Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Cool post. I'll watch the rest later.

Yea, I agree these are fun. Zeph did this once, posted somewhere in the private forums, and I found that to be quite entertaining. Sean Miller did a 4 hole blog too I believe.

It'd be fun if more members did this. I've thought about it, but whenever I get to the course, I always feel awkward about lugging my tripod around.

I said this before on one of the SoCal thread I think, but I think it'd be pretty awesome if those guys -- or really any TST related outing -- video blogged a few holes for us here.

At least give us the first tee jitters shots, guys! :-D

His buddy, Mark Crossfield, does the same too. They have a few course with both of them in it. The most recent one is at Desert Springs in Spain. I haven't seen the one they posted over the weekend of playing with a 14 handicap, but I'll watch it soon.

Best Regards,
Ryan

THE GORILLAAAAAAAA!

(Hear it in your mind with Mark Crossfield's accent)

I need to get around to watching "Gorilla James'" videos; been watching Crossfield for several months now. Mark takes it well when James outdrives him by 30-50 yards.

I really like Mark's on-course videos, because there's a lot of discussion about what clubs they're choosing and why, different approaches they could take, etc. And there's PLENTY of pretty funny ribbing going on.

The recent vids mentioned above with a 14 handicapper playing with them (Mim) were quite good as well. She's dealing with a fade/slice, so a lot of her shots were preceded by Mark and her discussing how best to play the shot so a big fade wouldn't hurt her too much. Very informative stuff.

Gorilla's channel didn't get that productive until recent when he started doing his own course tours. His previous videos just show him power hitting a few clubs and weightlifting, but that's about it.

    • On my car I got the extended power train warranty. I do read the fine print most of the time. Though at now 37, my eyes aren’t what they were 10 years ago.    The problem with most of these extended warranties on electronics and appliances is you don’t register the warranty with the place you buy the warranty from, which I’ve always found strange. Unless it’s GameStop then you know Alina drops her Switch in the next two years and the screen cracks they’ll replace it. No questions asked.    You buy a slow cooker at Walmart for $50 and the extended warranty is say $6, you have to go through a third party to register your product for the warranty, and it’s pretty damn annoying. Target is the same way. Anything you buy the extended protection on you have to go through a third party.    Why do retailers go through a “broker” for warranties? Because they don’t wanna deal with it? They make me talk to someone from another country, that I can barely understand, when I need my warranty fulfilled.   Sorry for the rant.
    • You may be able to find a regular flex Blueboard on the second hand market. I’m little more than half your age so I swing a shaft that launches pretty low so I don’t have a lot of experience with Regular flex (other than when I try to hit it I miss way to the left).    There are other shafts, such as the newer Ping Alta that I’ve heard good things about. And one that no one talks about. The Jupiter shaft. You can get this shaft for a $100 with a grip and your Ping adapter installed. I was talking to the golf manager at Dick’s Sporting Goods here and he has one in his driver and has nothing but good things to say about it. I thought about getting one for my Paradym Triple Diamond to play it a little shorter, but haven’t pulled the trigger yet.

    • Meanwhile, another old Tour Edge guy switches to Callaway for this season. I have a different problem, course dependent set-ups. What I’m wondering is if @dragonsmhas the 8 iron set 5-PW, AW, GW or just 5-PW, GW. Because the PW is 42°, AW 47°, and GW 52°. Because that could potentially be a gap there. The 5-iron to 6-iron length jump is 5/8” instead of 1/2” so you should be careful of that.    @WUTiger the problem most people have with 3-woods is they don’t play them far enough back into their stance. And they usually don’t have enough loft and the shaft is too long. So 3HL, 4 or 5-wood is probably better for most golfers. I do the “Frankenwood” approach. I have both the 3+ and 5 woods. I typically will either add two degrees to the 3+ on 6600 yards or longer courses, or take a degree off the 5-wood on shorter courses than 6300 or so, and use the 5-wood shaft for both. I don’t usually find a situation where I need both the 3 and 5 wood on a course. I don’t play from 7000 yards it’s no fun. Edit: I mostly agree with @WUTiger on the gapping, although a lot of the newer even fixed hosel fairway woods are made better than what we had when we were playing the old Exotics XRails.
