    Where ever my GPS says I am
    I try, but I suck at it. Might try to go a few more times to the course a mile up the road. The one across the street is too advanced for me. Might have to hit the range across the street though. Meant to go to the range last year but never did make it. As for clubs, it is what my friend gave me to use years ago. He has never asked for them back yet. I had a hybrid club that I broke (I bought off him) and he was going to have fixed I haven't seen in a while.

    I had a set of clubs that was my Grandpa's, let a co worker use them. He got fired and i am sure they are gone.

    I've been playing for probably 30 yrs. Last year I played the most I've ever played.
    Took a couple of lessons last year, should of done that years ago. Got a bag full of
    Callaway X20's and bought a new driver last year, a Razr Fit. The adjustments actually helped with my slice too.
    I don't carry on the course. There might be a few less geese around the greens, if you know what I mean.

    Me and a buddies try to get out twice a week.

    Callaway Razr X- Driver
    Cleveland 3- Hybrid
    Nike Machspeed- Hybrid
    Taylormade Burner plus- irons
    Vokey SM4 52* and 56*- wedges
    Cleveland 60*- wedge
    Odyssey White Ice 2-ball- putter

    Usually hit a Mojo ball, but thinking about fully switching to a Pro V1 this season. They're pretty damn expensive though. But they do feel nice around the greens.

    I do carry on the course, usually I slide it into the cubby in the golf cart right in front of me with my keys and cell phone. I only golf with very close friends, and one of us is always in the cart so I am not worried about someone stealing it, and it doesn't slide around or anything. Slide it back on when going into the clubhouse or the snack bar.

    Lowest I shot last year was a 78 on a par 72, with my best friend one stroke behind me at a 79. It was windy, raining, but it was the best damn golf either of us has ever played. What clubs do you have?

    I was playing Titleist DCI 981, with a 907 D2 driver, powerbuilt 5 wood, and ping anser putter. I have finally talked the wife into letting me buy a brand new set of clubs, as I have always had used clubs. Was wondering if anyone here has ever played Cobra irons? Been looking at the S3 and the AMP irons, I am sticking with Titleist drivers.

    A game?

    Not for awhile now. Just remember that the people who gave us golf and called it a game are the same people that gave us bagpipes and called it music! :rolleyes: :D

    I wish it wasn't going to rain today and tomorrow, or I'd be out there. I may hit up the range anyway. I played quite a bit last year, since I was in a league. My goal for the last few years is to break 80. If I could get the driver and the putter to work on the same day, I should accomplish my goal, but that never happens. It got so bad last year, that I would just hit my 2 iron off the tee.

    Anyway, in the bag:

    Driver - R11
    Irons - Mizuno MP-32 (2-PW)
    Wedges - Cleveland CG12/14 (52, 56, 60)
    Putter - Odyssey 9
    Balls - Callaway Hex Black or Taylormade Penta TP5

    I actually just picked up a blended set of used Titleist CB/MB. I haven't hit them yet, but I've always wanted to try blades. It's going to be hard to put the Zunos away, since they are so sweet to hit, but we'll see.

    EDIT: No, I leave my pistol in my truck when I'm on the course.

    I'm just a hacker been playin couple times a month (summer) for 4 years still stuck around that 100 mark but I love it. I have 2008 big Bertha irons, I absolutely love them. Callaway hyper X driver 3&5 wood. I can't hit a 3 wood off the fairway to save my life. I swear by the mojo ball, inexpensive hits straighter and longer for me than any other ball I've tried.

    A geographical oddity
    Been playing for 22 years, last year was the first that I never got out, but money was tight so something had to go. Last time I played a lot was about 4 years ago, was playing 4 or 5 times a week and spent the second half of the season with a 2 handicap

    Taylor Made R7 Driver
    Taylor Made Burner 3 wood
    old Ping Zing 2 black dot irons, 4 through SW
    Titliest Vokey 52 degree
    old Wilson Gooseneck 56 degree SW
    Wilson 8815 putter
    usually use ProV1, but may have to try and find something cheaper when this box is gone

    My dad got me a nice set of Adam's Golf clubs last Christmas. I've been trying to play here and there, but not all that great.

    I do carry. Usually in the cart

    I tried golfing once. Damn near killed myself. It still hurts when the weather changes.

    It was nice of someone to leave a towel though. Prevents chaffing.

    I'm not sure my use of the implements of the sport actually qualifies as "golf."

    Back when I was a new LT, I played almost every weekend with a buddy.

    I've played once in the last 6 years, using clubs my bud and I whipped up with some Golfworks heads and shafts.


    I just realized that golf is a lot like shooting in that we spend a lot of time and a ton of money blaming gear for operator error.

    Or at least, we keep looking for the "next best thing" in hopes that we aren't the problem-- when we are.


    Or perhaps I'm the only one who's tools are more capable than I am?
