You know what...this was the first time that I ever gave feedback prior to him. Whenever I’ve sold something I usually wait for the buyer to confirm satisfaction.

I should have known that this was too good to be true. A near perfect Spider for less than $200 and he’s still unhappy.

It’s nauseating...I told the guy that I’m not a golf shop, just an ordinary guy who tried a club and didn’t like it. He won’t relent and still wants me to take it back despite my policy, photos and eBay denying his return request.

I’ve sold close to 200 clubs and this is the first time I’ve ever had an issue. Like you say, one bad egg ruins it.

Yup, I grew up in CT in somewhat rural area. Volunteer Fire Dept were numerous. My hometown still has one VFD left. The guys/women who dedicated themselves to this way of life I can’t commend then enough, they are freakin awesome people.

It’s becoming more and more difficult to sustain itself. People being stretched thin with life and work obligations as well as the increased minimum training requirements for Vol FF’s. It’ll be very interesting to see how it looks in 10 years.

Yep I know--- Back in the day we did in house training and Now I think in SC it is a minimum of 100 hrs to get your firefighting interior structural certificate. I know down here in Horry County SC they are screaming for volunteers. They are going as far as advertising on the local news media and on billboards. I said it 25 years ago when SC built the new fire academy and started upping the requirements that the local citizen Volunteer FF would become extinct.

You’re in Horry County!? Good buddy of mine is a boss on the water rescue team. He loves working there and he’s said the most difficult task they face is losing guys to City of Myrtle Beach for better pay.


I agree with you that the writing is on the wall. The stronger tax bases will survive, I’m interested in how smaller towns and rural areas will get by with their fire protection.

I said this 25 years ago--- Folks in rural areas will survive. Smaller areas will defy OSHA laws and everything else and will stand strong-- Also rural folks are taxpayers and vote too and when their insurance rates go up because of a bad ISO rating then a howl will be heard. Yeah I can see it now a small rural area Farmer Jones house catches fire. The small not OSHA / NFPA certified fire department of residential volunteers puts out the fire with their antique not certified pumper and tanker--- What's OSHA gonna do? Try to arrest them? HA HA would love to see them try---- Now do not get me wrong I see the need for training but not to the extent they are doing it now days.

Yep Horry County has a problem with losing Firefighters and Police officers too to the city of MB for better pay. Also from what I see in the local media the county has some internal policy problems too in the ways they treat and handle their Firefighter and Police personnel. I know in the last 5 years or so the county has went through 3 Police Chiefs and the last one we had is involved up to her neck in lawsuits.  I do not personally know any county Firefighters anymore. The ones I knew have either retired or went to the city or to Georgetown county next door

My wife and I celebrated my daughters 2nd birthday today. I don’t feel comfortable posting photos of her on here but this one works for me. A tractor ride at the local farm market among other things. There is no greater gift than being a father to a daughter.

Great pic, Happy Birthday and I’m sure everyone understands.

You are probably a better coach than Harbaugh lol


I think he finally figured out what to do. Second half of the PSU game and last night was what we all know that team is capable of. Just a bummer that they are out of the BIG10 race. Year 5 was supposed to be “the year”.

Next year will be interesting... the QB is leaving and neither of the backups have much useful in game time.

Day 4 off no power. Finally got some WiFi at my mother-in-laws place. Could be Friday before we have power again. It might be time to have a classic club fire sale to fund a Tesla Powerwall.
