    @anyone that knows about driver shafts

    The equivalent in the current Ping line up would be the Tour Black or Tour Chrome.

    Spray for grip tackyness?

    The Golf Pride tour rep told me to scrub them with a scrubbing brush and washing powder. Had to be washing powder not liquid as there was some enzyme in it that reacts with the grip.

    Much difference between black/red dot Ping irons (pre 2013) for a beginner?

    Do you play with a fade/slice? If so going slightly more upright will only help. You cansend them back to Ping to be adjusted anytime or if you're anywhere near Gainsborough you can drop in and they'll do it while you wait.

    Ping Spares

    Youll be changing the swing weight by 3 sw's which is considerable. 1 gram is approx 1/2 a sw.

    Looking for a shaft

    The copper shafts was in the G400, its the same Alta shafts in G410 and G425 but with different colours to match the clubs. The Alta has always been counterbalanced (CB) but the G400 shafts sleeve will not fit G410/425.

    Heavier shaft needed to beat the hook?

    Take the head off the shaft and you will see three flat lie angle settings on the adapter. Put in in the flat 0 position. This won’t change the loft but will make it harder to hook. Can also try the weight in the fade position, this will stop the face closing as much, plus you may be hitting it...

    Skechers

    Won't buy anything other than Skechers now. Never had any issues with them and they're so comfy. What are people doing with them to make them fail so quickly, trekking to the north Pole. Had one pair 3 years and they're still fine.

    Driver Issue

    Has the face cracked, does it make a strange noise?

    The Putter

    As a fitter I couldn't agree less. The number of people I see who's putter is completely wrong for them is unbelievable. Wrong length, stroke type & loft. Plenty of benefit to a putter fitting for most people.

    Booking system v no booking system

    My club brought in a booking system and most people hate it. Other than comps I play a lot of swindle/fiddles golf and it is ruining it. We had 6 times spread over 3 hours on Sunday, the social side is disappearing, wasn't an issue before. It just fastest finger first for weekend times.

    Ping G425 LST Driver Shaft Recommendations?

    Try the Ping Tour 65 Stiff, same weight but a little firmer.

    Demo day vs custom fit

    There seems to be a feeling that you need to try all the options. A fitting is about using the expertise of the fitter to find the best set up, not trying every option and then seeing which is best. Usually after watching someone hit their own driver you can see what is right/wrong about it and...
