What if i buy a fat one in Black and just hate looking down at its size??

Would i be able to do a Homer and post for the next 6 months how i wish I'd bought the thin in Blue instead?:rofl::rofl:
 
I should add we also tested retail issue against pro shop issue, quality was rather disappointing, on the retail ones they would wear off after s 25 hits, this is ok but if you have marked your ball with a fat tip to reduce spin and lower flight, half way round you would experience a totally different ball

Also, I was advised by my pro that the pro shop release have a neutral lie angle, be very very careful if you struggle with a strong grip as the different lie on retail issue can promote a strong grip within the golf swing.... But on the flip if you suffer with a strong grip pro shop release sharpies can neutralise your grip.

50 shots per round.... Forget lessons..... I am buying a pen!

Only if you spend money on multiple lessons on a launch monitor for your pro to tell ya " get over it "
 
So why does it not affect putter role.... Sorry for being thick I am new to all the "pen" flight laws and are they old or new?


PS for 80 shots I am still buying a pen!

According to the New Pen Flight Laws, the colour of the pen dictates the initial direction and the thickness dictates the subsequent flight...

Just Googled them... The old law states a line pointing slightly left =slice as long as club face 48 degrees right of target and pointing slightly right with a club face 22 degrees closed to target = duck hook




Omg how bored am I!

Did you read the later release which takes into account pen colour and tip size?
 
It's all very well recommending top of the range Sharpies - if you can afford them. I use refinished lake pens. Performance is down a bit but everyone thinks you're using a premium brand. Does that make a pen snob?
 
Im about to buy a new marker pen to mark my ball during the coming season. So in the vein of one of Markgs post.

Which should i get?

Ive heard black will make the ball go further, but i like blue.

Or should i wait and get custom fitted for one?:rofl::rofl:

what happened to the head cover thread?
