• We'd like to take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas from all at Golf Monthly. Thank you for sharing your 2025 with us!

I bought today.....

A dozen Bridgestone Tour B X balls with 2 free from AG (had a £15 voucher). Interested to see what difference they make (if any) from the softer Project (a) I've been playing.
 
Just got 2 dozen z-stars xv (2017 model) delivered off of ebay for £37. Cheaper as they were meant to have logos on - both boxes are free of logos. :)

Now going to see if I really need a premium ball - I suspect not, but worth a try at that price.
 
Adidas Forged Fibre BOA. So impressed with the shoes we tested in the Adidas reader day that I had to get a pair of these.
Honestly think these are the holy grail of golf shoes!

The Adidas tour 360 spikeless are just on a whole other level of comfort. One of the other guys said it was on a par if not better than his Ecco’s which as you know are expensive by comparison. Honestly could have played 18 and then gone shopping afterwards straight out the box. Unbelievable.

We deliberately walked up steep hills with short grass and the grip was faultless.

The leather appears to be of a very high standard, very soft and supple. Simply couldn’t fault them. The forge fibre boa are the same sole as the 360 spikeless with a textile waterproof upper. No brainer.

I’ve had 4 pairs of the tour 360 boost spiked and echo that their are without doubt the most comfortable shoes I have owned. It’s just a shame that you cannot get more than 8 months from the before the inside of the rear heel breaks down. Not something I’m willing to accept on £140 shoes
 
Odyssey V line Stroke Lab putter.

Borrowed a mates to try for 18 on Sunday and putted quite nicely with it, and it just looks great when putting, liked it a lot. Pulled the trigger on one yesterday morning, played 9 holes with it in the afternoon, 12 putts for the nine holes, 6 single putt holes. What a difference, the roll was so much better than my 9 year old Scotty. Let's hope the magic dust doesn't wear off too soon.

Have any of these had the leather inside the heel?
I know I had issues when they were using material inside but was hoping this would be stopped by using leather.
