approach shots or...

I have been using the Bushnell Neo for the last two season and for the money it is a great GPS but I would like one that shows the layout of the hole and different points on the hole such as the tee line, bunkers etc. With the Neo you can add 4 points but I find that a pain to do especially when...

anyone know of an ipad app that you can stand on one location (ie ball) and click for starting direction then walk the line of your putt to target then click (ie ending direction) to determine the number of "feet" the putt is. no elevation since elevation is not legal in tourmanets. i can use...

Trying to decide which ones to get. Thoughts?

I was at GT today, west location, and the nike free tw shoes were in. I'm a big fan of the nike free runners/trainers and so I've been excited about these golf shoes for a while. While I've heard many others hate the look of the shoe, I found they looked awesome (the white ones, not the black...

Just wondering where you can buy rain pants that aren't the standard size for guys that are a fit 6' tall? I'm not 6' and not the most fit and have short legs. Any pair that I've looked at this past week all have leg lengths that would have to be shortened at least 6" which isn't an easy task...

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...

hi I am thinking of buying a caddy? Has anyone bought an mgi one?

I have a Skycaddie SGX and enjoy using it except for the fees. I travel to the US and require a Double Eagle membership to be able to use all the features of the unit. Garmin G6 is on sale at GT. I was golfing with a buddy who has a Garmin watch and several times the numbers were different between...

What is the difference in the new pro v1 and pro v1x versus the old ones? Also the difference in the new nxt tour versus the old one? How much is a marketing ploy just to charge more for a ball versus actual improvements?

I saw another thread on this with the praise and addoration for Sun Mountain carts lauded and no doubt they are worthy. I am wondering if anyone here has pushed one of the Kaddy Strolers? I'm tempted toward them because of the upright attitude of the bag. I am concerned about the width between...

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...

On a whim I grabbed 3 dozen of these off of Knet to try out and I must say that I am much more than impressed. Seems like these balls just know what you want em to do and they also seem alot more durable than ProV's or TM TP's.

Hi All, I noticed last week that I'm about a club shorter now that the cold weather has arrived. Having done some reading on the Interweb about the effects of cold weather on golf balls I'm thinking of switching to something w/ a much lower compression than the NXT Tour that I'm playing now. ...

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.

http://www.golftown.com/gtcommerce/stores/1/JEF-World-Of-Golf-Trunk-Locker-P3075C121.aspx Does anyone have this? Big enough for size 14 golf shoes? Well made?
