  1. A good or great course depends on the design, conditions of the course, clubhouse, practice areas, food, staff and cost.
  2. The first time I paid $100.00 to play golf was at Pebble Beach (many years ago). Ended playing by myself as the group I was paired with did not show. My wife had gone over to Carmel for few hours. She could have ridden in the cart with me. Still quite an experience even if she was not with me.
  3. Normally play twice a week on Tuesdays and Wednesdays with no set times. Play in a few scrambles and golf association events.
  4. Would like to participate. Had a great time last year.
  5. Thanks everyone for the Birthday wishes. Went out and played this morning and had a great time. For all those that are also have a Birthday wishing you a great day.
  6. Thanks everyone for the Birthday wishes. Went out and played this morning and had a great time.
  7. I do not change manufacturers very often. My equipment and accessories will pretty much stay the same: Driver=Callaway Woods/hybrids=Callaway Irons=Callaway Wedges=Callaway Putters=Odyssey Golf balls=Titlelist-Taylormade-Callaway Shoes=Footjoy Gags=Datrek Gloves=Footjoy GPS=Garmin Headcovers=Virginia Tech
  8. I have not hit a driving iron but based on my ability to hit a 3 or 4 iron I would rather hit a hybrid. My hybrid 3H is easier to hit straighter and higher.
  9. Would like to congratulate all the participants for playing this season. Daviddvm had a great win. I did far better than I thought I would do. I would like to thank you very much for organizing and conducting the competition and that you will do this next season.
  10. In no specific order: 1. Saint Andrews (Old) 2. Saint Andrews (New) 3. Saint Andrews (Castle) 4. Pebble Beach 5. Sommerset Hills 6. Baltusrol 7. Plainfield 8. TPC Sawgreas (Stadium) 9. Bide-A-Wee Golf Course 10. Sleepy Hole Golf Course
  11. If someone wants to listen to music while playing, they should be respectful/courteous of his fellow competitors, they could use buds or earphones or they could check to see if anyone objects and not play any music. If they are given permission to play music the volume should be kept low to not bother others on the course playing.
  12. Welcome. Hope you enjoy interacting with everyone on anything golf.
  13. Congratulations testers. Looking forward to seeing your reviews.
  14. Welcome. hope you find the site informative as well as interesting.
  15. UNBELIEVABLE!!! Jay Monahan should be ashamed of himself for being so underhanded that he could not even tell the current members of the PGA tour what he was doing. Golf will never be the same for all aspects of the game for many years. Can hardly wait to see the new leadership roles (Norman), who they will be and how much power they will have over the member players. Sure, there will be much discussion.
  16. When I go play a round of golf I do not go to the range. I practice putting and do a couple stretching exercises. I do not practice on the range. My practice is on the course.
  17. I am located in Smithfield Va. Just moved back to Va. from The Villages, Fl. Was there for eight years.
  18. I personally like spiked shoes even though I have a pair of spitless I feel more confident with spikes from a slipping standpoint. I have always gotten FootJoy shoes as I find them very comfortable, and I can put them on right out of the box.
  19. I am 75 years old and started playing when I was 7. I believe I have had eight sets of clubs over the years. The last three sets I have used have been Callaway.
  20. According to the USGA greens committee report of 2022 there are 2,300 golf courses in the U.S. that have 18 holes over 7,000 yards. Something needs to be done to change the mindset that courses need to longer. They are not finically sustainable unless they are only considering a more affluent golfer. I do not have that kind of budget. I belive that increasing the size of the ball will help. They can still modify dimple patterns to make them straighter. It has been done in the past. Thanks and have a very nice day.
