Golf Thread 2.0 - Zach Johnson hates you and your family

The wife of a couple that are best friends with my wife and I has parents who are members there. Supposed to be getting a guys' trip to go back in the next couple of weeks. Having someone who plays the course regularly (and I play with regularly) should be a big help.

Haven't gotten to play the course yet. Took that pic when we went to dinner a couple weeks ago at the restaurant. Pumped to play it in a couple weeks.

 

Is that an old Eye 2 1-iron I see?

 

1. You look like you need some head covers for those irons.

2. That's a nice looking driving range.

 

gritzy would approve of the Ping drivers and such but he never posts in the golf thread anymore

 

lol, what?

 

Beat me

 

Shot 83 today. For not playing since the 2nd week of May, I was pretty pleased.

 

I have these red/gray wool head covers... took them off otherwise the bag pic would have been pointless. Not a big fan of the iron head covers.

 

Kinda want to go play a few rounds with my dads old set of eye 2's after seeing that 1-iron. \

On that note, my dad has saved my old set of kids (orange dot) eye 2's for his grandchildren. Received an unsolicitied offer to sell them right after I got a new set of clubs in like 6th grade and refuses to ever part with them. God I loved those clubs

 

I have the full set of black dot beryllium copper eye-2s. I could get 4-500 for the set but I will never sell them.

 

Exactly how my dad feels with both of the sets of eye 2s.

 

Those new clubs are begging for the sweet protection of some nice head covers.

You all have them, right?

 

Lol at iron head covers

Lmao at using them on cast irons

 

I've never been a fan of Ping but would love to be sitting on a set of the copper (or nickel) Eye 2's

 

am I blind because I only see 14

 

Count again

 

now i see it. good talk

 

club head covers on irons?

 

Threw the 1 iron in for fun. It swaps out with my hybrid.

 

Booked our tee time for my buddy's Bachelor Party/wedding in Vegas for Pauite-Wolf. I am excite

 

only problem there's 5 of us.

 

11/14 Im the single with a 10:58 tee time

 

Ping Eye2 1-iron is the GOAT club for tee shots when your driver is sucking dick by the ball washer. Used it in HS and College for any hole < ~380 because it hit a nice 230 yard draw down the middle every time. This page makes me want to go on ebay and see how much one would cost me

 

30

 

your friends are making you play alone?

 

no I'm playing alone because we're on a time crunch cause the wedding is at 6. so Im taking the earlier tee time which is also more expensive and Im the only one thatll pay the extra 30 bucks. also 2 of the guys only know the bachelor and the other guy is the bachelors brother

 

Spaulding on 1 at Tobacco Road this AM

More Cowbell as well

 

Got fitted for new irons yesterday and decided to go with the Taylormade RSi 1's with dynamic gold steel shafts. Also went ahead and ordered new blue/black golf pride grips for the irons and my remaining clubs. Should be ready in 2 weeks, I'm very excite.

 

2 weeks? Are they forging them brand new for you or something? That's ridiculous.

 

Golfsmith had to order them from Taylormade and said it normally takes around 2 weeks.

 

Solid 9 today. Could've easily broken 40 with slightly more accurate approach shots. Left it just off the edge of the green, pin high, multiple times. Chip in birdie on 7 felt real nice.

 

When do #6 and #9 play as par 5s?

 

Honestly not sure how that works. I've never seen the tees further out, so I don't know how that's determined.

 

I'd be finding out. I'd love to play a side with 5 par 5s. That would be awesome.

 

valyrian steel shafts

 

I don't see how #9 could ever be a 5. I hit 4 iron off the tee today and was sitting ~130 out

 

Oh, for anyone that's interested, these TM Speedblades are ridiculous. They've added 20 yards to all of my irons. I'm hitting PW 150 now. It may have more to do with how shitty my old Nikes were, but this game is so much more fun with these irons.

 

No clue. I've always wondered what the 4/5 meant, but never asked.

 

Pretty sure that's what it is.

 

Btw More Cowbell went for 73 Spaulding 84 & I went for 79

 

You shot your age! That's quite an accomplishment!
