      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 :)

      inside edge is like that too.

  2. It's been the off season for less than a week and I'm already bitten by the Ho bug. New putter project in the works with Spryevo and going to finish it up with a one-off Bestgrips gridiron

      Yup, I can already see the jokes coming, but it's going to be a blue Odyssey 2-ball with a short slant or plumbers neck, copper milled insert and aluminum ball inserts

      It's been a long, cold lonely winter…

       

  9. My new toy finally arrived yesterday. I'm doing a post on it, but here's a hint. It's black & copper and has a Gridiron Bestgrips grip on it :)

  10. 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.

  11. New SLDR is in the bag for today. Straight to the course from the store!!

      I've only hit the R1 once and the shaft probably wasn't right for me. But the SLDR felt much more stable with a better sound. It really feels like you can go after it and nothing bad will happen

      crazy ending!

  13. Off Season Day 5: Can't believe it's been 5 days since I swung a club. Starting to get the golf shakes...Only 4 more months to go

      brutal... time for a trip out to California for some perfect weather golf

    2. Paul S

      Definitely go visit 2nd Swing in Minnetonka... I went there for the first time this weekend and I felt like I walked into heaven. They have more clubs than you can shake a stick at. It'll cure even moderate to severe golf itch... Orrrrrr make it worse. There's only one way to find out.

    3. hckymeyer

      hckymeyer

      I've been to 2nd Swing many times, great place to hit stuff. I'm also going to try and hit up Bunker Hills in Coon Rapids. They have simulators for indoor golf.

  14. Played 18 today and it's 36° out. Didn't shoot very well but I'm not ready to give up on the golf season yet!!

    1. Mr_Theoo

      Mr_Theoo

      Hold on as tight as you can!

  15. Played 36 yesterday and supposed to be 70's and sunny all week. Golf season is hopefully here to stay (for at least a week)

      GolfSpy Barbajo

      Now that the weather's here, i have to travel. May play in Toronto Wednesday!

  16. Played yesterday and it was 76 degrees w/ 5mph winds, today playing in 50 degrees w/ 15-20mph winds. Sometimes I hate MN

      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?

  17. Productive day, reassembled my 7i and put a King LTD adapter on a new Oban Kiyoshi black. Only 4 months to go!

    1. GolfSpy Barbajo

      GolfSpy Barbajo

      Counting down the days, brother...

  18. 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.

  19. Shot my best round of the year yesterday. Finally getting the Adams CMB irons dialed in...just in time to switch to the Amp Cells :)

      Compared to the Scratch irons I played last year I'm already 1/2 to a full club longer than last year. This could be interesting

  23. Waiting for Christmas morning is a breeze compared to waiting for golf season with new clubs sitting next to you!!

      Storm petered out before it got here. We only got 7" or so. Unfortunately, the long term forecast doesn't even show the temperature reaching "average" in the next 2 weeks.

       

      Global warming my ass.

    4. Glenn B

      I feel Ya BK from the other side of Lake Mi. I am absolutely jonesing to get out and muck around when all this snow melts!

  24. Walking down Bourbon St with a visibly pregnant wife just feels weird

      Paul S

      As long as she's not wearing beads I wouldn't worry

  25. Winter store warning and predicting up to 6" of snow with rain/ice mixtures as well. I don't think my course is going to be opening on Friday

      I'd be inclined to put a hit out on Phil AND his whole family for this weather...
