    Loved the quad pro Cleveland did with marging steel face. From their old product description:

    "Thin, stiff and lively maraging steel “Pro Active” face insert adds extra power of even greater distance"

    I think 10 is equivalent of PW and 11 is GW.

    Is he back playing 43.5”. Pretty sure he was a year or 2 ago, but thought he went back to a bit longer.

    Would seem so. I wonder what his 3w is? My driver is 43 ¾” and I play a 5w length 3w.

    Anyone had a go at putting BGT stability shafts into their putter? Can you get it here in Australia?

    Anyone seen or using the new Callaway larger golf ball?

    Magna

    3% bigger

    Much straighter

    Shorter of the tee

    About 25-30 years ago, when it was called the Spalding Magna.

    It was so unimpressive, that none of the other OEMs copied it.
