Okay, here is a place for the Golfers to talk about tournaments, clubs, swing help or thoughts.

Today is the Players Championship, which I think ought to be the 5th Major. Largest pot in the PGA. The daunting 17th, which seems to bring excitement every year. At least we will get to see Sergio blow up yet again.

I am ready to see some water balls!

May not be what you're looking for, but I picked up a GolfBuddy Voice and I love it.
All it has is distances to the green (center, front, and back) but I don't need a whole lot more. Just turn it on and go. I haven't had any issues with it and the battery life on it is good for at least two rounds a day (haven't tried more than that).
I picked mine up on E-bay new for right at $100

Gave myself an early Christmas present. My irons are old, really old. Been wanting to upgrade for a couple of years now. I was looking at the Taylormade Burner 2.0 for awhile and then around Black Friday, Dick's Sporting Goods had some Rocketballz irons on sale for $249. I went to check them out and hit a few balls with a demo 7I. I liked them but had to order them because they were out of stock.

The next day, I was looking at more info on them and discovered I had been hitting a Rocketbladez iron, not Rocketballz. The Bladez were $449. I started looking around and found them online for $299. I cancelled the order on the other ones and ordered the Bladez.

They showed up today. I can't wait to play them, but...Winter.

Nice, I need to update my irons

The only Taylor made club I hit was a driver 320i or something. I demo'd it at golf discount in Martin city and was killing it. A few hundred later it was mine. I got it out on the course and could not hit it for shit. I don't know if it was the compression on the range balls or what but I could not hit it for shit. Unloaded it for a big loss and went back to the big Bertha lol

I had a friend who owned an old burner with a bubble shaft and he could knock the **** out of it. The 320i I had would never get off the ground. One of the most frustrating things ever

So Bob Dole just inherited a giant inventory of new (a couple hundred) and used (thousands) golf balls. What is the best way to move these other than peddling them to all the local golfers I know. Bob Dole doesn't even have a clue how much to charge for the damned things.

Haven't even made a real dent in cataloging everything. All of these are in the box. Tips?

You probably should start by sending me 3 or 4 boxes for evaluation purposes.

Going through the used, it looks like there are going to be a lot of B grade with minor scuffs. Bob Dole could probably throw some of those your way.

So my wife bought me five 1/2 hour lessons for Christmas. I am self taught and have been playing for 20+ years without a single lesson. I generally shoot in the mid 90s to low 100s. Personal best is 86 on a par 70 course. My biggest weakness is my approach shots, especially higher lofted clubs.

My first lesson was tonight. It went very well. We worked on my grip, stance and wrist hinge at the top. I knew my grip was all wrong, but I've been doing the same thing for years. I got fairly comfortable with it by the end of the lesson. He changed my stance so that I wasn't so bent over. It allowed me to get a little closer to the ball. And I really started seeing immediate results by focusing on hinging my wrists at the top of my swing. I stopped pushing the ball to the right and immediately gained 15-20 yards on my shots. I only hit the 7 and then 5 irons but the difference was dramatic.

Overall he thought I had the foundation of a pretty good swing which made me feel good. Mostly minor tweaks today and they have me excited to get out and practice before my next lesson in a week. I'll probably wait until after my next lesson before I take it out on the course.

Sweet, awesome to hear.

Almost every time I would go with my swing coach growing up I'd be ass for a day or two.

Instant results are awesome though

That's cool, Dart...im about the same score after many years, but resist trying lessons, I figure after 30 years of playing it's not going to help...hopefully, you can drop into the low 80's with the assistance.

Good Luck!

Oh, an BTW golfers, it's Masters Week!

I have the Taylor Made 3 and 5 wood bubble Burner for the last 15 years at least and think they are great. I had the Bubble driver also but traded it in years ago as I ddin't like it as much. I bought the 3 club set used for real cheap, like $150 and they were in great shape

Driver is now a Cobra for last 5-6 years but think it's time for a change. It looks so small compared to the new Drivers
