  1. Agree with @sirchunksalot, what a good looking putter & love the Meadowwood Club wood design at the bottom of the putter. The face of the putter is cool as well. I see why you like it Jamie! Great history article too!!
  2. Congrats on your 1,000 Post @TJ Hall!! Here's to another 1,000 - Cheers
  3. Have about 51 rounds in this year.
  4. I'm a cheeseburger lover with a fried egg on Hawaiin Burger Roll, with mayo! Ultimate Burger: 1/2 pound 100% ground beef patty, provolone cheese, Shaved prime rib, sauteed onions, roasted mushrooms, garlic crema on a toasted black & white Sesame Seed bun! Oh wait I just had that burger at Miller's Ale house in Orlando! OMG!!! It was fantastic!! I didn't get the fries with it, ordered broccoli. You can't over do it
  5. Good Monday Morning Spies! Hope everyone had a good weekend! A cool 59 degree & Sunny Central Florida morning. No golf today, on first cup of espresso! What a Masters yesterday, congratulations to Scottie Scheffler! Wow, worlds #1 proved it! He closed out the tourney on the back 9! Impressive! Have a Great Day Everyone and Hit’em Straight ️
  6. @BLD7 one of my golf buddies who walks has a 4 wheel Sun Mountain push cart & that cart is nice. We've had our carts about the same amount of time and he's not having any issues. I believe he purchased his at Play It Again Sports.
  7. I went through a Titleist Iron & Wedge Fitting and it was really good & thorough. I was fitted for the T350 - 5 iron with Nipon Modus3 stiff shaft, lie 2 degrees upright. T200 irons - 6i through PW - Nipon Modus3 Stiff shaft, lies bent up 2 degrees. 48 degree Vokey sm10 F Grind with Vokey Wedge Flex, bent 2 degrees upright, Loft 1 degree weak; 54 degree Vokey sm10S wedge flex & 58 degree Vokey sm10M wedge flex, both wedges 1 degree upright. haven't received irons yet, but very pleased with fitting. This should complete my golf bag!
  8. @BLD7 I went from a 3 wheel TourTrek to a 4 wheel BagBoy Quad XL and I like it. A little issue with the wheels sagging after 3 yrs. There is a velcro strap and so far it's in good shape. I really like how the cart folds up and is compact. My BagBoy cart is the one on the left. You can see how the wheels are bowing out. That didn't happen on the 3 wheel cart.
  9. Torn between #13 & #18. Going with #18 and the chute off the tee. Dead uphill tee shot, with a huge fairway bunker on left (hope I can't reach) to an uphill green with the Sunday pin placement!
  10. Since you got an "A", you're forgiven for missing Community Call!
  11. I just switched to hybrids after 20 yrs. I had carried a 3w, 5w & 4 rescue/hybrid. Just changed out the 19-degree 5w for a 19-degree 3 hybrid and like it. I'm getting used to the hybrid and finding it's easier to hit and longer off the tee. Also will start tinkering changing 3 hybrid loft to 18 degrees & changing the 4 hybrid from 22 degrees to 21 degrees. The 3 hybrid is a Titleist TS2 with Tensei 70 gram stiff shaft.
  12. Good Thursday Masters Morning Spies! cloudy & windy Central Florida morning. Tornado watches in North Central Florida. No golf today, car still in shop, ugh! Finishing 1st cup of espresso and going to get in yard work before the rain hits today. I’m sure we will all have The Masters streaming on a device or two. Have a Great Day Everyone! Enjoy The Masters! Hit’em straight!️ @berkeleybob hope you and your wife are feeling better!!
  13. A sign of a good club builder is the installation of ferrules!! Your installations are clean, on evenly on the club & the ferrules are not damaged in any way, installed on the club! Great job!!
