About 6-12 and will throw 2 Sleeves in when I get to 6.I will play a ball for 3 rounds or less if I scuff it up and then into the shag bag.

No. Find a PGA Pro and build with them. Too many swing thoughts results in no shot !

How long do you play a ball before retiring it?
OldGuyGolf replied to aguybadatgolf's topic in General Equipment Talk
Yep me too ! Into the Shag Bag. The only issue I have now at 75 is fewer are making it that far. -
Thanks everyone!

Totally agree !

I am 74 with with a 6.5 Hdcp and played Senior tees up until a little over a year ago. I started to lose distance again and was doing the Driver - 3 Wood routine on Par 4’s and getting very frustrated. I went on the USGA Site and Super Seniors can play the most forward tees ! I moved up and now hitting from 7-Wedge on all holes with a 6 Iron here and there on missed drives. Golf is fun again ! My Hdcp is down to 6.5 and on a good day I shoot my age !

I am 74 yrs old and the first time I held a club I was 8. It was a Hickory Stick from the next door neighbour and I broke his window on my 3rd shot. My dad had to get the glass and replace the window. I lost my allowance, 25 cents for weeks ! I was hooked ! I joined here because I love the game and get up to date, no BS reporting and opinions on The Game. Great job guys and fellow golfers ! Best unbiased source for what is new and what is coming.

Thank you and heading to the course shortly.

What Have You Bought Lately? (CHA - Club Ho's Anonymous)
OldGuyGolf replied to hckymeyer's topic in The Daily
I just ordered a Callaway MAVRIK OS A Wedge in Senior Flex. My irons are A Flex and I have lost about 10 yards with R shaft in my current wedge. -
I went to the RogueST MAX 7 W this year and it it as far as my 4 Hybrid. I like most on here was inconsistent with the hybrid. I hit the 7 about 170 and high with a soft landing. I am looking at my 5 W because I really don’t seem to use it much.

How often do you purchase new wedges/do they really change year/year?
OldGuyGolf replied to Jon Diamond's topic in Golf Clubs
I have Mack Daddy and Jaws. I play 4-5 rounds per week so I have groove tools and resharpen every 3-4 months and don’t play major tournaments so I don’t worry about the conformance only performance. Due to the amount I play I replace every couple of years. -
I have the Callaway ORG14 3 years now and only carry 13 clubs and it is destroying my putter grip. There are new bags that have 15 dividers and I will be buying one shortly ! I have mid-sized grips so this is a problem. Anyone suggest a good 15 bag ?
