when i picked up the push cart a few weeks ago, i loved it because i really enjoyed walking my rounds. but i was a little underwhelmed by how it performed because my stand bag (super old Porsche bag that they threw in with the purchase when my pops bought his car) kind of sucked on it. 

once i strapped the ogio in to place it was like that scene in a movie where the heavens part and you hear the angels sing.

So I'm just getting caught up here...

I think the part where I left off was when I was talking about just completing my "second bag" for up on Long Island. That's when you said you were doing the same thing, but you were going to take it slow.

If I'm counting correctly, I see a certain someone has bought a cart bag, a driver, a 3 wood and some shafts in 3 days... thank goodness you weren't in a hurry to get this done, LOL.

What is it with all of us in this thread? We're obsessed.

hey! who asked you?!

cart bag is for up here, but you’re not totally wrong. 

my plan was to go slow and look for deals, but i really can’t ignore the deals i’m finding on the WRX classified forums.

i’ve got a driver and 3w so far and i’ve spent about $400. i’m on the hunt for a set of irons for around $300 now. 

the shafts are for tinkering this winter. whatever doesn’t work will go back out for sale. 

maybe you’re right - i think i’ve got a problem

Don't really need more golf balls at the moment, but needed to use up some Golf Galaxy coupons. Used three different coupons and got 3 dozen Top Flite Gamer balls for $22 shipped total including tax. Less than $8 a dozen.

 Don't worry, you're fine... this thread might seem like Bizzaro world to a lot of people, but to us, it's home. 

Hey, "we got a deal..."

Lol, anything under $50 shouldn't count toward my purchase quota

So... just finance every purchase from now on? Then nothing will count. it's genius honestly!

Usually wouldn't post about an ultra used club like this, but I think she's a goodie.

 

Picked up this Cleveland HB Soft 11 w/ slant neck for 20 bucks last week.  She may be old and a little beat up, but boy does this thing feel like butter.  Went out and shot 74 at my Pop's home club last week (Previous best was 77, also haven't played in over a month and a half).  She may have some dings and scratches, but I think that just adds character and honestly I don't see it leaving the bag soon.

Local club had a new one of these and I almost grabbed it. Liked the feel and thought a good price for a mallet experiment, but I skipped out. Then changed my mind and went back a couple weeks later and it was gone  Hope it keeps treating you well.

Nice, I almost went with this too but decided on a milled Odyssey Toulon due to name and the stroke lab shaft and a CPO sale.

Those Toulons are so nice, they just felt a little too firm for my liking.  These HB Softs on the other hand feel like a marshmallow off the face.  All preference, but those stroke lab shafts probably would have made it worth it.

Good purchase. Seems like Callaway Preowned sold a lot of inventory, not much left now.

Ya, my purchase was earlier this year around fathers day when they had a lot more stock

Ok... I finally did it.  Went with the chrome, likely add two raw wedges in the future in 52 and 57.  Just can’t do the black, and I’d assume the brushed steel wears weird too.

Nice buy.

Why averse to black though?  I'm strongly leaning towards black SM8's in my next wedge.  I have satin finish right now and at the right/wrong time of day I get a hellacious glare off the clubface when I lay it open...I'm thinking black would negate that.

Thanks.

Not sure.... I generally dislike chrome on everything... but I do like my clubs to last. Plus this being 95% of the time a full swing club I won’t be playing many open face shots with it, so it made sense to me to have it look like a continuation of the irons.  The 52 and 57 in raw should take care of the glare... that I also do not care for.

Went shopping w SWMBO and there was a sale Calloway golf shoes, they looked lonely so had to bring them home.
SWMBO has a new pair also, a new pair sneakers. Everything 50% off and a 10% Senior discount.
Is this a great country or what!
