The reason that wedges are darker is so the sun doesn't reflect back into your eyes. Wouldn't say I really cared either way but the reflection thing does happen and is the reason I use them.

I'm spewing. I bought new Vokeys last week in Jet Black because I wanted something low glare, a few days later they release the Slate Blue and they look beautiful.

See you on the 9th green at 9
I've never had an issue with wedge glare. Only the putter from time to time. But I can see the appeal.

The golf industry wouldn't try to suck golfers in like that though.
Not only does it stop glare, they're guaranteed to make you hit longer, straighter and make you last longer in the sack.

Tour Edge Hot Launch 4-PW
Mizuno 2 and 3 irons. Love them and will buy all Mizuno irons next time around.
56 degree Callaway SW. We have a love hate relationship.
And a big, useless lime Green, horrendously expensive Nike Driver that sits in the bag as an ornament as we have commenced divorce proceedings.
Srixon Z star balls.
Handicap has blown out from 19 to 28 of late, due to health, but starting to hit them a lot better the last few weeks.

I would have agreed until it happened to me.
Your driver is your mistress remember? Kick it to the curb and move on. You'll get no judgement from me.

I've been blinded by a 60* chrome lob wedge. Give me matte or raw wedges anyday.
Just noticed that Matsuyama is using the Callaway Epic driver. Amazing from what I thought was a Srixon staff player.
Craven Morehead, maybe worth a little wine and dine?
The Epic seems to be 'the' driver on tour at the moment.

Can't go wrong with drivers this season. I'm hanging out to try the Mizzy ST190G. Looks a gorgeous driver and premium shafts for no up charge.

ahh, she'd only hurt me and leave me like the others.
I have some sort of mental block on Woods on the course of late.
All my mates are hitting big drivers, 3, 5, rescue woods of the deck, but when I put one in my hand it never feels right.
I'm booked into a sports psychol....no I'm not...it'll pass in time.

If someone could devise a driver that puts the ball into the middle of the fairway that would be great.
What I've been having a sniff around at is the older Titleist 905s or t. Smaller 400cc head and great flight. I love my v-steel 3 wood and my forum research says these are a similar club. Would a driver with a smaller head help you?

I went to Golfbox yesterday to pick up some new sticks... also got my hands early on the new ProV1's, looking forward to giving them a try. Hopefully I like them better than I did the 2017.
Anyone got some recommendations for a style of putter that suits split grip putting? I put almost like a hockey style.

Was waiting for it haha.
The split grip helps me feel more secure, accurate and in control of the putt. I feel I am more stable as I putt rather than hands together where I feel more flimsy with less control. I take a bit of an open stance too.
