I'm no longer taking lessons, but my friends Dad works for Ping (I forget his title other than he's a "PGA Pro") and I got lessons back in April maybe? I just made sure to write down everything he said and I look over it every time I go to golf.. I may grab my SW and do some chipping today when I get home, since there's an exec. course less than two minutes away. |

You guys are killing me with golf talk and there's snow on the ground here lol
I've played prov's for about 2 years solid now and love them. I only play the prov1 x if I find them since I don't feel my swing speed is fast enough where the harder ball matters. They do sometimes fly straighter on my drives though when I'm having one of those slice days lol Also just my 2 cents on putters is that if you golf a lot and have the money to spare go with a Scotty Cameron. I was just a average putter with good read ability. I switched to a Scotty Cameron black putter the week they came out and I cut out a bunch of typical three putts from my game. They feel of the putter helped me stay on line and smooth out my stroke. Also I think it's a mental boost holding a Scotty lol confidence in a Putting stroke does wonders when you can commit to a line and speed. Dropped me from mid/high 90s to mid/80s real quick. Now if I can just figure out how to get my driver more consistent I could easily be mid 70s haha.

I will flip between a Pro V1 and Pro V1x, though I think the lack of spin on the X helps keep my drive straighter at times, but I'd like to have the control on the green when I need to draw it back (sometimes I can do that, most of the time I'm just happy I'm on the green. ) I haven't decided on a putter yet, though I think I want one of those fat grips on it. I've never hit with one, but it seems it would help with the feel, etc. I'll go look at putters here soon. I think if I played a bit more and now that I'm getting my stroke down after lessons, I could be back into mid-80's. I just have to practice more to get the consistency with the irons/short game to get myself back to low-80's or even into the 70's. Man, I'm pumped to play again. I don't know why I stopped for a couple of months! |

I got a Scotty Cameron black 1.5 with 2 - 15g weights in the bottom. Also it's a solid bent heel shaft. Not the step down nor a straight in design. Don't like either of those styles. Also the fatter grips do feel better but I haven't used one enough to be convinced to switch over yet. Takes a lot of the wrist movement out of the equation for me at least. Not sure how it effects others. Sadly I shot mostly high 80s and some low 90s this summer but I didn't play barely at all this year. Did like 2 outings and maybe got out once or twice a month at best. It rained on a lot of Weekends this summer here in Pittsburgh. Ruined most of my free time for golf.

Ah. I don't bend/move my wrists at all when putting.
I almost hate golfing right now with my Dad's old clubs, I wish Xmas was tomorrow so I could have my new ones. I'm going to have to relearn distances and such, but it'll be good. |

I'm slowly converting my whole bag to titleist. All I need now is driver, hybrid, and wedges. For now though my Cleveland cg14 wedges are working fine and are pretty new so those will be last. My r7 driver is next to go. Glad my buddy is sponsored by titleist and I think I'm getting some hand-me-down wedges since he just got a whole new set of 18 different clubs for his 2014 season use lol

TBH, the Titleist felt good. I really couldn't tell the difference between the TM and the Titleist, it just came down to price and the fact I've been using TM for a long time I guess.
They also had a TM rep at GolfSmith that helped me fit the club pretty well when I went to try it out. |
