My barber is in the center of town and I have to drive past the golf course to get there. When I pulled into the golf course parking lot, I remembered I was going to get a haircut!! I decided since I am more than likely to fully retire I have went back to full Hippie Stu mode. John Smalls can testify to that. One of the nosy old farts at the club asked me yesterday if my barber was on strike? Naaw I told him he died of Covid. He looked shocked and several laughed because they knew it was me being me. He asked really? I told him naah I was growing it back out so nosy old farts like him could ask stupid questions. Never thought about it before but honestly I am relishing being old and retired and not giving two hoots.

dlow206 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 I always have the second tee time of the day on Sundays and i sign-up as a single. There are always the same couple of guys who sign up for the same tee time as me during the week (i am happy to play with others), but the day before they always cancel. Still have never met these guys, its inevitable that they cancel every week.

Looks like you’re healing up well and not too far away from getting back to normal. Hate we couldn’t get back up for another round before we left. Thanks for the recommendations though. Blackmoor is one of my favorites now!!! Hope the pup heals up soon Guys if you’re on the SC coast go see Stu! Or at least get course recommendations from him and then go see him. hey we had a blast didn't we? Played the shootout Saturday Had 25 teams. I played pretty decent after my partners got me from pushing the issue too much. Rusty putted pretty well ran in 4 birdies and hung one on the lip for Eagle on #5. I darn near had 2 hole outs with the 7 iron from 135. The management put us right behind the cheat bunch and we kept eyes on them and they knew. No -14 from them this week they shot -4. I think -10 won it and we were at 8 tied with 5 other teams for 3rd. Evaluating my own game I figured on my own ball if I did not give out I could shot maybe 80 or a little better. Was about as short with the driver as I was with you but never missed a fairway. Did get tired and tight the last 4 holes. But I am improving glad you somewhat talked me into dragging Rusty out of his time out period. tommc23, cnosil, MattF and 2 others 5 Quote Driver ---- Callaway Big Bertha Alpha Speeder 565 R flex- 5W TM V-Steel Fubuki 60r--- 7W TM V-Steel UST Pro Force Gold 65R----- 9 W TM V Steel TM MAS stiff---- Irons 2015 TM TP CB Steel Fiber 95 R--- GW Callaway Mack Daddy 2 52* shaft unknown junk pile refugee.

A little update on the usage of the Honma 4 wood. Bellow was my first shot with it Friday. Today's few shots, I felt that if I did my part and hit with solid contact, the club performed well. I'm impressed with how easy it was to swing the club, and the mostly straight shots. That first shot off the rough was absolutely dead on into the front part of the green. The club looks very nice at address, I do feel that the face looks a bit closed at address, but I cannot deny, I've been hitting it better than my previous 3 wood. Another big shot from the fairway. Not bad from the deep rough. Another very clean contact shot. Overall it was a great day.

I had taken them out of my clubs when I had them regripped and had placed them on my entertainment center so I could keep them organized. Well...I guess one of them somehow ended up in the laundry and got washed. Dead. I went to order another one and saw Arccos has a discount for existing members and tried entering the code and got an error message. I went back over the code again, didn't work. Tried clearing it out and must have accidentally hit the place order button for full price. Now I have an email in with the starter@Arccos to see if they'll either be able to give me the discount or cancel the order. I don't mind paying full price, but I ordered 3 and at $7 savings each I kinda want to save that money. Their customer service is top notch and I have no doubts they'll come through for me. I've got to give a shout out to Arccos customer service, they are awesome! They got back to me today and were willing to give me the discount and refunded the difference, plus the sensors shipped out today. russtopherb, THEZIPR23, xOldBenKenobiX and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
