New Garmin approach S62 update 2021??
Swisstrader98 replied to K-Hook's topic in GPS/Range Finders/Mobile Apps
I’ve owned the 62 for a while now and actually a bit disappointed. My biggest concern is that it just gives front, middle and center to green, so when I do side by side comparison to a buddy’s laser, it’s very often a bit off and sometimes as much as 7-10 yards which I can’t have. Maybe this is with all GPS watches, but still not what I was expecting. -
How did you do on the back 9?

Let It Ride Gambling Game - Anyone play it?
Swisstrader98 replied to King_Slender's topic in Rules of Golf and Etiquette
Looks like modified Stableford to me. We play this w larger groups. -
Are these available in the US as of yet? Would love to test. And if people are willing to spend $400-500 for Ventus or other high end shafts like myself, I would be a buyer for an additional $250...I switched to ventus a couple months ago and got me an extra 10-15 yards with exact same head.

New to JDM looking for a little insight

One word: Epons if you’re considering JDM and haven’t hit the Epons you’re doing yourself a disservice. -
Not by a long shot. My wife is all about horses. Makes my golf habit look VERY cheap.

Untrue in the case of some of the private clubs.

"Net Double Bogey" How stupid is this?
Swisstrader98 replied to CaymanS's topic in Rules of Golf and Etiquette
I always thought it was unfair for lower handicappers complements of ESC were able to in essence post lower scores due to max score on each hole. Always thought it was a way to keep high handicappers high and lower handicappers an advantage on the score card. New max scoring is simpler or more equitable in my opinion. -
Golfer's Elbow - desperate for some good advice!
Swisstrader98 replied to Jlopicco23's topic in Instruction & Academy
I had terrible service elbow issues for 2-3 years, tried virtually every band, stretching exercise and crazy internet suggestions but nothing worked. From my limited medical knowledge, my right elbow had a detached muscle which explained my pain level and also explained why bands or other treatments other than surgery would not wok here. Opted for surgery for right elbow. Did this where they literally tie the the detached muscle to the bone. It was microscopic surgery but rehab still took 3-4 months and a bit painful. second surgery was a couple years later on left elbow. Opted for somethi -
What is the one rule you wish could be changed
Swisstrader98 replied to Vespar's topic in Rules of Golf and Etiquette
I would agree. No one can convince me that Langer is not anchoring. Same for a guy we play with occasionally and seeing it up close, the guy is definitely anchoring. Tough to prove and also a case of me not wanting to call a friend out on it, but easy to see it. Unsure why with all the rules around equipment they don’t simply limit the length of the putter. -
Wow! That intro video was horrific!

Years back I was fixated on getting a set of Miuras. Fitter hands me an Epon 502 iron and I was blown away. For me it was night/day difference with Miuras having very little feel for me while the Epons were beyond soft. Longest I’ve ever stayed with a set of irons because they were just that accurate both in terms of dispersion and distance. Just recently bought a set of black 705’s and also love em. it’s a personal choice. You need to hit each one side by side.
