  1. I'm green with envy but I'll enjoy what you post on your trip, wish I could do it
  2. Going to the range is conducive to hitting balls like a robot, I like playing with 3 balls off the T then pick the worst position ball and play the 3 balls again and again from the worst lie until holed. This is something I wished the teaching Pro I had before taught me but all he did was try to get me to hit a bloody 7 seven iron bloody dumb I never realized I should have been conducting an interview, yeah I have a low opinion of Golf pro's...
  3. About the 12th of July I'm going to stay with my brother for 2-3 or 4 weeks as he's house sitting and wants little brother for company, it's good because there's a Country Golf course 10mins down the road that he's a member of and so I'm planning on practicing lots. No one there during the week so we will go practice on a few holes, I'm planning on practicing with 4 different drivers with an extra 4 shafts and some hybrids irons. Got Mizuno Taylormade Titleist Callaway so variety is the spice of life my bag is Mizuno STZ driver Mizuno 923 4 hybrid 923 6 hybrid Mizuno 9iron Mizuno MP32 Sandiron or Ping eye 2 Sandiron might try my Cobra Trusty rusty plus 4-5 other favs looking fwd to practice on a proper Golf course instead of my backyard net...
  4. Caro Emerald A Night Like This Not sure why but I can't add the video
  5. Had that in Queensland Australia was playing a round with a mate who's a teaching Pro and we quit at the 16th, we only lasted that long because we were on a cart and the Bikini drinks girls and that's the worst heat and humidity I've ever experienced
  6. Yeah your correct but in my defense I was trying to explain something to wifey and was thinking about that sorry
  7. Practice today with 2 Mizuno 9irons, first one weighs 430gr swingweight D1 steel shaft second 385gr C4 graphite. Did a chipping comparison about 7metres and liked the 430 gram much better and easier to control, 385 gram felt like I had no room for error if I didn't Hit the ball perfect it went nowhere whereas might change the C4 swingweight to match the D1 but 45 grams is a lot of lead tape which I think is a waste...
  8. I've never seen that before, I buy everything after the bidding has stopped as the highest bidder. I've been offered a cheaper price with all watchers if no one bid because it's a high starting price, but custom and GST importing into NZ is paid by me. But I thank one and all for your feedback because I can now express my position better and hopefully the seller will feel comfortable selling to me
  9. Ok understand where you're coming from, when I ask sellers to open Global shipping I say that as long as the club shipped is as described I accept if it's damaged by the shippers at my cost out of a100 plus delivered NONE have been damaged by fedex or DHL it's all comes back to the seller telling a load of porkies that's Private and Corporate sellers, that's been my experience in the last 5 years or so...
  10. There's no such thing as a RETURN if you give an honest description with photos, the other thing is eBay give a100% money back guarantee but I'm still concerned buying on ebay but I've no choice because Golf clubs are expensive in NZ nearly double than what I'm buying on ebay. Last time I bought online in NZ the irons were badly marked from hitting on rough ground and driving range, the seller said it was normal wear and tear I sold them the next week... Yeah I'm happy to pay international shipping and shipping takes from 6 business days to 40 days, I accept that but also DHL is miles quicker than fedx. Fedx keep deliveries sitting in there international Departure hub for weeks and nobody knows WHY plus online the tracking number says it's delivered but it's still sitting in the USA crazy wouldn't use fedx in a pink fit lol...
  11. I buy my golf equipment on eBay from the USA, some private sellers won't ship to me in New Zealand because they say it's problematic for them? I don't see it if they honestly describe the golf club there's no reason for a return plus the added shipping cost I pay, I've had damaged and the wrong club shipped and I got a refund as I should. Would you ship internationally? If not why not ???
  12. Compared to you I'm great Bone wise but the interior of my guts is not happy after Gangrene attack from a Treatment injury 5years ago, I'm 2 years younger which helps plus One day a month I feel like I can play but until I can play more often it's chipping practice in my back yard
  13. My practice recently is strength training and swinging my hybrid trying to facilitate a LATE release, listening to the Wishon utube videos and others that will help with more distance as I've always been a early release guy plus today I cut a baker's dozen branches and cut them to 2 feet lengths.... Lunch with a mate tomorrow
  14. Interesting grip style of change, I've not tried the baseball grip but I'm thinking I need to try something different. Cheers
  15. Tuesday went to the driving range hit 30 balls with my Mizuno 923's 20" 4 hybrid and 29" 6 hybrid,I hit them much better Dispersion wise than I thought I would since I've not had a full swing of anything for 6 months. Planning to try that once weekly going fwd, I've had some bad knee issues but improving so hope to do more
