Zipper bag to keep personal items together is a good idea that I will use. Thanks, Aimee.

Check out Target, they have some cheap ones in the handbag area. Walmart also a good one for those.

Oh Man! You guys are talking about little cloth bags with zippers.
I read your posts, thought you meant ziploc bags and ran to Dakota Market. frown I'll be pulling out my Glad bag when I should be using a leather Givenchy pouch. blush

Welcome BMS...I just bought the Diablo driver as well...it should be here in a few days. Sounds like you've been doing pretty well if you're in the upper 30's low 40s for 9 holes. Nice.

Where do you play, is there a 9 hole course near you (I have one near me that I haven't been too in a while), or do you just play 9 at an 18 hole course?

How do you like the X22s?

Bill, yeah I first thought ZipLocs as that's what I use but sounds like we're making a fashion goof

Guys, you're ready to go thru airport security with your clear ziploc bags.

If you MUST have one of those little bags for your odds and ends, you can find them at most golf shops. They sell them just for you golfers that need such things. I know Lynn has one, it came with her golf bag in fact. Small zippered pouch, with a clip on it so it can be attached to her bag.

Yes, that's true, but I got one with a clip at Target for $5 instead of $25 that they charge when they call it a "golf" accessory.

Belated comments:

1. I am currently using ziplocs. Good thing is they're see-thru. Problem is they get holes and have to be replaced. A nuisance.

2. Is there anyone else here but Bill who has enough "class" to have "Givenchy" at the tip of their fingers for heckling purposes?

Well I picked up my new Diablo driver and 3w yesterday. Hope to head to the range this afternoon or tomorrow and try them out. Then I'll do a review of each.

I just received my Nickent 4DX 3 Ironwood on Tuesday, didn't get to the range yet, but I do get to use it tomorrow. Also, got my Dad's Callaway Driver, which may also be used tomorrow. Will definitely review each plus the course i play tomorrow.

Congrats, Klun! Tell us about it soon.

Anybody heard of Krank? A range buddy just got their driver -- no grooves. Supposedly a bunch of good players at his dad's ritzy club are using it.

Scott, how is Diablo? Have you tried it yet, huh? Huh?

I've heard of Krank golf, and their red driver. Talked to them abuot doing a review on one of their drivers, had it all set up, but then they never could figure out what shaft they were going to use in their newest driver, and nothing ever came of it. That was 2 years ago.

Ok hit the range BUT only after I got my exercise going on a 2+ mile jog...so needless to say it affected me a little more than I expected. Anyway, the major difference in these drivers is the noise..the Callaway is SILENT compared to the Cobra. Distance wise it was similar to the Cobra but the neutral bias is clearly visible in the shot shape compared to the Cobra. Want to retest them on a day when I'm better prepared.

Well, Scott, sounds like your energy was well spent on the jog, and your new driver experience has been prolonged by a day.

Scott, next time you get a chance, try hitting the new Cobra drivers. They are not loud at all. The sound just like all the other quite drivers on the market. Almost zero sound at impact. I think you'll be very surprised by the new S9-1 drivers. The Tour version is my favorite of the two. Much smaller footprint, and much taller club face.

Nice setup, BrownPenguin. In a less stiff version, I could be happy with it. (Got the same driver with R shaft.) Is that a 3w with the S300 or a hybrid? (Too lazy to look on the Titleist site.)

May we address you with a less formal name than BrownPenquin? DT, short for DirtyTux, perhaps?

Don, I hit the s9-1 while in Tampa a few weeks back. Nice driver but I didn't hit it as well as I did my older Cobra. Didn't notice a huge sound difference though, but I didn't have mine to compare it to.

Ok, I REALLY like the Nickent hybrid. Didn't have to hit it that many times, but when I did, it felt good and hit good. Ask Chris how I was hitting the Callaway X460 driver (especially towards the end) grin
