Little overhaul on my TeI3. Custom Shop sent it back saying they won’t do any loft/lie months ago. Put it back together tonight so I can get it adjusted at PGASS next week.

Went KBS CT Tour that was in my Swag and topped it off with an SSC grip.

Going to lead tape this sumbitch when the adjustments are made.



Took this guy to the range tonight. Haven’t swung a club in a month or so. No data but I loved what I saw. Hit the 975D a fair bit as well. The overall performance jump between that and the R5 is shocking. Between the R5 and SIM2 Max, not very apparent by eyeball. I’m sure LM data will prove otherwise but man the R5 certainly seems to hold its own.




ckay I grew up with a R580XD... this brings me back, and now I want to hunt for one

titleistforged The chase is fun. Be patient and get the best one you can find. I think you’ll find the performance to be acceptable in today’s game. To me the 975 isn’t relevant any longer but the R5 is which in turn should make the 580 as well.

ckay I mean on center hits there should be no performance difference if you have correct fit to keep spin down.

    ckay Yeah, I re-familiarized myself with a 975J a few years ago as nostalgia, but the head was a bit too small, which wasn't very confidence-inspiring. On center hits, it did go, but mishits were punishing. I'd imagine on center hits, I can prob smash the 580 pretty decently, perhaps even more so with a good shaft.

      Did some paintfill on my go-to half bag and redid the top of the bag. Taking it for a spin next weekend.
