That’s what I like about them. I never used to be a fan of super quiet heads but then I played the Vapor flex in 2015 and really notice loud heads (I’m talking to you callaway) now with disgust

It is. It’s the 2017 model I think... it’s decent for carrying, straps are pretty thick and provide good cushion. Only problem is it SUCKS BALLLLLLS to get clubs in an out. Half the time they won’t go all the way down to the bottom without a fight.

Once I got it bent to my preferred lie and loft I became a big fan. 71° is far too upright for me. Also, the built up pistolero, for me, is so much better than the stock grip. That extra double sided tape they shoved between the body and the face makes it feel a lot nicer (in my opinion) than the last Cameron I had... a 2012 Newport 2.

Im definitely intrigued by them. I love my Spider X but made the mistake of rolling the Squareback 1.5 at my local shop yesterday and it sits so well behind the ball. Pretty soft feeling putter too, might wait to see what he releases in the beginning of 2020 before pulling the trigger

Yeah the new line should be too far away. Worst case you could get the 2018 cheaper once the new ones hit stores

Dude great Witb. My club added Trackmans this year. I am killing it on Trackman but still suck outside. Not any 65’s but a couple pars and a -1 (-6 index).

Not sure what it is but pretty funny becuase my buds all hate me right now.

- Something that continues to go long off the tee in the fairway
- Something that is a fairway finder when needed and long
- Something that high, consistent and helps with par 5’s
-  Something to help with long par3’s and short par 4’s

-  Something metal, lots of them and go the gaps I need
- Something metal, 2x of them and helps me 120y and in
- Putters - limited rotation because I cannot afford misses

Golf is what you make of it.  Play grateful and accepting. We are all lucky to have it.

Rather than expecting lets all try and appreciate instead. 
Treat people the way you want to be treated

How does the new SIM driver feel compared to your old driver. I hit a Taylormade SLDR driver the other day my Titleist 910 driver is in danger of being replaced.

To me, coming from the M5 Tour , it doesn’t feel as “dead” and muted. Could by a 435cc vs 460cc thing or maybe the design of the head. SIM Still has that nice “Explosive” carbon crown crack type of feel , just a little higher pitched sound than the M5, so like I said, feels a little less “dead”. I actually prefer the feel of the SIM vs the M5. The louder sound makes it feel hotter, if that makes sense. It’s no where near as loud as an epic flash or some pings ive hit in the past.
