Congrats guys...looks like you're having a blast! Kudos to Callaway for doing this!

 

Now I need one of you to do me a favor. I'll be heading on an annual golf trip to the Dominican Republic on Feb 3rd and living in NJ probably won't be playing much until then.

 

Please find out if it will be possible for me to have a 9 degree Epic SZ in time for my trip?

 

This is very critical and of the highest priority...lol! ?

 

Thanks in advance and have fun!

I had a phenomenal fitting experience with John Degen. He is a wealth of knowledge and has tons of experience working with their Tour staff; he's working with Patrick Reed tomorrow and Belen Mozo later this week.

 

2017 Driver

Tensei Pro Blue 70X

 

2017 3W (low spin model)

Tensei Pro Blue 80X

 

XR Pro 20 Hybrid

Whiteboard 90X

 

Apex Pro 4-PW

X100 TI

 

MD3 (50S - 54S - 60C)

S400 TI

 

Sounds like a good set up! I wonder how the initial small talk between John and Pat Reed will go tomorrow if Reed asks about what he's been up to lately?

 

John: 'You know, we actually had all these internet golf nuts here yesterday, they're a #$%!ing crazy bunch'

 

So were you guys fit into all this or was it more like you had a good idea of what you wanted to try and just verified a few things on a monitor?

 

I'm looking forward to the recaps that will come tonight, but I don't know if I can stay up that late anymore

[kekoa]

Man these trips just get better and better everytime.

[Zach Heusser]

Getting fit for wedges by Roger Cleveland... man that's awesome !!!

So I gotta ask it, on the driver how much of a gain are we talking?

 

Also did they have the new blades as an option??

Amigo!! Have you ever thought about P90X or maybe some push-ups?? LOL

[mackepa]

On a bit of a hot streak with the new 2017 putter! Won another contest and got this baby!

[Hot Rod 71]

He loves the Puttskee.

 

 

[MtlJeff]

Hotrod.... whats wrong with your photo?

So I brought a ping anser 10 with Ahina. A bit older club and I hit it very straight, I thought I would gain 3-5yds with a good fitting and new driver.

 

I'll get the exact numbers when they email.

 

But essentially average carry with the Anser was just under 247 (I'm claiming headwind people). With the new Callaway I averaged 263 with the D+ which is a very similar shaft. Same loft at 10 and same length.

 

Longest drive with ping was 256/280 and with callaway 273/293. Done on trackman

 

My longest drive was something like 99mph swing with 2000rpm, 150 ball speed and 1.57 smash or something at 16 launch

 

Will confirm all of this

 

Anyway just preliminary stuff but the driver is legit. Again I understand my driver was an older one

[Hot Rod 71]

I had the privilege of being fit by the same guy that builds Phil's clubs.

 

Here's the results:

 

2017 driver - 9.5 tuned to 10.5 with Diamana Blue 60X

2016 Alpha 14* Fairway - Diamana Blue 70X

Apex hybrid 18* - Diamana Blue 80X

Apex UT 24* - Nippon Pro Modus 105S

Apex MB 5-PW - Nippon Pro Modus 130S

2017 Wedges 52*, 56*, and 60* - Nippon Pro Modus 130S

Odyssey Works 1 Wide with SuperStroke Flatso.
