The bounce is what gets me.
I went with Edison Wedges as they have more player friendly bounce and "multi-plane" sole.
1 from UGA and 2 from UF
Would love 2 and 2,

Interesting. Too hard? Too soft? Have you tried all 3 Tour models?
The Tour S has REALLY good reviews.
I like the feel of the Tour, but I get better response from the Tour X.
Have not tried the Tour S.

Yes. Next to the Belle Chase bridge and the canal

Okay, I have played that one. Just did not remember the name.
Only remember a few of the holes. I do remember one of the levee holes.

Was that the course by the belle chase tunnel and industrial canal?
Wow this thread is a stroll down memory lane. Good times.

Wow, that's a blast from the past. I had forgotten about that one.
Living on the West Bank, I would play Brechtel over that one for sure.

Okay, so which TD genius is yelling, “light the candle!” ??
I guess “mash potatoes” is so 2010.
Carry on.

Better chance it's 4 big pop-ups.
I played football, baseball, and basketball since I was 9. I was introduced to golf at 14. It was love at first swing! Fifty-one years later and I'm still chasing that little white ball.
Could not get my kids interested at all, and I was not going to push them. My daughter has great hand-eye coordination, but thought golf was too boring. She played baseball, softball, and lacrosse. Flash forward to her young married life and she took lessons with her hubby. I’m so happy for that.
Yes, Swinging Mike Club would be better option. Wish I had the extra $1000.

Yes, I went to a practice round and brought my camera. It was awesome.
Probably did not take enough photos but the place is so cool, I did not want to waste time on photos and not just enjoy the atmosphere.

Need to do this at ALL concert venues NO PHONES.

Which L.A.B. putter?

Posted by mikedatyger on 4/13/26 at 10:22 am
I “think” I won a LAB putter of my choice from a Masters contest.
Received a notification, but I’m not sure yet.

NOTHING official until this week. 2nd Swing golf, so should be legit. (?)

Got me thinking, I have no idea which LAB I would even consider. I have never held one or putted with one. I currently use a Bettinardi Mallet.
Funny, I asked Ai and it suggested the DF3, which would be the easiest transition from what I have to a ZT-styled putter. Get to choose shaft, length, grip, offset, etc.

Which LAB would you choose and why?

See that lead leg? It's in front of the plate by a good margin.

Not the same at bat, not even the same game.
Uh, good try.

I mean, that's halfway to his ankle.

AFTER THE PLATE!
It's a breaking ball. It BREAKS down. In that image the ball is past the plate and just below knee level.
Find the image of the ball before the plate, draw a line. It's over the knee and drops below it AFTER the plate.
It’s a strike.
We won.
Doesn’t matter.
Breaking ball. It drops down to the dirt after it crosses the plate. Looks like a strike. Yes, delayed call, but he did that off and on throughout the game.
Jay just trying to rally the troops.



I combined two images … the ball before the plate and after the plate.

Jemele Hill says, “hold my beer.”
Yorke has been VERY disappointing.
“Big Pop-Up” has become big fly or pop up machine.

Thoughts on df3

Find someone who knows how to fit you for it.
They get good results when you have the right lie angle and shaft length for YOUR stroke. The built in forward press can throw some people off. Hit or miss if you pick one off the rack.
