**Overrated: **

-460cc driver heads for "forgiveness"

-Groove technology on putters

-Swingweight

**Underrated: **

-A good consistent golf ball that spins enough (Srixon Z-star for me)

-Enough bounce on a wedge (hello Vokey V-grind)

-4 woods

Rogue ST Max LS (8.0), Tensei CK Pro White 70TX 

Cobra Aerojet (14.5), Tensei CK Pro White 70TX

TSi2 (18, A1), Tensei AV Raw White 85TX

U85 (22), X100

i210 (5-UW), X100

Scotty Cameron putters/Nicklaus golf equipment

Poker chip ball markers/small, cheap, round plastic ball markers you can stick in the ground

Getting fitted/adjusting your swing to the situation or how you are hitting the ball that day

Long drives/consistently being able to make 5 footers

First tee time of the day/twilight golf

"Shot values" (whatever that means)/course conditions
