But you are talking to a guy who just moved into the 21st century automotive wise no joke. Last week I did buy a ( gasp) 2001 Mercedes Benz S-500. And yes in Stu tradition it does have some rust on it but everything works and it runs and drives good. Golf wise I do own 4 sets of irons made this century and around 30 sets made last century Stu, you’re becoming a high class redneck in that Benz! 23 hours ago, chisag said: ...

Bridgestone went into a little detail during their presentation on the balls Monday night about the original Tiger ball from 2000. There’s also an interesting article on line about it - I’ll see if I can find the link.

They were on the patents with Rock Ishii and the Nike crew. The balls are made in Feng Tay plant out of Taiwan. 4 Quote 2020 MGS Hard Rock Challenge SkyCaddie SX400 OGIO Silencer: Followed by Arccos G410+, Tensei Orange Vapor Fly 3, Diamana Blue, Covert 2.0 3H, Kuro Kage Black Wilson D7 Irons 4-GW, Dynamic Gold AMT Glide 52, 56 ES ER2 -ProV1x (left dash) Romans 10:9 Link to post Share on other sites
BIG STU 7,095 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 John LOL I guess it would be worth the price of green fees----- even at Pebble Beach. And also thanks for the info on the Manufacturers that is an education within itself. Yeah I have had some jokes about me in the Benz---- It ain't what most think after all it is a 01 and has rust. And I am not strangers to a Benz either this is my 3rd one. Yeah i get strange reactions in the opposite direction of with my old Pick Up. Had one guy at work jokingly remark he wanted to rent it for the weekend for a drive by shooting! Yeah it is the big long one Mafia style. 2 Quote Driver Homna G1- X Stock Homna Regular shaft 4 wood Adams Tight Lies 5 wood Adams Tight Lies 24* Hybrid Adams A 10-OS Pro Launch Red R Irons 5 thru PW 1980 Macgregor VIP Hogan Apex #2 shafts SW- Wilson Staff JP II 56* shaft unknown Putter 1997 Santa Fe rusty as heck Link to post Share on other sites

fozcycle 11,560 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 I really like the data arccos provided and it was pretty helpful, but some late season hiccups with it were too frustrating to deal with. So I'll probably start the year without it in my clubs. Same here, CG2, I talked with them several times about the game “locking up” on my iWatch and IPhone after using it for a year, but they did not get back with me on a fix, tried several more rounds with and without the iWatch but it continued. Been playing since September without it.Sent from my iPad using MyGolfSpyCobra F8(10.5*) w/Mitsubishi Tensei CK Blue Regular; 3-4W(14.5*) & 5-6W(17.0*)w/Mitsubishi Tensei CK Blue Regular; Tour Edge CBX119 22* Hybrid; Ben Hogan PTx 5-PW w/Recoil 460 graphite shafts; Ben Hogan TKt Gw(49*) SW(53*) LW(57*) all w/UST Mamiya Recoil 460 ES regular shafts.

McGolf 268 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 (edited) My favorite thing at the show was the scotch and beer glasses made by BenShot. They are a father and son team that works with Veteran in Wisconsin making well uh glasses with golf balls in the side. They work well. I tested one with some Glennfidtch 14 and the golf ball never got in the way. hmmm.

We got to see it but it is under embargo for pictures. I can say it’s maybe a wee smaller in size compared to an Apple Watch - and a bit lighter. Huge leap forward - and it will come in different colors. You can also buy different color straps if you want. They’re also introducing a GPS only watch. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy I just got an email from the guys at ShotScope announcing the V3. Anybody else jumping on the bandwagon?

I was in Florida for 2 weeks several years ago; cold, wet and windy. Several days it was warmer at home here in the PNW than Orlando. However, I got to play at the WGHoF and a round with @revkev and @fozcycle at Rev's club, but I still would like to see warmer weather next time I go. I'm sticking with AZ and Palm Springs... warmer, drier, and a shorter flight. That said, I would still like to go to DD once in my life. 1 Quote “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to post Share on other sites
