It is the weirdest thing, I actually became a member of this site the same day I started reading it. But I "lurked" on other sites for quite some time. I never became a member because most of the people seemed to already know each other. This site actually invited me. Some where or other I read "Join the conversation." And they had a whole section dedicated to introducing yourself. So I did. It is so great. Beats the hell out of Facebook, where I have known the people for years or related to them, but for the most part, could careless about what they did today. Here, I have "Friends" that I would not know if they walked through the front door right now, unless they had their golf bag with them. I might know them then by the clubs that are in the bag, but I can spend hours talking about stuff I am interested in.
The only other site that I have participated in the Forums has to do with Off Roading and Land Rovers. Hence the RoverRick moniker. And honestly, I am not into it enough to participate more than once or twice a year. But here, I am approaching 1000 posts in 6 months, and have made some really good friends, well, at least they would be if I ever actually met them. Some of them maybe Mary Matalin/James Carville type friends, not to marry, but differing views but can agree to disagree. So Welcome, and join the conversation. And do not keep your opinion to yourself, no matter how wrong you actually are.

Hot! Or Wet. Or Wet and Hot.
Seriously I have found it very hard to find a time with conditions that make it fun to play. When its 36 and feels like 45 it's just brutal. I am in the simulators far far more than on the course these days.
But the courses are pretty nice.

TwoSolitudes,
I've had a nagging thought in the back of my head. Last time I was in Thailand, I remember seeing Fourteen clubs at reasonable prices. In the states they're absurdly expensive. How much does a set run over there? Also, are Miuras more common? I know Maruman are...

Miuras are easy to find. Maruman and Honma are common. Kasco is pretty big and PRGR (love those EGG woods). There is actually a Fourteen store in the big 'golf mall' here. I'll check out the prices for you.

I've had a nagging thought in the back of my head. Last time I was in Thailand, I remember seeing Fourteen clubs at reasonable prices. In the states they're absurdly expensive. How much does a set run over there? Also, are Miuras more common? I know Maruman are...
@wdgolf,
I had a visit with the Fourteen shop this morning. Full sets of the new models are running from 55,000 to 75,000 baht. (1800-2400 USD). They go way up from there- but I am guessing you don't want the gold plated ones!
I found two decent sets of used ones as well. Some TC1000 Forged for 19,000 (650USD) and HI-969's for 30,000 (1000USD).
Donno what they run for in the US, but they are not cheap here!

Thanks! That's pretty much on par with prices in the US then. I was in Golf Town yesterday and saw a Miura set for around 1700.
I go to Thailand every few years and was hoping to exploit their proximity to Japan, oh well. Thanks again.
