where do you swing them at? EW? How can you tell if you are all over by hitting the ball into a screen 4 feet in front of you?

I've always wondered this. I even did it with my irons. I couldn't tell shite
The BR EW has a working simulator. You can see the ball flight and they even have a line tracing its flight.

demo them and go to a range.

i'll demo clubs for a couple weeks sometimes just to mix it up

eta: i also try and purchase demo'd clubs. sometimes you can find them that are barely used and get much cheaper

The Dick's Sporting Goods has a simulator as well. I don't think they are as nice about letting people use it though.

its free. they have used clubs or demo clubs in bags. just ask them to demo it.

they will take your credit card number down.

and you bring it back in a week or whatever

some charge you for the club and reimburse when its returned, but that shouldn't be a big deal for a baller

obviously the one in Metairie is closer, but i don't think they have a simulator. May have to try it out in BR

EW in Metairie definitely doesn't have one either

I think they have an hourly rate on it. Might not charge if you're buying a club. The EW here usually doesn't care if you hit, as long as it's not busy.

they charge by the hour if youre playing a round of 18 on it... if you just wanna swing a club a few times they are cool with that fo free.

I shot 115 at Pebble about a year ago..... thru 15

yep... it gives you a general area of where your ball needs to hit on the mat. The speed is tough as shite to get down. Its fun for a rainy day... You do get a lot of WTF looks when walking in the front door with you golf bag and shoes in hand though.
