Spazzen in Saint Louis

[Spazzen]

Hi guys, I'm Steve, I've been playing for over 40 years. Much if it for fun and recreation, with scores consistently around 100.  Then got into some work related golf leagues and true work level golf entertainment events.  The kind you always let the customer win by a stroke or two, but you can't make it obvious.  Which wasn't much of act (for me) as I was less than average.  Around this time (25 years ago) I bought my first real set of clubs Tommy Armour 855s with stiff graphite shafts and a Tommy Armour club bag. A huge improvement from my second hand cobbled set of cheap clubs and sun valley stand bag.  Now I looked the part of average golfer dude and started to take the game a bit more seriously. Continued to use Tommy's until two years ago when I again upgraded to Callaway Edge 10 piece golf set (yes the Costco ones) and started to play golf regularly (outside of work). 74 rounds of golf since October-2022 with 40 of those rounds in 2024. I've been using the SwingU app to track my game and have a handicap of 13.8 currently. Now for all the changes to my bag;
