Never had an issue here. Just avoid the gun counter on Fridays and 1st of the month - everyone is spending their checks.

In for 1. Thanks OP, been on the lookout for months. Just checked their site the other day and would have missed this, thanks!

Any word on .308 complete uppers? Looking for a 20” for 6 months and can’t find any.

Ok thank you - so he was playing an event (competitive tournament) and he had to turn off his Xbox as it was dinner time. Could that have triggered it?

I am lanky with long arms too. I was surprised I didn’t extra length. I’ve been playing 1” longer clubs for 20 years. So between too long and too light no wonder I struggled.

This was the exact logic we used - irons I am handsy more often so we went midsize. Woods I can’t get hands through so we used standard even though they may measure out smaller than I should have. If I ever get the hands issue worked out I’ll get a midsize grip on the woods for $10. I’ll be thrilled to spend that money in that case but for now I’m expecting to need the help the smaller grip will give.

We talked about this. One issue I have is getting too handsy with irons and not handsy enough with driver. So even though my hand size would point to midsize, we kept driver/3W standard grip size to help get hands through. So it was definitely more than “big hands mean you need midsize” automatic decision.

Your 2nd paragraph describes me well. I know where the problems are. The minor adjustments in fit we made should be good but shouldn’t interfere with what I know I need to do to work back to my “good” swing as I get my game back.

Correct - I edited the reply - what I put in was inaccurate based on the confusing order form. I actually called in to clarify they didn’t order me +1.75 and they told me the description is just to say how much you COULD add if you wanted. None was actually added.

COMMENT Jan 24 '21
My fault on a misleading reply with the +1.75 - I typed in what I though was a model description but actually was just a note in the order form that the max length you can order is +1.75. Shows how much I know about this stuff!

COMMENT Jan 24 '21
Great point - I actually called back because I definitely did not intend to add 1.75. What I typed in above was the item description on the order form and it confused me. My order was for standard length based on lengths of my arms.

For the Sim 2 Max irons I got True Temper Dynamic Gold Max Length + 1.75 with S300 flex.
Edit: that max length +1.75 was a description of how much could be added to length not what was added. Length is standard.

Thanks this resonated with me. There is no way I will play enough to dramatically change my swing. I have some known issues that I’ve had for years that I battle, and so I’m just playing defense against those. I believe what I learned in my fitting will help with that battle. I am not going to be shooting scratch or single digit HC golf ever. I’m not even going to try to do that, as I have friends that good and I know what it takes even naturally talented golfers to stay at that level - I do not choose to invest that much time. I have other hobbies and things that will prevent that. Not worried about it though - I just want to stay in play and maybe help my buddies win a scramble every now and then!

Sorry to hear. I was able to make consistent contact at the fitting and patterns that I’ve had my whole golf career clearly showed up. My pattern is... don’t play a lot... bad slice with occasional pull hook. When I play a lot I get the path and hands in synch and it’s a nice little power draw. I also miss hit to the toe ALOT. I do not expect to play so much that I’ll cure all that ails so just need something that helps me battle my foibles when I play a few times per month when a buddy needs a fill in or has an outing spot. I probably spent too much on clubs for that low of frequency but given I’ll probably keep these 20 years too, I can live with that.

Some great points raised... I had a few reasons for getting the fitting first. The main one will probably get me downvoted to oblivion lol. I have played the same clubs for 20 years. Granted, I had long periods (years) where I didn’t play at all. My kids are now older and enjoy playing, so I’m coming back! I was a 15 handicap back in the day although now I’m beyond rusty. So... main reason: I was looking to upgrade clubs and really liked the look of the new Sim 2 irons. Golf Galaxy (downvotes incoming ik) has a 3X reward points promo through today, which works out to nice little discount. I guess I might not be informed or in-the-loop about some of the negative on GG, but as a lefty golfer I have been blown away at the lefty selection. And they don’t talk down to a hacker like me. (I learned to golf hitting balls at a barn across a corn field). So I felt comfortable there and wanted those reward points which will end up being around $300 or more.
I was really happy with the fitting, which maybe isn’t surprising as I’ve never had one so can’t compare. Maybe I’ll get my lessons there too! (More downvotes incoming lol).
Edit: I did end up buying the Sim 2 irons and 3W Rescue but not driver. I liked the Ti 3 much better.

I had a similar problem but it was tied to an issue with the original non-XSX version being bought via an Amazon digital code followed by MS store purchase of the Upgrade. Got refunds on both (+1 to both Amazon and MS) and then just bought the full XSX version. All good since. New rule for me is all games will be bought direct from MS to minimize the hassle.
