    Ping G440 K Driver

    This is something which I am now over thinking.. with the back weight, I was told on a Titleist TSi3 that you put the weight where you strike the ball to give it more mass behind the ball, but on other clubs its said to put the weight in the toe or heel for shot bias. I am a fader, so I put my...

    Favourite Golf Glove

    Yeah, I heard that too, I'm a long way off playing in any comps tho :sneaky: Thanks to this thread, I went on a bit of a glove-buying binge. I bought some old favourites and some new ones I've ever tried before

    Favourite Golf Glove

    I quite liked the Bionic RelaxGrip; it has extra padding in the place I always get a hole in, which lasted a bit longer than most gloves. Titleist PermaSoft is also pretty good as well. At the moment wearing FootJoy StaSoft, and they haven't lasted too well visable wear after 1 round. 🤷‍♂️

    Ping G440 K Driver

    They did on the G425 fairway and hybrids, if they thought it was a good idea i wonder why it was different for the driver? fwiw, terbulators don't bother me. I use a G410 hybrid and a G430 driver with them, don't even know they're there after a few holes while were talking about ping, I had a...

    I played today and..(Rolling) -originally created by JohnnyDee

    I managed to get out yesterday, for the first time in about a month. It was warm and sunny, with a little drizzle in the late morning. The greens were a bit saturated, but the fairways were playable, maybe a tad soft. In the everlasting ping-pong of either my drivers/woods working great and...

    I bought today.....

    I did this recently, bought a Ping driver head, a Ping version of my Taylormade shaft was too expensive/hard to find, so had a club fitter change the adapter to Ping, worked great and saved a lot of money That's a fantastic putter, I used an 'anser' type putter for a while - a Taylormade Soto...

    Best golf shoes for season ahead - what do you recommend.

    I wear Ecco Biom C4, which is probably the best golf shoe I've worn, and I would recommend. Truly a waterproof golf shoe, and decent comfort, decent grip as well for a spikeless. Although I think Air Max 90s or Jordan 1s are fine for summer golf. For spikes i used to love the FootJoy Packards...

    Carbon Faced Drivers

    was a decent thread about this a few weeks ago.. but I'll recur. I had a stealth hd for several years, had some wear, yes, but never broke on me, but after playing with a carbon face driver for so long, as soon as you go back to a metal driver it just feels and sounds so much better, and in my...

    Warm ( ! ) Winter jacket recommendation ?

    My other golf jackets are Adidas Frostguard - very warm and very light, although not much warmth on the arms, as it's like a hoody material. and a Nike Storm Fit Victory jacket, which is extremely warm, windproof and somewhat water-resistant, it's also very quiet when you swing too. I'd...

    Warm ( ! ) Winter jacket recommendation ?

    I've been wearing my Helly Hansen Midlayer Crew Jacket 2.0,its as good as any golf jacket i've used before; it's warm, windproof, waterproof and breathable. and has a bunch of pockets too. You can usually get it for good prices on Vinted/eBay...

    I bought today.....

    I was going through some old golf clothes I had in the loft, and found one of my favourite pairs of Ping trousers, now... somehow they shrank... so I looked online where I thought I bought them from to get another pair, but I can't find them. So maybe someone knows of the model of the...

    New Driver for 2026

    I think callaway has the best adjustable adapter. Why can't that be the standard for all adapters?

    I bought today.....

    My Lamkin Crosslines midsize have been giving me blisters since I started playing with them. I don't have a death grip either; I just don't think my hands get on with them too well. So bought some Iomic 2.3 grips for my irons. and an Adidas Frostguard jacket, lovely for when the weather...

    New Driver for 2026

    I just posted on another thread about drivers, but I guess it will be better to go into detail here. As everyone loves a good driver story :p 3 years ago, I was a driver hoe, I just couldn't find one which made me go wow, never been particularly good with the driver, my 3 wood is straighter and...
