  1. Good morning spies! Couple of great groups for testing announced today, that was a cool start for the day. Both tests should be fun to follow. My Stars were unable to get the W against the Golden Knights in game 1 last night. Not how I was envisioning this series starting out but they should be able to bounce back. Temps will be in the 60s today which will be perfect because I really need to mow the yard this afternoon. Grass is getting to be a bit on the long side. Have a great day everyone!
  2. Great group of testers! Congratulations to everyone, looking forward to your thoughts!
  3. That’s a rough afternoon. Hopefully you are able to get your car repaired quickly.
  4. Good Monday morning everyone. This week is yet another 3 game week for my daughter’s high school team. I think that it’s wearing me out more than her. Today is an early one too with kickoff at 4:15 and it’s on the road. Need to leave work a little early to make that happen for me. Took the wife and daughter out for 9 holes yesterday and they both did ok. I saw them both making some gains and improving their ball striking. I actually heard my daughter admit that it was harder than it looks which made me laugh. Have a great day everyone.
  5. I did check the others and they were all tight. Cleaning them and adding new thread lock is on my list of possibilities. Right now I’m keeping an eye on them to see if they loosen up again and how long that takes to happen.
  6. That’s good. At least you’re not completely void of swinging clubs.
  7. I don't blame you for not wanting to play in the rain for your first round back. Hopefully you are able to get a round in soon.
  8. I watched Fallout this past week and thought that it was decent. It is entertaining and has some good storylines. You are also correct that it is not kid friendly. I've never played the game itself, not really sure why, but I'm enticed to go looking for it.
  9. Welcome to the MGS forums @Track 1!! That sounds like a great way to be introduced to the game as a kid, cool memories.
  10. A little bit of a longish term update with a development with my Evnroll EV5.3. While rolling some putts in the basement this past week I noticed that the putter felt a little off, like something was physically loose. Upon further inspection I found that the two screws holding the two pieces of the head together were indeed a touch loose which was allowing the back piece of the head to bounce when I moved it around. I removed the screws completely to check the threads and they looked fine. There looks to be a light coating of a threadlocker that appears to be white. It tightened right up and of course I will now be checking it regularly to see if and when it does it again. Still absolutely love how this putter feels and I definitely feel confident standing over putts with it. I usually play multiple rounds per week and roll putts at home daily with it. I’ve also updated my original review with this new information.
  11. Good morning spies! Frosty start to the day so no sunrise round this morning. That gives me time to watch the F1 Chinese Grand Prix so no real complaints here. I’ll try to get a round in later today. If not, I’ll watch the RBC and roll some putts. Have a great day spies!
  12. I probably have 12-15 or so good balls at any given time. I try to keep it light since I’m a walker.
  13. Got out for 9 today in some chilly and windy conditions. Temps were around 42° and the wind was 16-21 mph. Round wasn’t bad at all starting off with a tailwind assisted par on the downhill par 4 1st, always a great way to start a round. Struggled to hit greens on 2-5 which resulted in four straight bogeys but I was able to get the wind at my back again for the downhill par 4 6th which resulted in a bird. Finished it off by falling apart a bit with a double, par, double resulting in a 43 for the 9 holes. The wind was definitely a factor today but the mistakes were still mine. A couple of rushed shots and a couple of shots with poor club choice. Still had a fun round so life is good.
  14. My local golf retailer, Golf Headquarters, is having a tent sale this weekend where they pass out a packet of tickets with each purchase that are good for a free round of golf at a dozen different courses in the surrounding small towns with purchase of a cart the day of play. Gives me an excuse to stop in a buy something that I need anyways and maybe find a deal. Stopped in with my wife this morning in search of a 6 hybrid for her as well as shoes and possibly some Vice Pro balls for me. Wife found a sweet deal on a brand new Cobra RadSpeed 6 hybrid w/ Recoil ESX shaft for $100. I failed to find shoes and no deals were had on Vice balls however, they had two boxes of TP5 my symbols for $40 each which I decided would fit my needs just fine. Two deals, two ticket books, and now I have plenty of excuses to get her out on course to keep learning the game.
  15. Good afternoon spies!! I’m late to the MGS party today, been a busy one. Slept in a little bit to let the frost go away but when I woke up my wife wanted some breakfast. So we went out for breakfast and then ran some errands. I then made it out for 9 holes in chilly and windy conditions but it was still quite enjoyable. Enjoy the rest of the day spies!
  16. Norris will definitely be beating himself up over that one. Maybe he’ll get some vengeance during the race.
  17. The more fans and teams represented, the better!! The Caps have a long road ahead but nothing is impossible. The LA Kings won the Cup in 2012 from the 8th seed in the West and they beat some tough teams to accomplish that.
  18. Oh man, that was brutal. Playoff hockey is so awesome, completely different animal from the regular season. High hopes for my Stars this season but it definitely will not be easy.
  19. This is spot on with my thoughts. I’ll have to get a hold of my fitter and see about going through my current clubs to “check in” with my current swing.
  20. That’s a good read, nice write up. I’m already looking forward to your next demo day so I can get the next part of your story. I had a very similar experience during my iron fitting a couple of years ago where I ended up in my current 921HM setup. I’ve been pretty happy with it so far and have actually gotten curious as to if anything would change shaft wise with another fitting.
  21. Good morning spies and TGIF! Not much to report here, day of work followed by an away soccer match for my daughter. It will be a long day but totally worth it. My local golf retailer has their Spring Tent Sale this weekend so I’ll have to be sure to stop in and see if I NEED anything. I’d like to find a new pair of shoes and maybe some Vice Pro balls depending on what deals they have. Also need to look at hybrids for my wife. There, I have my shopping list ready Have a great day spies!
  22. Good Thursday morning spies. Walked out of work yesterday to the cool temps and high winds that had been present all day so I skipped the golf course. Stepped outside to grab the mail about 30 minutes after arriving at home and the sky was blue with a light breeze. Just a touch of that unpredictable Midwest weather. Temps are back into the 40s today with rain on and off all day. Soccer games tonight and tomorrow so maybe golf on Saturday when temps will still be in the 40s. Have a wonderful day spies!
  23. Who is #2? That’s a tough question. I know that Rory is listed as #2 and that there are a lot of great players towards the top of that list but, none of them are as consistent as Scottie. Looking at the OWGR list of names makes my head swirl just thinking about it. I don’t see Scottie being threatened at the top any time soon.
