Couple of pairs of the £9.99 golf shorts from Lidl. Not worn them in anger yet but they're just what I've been looking for. The chino shorts I normally wear have been creating a bit of a boil in the bag scenario in this recent warmer weather.

They're a little tight on the bottom but hey, if you've got it - flaunt it.

I went for a Ping Fairwood wood fitting today.

Pleasant surprise to find they had one in stock in the proshop (Tensei shaft).

Ps I have not hit that may balls on a range in years - my own club 2 different heads and 3 different shafts. Then back to what we thought was the best.

I still wonder about fitters trying to get me to go back to stiff shafts at my age but it was only just marginal between what he suggested Ping Stock in stiff and the Tensei in regular.

I’m sure the design of these will ‘divide’ people’s opinion ? but I like them and they look much better in the flesh in my opinion. Hoping I can spot them in the rough a bit easier ? and quite looking forward to putting with them ?

What are these the equivalent of please mate.

What do you mean? They are basically just a 2 colour Q Star Tour which is the new version of the AD333 I believe. Design idea taken from the old (very) Ping split colour ball idea I’d imagine ?

Q Star Tour are nothing like the AD333 - did you mean AD333 Tour?
They are much more like Z Stars.

I got put into a cb Alta in stiff for the 3 crossover.. I would say it’s very close to a regular as it feels quite soft. I did not bother looking at the shaft when I was trying it, just when I went out on the course and that’s when I had a look. The driver shaft from the same fitting was regular.. but as always it’s totally irrelevant as it’s just a word and not a physical measurement.
