  7. How many putters should you bring with to a putter fitting?

    1. kygolfer1980

      kygolfer1980

      I would take a putter that is face balanced and one that is not so they can compare your stroke with both.

    2. Undershooter

      Undershooter

      all of them! Depending on how many you have of course. haha

      If you get that weather in Jan you will be out there in short sleeves. Me too. We aren't that cold in Detroit but is sure is wet. Just think if we could play year round, we'd be tours pros. Right?

  9. I think it may be time to update the WITB, lot's of changes in the past month.

  10. I think that's a new record, I made it 2 months without buying a club!! New Mack Daddy 2 wedge was purchased today though...

      It was until my wedges decided they needed a time out :)

      haha, at least you can console yourself with the knowledge that I was outside at work for almost 8 hours in the cold rain and wind and sleet.

      Went from a 56/60 setup to a 54/58 setup. I had a 53 (bent 52) that didn't see much use, so had it bent to 54 rather than buying a new one. So only needed to buy a 58

    3. MarcKilgore

      MarcKilgore

      Ah... I made the same change awhile back to tighten up wedge gaps (50/54/58)

      love that word Hckymeyer ... "needed" lol

  19. New 3w is built and ready to go, now if we can just melt this 5' of snow...

    1. JBones

      JBones

      Hit the 15* and it was only about 5yds longer than my 3i. Gonna try the 13* or may end up with a mini SLDR, as my FW.

  20. Really funny Winter, ha ha you got me. Jokes over now. Could we please have a 40° without it being preceeded or followed by 6-8" of snow???

    1. GolfSpy Barbajo

      GolfSpy Barbajo

      Apparently not….this stopped being funny about 3 weeks ago…

      I'm afraid that tuesday was spring and thursday was summer... They're gone now. Better hunker down for a fresh winter.

  21. I guess it helps to actually have epoxy when trying to build a 3w

      hckymeyer

      Ha ha, didn't get to the duct tape yet. I swore I had epoxy, but went to put the tip on my 3w shaft last night and couldn't find it anywhere. Wife was not amused when I somewhat acused/asked if she moved it :)

    3. GolfSpy Barbajo

      GolfSpy Barbajo

      That's always a bad move Brian --

    4. hckymeyer

      hckymeyer

      I was looking all over for the epoxy, couldn't find it so I figured I would at least get the shaft tipped and prepped. Then realized I couldn't find my Dremel either, Bro-in-law still has it :( Not a good night for club building around here

  22. T minus 2 to 4 months until golf season, it's past the half way point now!

      I've been there a few times before. It's kind of a nice place to stay in the swing of things.

      Haven't checked out MN Golf Academy yet, but I've been to the simulators at Bunker in Coon Rapids a few times last year and it was really nice. Plus they serve Surly in the bar :)
