  • SPY VIP

If you were going to take on the "Hotlist" with your own list but you didn't want to give away golds and silvers...what would you name your award?

 

This is only for the elite of the elite.

An MGS award? I've got a few names...

 

Hmm.. Something cute and artsy-fartsy?

 

Spyggy award

 

No-nonsense and golf related?

 

Golden Bear Award

 

Tyre Medal (after Bobby Jones, since he retained his amateur status and this site is for the amateur golfer)

 

MGS related?

 

The Non-Propaganda Award

Have a ton of back-ups in all categories, but there are always 14 clubs in the bag that differ depending on the course and set-up. Bomb and gouge. Yes, I'm a club gigolo.

Agreed with Moe on the name of list. Otherwise I'd keep it in tradition of the Ultimate reviews and had out letter grades to keep things consistent in the MGS brand for ratings. It would let people have a direct correlation of where things fit in this article/award list and the ultimate or forum reviews when someone wants to do direct compairison between clubs.

I laught at your claims to fight a zombie apocalypse when most of you can't stand up to a Spider

Call it the MyGolfSpy Golf Club ScoreCard.

 

Average clubs are Par

 

Above average get Birdies.

 

Well, above average get Eagles.

 

and really superior, like this was 1984 and Ping Eye 2 would get a Hole-in-One. I can not think of a club since then. Maybe the first TaylorMade Metal Driver. OR the Callaway ERC II but this is an award that is not necessarily passed out every year.

 

I guess if there is a club that is below average than they get a bogey.

 

And even double bogey if something warrants it.

 

As long as there is no set number for each. I mean if all of the drivers are just about the same, than they all get pars maybe a birdie or two if the score well enough but No eagles.

I like it but Tiger is just Fairways. The "Bubba" goes to drivers.

 

The "Natalie" goes to the best shoes and gloves because she even has good looking feet and hands.:D

 

 

 

 

Up until the last few weeks the Tiger award could go to the best GPS because he needed it to get back to the green.

How about giving them and "MGS Seal of Approval" or calling them simply "MGS Certified" or "MGS Top Rated" or something?

Ping I20 8.5* - Aldila NV 65g S
Adams XTD Super Hybrid 15* - Stock Fubuki S
Adams DHY 21* - Stock Matrix Ozik White Tie S
Mizuno MP58 4-8 Irons - Fujikura MCI 100 S

If all else fails, how about this one's good. That one sucks.

 

 

 

Pretty catchy isn't it. We may need to spend some time on a legend to go and explain the rating system. :P

I like the idea of the 007 award, or make it the James Bond Award. The loser clubs could be the THP Awards....nah, better not, could use the Aldrich Ames Awards.

 

Alternative 1 - The Thermonuclear Awards - why bother with Hotlist when you can buy THERMONUCLEAR!!!!!

 

2) the Anti-Hotlist- clubs that perform even without paid advertising.

 

Ok, thats my creative quotient for the day.

I like your idea Tyk

 

MGS Certified, if a club as that I know I can trust it to perform as it claims too. Only idea i can thin of at the moment would be to base them on level of golfer ie,

 

Major Winner - put it in your bag

 

Multiple winner - try it now

 

solo win - have a look

 

seasoned pro - no frills does the job

 

journeyman pro - doesn't really cut the mustard

 

tour school - back to the drawing board with this club
