    Thinking of removing my ol' 4W and adding a Vokey 52*. I hit the 4W on the range great but never use it on the course anymore since I added a 3H.

    Everything I hear about The Tourist sounds awesome.
    I'm wondering if Costner and Sheridan have already "ended" it! Just hope us fans get some resolution.
    My Wife will be both pleased that a date is set but also pissed that it is so long from now. She is a reader and viewer of the series. I've watched the whole series with her. It's mostly pretty decent. Some seasons better than others. But I do like historical fiction.

    The Tourist is fantastic. Watched it before it landed on netflix and it was fun.

    This is golf. Spending endless amounts of money on new shiny unnecessary equipment for no reason is the cornerstone of our game. I fail to see the problem.

    No shame on the double post game! (See Maltby thread)
    Just built these last night. Maltby adjustable 7 wood and Mallet putter.

    Probably won't buy this until my trip in July, but since my club in Scotland is about 22 miles from Loch Ness, this Nessie headcover with the club logo on his collar seems appropriate.

    Just picked up a Callaway Paradym X on sale! My old driver was officially about 11 years old(Taylormade SLDR) and I figured that the technology has changed just a little bit since then so I decided to pull the trigger. I looked at the driver test data for 2024 and tried to compare it acrossed to the 2023 data. Decided on the Paradym X based on the 2023 data and the fact that I have the Paradym irons as well.

    Hello All!
    1) How long have you been playing golf? What’s your handicap or normal score?
    Played some in HS and college but gave it up for almost 25 years. Started up again in Summer of '22.
    2) What do you love about golf?
    Always something to work on and get better at. Great way to spend outdoors. And I really love the fact that golf can be both a solo endeavor or a gregarious experience with friends and family.
    3) What brings you to MyGolfSpy? Do you already know any other Spies?
    I'd been reading their reviews for a while and thought this could be fun. I don't believe I know any others here previously.
    4) Where are you from? What is your home course?
    NE Kansas. I play several courses regularly but my "home" course is a little 9 hole that is part of a family fitness center.
    5) What are the best and worst things about golf in your region?
    Best: Lots of courses within a short/medium drive. Worst: Can't play weekly year round... although I do play quite a bit of "cold weather" golf.
    6) What do you do for a living?
    I'm a University administrator.
    7) How’d you pick your user name?
    Nickname, which was already in use here, so I had to add some numerals.

    Wanted to introduce myself, newly joined MyGolfSpy.  I've used Golf Fanatic as a handle for the past many years, as I think it is a great description of me for golf.
     I live in WI where we have lots of terrific golf courses to enjoy but due to climate, also deal with shortened seasons.  I've read MyGolfSpy reviews on products for many years now but by listing my profile, wanted to expand by learning from other golfers like myself, who just love golf.  I don't participate in Twitter or Instagram but am sort of old school using email and the web.  Here's a little about me:
    I am a golf fanatic!  I love the challenge of golf, love playing it, working to get better at it.  Golf stimulates me, offers me great commarderie socially, and healthy benefits of excercise & being outdoors.  I not only play golf, but I enjoy practicing, watching, studying, discussing the game with fellow golfers, and have volunteered at PGA/LPGA events.  While I live in an area where we can enjoy about 7 months of seasonal golf, which allows me to log over 100 rounds the last many years, I also use the indoor golf season to practice on a simulator, to improve and keep swinging.  In my basement, I practice putting on a BirdieBall matt.  I regularly participate in lessons throughout the year from local pros.  The majority of my golf rounds are walking rounds with a push cart, and on the balance of rounds I use a cart.
    I use many of the tools of the game, especially gps which allows me to track my stats for number of putts per round, and greens in regulation.  I measure metrics to understand how my game is improving or where it needs improvement.  Currently my handicap index is 18.1, but 14 for the yardage I typically play.  Last year my low handicap index was 15.3, down 3 from start of 18; so 12 for yardage I play.  I'm hopeful of lowering my index to under 15 again this year with lessons and work I've been putting into my game.  
    In my bag are the following clubs:  Ping G430 Max 10k driver, Ping G430 5W & 9W, Ping G430 6H & 7H, Ping G430 8, 9. W, PW, 50deg, irons, Vokey 56deg wedge, and Ping Craz-e Sigma mallet putter.  My bag is a Sun Mountain C130 but also use a Ping Traverse bag occasionally.  I use Sky Caddie gps and scope range finders.   I pride myself on keeping my equipment in clean condition, and serviceable for the game.
    Here's hoping I can learn from some of you and help others with what I've gained over the years.
