ShopTalk: SRVII 12*

2002-07-02 Thread David Rees
I picked up a SRVII 12* and put it together on a Rifle 5.5 shaft, no tip-trimming, spined at 12oclock. Using the plug that came with the SRVII, shaft-insertion depth ended up around 1.5 or so (didn't measure). Will butt-trim to get the SW around D2-3. Hopefully will hit it tomorrow morning in

Dave and Tom: So it looks like we have a bit of differing opinions here. Dave, you would suggest that the COR, for a given clubhead/ball combo, is close to a constant for all clubhead speeds. Tom seems to indicate that the COR is non linear enough to make a significant difference. It seems a

I think you'll like it, if the head is the only variable in the equation. But it isn't; you're also looking at different shafts. I have a Bang SRV-II 10* on an SK Fiber Pure Energy shaft. It was in my bag for the past month. I'd have to give it a very good grade, though I'm about to swap it out

Guys, there is a booklet that comes out every years called "Golf Balls". It compares every brand / compression of golf ball on the market at 80MPH / 90MPH / 100mph plus in the last issue thatI got they also compared drivers hitting just one type/style/name brand

ROTFLMAO! Yeah, you're right. I'm not a computer maven but I have been running them for a long time . . . mostly PC's though. Mac'er's absolutely love them. PC'ers are mostly ambivalent, I think. The reasons I started all this, aside from the most recent crash, are that I recently purchased a

Tom, I agree with you son, Micro$oft has never gotten it right, and I suspect, never will. But he also needs to know that MAC is *not* the only alternative. Especially since he sounds like a bright individual. I would like to suggest he look into LINUX. Ignore the false lies circulated by

Dave: Your explanation sounds reasonable to me. I will have to have a look at that article. I haven't read the Part III book yet. My whole purpose of this question is this. If a company can make an at the legal limit COR club that can withstand a 130 mph swing speed, and the COR varies only a

Hi Ted, David, Arnie: I build all my putters to Stiff XStiff range, otherwise Im afraid as Arnie pointed out you begin to run out of butt diameter at the throat of the putter grip. This we found out the expensive way with a brand-newLH Scotty Cameron Newport II Pro Platinum, which we
