People aren't talking enough about the Lethal golf ball imo.  It might be the best product they release this year.

Agreed 100 percent.  I wrote in another thread about it.  It is a phenominnal ball.  During our Pro Am round with Sean O'Hair, I asked him how he liked it. Without a hesitation, he said He loved it, and its the best ball he's ever played, bar none.  He loves the feel and spin off the wedges but the fact that softness doesn't sacrifice any distance off the tee.

"During the pro am with Sean"

Listen to this guy! Haha glad it was a great trip! I too love the Lethal but I really can't get a feel for a ball until its warmer.

Oh I should have added to that sentence..."when it was 73 degrees"  LOL!!

But I agree with you, now that I'm back in the freezing sleeting state of Maryland, I probably want get to play it until May

Think positively:  April!

I would think that MD, being south of New England, would have more favorable conditions earlier than us. We're usually out there in March when things start hitting 50 more frequently.

Ceasar, I've got to find a reason to make a day road trip down to you this summer, it be great to meet you and compare all the great TMAG gear.  And as you probably saw my form from some of the pics posted, grab a lesson while I'm there.

I was being a bit sarcastic. We can get some really nice days out of nowhere in January. February is almost always a no go.  But in March we begin to get the itch.  I wrote a 12 months of golf in the DC/Baltimore area on a thread about a year or so ago, and part of it was like this.

March: We see the forecast calling for a 50 degree day on a mid march saturday. We immediately start calling/texting our buddies. "It's going to be FIFTY on Saturday, wanna go play?" Response is usually  "HELL YEAH"

November: We see forecast calling for a high of 51 on a mid November Saturday  A buddy will call/text and say  "hey wanna go play Saturday?"  Response is usuall "Are you Crazy!! It's ONLY going to be 50!!!"

So it's all a matter of perspective.  But yes, Mid March we can start counting on getting some decent weather, it will be interupted by the occassional cold and rare snow fall.  But the days are longer by then, usually not dark until 7:30 or so.

Hey, don't leave us hanging like that now..

ill have a thread up once i get some LM numbers vs last years 3hl. but ill give you one more piece of info that i hadnt realized when i hit them in Naples, the sound. So much better with the carpenter steel this year, not a loud ting but a muted smash like youve annihilated the ball with a hot melted driver.

on another note i have a big delivery coming in Thursday with stage 2 woods, stage 2 drivers, and R1 drivers....demo time!

LOL!!  I'll be sure and keep them tied tight   Although I'm sure by then, you'll have a few pairs.   And as far as the Super TP, a man has to know his limitations...I'll try and manage my lovely R1 first !!

Well I was the weakest player in the group, but they still found a good set up in the R1 for me, that delivered greatly improved flight and distance.

I have the T3 head, set to 11 degrees, two notches left of High, Sole Plate 2* closed and 10 g weight in heel and 1g in toe.  So I guess you'd call that about as antislice as you can get     But it worked, I was hitting high weak fades/slices during warmup.  By the end, I was hitting draws with it, and having to learn to aim more right.

I have the RIP Phenom shaft 55g R flex and a Winn Dri Tec red grip.

Btw great pics. Thanks.

Question, couldn't make out the mill on the tour iron. Is it just hard to see in the pic?

those tours do not have a milling pattern that i can see, i can make mine out with ease when i take a picture

Compared to what was at demo day, I can see it on the toe but very little so t may be across the face, the website said tours will be milled
