CONTEST: 2021 MyGolfSpy March Mati Madness
GolfSpy BOS replied to GolfSpy Dave's topic in Deals & Contests
I'm think I'm actually quite fun to golf with... unless your name is @Lacassem so I get that you guys don't see the positive side of me often. Lucky for you, I typically rock my Cobra hat! My old sox hat is a fitted one and I don't really wear it anymore. I have to agree though, @xOldBenKenobiX and @sirchunksalot seem like some great guys to be paired up with. But if you need me to help level you out and play the role of Wicked Pissah Awsome Boston Golf Guy with a cousin's sistah's friend's brother's aunt who once babysat for Tom Brady's kids.... I'm your guy. -
Converting to a push cart
GolfSpy BOS replied to Highfade77's topic in Introduce Yourself/ WIYB (What's In Your Bag)
Like @Lacassem I got a push cart during COVID least year. I like to walk when allowed, even when it’s hilly. It’s just such a nice round when you can walk to your shot. we both have the CaddyTec CaddyLite Ez v8. Got them on Amazon. Worth every penny! I’m (only) 33 and use one. It’s perfectly acceptable. It’s not like you’re using iron covers after all. -
CONTEST: 2021 MyGolfSpy March Mati Madness
GolfSpy BOS replied to GolfSpy Dave's topic in Deals & Contests
She sure is pretty! hows it feel rolling putts? Think you’ll game it or is it a office putter? -
Woof then that's even worse. I'm about to ship out iron shafts I'll be double sure to get my receipt now.

Prices have gotten crazy. I sell a fair amount on eBay and have basically just started not using free shipping, which sucks because everyone likes to see that. Too much variability between locations and carriers. I make sure to have them scan it in at the store so I have proof of the weight in a receipt if needed.

well boys looks like you weren't the only one's thinking about the takeaway today:

Sounds like a club-ho anonymous post is coming soon. in all seriousness I love when I have that ball stroking day that feels effortless. Hopefully you figure out the magic sauce. If you do, please share the recipe! For my practice today I had an indoor planemate session between calls. On course Sunday my swing with long clubs was a mess and looking at some of the videos I was coming inside and not using my hips. I guess I was feeling stiff. I focused on the short pitch motions that use a lot of rotation.

Played an ok first round yesterday. I could not get off the tee for my life and was fortunate to only be +5 (41) through the first 9. My tee troubles caught up to me on the back 9 and I had 3 penalties for needed drops, and probably deserved a few more. I won't go blaming any equipment. My swing was off (felt tight) and I wasn't adjusting to what I was doing. I managed only 5 fairways and I remember two of those being lucky misses that found the fairway. But for as bad as I was off the tee I was putting very well. 8 one putts including makes of 16, 21, 24, and 26 feet. 8 two putts to go along with 2 three putts. One of the three putts was inexcusable even though it was very fast downhill bending first putt. It was only 6-8 feet to start and rolled that far past the cup. The second three putt was from a starting distance of 73' so while I would have liked to secure the two putt, I'm not that mad as the first putt was decent, just left me about an 8 footer that I couldn't knock in. Overall I finished up +14 (86). It's all good though... my drive on 18 was one that will keep me coming back for more. 278 yards and I missed the fairway by about a foot. It was easily the best feeling drive I hit all day. It felt great to get out there on a real course for the first time this spring. Already looking forward to round two!

What Have You Bought Lately? (CHA - Club Ho's Anonymous)
GolfSpy BOS replied to hckymeyer's topic in The Daily
Whoa! Those exotics putters look interesting. I’d give one a roll to see how they feel. But the ER2B isn’t going anywhere in my bag. I rolled In putts of 16, 21, 24, and 26 feet at blissful on Sunday. I just love this distance control I have with that one. I didnt hit the big tour fairway at my fitting. Are you thinking of having that replace your current fairway or more of a strategic tee club? -
Congrats ok 2k! I always enjoy reading your posts and particularly your build/swing threads. Thanks for being an awesome member for the community. Keep up the good work and calf-raises and you'll probably be starting a thread about becoming a scratch golfer soon!

Another mediocre showing for my team, although I’m thrilled to have gotten 3 wins with only one guy making the cut. Things get better this week with 6 guys already starting. I’ve got some decisions to make with Koepka and Westwood out. Somehow I’m still hanging on to a playoff spot, and I’m hoping Brooks gets healthy and Rickie starts to play well.

Introducing MGS X TheGrint Virtual Tour! - WINNERS ANNOUNCED!
GolfSpy BOS replied to Tarheelvolvo's topic in Deals & Contests
I’d be in the running! Hit the driver terrible today but 8 1-putts meant my score doesn’t look as bad. now I just need the invite to show up again so I can post it. Any word yet @GolfSpy_THV? -
It looks good because of the extra fertilizer... and by extra fertilizer I’m referring to our dogs! and it’s the low point of the yard with a relatively high water table, and plenty of afternoon shade.

@edingc @Lacassem @Chip Strokes and @ejgaudette I am not worthy. I’ll just see myself out. *B.Boston has left the conversation* -

he made a gif file of the pictures and it plays them like a slide show. A neat trick he showed us back in #CC4! -
Unofficial Review: Dumina AutoFlex SF505X Driver Shaft
GolfSpy BOS replied to edingc's topic in Member Reviews
I think we'll have to allow the unfortunate three putts as being caused from being amped up from those drives! We've all seen your putting getting better, add this to the mix and I think we're going to see some more PB's posted on the how'd you play thread. I tried @Lacassem's driver set to 8* of loft... I have NO idea how you guys get those things in the air. -
Wait so is that supposedly better than drinking out of the hose?? I drank a lot of water straight from the hose as a kid and turned out fine-ish.

GolfSpy BOS replied to mr.hicksta's topic in Training Aids, GPS Devices, Apps, Accessories & More!
no issues here. Still a new user as well, but not issues to report. -
Glad you're enjoying it! That thing just plain works. And it’s addicting.

Tour Striker Planemate
GolfSpy BOS replied to mr.hicksta's topic in Training Aids, GPS Devices, Apps, Accessories & More!
It is amazing that he can make it look so easy and still pumped them out there around 300 yards. It may look effortless, but there's still a lot of torque going on there! Also an update: I warm up with the planemate in the morning while my reports are running for the day, Just did a few free swings and I still feel like the planemate is pulling me into positions... so cool and strange at the same time. -
Eight years ago today my wife and I tied the knot! It was a beautiful late April day in MA. With clear skies and upper 60 temps. Fast forward a bit and we now have three spunky children, two lazy dogs, and plenty other things to be thankful and grateful for. If I could go back and do it again I wouldn't change a thing. Here's to eight more (years, NOT kids)!
