Golf equipment: sticks, balls etc. what do you use and why?

[heater31]

had a round at the north course for a quick round but was longer than hoped

hit a 70

Won't be there much longer, the trust want to rip half of it up and put in more baseball diamonds and soccer pitches......

[mighty_tiger_79]

I didn't know about that

A shame if it occurs

bought a callaway jaws 60 degree wedge saturday, from drummond. half price at $65.

a bit of golf wankery for my skill level, but it still felt nice the single time i hit it to within 4 ft from 60 away

missed the putt too just incase you were wondering

[mighty_tiger_79]

picked up some X2 Hot golf balls - callaway last week

designed for a moderate swing speed of 90mph and under which I think I am

saw on revolutiongolf - the tour striker app

but its only available on I=phone and not likely to be on android

possibly should be in another thread also, but seriously why would anyone release an app and not have it on android, when android is the way of the future and the way to reach the masses

[bennymacca]

more people spend money on ios for apps than they do on andriod.

to say that it is the "way of the future" is just like saying macos is the way of the future.

development is also easier on ios because it is a single platform/phone combo

golfshot is on both ios and android and is great.

benny - please don't let the facts get in the way of my whinging!

[bennymacca]

Haha.

I currently have an iPhone 5 and am on the fence as to whether I get a galaxy note next time. So statements like yours above actually help

[mighty_tiger_79]

booked in to get clubs fitted properly

then once that's done I will look at getting some much needed lessons to try and reduce the amount of hacking I do!

Great little free app i've been using for scorecard and GPS.

"FunGolf GPS"


But everyone in North America is raving about this app- http://foursum.com/
Its not availble in Aus yet. I'm assuming its like Strava?

[Banker]

I finally lashed out on a decent buggy....

[Dogmatic]

Got some of these http://www.callawaygolf.com/golf-clubs/mens/irons%2Fcombo-sets/irons-big-bertha-hybrids-big-bertha-combo.html coming my way.

[mighty_tiger_79]

Looks nice

[Dogmatic]

Looks nice

I just hope the clubs are at the place I am getting them delivered to when I am there.

[Dogmatic]

Got the clubs back home and I am looking forward to taking them on their maiden voyage on Saturday. Won't be expecting too much as I haven't played for almost 8 weeks.

does anyone know the best way to change a grip on a golf club?

i bought one of those fat grips for my putter. of course it is my actual skill with the putter that causes issues, but hell, ill try and blame it on something else.

anyway, it seems like there might be a bit of glue etc under the grip. i dont really want to cut the grip off just in case i dont like the new one.

is there a trick to it?

[bennymacca]

just looked at a few youtube vids, damn, it is a fair bit more involved than than i first thought. perhaps naively i thought it would be similar to re-gripping a cricket bat

[mighty_tiger_79]

I got my last set re-gripped at House of Golf at Mile End

I put on the reverse grip, so it was thicker down the bottom
