That was very cool!!! What a fun coincidence to be in the same golf shop at the same course at the same time (so.. did @Jmikecpa buy any putters..? )

 

WELLLLL, he didn't have the LAB but did have a Frankenstein setup on a Toulon...

I did not. I was only in the shop to pick up my winnings from my last tournament at RNK.

Gents,

Some of you may have already seen the random thread that jmikecpa posted but for those that didn't, FUNNY thing happened last Thursday. Played a tournament out at Kiskiack Thur AM and then decided to check out another Mike Strantz course (Royal New Kent), since I loved the punishment (I mean the fun) at Tobacco Road. I walk in to pay and who do I find but another Spy (Jmikecpa), who was at our outing last year at Queenstown Harbor. He was gracious enough to stay and play (show me the way around the course). Gotta say, I liked the course a lot. So cool to run into someone who would go out of their way to spend a couple of hours with you and ensure a good time was had. I know that you all know the value of the MyGolfSpy forum but thought I would share a little bit kindness showed by another SpyGuy.... Can't wait to see some of you again and to meet you others... Play well and see you in a few weeks.... Thanks again Jmikecpa... 

Had a blast a sorry for the crap golf. If it helps I figured it out 8 holes into my Sunday round. Managed to get rid of the high right swipe miss that I dad going.

I have confidence the Edels will be great.  I was hitting them last night during most wanted and they are nice clubs….a few yards shorter than some of the others but definitely a solid club.

Not to hijack this thread, but did most wanted testing include moving the head weights around to find the optimal set up for each tester?

No.  I asked,  but they decided not to do most wanted.  They did do a lab the end of last year: https://mygolfspy.com/labs/edel-sms-irons-test/

Yeah, read that, I was just wondering about your own experience moving the weights around.  No worries.

I wa part of that LAB……I try to do all the tests .   The moving of the weights does work and will change the feel of the club.   I think toe worked best for me since it kept the face open a little longer and helped with my pull hook miss.

Timely reminder! Payment made! Now I need to get some rounds in to fully knock off the winter rust so I don't embarrass myself on the course. I prefer to keep my embarrassments to off the course.

[Golfspy_CG2]

Hey guys, sorry I have been MIA.  Got a lot going on right now.   

But yes, time is getting closer and the final payment deadline is looming later this week. 

Thanks to those who reposted the link for everyone's conveneince. 

Thanks to the 7 of you who are fully paid up!  The rest of you let me know if there is any issue, while we have a firm deadline with Talamore, if there are any issues the sooner I let them know perhaps they can work on something.

This is fricking awesome.  And what a small world indeed.   And I really liked Royal New Kent, played several rounds there with a group from another forum, that was a great time.    A lot of simalarites to Tobacco Road obviously.

Final payment complete. May 1st sure came around quickly. Now all we need is for June 9th to get here (As well as my Cobra clubs). 

[GolfSpy_KFT]

Really hoping I can do one of the outings in the future, it would be so much fun.

Definitely follow the live thread we'll have going to capture as much of the fun and action as possible. 

[Randall Robbins]

Oh wow didn't know anything about this since this was posted way before I joined!  You all will enjoy the courses listed, especially if you play Pine Needle and my favorite, Mid Pines which are both of course Donald Ross courses.  Would have definitely signed up for this, since I have played all but the private courses in the area.  My loss, your gain!  Have fun!

It's not too late. I'm sure they will take your money. There are still open spots as well. (Three I believe)

(It's working!) Yes if there is any way you can join in the fun @Randall Robbins you should definitely slip into the fold.  And yes I am speaking from experience

Thanks for the responses, but I can make it at this date, would have had to make preparations to go, etc.  But I'll be watching, and if anyone wants places to eat etc., let me know.

Thanks!   At last look that leaves 3 left.   I know of one that said he will pay today.  The other two  let me know if there is any problem.  

Need to get those in today.    Thanks

[Golfspy_CG2]

Availability Alert!

If there is anyone that still wants to attend this let me know.  I think we migh thave one spot open.   It is a stay and play spot, at this poin there are no golf only spots.  I can check on that later to see if any come available 

 

 

[JohnSmalls]

Payment in.  Now getting the golf game dialed in is a different story

Good to go coach, settled up and ready to play.  Now all I need is the luck (and cooperation) of the @Yellow Ball to avoid water etc. and catch him in the sweet spot with every swing.  And I mean that in the nicest way of course. 

32 days and counting!   hey we need one of those countdown thingamajigs
