  1. Very underrated, under the radar kinda golf company .. yet with some excellent products!!
  2. Should I say Happy Birthday to @Preeway and @CFreddie .. or .. maybe Happy Excellent Swing Adventure Day!! @ZJeb67 love those puppers - we also had a Black Lab.. and the same sort of couch cover .. ours was also a very excellent couch potato .. often used the end armrest as a pillow! @tdc1 c'mon look at that beautiful face!! And you know it's *not* her fault, right? You're a bad human for tempting her to make bad choices @Dcfrench3 welcome! I'd also suggest to start from the forum home page and browse around through the different categories and topics - just fyi some of the ones I visit regularly include "Daily Threads", "Lessons, Drills and Mental Game", and of course"Pet Pictures" and whatever is new within this "19th Hole" category!!
  3. Unless... You set your stand bag on its side .. eg with the legs facing out to the side, not "down" .. then it sits there nicely! Sorry don't have a pic but I set mine on with the hip pad side down / large pockets side up (legs are on the left side when looking at it from behind).
  4. Good, but wet and dreary here, Morning all you crazy golfers!! Wife is headed out to get her "brows done" .. whatever that means? .. with a friend .. which of course to me a stupid guy is a strange concept... But hey whatever makes them happy! Nothing special for me during the day but things pick up later this afternoon .. the weekly CC, then head out for another indoor golf clinic in the series, then going out in town to see an old windsurf friend's band perform live (he's bass). .. so I guess tomorrow morning may be a sleep in late kinda morning Hope everyone has a good day!!
  5. Really enjoyed and got a lot out of his first book! I don't play competitively, but i'm sure I'll get value from his second book, too!!
  6. Great article! But.. there's one important medical angle that wasn't discussed...
  7. Check out the MGS .. main site .. testing - they've looked at those models, and others in that price range, and they offer a lot of evaluation and metrics to help you decide...
  8. Journaling something like this, along with your commitment and your great attitude?? You *ARE* gonna get there!! And I truly wish you the best - as I am on pretty much the same quest - ie anywhere in the 90s last year .. and looking to limit my mistakes and (expletive deleted)-ups and focus on a better, stronger mental and strategic game .. and hopefully start to play more often in the 80s... Let's Do This!!!
  9. YESSSS!!!! Tom for National Golf Czar / Supreme Director of All Domestic Golf Operations & Procedures
  10. Yes, but ... $131.45 for the starter set at the current exchange rate
  11. oh yeah... My town has two traffic circles that are directly north-south from each other along the same pretty busy road and only about 1/4 mile apart... The first one put in is actually a little smaller so occasionally someone will miss the radius either too tight or too wide. And yes - I see many "C" car drivers!!!
  12. No idea about those but sometimes the head weight between mens vs ladies club heads can differ... If you have a digital scale you may want to double check them when you get them?
  13. @MattWillGolf dunno but kinda looks like that cute furry snuggler has maybe kinda "adopted" you... Your wife and you are good people. (.. my wife and I would be the complete "fail" people as in wanting to keep any pup we had in our house .. and I mean like ALL the pups!...) @tdc1 great pic! So cute when big dogs get cozy with their toys! (..mine! ..mine mine mine...) @GolfSpy AFG good info and I can see the benefits .. buuut .. if I plunge into 40s degree water I'm wearing a 5mm wetsuit with a hood and probably a thermal layer underneath, 7mm booties with thermal socks and 5 or 7mm gloves or mitts!!!
  14. She is a friggin trooper!! It's all just prep for the Kingsmill trip where she's gonna shame at least half, I'm guessing, of us guys ... Wishing you both the best
  15. Good Morning!! .. on this end of the shortened work week for my teacher wife .. so tonight is gonna be date night .. get her extended weekend started right! Otherwise off to Chiro in a few; then some exercise and some indoor golf practice - rain moving in... Again... Had a little bit of a lightbulb moment regarding how the the wrists move through the swing (from Monte Scheinblum) so that's one of the things I wanna continue to build on. Ok hope you have a hassle-free and Wonderful Wednesday!!
  16. Several years ago was at a charity outing where at one hole was a WLD Champ (forget his name, sorry) who would hit any shot shape on demand .. and about 300 yds .. with a putter!!!
  17. Visualization. I know that may sound silly but did have a bit of a lightbulb moment concerning the movements of the wrists through the (full) swing... .. it was one thing that Monte Scheinblum had explained at the clinic I attended last June (!!) and was not really getting it .. until last night, sitting on the couch, it kinda popped into my mind and I tried moving my hands like he had demonstrated .. and, Ah HA!! Tested it out in the garage today and may possibly could maybe be wandering towards the right track But, as always.. Work In Progress!!
  18. Beautiful looking irons!! The Bettinardi father and son got Fred Couples to test them out... https://youtu.be/WB34g-MIYKQ?feature=shared
  19. Love it .. way gonna post I'd like a GPS enabled golf ball (but that doesn't make the ball too heavy) so I could head straight to it every time. 100%. All courses public and private should provide/rent push carts and/or electric push carts. And then there's the total pipe dreams - Call me crazy, it's ok, but I would like to see some sort of let's call it shot clock on every green. There's being intentional with your process, and then there's being just stoopit imho... Call me really crazy but I'd like to see *well behaved dogs* allowed out on the course .. provided they're properly handled and cleaned up after by *well behaved humans*.
  20. Congrats!! Curious, tho - you could golf there but you'd have to pay the greens fee .. is that how it works?
  21. @CSiders12, others if you haven't seen it .. for your morning golf porn fix - Fred Couples hitting those new Betty irons... https://youtu.be/WB34g-MIYKQ?feature=shared
  22. Good Morning good people!! Feeling my age this morning, as in plenty of sore muscles - friend calls yesterday, I'm 6 minutes from your house .. picks me up up and we go for an approx 8 mile hike in a big, really nice state park just a few miles away. Good steady workout pace the whole way .. in the cold and blowing wind .. lotta up and down and a big stretch was narrow single track trail thru the woods and along the bluffs by the water so some nice views. Nature highlight was running across not two that we spotted at first but THREE adult Bald Eagles that took off from trees right above us!! It was interesting to see three together .. and yes they are huge, and yes they are fantastic to see in flight! So no heavy lifting today .. acupuncture in a little while, then need to restock the beer fridge, and maybe some putting practice later. Who doesn't need more putting practice, amiright? Well also thinking positive thoughts for too many Spies and MyGolfSpouses with health issues ......... Hope everyone, despite The Big C and the little ticks and everything bad in-between, can manage to have a Terrific Tuesday!!!
  23. Someone mentioned earlier they hang theirs off the front of one of the carry straps .. I typically didn't use an LRF but that sounded like pretty smart idea!
  24. I also did a quick & dirty DIY a while back after a lesson where the instructor put me on the one he had ("Sheftec" I think?). Here's my compilation pulled from the scrap bin (square cross piece not round dowel)... .. and now I'm thinking maybe add a little piece of foam on one end to add some resistance. Thx MPR!!
  25. Thx for that. It does look like a large kick pad could fit thru that slot above the wheel .. nice!!
