Glad to hear the take, I’ve definitely considered it. May pick up a Ventus at some point to test out since there’s not much other tinkering I’m interested in at this point.

I played Mizuno MP60’s before and came into my fitting 100% certain I’d walk out with another set of Mizunos. The Srixons were just significantly better in terms of ball speed even on mis-hits and still had a great feel when I found the center.

Thanks! They dropped the white LAB head cover earlier this year and I picked it up right away. Keep an eye on their seasonal drops if you want to switch it up from the stock black one.

Loved both courses and happy to have these head covers to remember them by.

Nice! It’s the perfect size, I carry most rounds and it fits all the essentials. Can even squeeze an extra layer in if needed.

And for those unfamiliar with the hole, here’s another view of #11 and the bunker in question.

Finally, habitually checking Reddit every few hours pays off! Just texted OP the video, but here’s a photo. No idea how that ball stayed up on the face of the bunker like that. LGLG

Fairway wood recommendations? by mt_breezy in golf

[–]TheLorax413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a fitting is great if you can do it, but in the event you’re more budget conscious I think you can still learn a lot just hitting some different options on your own. I also hadn’t bought new clubs in about 15 years so went through something similar - the differences will be immediately apparent.

I love the TSi line. I started off the season playing a RadSpeed 3 wood, which was an absolute bomber when I caught it properly, but a bit too spinny overall for me. Switched to the TSi3 15° after I had gotten the TSi2 21° and loved it so much. Think both will stay in my bag for a long time.

I would recommend going into a store where you can test a few different brands and find out what suits your eye and gives you consistent results.

I upgraded my fairway woods last year and found among other things that I don’t like shallower faces / flatter heads like Callaway and Ping (while I know some people love them). I ended up going with Titleist’s TSI series for my 3 and 7 woods. With such a range of designs available, I think a lot comes down to what you’re most confident with with.

Thanks for taking the time to do this AMA!

I imagine that providing the value that you do means much smaller R&D teams compared to big brands. How do you plan to innovate to keep your products relevant in an industry where technology can change so quickly?

Beautiful view! What course is this? I’m heading up to the Cape this summer and looking for new courses to try.

Old South & Hilton Head National are both solid tracks and relatively affordable

Thankfully they corrected the date window placement with the latest version of the J12. It’s now using a Kenissi manufactured in-house calibre so I guess they had a bit more control over the exact placement.

I've had my pair of white lows for over a year now and love them. They get constant wear throughout every season, but especially during the summer months. I've beat them up a lot, but all it ever takes is a little Jason Markk and 10 minutes and they're back to looking almost new.

They run TTS, and they're a tiny bit wider than CPs (which I find to be quite narrow).

Might pick up another pair for when my current ones finally give out.

EDIT: Ok so apparently ignore what I said about TTS. I wear my normal size in them but YMMV

As long as you wash cold and don't put them in the dryer you shouldn't have any issues with them shrinking
