@rkj427, any others interested in printed yardage books ... Here's a look at a Strackaline book (others include Golf Logix and Putt View) I recently picked up for the new club I joined...

^^ This is #1 and yeah it's a weird dogleg to start out on. One thing you do NOT see here is (a) just how tall the trees lining the inside of the fairway are, nor (b) just how far those big tall long branches overhang *into* the inside curve of the dogleg! 

Similar kinda thing on #9 (except dogleg left) so the overhead views + detail lets you "plan" (yeah I know the joke hahaha) your tee shot.

^^ Green view - USGA legal - shown three different ways. Same layout for every hole.

 

20241011_111238.jpg.7b85f25117994cef4013dd29c90b74b4.jpg

^^ A long, for me, Par 5 that is visually deceptive on the second shot - I tried cutting the corner 'cuz it looked like it'd still be a long approach - but now I see I have a much safer layup hitting anywhere left of that bunker.

These are nice and they actually have one for my small little track!

Used a Callaway gift card I got as a birthday gift to get a 54 degree Opus S grind.  Previously was switching between a CBX and RTX in that spot, but I wanted to try the Opus since my Callaway Jaws 58 is one of my favorite clubs in the bag.  I've only used it on 3/4 to full shots so far in only a couple rounds, but it feels great and stops on a dime.

Actually a harder lower spin ball for me in the winter so I get more rollout on FW and don't create so many craters on the green. Conditions are soft and wet. Granted winters out here are high 40s in the early AM and low mid 60s by afternoon. Wind also being an issue. 

that would definitely work for more roll out.  i guess im a delicate little flower and dont want to feel the shock of a hard ball in the winter.

Depends how cold your winters are. I know guys in Chicago that use then Titleist hand warmer pouch. They keep a sleeve of balls in there while they play with one of those instant heat hand warmers. Rotates balls every 2 to 3 holes. People always laugh when his ProV1s are steaming on the tee.

Recently, I bought a Swingcaddie SC200 plus.  Looking at the various reviews, weighting the costs, and what I hope to get out of it, this one appeared to meet my requirements.  Time will tell, I suppose.

That's always the hard thing about getting new clubs, knowing your going to get out and scuff them up. I love the stamping you decided to go with.

I think a lot of us have that same issue. Wife and I arrived home after dinner this evening and before getting out of the truck I opened the center console to grab my Airpods. She noticed that I still have a gift card for the local golf store in there and asked why I haven’t used it. Got me thinking, I don’t really NEED anything right now. I suppose that I should swing in there and see if there’s anything that jumps into my hands.

Just picked up a Datrek Verge bag from goodwill last week. Still had store tags on it. It's a 14 way top, has a top putter well and a front well too.  The jumbo grips fit nicely with no binding at all!  In fact,  I've fit 2 clubs in several slots to see if I would be able to use it still. It Works great!  The bag was dusty, and front magnet pouch slightly crushed.  (It has some type of rigid edges inside that was bent on one side.

Tons of pockets too. The front pouch has a dual pocket. Zipper upper with a quick access. Will get some pics later
