What Is Your Next Planned Golf Equipment Purchase?
ckeller52 replied to GolfSpy_APH's topic in General Equipment Talk
I'm looking to go for a driver fitting. I'd like to see if the Paradym Ai Smoke MAX D Driver is all they say it is. Or if something else out there might suit me better. That's why I do the fitting, when you start doing the head and shaft dance you end up with something you never thought would work and yet it does. -

How long do you play a ball before retiring it?
ckeller52 replied to aguybadatgolf's topic in General Equipment Talk
Remember when you could "smile" a ball? I haven't been able to do that since I started playing again in 2015. Now they become a practice ball when they meet the cart path a rock or a hardwood tree, which happens about once a round. -
Hmmm.... interesting, owning one bag or the other. I choose both! And a smaller Sunday stand bag for the Executive course behind the house. They aren't that much and why limit yourself? They don't cost that much unless you go to something like Vessel. And if you're going Vessel then you aren't playing a muny like me.

Bought a L.A.B. Golf LINK.1 for $400 at PGA SS with coupons and that's about as much as I'd spend. Putters unlike most other golf clubs hold their resale well. Sometimes you can make money after a year or two. That's why I'm not afraid to spend, I know if I take care of it I can get most of that money back if a new love comes along.

Blue Blocker flip-ups on the course and for everything else Polarised Green flip-ups. -
What is the most under appreciated brand in golf?
ckeller52 replied to GolfSpy_APH's topic in General Equipment Talk
TeeTech golf tees. Always the right height and never break. Well, the really stubby one does break if you hit it with an iron just right. https://www.amazon.com/TeeTech-Excellent-Durability-Stability-Friction/dp/B0CXV7HBJJ/ref=sr_1_37?crid=319X2R5JL3MO2&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.Q087aNZPFd9qpzmo9bOs7LSykXNxkI3ZE4DtfWEjj4SCCOFxhfZWlrhegNbRHP2wfnvCO3WD-Y2d4Qb84YPPG4tIUywsUakZlmglzu9XKmznKZ1_W_ZKCTrlFlbUJZFTlkltbfF3jW3umj_u2UCExey0kfwp1eoXN3hRnzn3_MiC4wteJoMcITxqKCCSzJBJJ6etHrmz9R3zHYMJkrupjuE8hftvXqF-DWPHd7OomSxVCXQJWntTk-_m_u17l1PWevVtHJrUbLG8m6yx8jUyuZDHalrLXJTaDtJifFAnfrY.td60aSMoCcY7uPggL-r3YBZF6MVupGnXWaFUSznsfaM&dib_tag=se&keywords=teetech+golf&qid=1710940011&sprefix=TeeTech%2Caps%2C180&sr=8-37 -
What's your favorite golf YouTube channel?
ckeller52 replied to arobledo1293's topic in The 19th Hole
Tropicana Entertainment, or Jimmy Tropicana. Yes, Manolo's sidekick. He walks you through his thoughts on hitting the golfing ball and I find it quite refreshing. He is a proponent of doing everything simple and easy. As am I. -
I get a little sad at the turn because there are only 9 left to play. At 16 I'm thinking three left and how did it go by so quickly? On the last hole, I'm adding up skins and putts owed so I'm a little less sad then. Overall, I enjoy golf with all the slow play, ball marks, divots in the fairways, trash on the course, all of it. Even the guy trying to give me swing tips that I totally ignore.

What Golf Ball Are You Playing In 2024?
ckeller52 replied to GolfSpy_APH's topic in Golf Balls/Shafts/Grips
I discovered these late last year and will be playing them this year except I'm going with white and the 360* stripe. I really noticed a difference off the tee and around the greens. -
ASK ECHO 14 way and clubs do not move. I haven't tried this on a riding cart yet but I can't see a problem. My old Ping bag had 15 way and I do miss the slot for my alignment stiks but oh well.

what is the appropriate length of a putt to give?
ckeller52 replied to ryan.mzzz's topic in General Q&A
With friends it's always buck-a-hole, buck-a-putt, so every putt counts. If it's for s#!ts and giggles then whatever, but I putt out everything.
