Have a magnificent hump day MGS!

Morning all! Congrats to all the testers announced this morning, should be a fun one to watch! @ZoonORama Sorry to hear about the hands. At times I can relate to the same aches. Getting old sucks! Have a great Tuesday spies!

I would say greens fees have gone up depending on the amenities and the area where they are located. Interesting to see the various rates from different parts of the US. Here in the south Dayton OH area, I have some amazing private club courses nearby that are "member only" but would easily be north of $100 to play if lucky enough to know someone. The nicer public courses are anywhere from $60-$75 riding 18. If I drive about 30-40 minutes away there are some great rates at some decent public courses where you can play 18 on the weekend for $45 or less. Those are the courses I started up playing golf again on last year. I like them. Will probably try the nicer public tracks close to me this year. They have decent annual membership packages ($2000 unlimited w/cart) that, if I like the course & service, would be tempting to look into down the road.

Morning ya'll Fairly nice weekend we had here in SW Ohio. Sunday was little cool and breezy but still sunny out. Nothing special to report from the weekend. I did get to the range and worked a few things. Mowed the lawn on Saturday. Played some Diablo IV and Road to the Masters. Also tuned in to see Scottie on top of the leader board again...man that guy is good. But Nelly was like "hold my beer" and won her 5th in a row. Crazy. Have a great start to the week MGS. @Rob Person Be safe out there @Josh Parker Feel better soon

Good Thursday Morning Spy friends! Figured I would start my day with a morning post. Finally got my gluten-free bagels from Trader Joe's and I am enjoying it this morning with some everything seasoning, and a hot cup of coffee. MMMmmm I still haven't played a single round yet this year despite great weather of late ( & ) But my wife still says I am obsessed with golf. LOL! Maybe having a 9-iron next to the desk, regularly swinging a club in the living room or in the backyard, and constantly watching or talking about golf has something to do with it? @GolfSpy_APH Great testing opp indeed! I am not a club builder myself, but kudos to you and the team for bringing this unique experiences to the forum. @GolfSpy SAM Happy Birthday sir! I hope a new bag of Maltby irons are in your future! Have a great day ya'll

Congrats to the tester! These bags are just impressive looking. I will be curious to see how you test and rate these beauties. Ready to see some 4K HDR pics LOL

Great analysis here. My two cents, FWIW, is that Scotty is not going to be overtaken anytime soon. But like you mentioned, he will be the one who falls back if it were to happen. The thing I see as the most admirable about Scotty is that he is consistent, and his course management is top-notch. He doesn't have to be a great putter, he just has to be good enough.

Congrats to the testers! This is a hot item right now. Lots of noise around these like @Jim Shaw said. Is anyone going to go with the broom stick option?

TGIF MGS, Rain should be letting up later today and make way for a sunny and 70's weekend. My grass will be looking me in the eye by then Doing a LOT around the house tomorrow to get caught up and ready for the final round Sunday. I been watching in between work duties and man the course humbling a ton of quality players. I think the wind has really played a factor. Still no golf in my future, but I like i said before, I still practice and study like I am about to get a round in! Be well and have a great weekend spies.

Happy Thursday ya'll! And just like that is the start of the 88th Masters Tournament. I watched the honorary starters ceremony this morning, which was a real treat, to see my OG golfing idols and all the history they have. Reminds me of how fast time goes. Treasure each moment you have peeps. Anyways, back to work (light day) and catching the action. Oh and checking out the testing opps!

The crowds....for a practice round *from the Masters' website. Woods & Zalatoris on No. 18 4/8/24

Good day MGS! Well its not your typical start to the week as its the great eclipse today and in SW Ohio we will be in total darkness as it passes. I bought my son this $10 piece of cardboard with a smartphone camera thing and a safe spot for viewing with your eyes. AND more important than a celestial event.....its The Masters week baby! Sooo looking forward to taking that in. Just a magical week of golf. A friend of mine is going to all 4 rounds this year, but I will be looking for him in the crowd. Still taking practice swings here and there. Made it to the range on Saturday and worked on my tempo. No future rounds planned, but I am still thinking like I am about to play! Anyways, have a great day everyone!

MGS, you guys are just amazing people. Masters cut line will be -2 High Amateur will be Christo Lamprecht lets gooo!!

Happy Friday Spies! Been watching the Valero tournament all day while working. This course they are on seems pretty difficult as the winds of kicked up on these afternoon groups. Still taking practice swings here and there. No future rounds planned, but I am still thinking like I am about to play! Anyways, have a great weekend everyone! Hit em well

Happy Hump Day Spies! Weekend is almost here...and Round 1 of the Masters is only a week away.
