I have been playing golf for multiple decades. I am working on breaking 80. Shot 82 in first round of year a couple weeks ago so it will easily happen. I am all over golf: practice daily, lessons, watch, read, tweet, histogram, concepts for products etc. But my real job is IT industry analyst.

Currently play Mizuno irons, wedges are a mix but mainly Vokey, I have an Odessey and a Ping putter. Ping I have had since college it went away for a while but has come roaring back (19 putts in that last round). I have my eye on a new Ping.

Adams hybrids, switch from Nickent

Driver have a trusted Ping G5 and a Cleveland DST ...the get replace this year, need a new fitting session, also to be replaced will be 3w and either another hybrid or 5w. And will probably replace irons.

I am mainly a Srixon player, both Q and Z star depends on green conditions and amount of spin I want. Also like proV1x and Nike Platinum. Have ball tested for Titleist.

Play left handed. Volunteer for Boeing Classic and US Open, have also volunteered at US Sr.Open and LPGA event in Portland. Help with local HS teams on occasion.

Currently recovering from foot surgery, 6 weeks now weight bearing and I am also an avid fly Fisher.

If you are in area, I am near Golf Club at Redmond Ridge and love mid-week pm rounds.

I alternate between Pro Golf and Puetz for general stores.  In Bellevue they are a block away - I have that "challenge" of being left handed so it is always a hunt.  Especially with dollar advantage and hockey player advantage I may go to Vancouver for gear this year.

I have been into both stores while visiting. Nice shops with excellent reputations!  Sorry to hear that you are a lefty......  ;) ;) ;)

I usually play Esmerelda about once a year, nice but play can be slow. It's about a 2 hour drive from the TriCities. My wife grew up in Spokane so we go there quite a bit. They have very nice city and county courses at reasonable rates.

 

Played Mt. Si last year on the west side, but like Druids Glen and Gold Mountain better. Sorry about the lefty thing, but I have been told that lefties play on the right side of the ball! :)
