hckymeyer got a reaction from Mosb6384 in What Have You Bought Lately? (CHA - Club Ho's Anonymous)
As a group we buy/sell/trade a lot of gear on a regular basis, time to show it off. So what have you bought lately?
I picked up a Carnahan St. John's putter in the bargain bin at 2ndSwing for $8. Took it home and reshafted/gripped it and put in some new paintfill.
Next up is the possible replacement for my SLDR. I really wanted it to be a G30 LS, but the numbers just weren't there. So hit this bad boy and spin dropped almost 900rpm and ball flight straightened out. I'll have to get it on the course for a side by side comparison before I determine if it makes a spot in the bag.

Great result Rev, happy you found something you like!
Have you tried the new Ping wedge selector online tool? Of course a real fitting would probably be best, but from what I've read from people who've tried it the results are pretty spot on for a lot of people.

hckymeyer got a reaction from TJ Hall in Where to buy drive/wood shafts
Very true, I was just trying to keep it simple. I got a brand new Ventus black TR 6x folds of honor edition with an adapter but uncut for $230 when I lucked in to the right guy who was a dealer through the Facebook golf club traders group.
There's definitely deals to be had but it's many times a matter of finding the right person and they don't advertise because of MSRP restrictions.

hckymeyer got a reaction from Josh Parker in Where to buy drive/wood shafts
If you are looking to buy new I'm not sure it really matters where you get it. Most retailers are stuck at MSRP and not allowed to discount so it's going to be the same price just about everywhere. The used market is a different story and where the deals can be found, but also where you need to be an informed buyer. I stay away from ebay, but will buy used from golf forum classifieds sections (here and golfwrx) and also a golf club traders group on Facebook.
Buying new at MSRP though can be done at any local fitter or a ton of different places online.
Also if you want used but reputable without the hassle of dealing with classifieds I'd recommend mikesgolfoutlet.com

hckymeyer got a reaction from DaveP043 in Match of Cards is not fair. What's your opinion?
I wouldn't call it silly, but I agree that a match should be decided by continuing play.
However tee times are limited, as is daylight. If all the sudden you have several match's going extra holes it gets harder to finish on time. I understand the need for scorecard playoffs. If everyone knew the rules going in, and technically it is based off play since you are starting with the hardest hole and comparing cards, then I don't see any issue with it.
It sucks to lose that way, but I'm willing to bet if you had won that way instead we wouldn't have seen this post 🙂

hckymeyer got a reaction from ParFore74x in Sun Day Red - who’s bought what?
Tiger was on the Today show this morning and had a great chat/interview with Carson Daly. They talked about growing up in SoCal and how Tiger never play country clubs except for some occasional tournaments. He grew up on public courses etc...
After that I was hopeful he would've chosen an affordable line of clothing, but nope. Chalk this one up next to everything with a Barstool logo as things I won't be spending money on.
Looks like I'll be sticking with Kirkland Signature and 32 Degrees from Costco

Unless you are playing in tournaments where technology is not allowed I don't see any need for a yardage book for amature golfers.
