WIYB from PING Apologist #9


Recommended Posts

PING haters beware and PING lovers rejoice! My set is complete.

 

Now let's take a tour...

 

FULL SET_A.jpg

 

Found the bag on clearance @golfdiscount.com. It is the PING DLX with the hard-to-find black, grey & blue that I think looks really sharp.

These shots would be a PING Marketing Rep's wet dream...

FT POUCH.jpg

Small front pouch. Must have missed getting a shot of the pouch above this that has the magnetic closure and has my rangefinder in it-very cool feature.

 

And now for THE MOST important pouch of all...

No apologies about this...I'm smitten!

Nice setup!

 

But I suggest you procure a proper flask for that Wild Turkey before you end up with a sticky bourbon pond at the bottom of the DLX.

Heh, I really know how to party...er, golf! "The first holes are sweet, then we downgrade after a few...Dunno why I suck!"

 

Not really. The cooler feature pic I shared was packed with what I had on hand. Turkey was a gift from one of our guests at the last Halloween party and so too were the Natty Ices...It was redneck themed after all...Good times.

 

Anyway, I'll usually pack 6 beers or so (Coors Original usually) and maybe bring along something special too, but WT (Kickin' Chicken)would be a little over the top. Specials include some decent and obscure Scotches, Bird Dog cinnamon or even Fireball. I maybe have 2-3 brews and a couple of shots during a full round and never really get twisted. My playing partners also usually bring along those little airline-sized jobs-the ones in the $1 bin at the liquor store.

 

BTW, the cooler pocket in this bag is insulated and has drain holes-Perfect!

Love it "Redneck Themed" goes to show rednecks are everywhere which I knew anyhow. As one of my redneck buddies from upstate NY said "Rednecks are not just confined to the South anymore" Back in my trucking days I went through and in Idaho quite a bit good people and nice country. One problem for me though too damn cold in the winter for my warm blooded self

So when I saw the username "Ping Apologist" start commenting on the forum, I bookmarked in my head that I've gotta see this guy's WIYB. You can't have a name like that without being top to bottom Ping. And by golly, you delivered.

 

Btw, you don't need to apologize for Ping. They make great stuff.

 

You've put together a really nice bag too. Great stuff!

Love it here and wild horses couldn't drag me away. Indeed, cold long winters, and very hot, desert-like summers. As much as its grown, it still feels like a small town where everyone is courteous and thoughtful. Can't say that about a whole lot of places unfortunately

I really got hooked on PING after learning about their roots with Karsten and how deep his philosophy of doing business still holds on today. I really like the engineered-driven thinking on design and how they protect the retailer by not offering direct sales of their clubs too. My first club was an old Anser 2i. Wish I hadn't sold it tho-damn!
