Congrats, Jason.  I'm not nearly as tenured as you, but it has been a pleasure to interact with your content the past few years!

Here's to more rounds and great stuff on the forum

Good morning MGSpy Forum friends on a Monday in Rochester NY.  This was a photo one of the PGA HOPE Ambassadors sent to me he said was already posted on the PGA HOPE site while I was eating dinner. My son is my selected guest who is experiencing the Secretary's Cup adventure with me and his lower self is in the background behind me. 

The competitive 9 holes and other challenges happen today with closing ceremony this afternoon. Can't think of a better way to spend a Monday. Hope golf is a part of your day

What a week for WNY!  Oak Hill looks so pure at the moment from what I've been seeing and reading.  Excited to see Upstate get some of the golf recognition it deserves this weekend.

Good Morning Spies!  Sunny & 72 degrees in Central Florida this morning.  No golf today after a great weekend of golf - Saturday 32 hole & Sunday 18! 

Have a Great Day Spies! Hit'em straight!

Congratulations on the milestone! I think you'll reach 2k a lot faster once the Cobra Challenge really kicks in.

Good morning everyone. Had a great weekend with family in VT celebrating my brother-in-law graduating with his masters. Was a long weekend with all that but was nice to get home and settle back into things as the week starts. Hoping to get some golf in soon, though the yard is looking like it needs a mow today. I hope everyone has a wonderful Monday!

We still have 20 or so more testing opportunities left this season, but what do you want to see most?

Electric push carts or. Push carts/trolley, golf bags, score tracking apps, not sure really, shoes spineless.

For very selfish reasons of course, I’d like to see an opportunity to test wedges. I really like my Clevelands but I’d like to test Vokeys, or another big brand, against my 52, 54, & 60. 

I second this idea. I personally game the Mizuno T22s but would love to test some others alongside them. Also, call me crazy but I’ve heard good things about the PXG Gen 6 woods and wouldn’t mind getting some test feedback on their hybrid or fairway woods in Gen 6.

Buenas Noches! Only home for one day this week (headed to NYC tomorrow and return Friday). My club is closed on Mondays, so I'll try to hit the driveway range!

Same here: club closed on Monday usually means putting down the hallway and chipping off a mat in the yard haha!

What are your thoughts in the Mizuno wedges? Those are Alain on my list of viable options.

I love the T22s. I consider myself pretty picky with wedges and was previously playing the Taylormade Milled Grind 2 and never was a huge fan of the feel of those (performance was there though). I bought one Mizuno T22 52° on a whim one day because it was slightly on sale, was the blue finish, and my 52 gets a lot of wear. Immediately loved it. Feel is great, spin is great, and so far they’ve worn better than any iron wedge I’ve bought since the Cleveland CG15 lol. Highly recommend!

Good morning all!! Currently on the course. Let’s go

SOMETHING/ANYTHING that'll help me find greens and fairways MAYBE- a Driver like Al Czerviks putter

Happy Monday, MGS. I've gotta get kick started, noon tee time not my usual twilight. Playing Toms River muni course Bey Lea. It's usually in great shape but haven't been here since the offseason so we will see.

Club wise, I'd like to see some Srixon or Mizuno irons, really any players type irons. The BRNR mini driver would be a cool one to follow, not necessarily one I'd sign up for.

Other things would be the new Rapsodo, the new Cube rangefinder, Vessel (or similar quality and custom) bags.

I second the BRNR mini driver idea! I would love to see some real thoughts on the mini's utility and performance!

Ooh! I second the notion of the TM Burner Mini. Would love to test it head to head with my Burner I bought back in 1992.

Happy Monday and good morning spies,

Just returned from my morning walk with Riley. Now we are relaxing in the yard enjoying the sunshine. I got a couple of delivery updates on some recent purchases. My PXG 0341 XF 3 wood delivers tomorrow and my Edison 55-degree wedge delivers on Friday. 

Hope you all have a great day.

[StrokerAce]

starting the day with what I like to call "opportunities for improvement"....

truck catalytic converter/exhaust is busted and GHIN increased by a stroke but hey - those things are fixable!

[Merlin1313]

GM Y'all!!!!! Hope everyone is having a great Monday(all points considered). It was a busy weekend, including the most FRUSTRATING round that I can remember in a LONG LONG time(that's for a different thread). Couldn't find a fairway or green to save my butt. It's gonna be a good day with lots of things to get taken care of. For those out playin- hope you have absolutely NONE of the shots I had over the weekend  and nothin but F&Gs. Not sure how a "savage" is supposed to post(- but I hope this works). Hope y'all have an awesome day and like a general once told me, "Don't let the b@st@rds grind you down" We got this.................

Morning all, little cooler today compared to last week but the sun is out and feels wonderful! Pollen has ravaged the past few days being outside so much. Ready for the season to pass so I can get back to enjoying the outdoors!

Hopefully a smooth day at work for a Monday and off to the races for what looks like a busy work week. Hopefully able to get a round in!

[Rickp]

Going to swing over to “How did you play thread” to post this mornings 9 holer.  Was a very good morning.

I’d like to see something from personal launch monitors, Rapsodo MLM2Pro.

Wedges that are on the more forgiving side would be interesting was well. Edison Release 2, Mizuno S-23, or Ping Glide for example. 

Greens & Yardage books. Like Strackaline or GolfLogix.
