    Callaway Chrome Tour, Chrome Tour X, and Chrome Soft Golf Balls

    After extensive indoor testing this winter I settled on CTX. It was definitely the perfect ball on a launch monitor. Yesterday there was one shot that I think proved why leaned into more spin. I had a PW approach from some pretty heavy rough with the ball sitting halfway down. The shot was...

    Would You Game This?

    I would if I had a matching shaft.

    How fancy are you?

    I'm very much not fancy. Solid t shirt and jeans is my go to. Company logo Nike golf shirt and jeans is my work attire, always untucked. Really don't go to fancy restaurants that would require anything more.

    When was your last shank?

    I really hate this thread. Haven't shanked a ball the entire offseason of practice or yet this season. In the short game area with the kids yesterday and got a 15 yard pitch a tad necky. 😳 It was only practice but still jarring since it's something I struggle with in spurts.

    The Club You Were REALLY Wrong About...

    The original was made around 1996 by a company called Black Rock. I think the company or name later became part of Golfsmith.

    The Club You Were REALLY Wrong About...

    Man this could be a long list. Maybe Modus 105 and Recoil 95 shafts. Was able to groove them in a controlled environment but on course no clue where the ball was going. Honorable mention to the Killer Bee driver in the 90's. I remember a HS tournament where I hit nothing but low snap hooks.

    Large THPer meet up?

    I've attended in the past and would be interested again. We had 50+ THP'ers from all over the country at a resort in FL years ago. I think any location near a major airport would be easily accessible and get some traction. Something with onsite lodging is also needed. Check those boxes and...

    Callaway Chrome Tour, Chrome Tour X, and Chrome Soft Golf Balls

    Funny you mention this. I was catching up on the last few pages before posting some on course observations. One of them was about an 8 iron into a stiff breeze CT vs. CTX. Hit CTX good but not flushed and it flew nice and finished front edge. Then hit a CT and it was just pure. First thought...

    Which Ball Would You Play?

    I'm going ball 2 for the spin. Sure the argument can be made for ball 1 being more forgiving on misses thus the tight standard deviations. But I've played ball 1. That's the ball that spins at 4k out of the rough or with some moisture and flies 180. No thanks.

    Awesome opportunity that I'm really excited for. As a WS fan and someone living in the Chicago area I've had these in hand a few times already. They look amazing and I'd love to also go through AI fit. 1. Currently playing Cobra Fly Z+ 2. They are fantastic shape and a bit more compact than...

    Happy Birthday Thread

    Went great! My wife had fun and picked up when needed to keep pace. She loves hitting driver and hit 6/7 FIR 🤣 She even had a few pretty legit 2 putts. Definitely a success.

    Happy Birthday Thread

    Thanks! My wife and I both took the day off work and she is going to play golf with me. She's practiced with me and done a par 3 course but this is her first time out on an 18 hole course.

    You ever just get...bored?

    Sometimes it's hard to play the same 14 club setup multiple rounds in a row. :p

    Long Tom 2 wood

    I dabbled with a Long Tom for a bit. Really cool club and I liked the look. Didn't care for the lightweight theme and extra length. I'm all for comeback.

    Course Mgmt: shot evaluation criteria

    Look at it different way. If you followed your same strategy and hit just an average shot, would you even be questioning yourself. I'm guessing no, and you would feel great about your course management paying off.
