The tear was right on the back of my hand where the velco is and it teared along that line as i was adjusting the glove on my hand. It was really unfortunate, but I have to say that when I contacted TaylorMade about this, they immediately set me up with a representative who got my information and are sending me a replacement for it. I'm hoping this is just a one off and i'll be more careful about adjusting (pulling the end of that side).

I generally play a decent amount of golf (averaged about 50 rounds a year living in Chicago), and I typically practiced at least 2-3x per week.

Back then I chose to get fit for irons and woods, but not wedges because I didn’t want to test wedges off a mat.

It is the shop 80% of serious players go to here. Fitting was about an hour on a sim. Driver, FWs, hybrid, and irons. Multiple shafts on clubs and what not, nothing special. \n\nLeft with his recommendations (didn’t buy anything yet) and then it kinda dawned on me, she only really swung 2 (and a 3rd iron for 5 swings) brands of clubs. \n\nHe had her swing Callaway Apex’s, and Taylor Made Qi35’s. Like I mentioned before there was a Tour Edge iron she swung for comparison, but that was it. She tried both those brands in Driver, woods and irons. The Taylor Mades were both the most comfortable to swing and had the best spray chart. So she “likes” those. \n\nMy question is, is that normal to only try a couple brands. I completely get that no local shop can have every brand and option to swing. We are 2/3hrs from any of the PGA stores (or similar), where I know there will be a lot more options. \n\nBut does more options just lead to paralyzes by analyzes.

That's not necessarily \"release\" but similar. Which would make sense.\n\nI've resigned myself to the reality that most amateurs (including myself) will never know if they are in the right or wrong grip size. There isn't even a standard \"midsize\" among manufacturers.\n\nI do find the current fad of going to jumbo size grips to be hilarious.

The size of grip isn’t going to have a massive impact on your swing, just get what’s comfortable. The +4 grips exist because there’s a large contingent of golfers that find “standard” a little small. For me, I really love a solid alignment stick running down the bottom side of the grip. \n\nThe biggest thing a grip impacts is club building. Grip weights can vary quite a bit and that can impact swing weight. Grip weights can vary a surprising amount simply based on the color of the grip as well. \n\nIf you want to maximize the performance you gain from grips, replace them every year. There is proof that old grips do cost you distance. I would also argue that you want grips you can comfortably use for how much you ma practice or play in a day. ZCords are hard abrasive grips, which may be great for sweat and performance. However, if your grip is making things hurt (skin, hands, joints), use something softer.

I’m not looking for anything brand new or top-of-the-line, but I’d like to get into something more modern with better feel and forgiveness. My budget is capped at around $450 and I’m totally fine going the used route through places like Facebook Marketplace, eBay, GolfWRX, or Play It Again Sports.\n\nSince I’m still developing my game, forgiveness is my top priority, but I also don’t want irons that feel harsh or clunky like my current set does. I’d prefer something game-improvement or players-distance that balances forgiveness with a decent feel. I’m not picky about set makeup—5-PW works fine since I’m comfortable replacing longer irons with hybrids. Shaft-wise, I’ll probably stick with steel in either regular or stiff, depending on weight, and I’m curious if there are any stock shafts or models I should avoid as a newer player. I’m also fairly tall, so I’m wondering how picky I should be about lie angle when buying used.\n\nSome models I’ve been looking at include the Ping G-series (G15, G20, G25, maybe G30 if I can find one in range), TaylorMade Rocke","date":"2025-08-30","sentiment":"positive"},{"productId":"prod_224","source":"Reddit","sourceUrl":"https://reddit.com/r/GolfGear/comments/1pz2br7/used_cobra_biocell_vs_wilson_staff_launch_pad_2s/","author":"u/SuperJono74","rating":null,"text":"Hey guys! 1 st year playing golf, and am looking for a replacement to my Tour Edge EXS Irons.
