This summer I was testing out 3W 5W or 3H to add to the bag. With the trackman system I was getting club speeds of 140 top end with most 130-135mph.

116 is a weird flex.

Did you get the official word that you're a ******* too?
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

Distance is overrated in my book. The game is won 150 yards in

yes, and Id be miles off.. however, Ive never trained for it, so Im giving it a go now and seeing where it ends up. Like most sports its a question of not getting injured, swinging at high speed a lot is potentially going to fuk u up

I figured you'd have the latest and greatest and be fitted for your clubs.
honestly, I don't know if they wear out. Only my opinion, I dont think equipment makes more than a shot or twos difference in reality, unless its particularly ill suited to your swing

unless you are faster than Bryson, you have confused ball speed with club speed. 135 ball speed is about 90 club speed.

You can't swing faster than the average PGA Tour pro though. You can swing faster than the average PGA Tour pro's recorded swing speed teeing off during a sanctioned PGA Tour tournament event.

So can I. Doesn't mean those swinging 115mph on the tour can't swing faster than that. That's like saying I can throw faster than an MLB pitcher because he dialed it back to make sure he hit the strike zone. Doesn't mean he can't throw 97 mph.

no more meaningless than any other hobby/sport. Personally I think guys that go on car cruises are like a bunch of women comparing handbags. oh youve got an M5 here's my M5..

must be something in your life you enjoy and we can take the pi$$ out of?
