Lowest score was a 76, highest was an 83.

re: gloves - Try Hirzl.

They're REALLY good gloves, I love mine. Super durable, work well in both hot and cold / wet weather, nicely grippy.

I also re-gripped my driver and went up to a midsize grip +2, which I think helped my driving. I'm going to get the rest of my clubs regripped with mids as well now I think, it made such a nice difference. I've never used midsize grips before.
That is exciting to hear! Glad you had such a stellar week of golf! Very jealous!

I will check the gloves out! Sounds promising! Thanks! Any thoughts on golf travel bags for airlines? Everything I have seen are about $350 and I don't want to drop that kind of money.

I have been thinking about regripping my driver as well. Its pretty thin and have wondered if I put a thicker grip on there if it would generate better / consistent results. I know Bryson and John Daley have talked about that before which started to make me think.


Update on the 7 hybrid! I love it! Mind you, I was hitting in a control golf sim environment and not out on the course, but it felt great and the tear drop tracker for the ball was pure! I was hitting consistent around 150-160 and as high as 180 and as low as 130 if I need to add more or take off some. I think this would be a great club in my bag and I am pretty excited about it! Will report back tomorrow after I play with it tonight on the course.
