Received an email from Jezz last week looking for the review this week to put into the April edition of GM.
Just sent off my review on the Burner Draw Driver this evening. Unfortunately the weather hindered testing on the course this month as course closed 3 out of 4 weekends-club tested in an 11 hole comp and on the range.

I throughly enjoyed the testing even though it mainly took palce in the range.

As you can see from my earier post, I made the mistake of writing mine before I received full instructions so had to hurriedly edit 1200 words into 175.

Lucky I had the decent weather as would have been a bit hard to test balls on a range, 12 shots and I would have been finished.

GB72 glad you got to the course its being lousy in Dublin this month with frost covered course early in the month and rain the past 2 weeekends-the most annoying part was the weather during the week in the earlier part of the month was dry and fine no frost, but come Friday and Saturday night clear skys and the frost came down quicker than you know what. At lest the rain had the decency to fall everyday from Monday to Sunday.

Ive not had any request for mine, so I assume it will be in the coming weks or two and scheduled for May?
I got out a few times over chrustmas and got plenty of hits with the mp600 though the past fortnight has been a washout.

I haven't yet had a request for my review of the Scotty Camaron Red-X putter, but I have used it quite a few times now, even in competition, so I do have something to say. I'm sure someone will send me an email when they are ready.

Sent mine in yesterday.

Review of Yes! Tiffany by Parmo

Opening the box gave a strange feeling of shock and wonder, Yes! Tiffany is not one for the best looking putters, but its weight and sight alignment gave me something to think about.

The unique sight alignment lines and head shape really helped me get a feel for this putter straight away. The Yes! C-Groove feel wonderful on the longer putts, the confidence this putter brings is unreal. I found using this putter a real pleasure, I was impressed with all aspects of this putter once I was able to get over the alignment lines and head shape.

After testing the Yes! Tiffany I can only relegate my existing putter (Hippo OS4) to the shed. Putting has always been a weakness for me, now I have the confidence it seems so much easier.

Yes! It’s remaining in the bag.

Jezz here,
We sent out 12 items in the first wave - six to be featured in our April issue, and six in the May issue.
Those going in the April issue have already been asked for their feedback, while those going in the May issue should expect to hear from either Paul O'Hagan or myself in 3-4 weeks time - so plenty of time for further testing (weather permitting!).
With regard to the feedback, we are basically asking for 150 words in a set format with the intention being to make it snappy and therefore more readable.
In a nutshell, we are asking for the following:-
* First impressions – approx 30 words
* Test report – approx 75 words
* Comparison with existing equipment – approx 40 words
* Staying in your bag? – approx 10 words

If any of those who, by a process of elimination, are lined up for the May issue would like full briefing notes, please drop me an email and I'd be happy to send them over.
Hope this brings everybody up to date,
Regards
Jezz
