What have you bought this weekend for golf

[goughy]

A selection of different low compression balls to test out.

[Kelsey86]

I got 22 ProV1s for about $20. The dozen was partially paid for with pro shop credit, the other 10 from NTP wins and placing in comps. Should keep me going for a while

Will be interesting to see how you go with this. I've looked at overspeed training a few times - everyone wants a few more MPH, and most people seem to get a decent improvement pretty quickly. But on the other hand I've heard of a few people hurting themselves from overdoing it.

I did already increase speed a little with the strength work that I did last year and intent. I have neck issues though, and this seems to flow down to muscle problems around the shoulders and chest; maybe some tightness which has led to the last couple of problems. In conjunction with the speed sticks, I might look at what mobility stuff I can do in that area instead of weights. There's plenty of room for improvement with my swing speed, so I'd expect at least some increase in speed by training with these. I won't start until I get a chance to measure my current speed, so I have a baseline.

After you hurt yourself can you send them to me so I can hurt myself and have a legitimate excuse not to play any more?

I got them from Bitter who passed them on because of injury, so passing them on again seems logical. If you are injured, you could play through injury to decrease the enjoyment level even more.

If I'm legitimately injured, why in the blue **** would I do something I hate already in the hope of hating it even more?

I'll never understand you golfers.

Playing with an injury might force you to change the way you putt

The only injury that will make me putt better is a Traumatic Brain Injury.

You definitely are hitting the ball at least 20m further than you did 10+ years ago. As you still use the same irons since 1981, thats easily verifiable, thats about 2 clubs, is that right?

I haven't really transferred the distance gain to the irons, so they aren't going much longer, except at Helensvale. I've never been off the back of greens so much.

I picked up 2 clubs after I fixed a few flaws frozen shoulder gave me. The bonus was gained more than i lost, so that kind of made me feel better.

so they aren't going much longer, except at Helensvale. I've never been off the back of greens so much.

I forgot to tell you to hit 1 club less on 15. Theres some anomaly in the universe there, everyone goes over.

[3Puttpete]

I needed a new putter grip so I bought one.

And a bag, shoes and balls.

[simmsy]

You're my hero.

and then purchased a Mizuno M-Craft 03 Omoi

[sheezymaneezy]

One of those Sun Mountain Gliders. Looks and feels nice.

Yikes. That's...... a little different.

[simmsy]

[Dazza]

A basically new Taylormade Rossa Monza Itsy Bitsy Spider.
I don't think it's even seen a golf bag.

[Courty]

A pair of FJ Fuel Sport

[Kelsey86]

A box of those new ProV1s

[3Puttpete]

2 hats

[AndyP]

I can lower the bar. Two gloves.

[3Puttpete]

Rory was gonna buy tees but he got a free one

[AndyP]

Go Aces!

[BobsYourUncle]

Box of Vice Pro Plus in lime green. I got the green because I could get a single box a bit cheaper than buying direct (didn't want to shell out for 5 dozen balls without trying them first). The green was a lot better than I thought it'd be (although I've always been a bit of a coloured ball fan). Very firm like a Pro V1x or z-star XV, long with a satisfying feel & sound off the driver, plenty of spin around the green. With the new Pro V1 models retailing for ~$85, I think I'll be buying more of these.

I’ve got a brand new box of these sealed in plastic if you want them? I can bring them to Melbourne next week for Champs?

Might cost you a couple bottles of these if you’re keen?

White or green? Doesn't matter though, I'll take them either way.
