SPY VIP GolfSpy Dave Posted March 26, 2010 Author SPY VIP Share Posted March 26, 2010 They're making a movie of Y? With Shia LaBeouf? First of all, there are 10 freaking books! You can't make that 1 movie. Second, Shia LaBeouf? Is that the best they could do? got info from wiki... said he has a relationship with the director or something it did say too that he was unwilling because it was too much like the transformers character, doesn't show his range Volvo Intorqueo All the cool kids follow me on twitter: @GolfspyDave If you are not a cool kid, following me on twitter will make you cool...

Addicted2Golf Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Ok, so my first round of the year was at Chambers Bay, and we only played the 6400 yd tees. I managed my normal 83, but had to finish birdie, birdie to do it. Shot 46-37. too many 3 putts. I NEED A PUTTER, or perhaps a designated putter. Is that legal?? I call in the DP. Back to back birdies? You're borderline buddy!!

Addicted2Golf Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 First time out with the new grip and setup (adjustments stemming from my first session at GolfTEC). Just played nine holes and shot a 46. Considering the major changes, I'm pretty pleased with the effort. I hit some pretty damn good iron shots, which has been my Achilles heel in the past. My short game was horrible. That was the toughest part of the swing changes. The new grip has impacted my touch with my wedges on chips and short pitches - at least until I get used to it. But, that will come around with time. Honestly, I expected to play horribly so the fact that I could go out and enjoy myself while still making changes for the better was really encouraging.

MmmmmmBuddy Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Back to back birdies? You're borderline buddy!! That was an anomoly. Hit it to 6 feet on a short par 3, and somehow managed to shake it in, then hit 2 really good shots on a mid length par 5, and didn't 3 whack it. Small victory for me.

Actually, they are a combination of green and yellow - not Canary (traditional) yellow. Hard to explain but different enough for them to get a pass.

We played Golf Club of Illinois. I started my work day early so I was able to get in a quick late afternoon round. Funny thing... some holes on the course border a residential street. This one car kept driving by with a bunch of guys Jamo's age and they kept yelling "Homo" and "Queer" out of the car in the middle of our back swings. They did it a couple of times on and off to the point that one of my playing partners who is a good friend of mine decided he had enough. He started walking towards the car. The kids held their ground yelling things back and forth and then decided the better of it and drove off. I thought for a minute there I would have to get in the middle.