  14. Great Job Josh! Looking forward to read how you like them!
  15. Walked 18 holes this morning, the 3rd morning in a row. Today, not happy about the round. Although I did try some different setups specifically for chipping & pitch shots. Mixed results. I've been playing just ok, lately. Putting is still mediocre at best, but yesterday I switched to left-hand low (which is the way I had putted for about 10 yrs) and it felt better and the results were better. The next step will be a grip change (The putter is new & getting accustomed to it). As a result, I eked out a 1 under round yesterday due to making putting. Today was a fiasco from the first hole. Arriving to course late. Feeling rushed & having a group playing behind us the entire round, but those are excuses. I had some good drives & poor drives. Hit a good tee shot, it hits a tree root and ricochets out of bounds. Odd stuff. Wedge play from the fairway was C-. Like @Jim Shaw stated there usually aren't full-scale changes needed. Going back to fundamentals and staying focused are keys. Last month I went through a Titleist Iron & Wedge fitting and learned a couple of things. Because the Lie is not correct (my fault, not fitter's fault) I've been trying to open the club face a bit more on my T200 irons, just not having any consistency with that setup. The Titleist fitting was excellent and I did order new Titleist irons: T200 6-GW & fitted for T350 5 iron. I tested 4 different iron shafts & the Nippon Modus3 Steel Shafts performed & felt the best. I'm a Nippon fan! The Nippon Modus3 numbers were better than the iron shafts in my current T200 irons - AMT S300 Black. All the new iron lies will be set at 2 degrees upright, which has been my standard fitting for 20 years and going back to my grip preference - Golf Pride 2G Tour Wrap - Midsized with 2 wraps. Looking forward to more positive results. Also purchased two new Vokey SM10 wedges. Let's see what happens!
  16. Congrats Testers! Looking forward to your reviews. Never heard of Terra Forza golf shaft! Have fun!
  17. Congratulations Testers! This will be an interesting test & some great areas where rain gear is needed. Afternoon summer rain showers out of nowhere in Florida & the rainy weather in the UK. @ChaosReigns, you can revise your handle when wearing the Galway rain gear to Chaos"Rains". LOL. Good Luck Gents!
  18. Actually, they are eclipse balls. You noticed the stages of the eclipse , Good one Javs!!
  19. Good Day Spies! I didn't make the early morning post this morning, got to the golf course late, but just in time for 7 am tee off. Didn't play all too well today, felt rushed the entire round. But it was good to walk 18 holes. The weather was nice, a bit overcast and 66 degrees at 7 am. Distracted from getting up late & having to take my truck to the dealership. Warning lights on the dashboard came on the other day indicating an ABS Brake issue. Then yesterday two more dashboard lights for Brake system came on. Thought it might be important ! Dropped off the truck after golf, priorities man! Good excuse to work from home! @MattWillGolf actually Tony Bennett is in the music shuffle, along with Louie Prima, Lou Monte, Ella Fitzgerald & Jerry Vale. I enjoy Pandora. I set up a Louie Prima station. Have a Great Day Everyone! Stay Warm & Hit'em Straight!
  20. Good Tuesday Morning Spies! Nice cool Central Florida morning, 61 degrees. Walking 18 this morning, 7am tee off. Some dragging after UConns back to back win last night! Have my thermos of espresso walking down 2nd fairway listening to Dean Martin & Sinatra! Have a Great Day Everyone! Stay warm and Hit’em straight! Ciao!
  21. @Rob Person I found a black Vice Golf Ball. It is pretty cool. Unlike the Volvik which is matted, the Vice is glossy, as is the gold ball. Not sure you can see it too well.
  22. As a Golf Course Ranger, I like & appreciate your thought process!
  23. @Rob Person I've found a couple of those Vice Drip golf balls and like them. Vice is not afraid to go outside the traditional color designs.
  24. Good Monday Eclipse Day Spies! Nice clear Central Florida morning, 65 degrees. We will have some eclipse impact the Orlando area, around 50% of the effect. No golf today. Long weekend of Ranger duties, taking a break today, working regular job. @johngschulz I hadn't seen the Total Golf from Golf Digest. It does look interesting. Have a Great Day everyone! Enjoy the Eclipse! Stay Safe and Hit'em straight!
