Well, Phil did not birdie the 1st, and Tiger still slicing Tee shot's to the right. Some things just don't change.

www.golfalot.com/equipment-reviews/callaway-xr-16-pro-fairway-review-3417.aspxIt's the best time in Finland to buy cheap clubs. Anyone try these? The regular XR 16 3W or 4W. I like the way they feel and look, and they are on offer going for under a hundred dollars because it's also an older model and they're emptying out storage. But I have to buy one today if I still want it, and I'm not sure I can get to a simulator in the shop because of the long lines I expect (due to the sales). I'm off to the shop soon.

Make sure you get measured.

For under a hundred bucks? Go for it. You could probably get most of your money back on eBay or whatever your equivalent is. BTW- If you decide that you don't like it, cut an inch off the butt and give it another chance. I did that to all my woods and am a lot more accurate.

I got there and they had sold out already. They wouldn't sell them online, I guess they needed people coming in. Just for that, I bought nothing. Assholes.

Ive learned through the years, never go into a fitting wanting something. I just went to a fitting 2 days ago thinking the Callaway Epic or Ping 400 drivers were going to be good for me. I was dead wrong. Just spin rate alone, the Ping G400 ballooned to 6000 rpm. I ended up with Titleist ( again ). Spin rate 2900. Good thing there's science nowadays.

What do you guys think of the new 2019 rules? I was thinking of catching a bit of the Abu Dhabi tournament on telly and was wondering if the players now leave the flag in the hole at all times, or what?

I was thinking of catching a bit of the Abu Dhabi tournament on telly and was wondering if the players now leave the flag in the hole at all times, or what? I play 80% of my rounds solo and leave the flag in, so it doesn't bother me. Now if you're in a foursome and three guys want the flag out and you insist on putting it back in, you're an ass.

The flag in rule will help if you're away and you need flag tended. No longer have to say "Can somebody tend the flag for me!" Now just leave it in and putt.

Personally I don't like cutting down search time for a lost ball. I understand the will to keep public courses in the States moving, but what about the rest of the world where fescue is a course attraction? This reduction time really hurts during comps too. Cutting search time will only promote more cheating ,and complaints about course conditions because anyone who's lost a ball claims " It should be right here, it wasn't that bad of a shot". Sometimes they are right. My home course has dense bushland 1 meter off the fairway. If you roll through, good luck to you, no way in hell 3 minutes will be enough.
