  1. I hit what was probably the best shot I have ever hit, yesterday. I had 215yds up hill, into a 20mph wind, and on a side hill lie with the ball above my feet. I was in the right rough and the green was completely blocked by a tree. I hit a punch, cut 3W that started about 15yds left of the green to a right pin placement. The ball didn't get more than 20' off the ground and it landed on the front edge of the green, almost hit the pin, and finished about 15' past. I two putted ...

      Nice, I love those shots that you remember forever!

       

  2. I know it's only 2 holes in, but Tiger looks to be on his game today.

    1. JBones

      And after I post this he misses the 4' birdie putt.

      haha and look at his OMG shot on 16th... good game Tiger!

  3. I know just yesterday I was sold on the RXS, but that was before I gamed a Callaway Hex Black. I'll put up a full review later today, but it is one of, if not the, best balls I have ever played.

  4. I live about 3 miles north of the Ohio, but on high enough ground that it didn't get to us. There are only a couple courses that are still under water. I'm planning on playing Sunday if the rain holds off.

  5. I looked at the Wyndham leaderboard and was pissed that Carl Petterson was leading, then I looked at my fantasy golf team and I started him; now I'm happy. LOL

      Dammit, I still have 150 points to catch up to you, stop starting the same players I do :)

  6. I may not have won the Tour Staff Contest, but I'm still out in front of Fantasy Golf.

  7. I need someone to make a putter that won't allow me to three putt everytime I drive a par four or hit a par 5 in 2. LOL.

      good luck let me know if u figure it out |-)

  8. I think it's safe to say that Phil has found his swing over the last couple days.

    1. daves81

      daves81

      i agree it sure is fun to watch

  9. I was just reading the 'Top Post of 2011' and that damn 'Reveal my Identity' post got me AGAIN. LOL

  10. I'm absolutely killing the ball on the range, can't wait to get out on the course.

    1. daves81

      It should be nice down there.We got out last weekend for the first time.Chance of snow this coming weekend up here.grrrr

      It's been beautiful, I just haven't had the time for anything other than the range.

       

  11. I'm glad I went and played today. I made a double eagle on a 480yd par 5, with a 8I from 160. It was my first ever and in the first round this year. Could be a sign of things to come.

    1. GolfSpy_X

      Hellova a first round JBones.

    2. apples

      apples

      congrats ! i got my first double eagle last summer..no feeling like it !

  12. I'm gonna pound the ball so hard this weekend, it won't be able to fly right for a week.

    1. hckymeyer

      hckymeyer

      Are you golfing too?

       

    2. JBones

      JBones

      Nah, just hitting balls.

      Gonna be a week before they don't plug on the course. This rain was nuts!!

  13. I'm hitting the ball straight and it's hurting my game. I know it sounds funny, but it's hard to adjust after playing a 15-20yd draw for the last 20 years.

    1. GolfSpy_X

      GolfSpy_X

      One of the guys I play with is just like that. If he isn't scrambling out of the woods he cant score.

    2. JBones

      I'm usually in the fairway, but it's because I aim 30-40yds right to allow for hook plus bounce/roll. Now I'm missing everything 20-30 yds right.

  14. I'm in the 1st league.

  15. I'm so awesome that sharks dedicate a week to me.

      If you punched me in the face, I would have to resist the urge to thank you.

      I love those commercials. Great marketing idea.

      My week will air soon, "Shank Week!"

       

      Way more scary to watch...

  16. I'm so sick of this damn rain; 14" in the last 10 days.

    1. hckymeyer

      hckymeyer

      I'd take that over the snow we are still getting in MN

      watching the rain come down again myself. Fortunately my home course is built entirely on sand so it shouldn't be a problem by the time I tee off tonight.

      tiger plays 18 hoes a day

      i feel ya jbones. i havent got to golf in 2 weeks because of this freakin rain. but its finnaly calming down

       

  17. I've been watching the Open for a few hours now and I've noticed the only American to get any cheers is Phil. If they don't pay Tom Watson the respect he deserves I'm flying over there and kicking some arse. Man, I'd love to see him make another run like he did in 2009.

  18. I've finally given up on trying to fix myself. I have a lesson at noon tomorrow. I figured I might as well do it now, while it's too wet to actually go play.

  19. Is it just TV or do the pros get to play on HUGE greens?

    1. Kanoito

      Kanoito

      give me those greens and I'll still miss them!

       

    2. JBones

      JBones

      I see guys have 80' putts all the time and I would have to putt from the fairway to have one that long.

    3. GolfSpy Dave

      GolfSpy Dave

      small greens at 15 stimp would be death. that course was a bloodbath as is today...

  20. Is there a big sporting event taking place this week?

    1. did you see that?

      did you see that?

      yes thee White Sox home opener and something else somewhere

  21. It's cold and snow is on the ground, but warm weather is coming, so I'm taking this opportunity to do some regripping and I'm also refinishing my Ghost Spider.

    1. hckymeyer

      hckymeyer

      What are you doing to the Spider? Start a thread with some pics!

  22. It's going to be sunny and in the low 40's today. I think I'll go play my first round of the year, I've got the itch.

  23. It's not supposed to be near as easy as what Rory is making it look.

    1. daves81

      daves81

      he will lose the lead i expect jmo like the masters

    2. daves81

      daves81

      well maybe not!

  24. It's supposed to be in the 50's for the next few days. Too bad we have 4" of snow on the ground right now.

    1. daves81

      daves81

  25. Just a preview to my upcoming Rocketbladez review............................WOW.
