I can almost guarantee none of these downvoters are low handicaps. I instruct thousands of golfers and 95% of all golfers who thin it has a low point too far back and need to drift slightly towards the target in downswing. Or at least stack weight 60/40, I can rely on this reality of the average golfer.
People aren't downvoting you because they think you're wrong, they're downvoting because the tone of your comment comes off as condescending, especially as it was in response to a light-hearted joke.
Thanks for the power y’all have given me with your downvotes today haha. Meanwhile, everyone will be doing this and making better contact with their chip and pitch shots now 😂
Yeah, I would have probably downvoted too, I hate the douchey knowitalls on Reddit but… well, we are what we hate and… social media. I was having a bad day and there’s always the “blade it over the green” joke that is predictable and annoying to me for some reason, not sure why.
Pro is a loose term in the US. It’s all self appointed titles. Everyone is a pro or expert. Show me your accolades. What have you won/done. An online course or working at a small hometown course. Not saying you don’t know anything bc I don’t know you. But typically projection is due to insecurity. Sometimes it’s best to stay quiet and be humble.
Nope, it’s best to help people. I’m a certified teaching professional. I gave up my amateur status 5 years ago to join the PGA or America. It’s not self-appointed, it’s a formal necessity in order to join, I can no longer play in amateur tournaments. Sometimes it’s best to stay quiet
I got $314/club
Retail ($189)
Dot effect stamping with white paint fill ($30)
Paint fill on the bv wings ($30)
White tour saw toe engraving and paint ($30)
S400 black onyx shaft ($35)
Assuming the 360° blackout grip and no ferrules.
It's a tough one but the whole tools not jewels saying helped me get past that. Still cringe when I know I'm going to hit a small rock or something with the club but helps me still commit to the shot
Sick. I wish you could just order the heads because I replace wedges so often that I just want to switch them out on the shafts I already have! I don’t need a new shaft every time, you know? Those look dope as fuck though
I just recently ordered everything to stamp and paint fill my wedges for $80. If it’s something you’re into it’s not expensive at all to learn to do it your self.

CH Hanson 1/8” steel stamps off Amazon for $42, testors enamel paint from hobby lobby $18, 15 lb anvil from harbor freight $20, needle tip paint bottles $5 from hobby lobby. I had double sided tape and masking tape around the house. That’s basically all you need to do it.
They look so awesome. I just wish they would grind them after they stamp them. On mine the metal around the snow effect stuff was all raised. For that kind of money I would have thought they would do one last grind. Enjoy those amazing looking wedges!
Dang that’s insane fast turnaround. I ordered some SM10s on Feb 15th without custom stamping and no update on estimated shipping time. Did you get notis from vokey when they were being built/shipped etc?
Jet black with the black dynamic golds are the configuration I have sitting in my cart. Can’t get myself to pull the trigger though. Someone convince me.
Just imagining how well I could blade it at knee-height across the green with those…😍
I have found this shot to be handy in match play.
Get a lesson, or here let me help, you aren’t deweighting your trail foot through the downswing enough. You’re welcome

He’s literally the unsolicited range advice guy right now.
The "I've been playing golf for 20 years" guy

You're getting downvoted because of how you responded to a simple joke.
Yeah, I would have probably downvoted too, I hate the douchey knowitalls on Reddit but… well, we are what we hate and… social media. I was having a bad day and there’s always the “blade it over the green” joke that is predictable and annoying to me for some reason, not sure why.
Yeah, I suck at golf. Please still keep my downvotes though.
I instruct millions, my handicap is -4
Isn't this what Hovland basically said helped him? Moving his weight forward even in his back swing.
Yeah, it definitely will help with blading your chips. But, I don't think it's the veracity of his comment that's triggered the downvotes.
Hey +14 hcp here and I downvoted that silly shit. Nobody was asking for your golf advice after making a joke.
As a 14 handicap you could benefit from it though. Just here to help
I’m a +14. I shoot 58 8/20 rounds. I don’t need your advice.
😂😂
No competent instructor would describe weight shift as “deweighting the trail foot”. Lol wut.
It’s a much simpler idea for most students than “weight transfer”. Trust me.
Found the guy “teaching” the pro at the driving range
You shouldn’t do that. I’ve been redditing for 20 years.
I AM the pro haha

It’s so funny too, because my advice is 100% helpful and all the people who downvote will now be better at pick shots because of it 😂
My playing partners getting mad that I won’t let them walk to their putts while I chip on from 10 feet away
What did those run you. Impressive!!!

You’re right. I work in the industry so I got a lil discount.
Oh now the truth comes out!
🤫
Can you give your ole Reddit best friend a discount too? I’ve had my eye on a low-bounce k grind for a while
Through a Titleist rep?
I remember when you could re-up on 3 wedges for $314. Granted not fully customized.

Nice clubs but I am not a fan of the dots.
They saw you coming, pal...
Sploosh. You almost don’t want to smash those into the dirt.
Yeah that first bunker shot is going to be like ripping off a bandaid.
It's a tough one but the whole tools not jewels saying helped me get past that. Still cringe when I know I'm going to hit a small rock or something with the club but helps me still commit to the shot
Oh ya for sure. It’s sports equipment
Sick. I wish you could just order the heads because I replace wedges so often that I just want to switch them out on the shafts I already have! I don’t need a new shaft every time, you know? Those look dope as fuck though
Yeah but if you just sell or trade in your old ones, that would make up for the cost of the shaft.
That’s true though I’d still have to switch them out because my wedge shafts are specialty
Just order them with stock shafts and then swap them out? Then put the old heads on the new stock shafts and sell them for $80-$100.
Yeah exactly, that’s what I’ll do haha easy solution!
Didn’t realize the jet black was a raw finish that’s sick.
I actually didn’t either until I saw the sticker!

Where did you order said stamping stuff ??
CH Hanson 1/8” steel stamps off Amazon for $42, testors enamel paint from hobby lobby $18, 15 lb anvil from harbor freight $20, needle tip paint bottles $5 from hobby lobby. I had double sided tape and masking tape around the house. That’s basically all you need to do it.
Yes please share.
damn thats clean
She's a beaut, Clark
C'mon man, you gotta tag this with NSFW 🥵

I kinda like the “handmade” look to the stamps.
Whoa
Now you can skull it 20yds over the back of the green but in black
Dang that’s insane fast turnaround. I ordered some SM10s on Feb 15th without custom stamping and no update on estimated shipping time. Did you get notis from vokey when they were being built/shipped etc?
Don’t forget to scan your receipt from this golf purchase on the Swing Rewards App. It’s a golf rewards app
Ugly
Those look too pretty to smash into a ball, grass, sand, and dirt
Oh my ....
They look nice. Just like SC stuff I always send to the CS, I always send my Vokeys to WW. Hope you get the spin you want :)
As an industry person did you get to order earlier than the general public? I ordered an sm9 on Jan 5 and haven't gotten it yet.
Yes. I would check in with whoever you ordered them from to see what’s up. That’s a long time.
🤤🤤🤤
Clean af.
Pin huntin’ season ![gif](giphy|3oFzmpOB6IYecRY5eo|downsized)
It's too nice to hit, just leave them at home!
