Nice. I'm not a big Scotty guy but my friend had it and said I could have it. They are good putters but everything about them is overhyped and severely over priced. I've seen outrageous prices for just headcovers and those pivot tools, it's ridiculous. Oh yeah and grips

I've never understood the price tag relative to performance on anything Cameron or with a swoosh on it.

Well the swoosh is at least priced comparable to other brands on most regards. There are putters that are close in actual price to Cameron like bettinardi and low tide etc but that is just for the putter. All the accessories and don't even mention the limited edition junk is priced insane. If you want to have a putter restored at the scotty custom shop it's gonna run in the neighborhood of $200 and if you want it authenticated it's like an extra $40. Lol Wtf. Other guys do that at a fraction of the cost with just as good or better work. I assume it's just some sort of false status symbol deal or something. Maybe it's just an expensive collection hobby for some.

My wife's uncle got us on at Sara Bay Golf Club in Bradenton, Fl. It's where the famous Hagen vs Jones match took place. Really nice course.

Congrats John Daly

I was glad to hear about this. I followed him the day he made the cut at the Sanderson Farms Championship a couple months ago. He can still stroke it farther than anybody.

I was given a couple dozen Bridgestone B330's.. Anybody play these? I usually hit ProV1's/ProV1x's... How would you say these compare?

 

[vol_in_ar]

doubt you will tell a difference, the Bridgestones are good balls

If you're hitting. pro V1 and hitting it well you're probably not gonna like them. I have a wrecked shoulder so my swing speed isn't quite where it should be, so I hit the e6 or B330 depending on the weather and I love it

Phoenix Open: Tiger Woods shoots an 82, his worst round ever

 

[ChadFeldheimer]

I have the original rocketballz 3 wood its a little dinged up but still hit ok. I just got the S SLDR 3 wood to try out. Can anymore compare these 2?

 

[ChadFeldheimer]

Just by looking the RBZ head appears a good deal taller/thicker while the SLDR seems a little smaller & thinner.

 

[vol_in_ar]

go hit 'em, and see what you think

I've got the RBZ driver and 3. I hit the SLDR in the simulator, and I preferred my RBZs. But it's all about personal preference.

 

[ChadFeldheimer]

I hit them yesterday. I'm sticking with my RBZ 3 Wood. There were 2 par 5's that I'm usually always on in 2 hitting driver/3 wood. I was short on both of them hitting the SLDR 3 Wood yesterday. The RBZ 3 wood is 3.5 years old and still 20 yards further than the sldr 3 wood.
