    Default Impact Spray

    Does anyone else use impact spray for their practice? I have been finding it useful, and there's nothing like seeing that impact creep towards the hosel.




    Instead of the overpriced specific strike spray that golf shops are selling for over $20, I was using foot odour spray. In particular, I was using one by Dermal for 10 bucks, but I just ran out, and after buying another can, found that they have a "New Formula" that has made the spray dry clear, which is useless for showing impact. I also found that a can of Scholls that I tried was clear too. What is everyone else using?

    Pretty sure I tried Tinaderm once, and it was fine.

    Sorry, AP, but this has to be done.

    The only time I use impact spray is when the spray doesn't work and I have to squash the insect with the can.

    You can go back to serious golf-related discussion now.

    White board marker, dot or line on the ball works

    I've marked a line on balls to check like angle. Though I used a sharpie and hit it pretty much straight away. Didn't think of using a white board marker.

    I can get several hits out of spray. Marking the ball every time seems like a pain.

    I use glad wrap, and then baby powder. The glad wrap keeps the powder from flying off.

    Just a quick wipe on the face with a damp golf towel after each hit, you'll always see the ball mark.

    Dry Shampoo seems to work well. $6.50 from Coles.

    Multiple chips on the grass in the backyard, so the grass scuffed it up.
