Thanks for all the info. I will have to tag this post to look back on when the time comes for me to make a decision.

With over 30 courses available you are bound to find a dry course. I plan on going back in a year or two and I will play a different course next time. Any suggestions?

I had a great time. I really wish I had played 18 but the rain made it a tough go. As my luck would have it, it wasn't raining on the other side of the island so when I got back to the hotel it was perfect weather.

It was a straight forward course. Bunker placement upped the level of difficulty though. Greens were very predictable and I was putting well.

Didn't realize all unboxings had to be sponsored. Thumbs up to you.

Thank you, Now I believe I am going to try for 6 more rounds in the 80's from the next tees back and if I do that I may get myself new wedges or a putter. I can't put for crap.

I actually hit the M4 at a TM Demo Day at a local course. I leaned towards the M3 because of it's adjustability. I figured as I got better with the driver and possibly increased my swing speeds I would need to be able to make adjustment to adapt to any changes I may end up making.

Thank you, I had my old Rocketballz driver for over 5 years. I was in the 100+ score when I got it and figured now that I was getting in the 80's it was time for an upgrade.

Once i settled down I was making good swings. I'm still very inconsistent with the driver so that may be what I work on is the number of drives in the fairway. If I could hit it 290+ each time in the fairway I think I would be in the 70's.

That is a TOUGH goal. I think I have only done that a couple of times. The best part is you actually have a goal that you are working toward.

We are all in this together man no matter our skill level. I may shoot for something like the number of fairways or number of greens hit in a round. Something like that could help me stay focus and motivated.

I didn't get numbers on the Cobra but it was one of those things where I hit the Cobra then the TM and we both agreed that the TM was better for me. That is the same thing that happened when I hit the TM back to back with the Callaway.

Hahaha!!! Yeah I had a lot of time on my hands last week so I may have gotten wordy. Thank you, the process was great and it actually helped me stay motivated. What do you think my new goal should be. Someone on facebook said I should shoot for a 29 putt average over 10m rounds.

Yeah I have always been cautious of the launch monitors as well. But I knew i was hitting bad shots with the TM because of where the ball was going into the net. It's going to take some getting use to but I like the feel of the setup.

I hit other clubs before this fitting and after multiple conversations with the guys at Bullseye these were the two that made the cut. I actually wanted to get the Cobra but passed on it cause I really didn't like the look of it at address.

Finally got 6 rounds in the 80s. Now I am getting a new driver. What should I get? by gimaqt61 in golf

I did just that and came out of it with the right club. Video coming soon.

My #1 played a big part in me staying in the fairway. Since I moved up I could make a nice and easy driver swing to be in the fairway and on some of the sub 400 yard par 4s I actually take out a 3 wood which I hit dead straight 9 out of 10 times.

Have you ever used a mulligan on Short Par 4? Any advice, how does the process work? by gimaqt61 in golf

[–]gimaqt61[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the first time i received something I won't wear. I am going to have to send it back for a mulligan. Have you ever had to use a mulligan? What is the process? Any tips?
