Love my Calloway Epic Speed. Put the Tensei White AV 88(I think)g shaft on it. Probably my favorite driver/shaft combo I've ever had. It's not the longest driver I've had, but it is definitely forgiving. I'll probably stick with Calloway if they kept the same club head shape.

I just picked up a Callaway Paradym 10.5 with a fuji Ventus TR Red 60 shaft.

Can't hit it until late next week since I had a Spinal Ablation procedure yesterday.

Take care of your spine fella's.

Good luck on your recovery. Keep us posted on how that goes. I have a nerve in my neck I’m considering doing that for.

I have had the RDial Frequency Ablation done 4 times now.

It usually last about a year for me until the nerves regenerate fully.

It helps a lot to keep me on the course.

Damn sorry to hear that.. get better my friend...

Also quick question on that.. is that strictly from golf or prior injury??

I want to say golf since it flared up a few years ago.

But 14 years of football and semi pro softball probably contributed as well.

My body is a mess, nine broken bones, 5 knee surgeries including a TKR, spinal fusion, RA and on and on.

Most days I am relatively pain free, but I have my moments.

Bopper - do you have a line on a good source for used ventus shafts?


I did, but unfortunately he passed away a couple of months ago.

The position has good posture for golf.

The collisions, every play.

I was a guard-


of the water bottle.

Honestly, as much as I love the game, a part of me wish that I never played football.

I know that I had at least 2 concussions.

I didn't touch a golf club until I was 35. It was tough to learn since I am barrel chested, but I love it now.
