Sure, if you're a scratch golfer. Which I am most certainly not. Like I said, I still got fitted by a trained/certified/stamped/approved pro. And I don't know if there is a price difference between that and the slo-mo thing. My point is that if you're not a scratch golfer and there is a difference maybe that difference is better spent on something like balls or beers.My buddy who is a scratch golfer looks at it like insurance - you pay a couple hundred bucks to ensure you have the correct shaft length, stiffness, club face, etc. for your specific swing speed before you sink $1k into a whole new set.
This. I took two sessions with a strike board, launch monitor, the whole nine yards, and demoed the clubs I wanted based on what felt good and I hit the best. The shop I went to threw the fitting in for free if you bought clubs at the end. If nothing else, especially for us hackers, golf is mental. If you're hitting clubs you know are "right," it's one less thing to bug you on a bad day.My buddy who is a scratch golfer looks at it like insurance - you pay a couple hundred bucks to ensure you have the correct shaft length, stiffness, club face, etc. for your specific swing speed before you sink $1k into a whole new set.
Or get new clubs like I did at the end of the year, with a similar discount so they can get them out of the store and move in the new stuff. Buy skiing and golfing equipment in the offseason when there are deals to be had.Buying new clubs is for suckers. Get last years model with a little wear and tear on them for half price and no discernible decrease in performance.
Can we still buy fur in America? Saw some really nice ones in Croatia, may have to find a dealer next time I’m overseas...What about a fur coat? But not a real fur coat . . . that's cruel.

If I don't have that fur hat by four o'clock, they're gonna take me down like Nixon.Can we still buy fur in America? Saw some really nice ones in Croatia, may have to find a dealer next time I’m overseas...
But would you walk 500 miles?You can. You can also buy a green dress, but not a real green dress, as that's cruel.
As @Jim123 said, you just added a third band to the mix.Never was a huge fan of TMBG...although the cartoon rendition of “Particle Man” on Animaniacs still cracks me up.
That’s big talk if you are gunning for the peaks at Big Sky, Whisler, Vail, Alta/Snowbird, etc.I picked up alpine touring kit for the winter. Going to earn my turns. Chairlift optional.
Such as? From what I can tell, the West Coast resorts that are open are making it work. Many of the Tahoe mountains have a reservation system to keep the numbers down.I want to go skiing this winter but it looks like all the good resorts will have annoying quarantine rules.
