I watched you come in with your brand spankin new set of Taylormade irons, driver, FW, wedges, with a scotty cameron putter...in your brand spankin new giant Taylormade Staff Tour bag...brand new TM gloves on, brand new Adidas shoes on, and you were dressed head to toe in matching Adidas clothing. Oakley sunglasses. You even had a TM marker clipped on your hat.

Impressive.

It became evident after your first swing that you have never golfed in your life. I am not sure if you borrowed all your clubs from a friend but you seemingly have spent what I'm guessing would be over $2000 on golf gear.

After 20 balls or so, it also became evident that you may have completely underestimated the difficulty of golf. You were frustrated...VERY frustrated. You started slamming your golf club into the matt as you could not hit a single ball in the air.

You made a big scene at one point by slamming your driver into the wooden booth divider thing. Followed by slamming another club into your brand new bag and you went on to shove all your clubs in your bag, knock over your bucket of balls (which spilled everywhere and we had to pick up) while you stomped out of there like a petulant child.

Please sell your clubs and never golf ever again.

Sincerely, fellow golfer.

PS. you left your Oakleys on the wooden divider thing. You can find it at the pro-shop.

/end rant.

Why? Because someone posted that you'd stick out? Put those covers back on your sticks and take care of 'em if you like. You'll still be proud of your "like new looking" clubs while they are having

Too funny.

This leads me to a thought I have had for a while. I can take one look at a person's golf bag and tell whether they can play or not. I don't even have to see them swing.

And I am impressed you returned the Oakley's to the pro shop. Very stand up.

Too funny.

funny you should say that

I played this weekend w a couple + index's and another dude who was about a 8 or so when asked whay my index was, my asst pro said "about an 8 or 10" and i was on HIS team for our best score match play......hehhe! dude looked at my bag, saw my gear and said" no one w Titleist blades is an 8 or so......" (could only see my 8-Pw at the time) hahahaha!!!! thought is was funny.... but i get what ur saying about looking at someones bag and being able to tell if they can play or not...not ALWAYS the case, but most of the time u can tell my mixed up bag looks like i bought it all at a garage sale!! hahaha!

If your gear looks like a garage sale, mine looks like the dumpster behind Value Village.

I golfed with three hackers this weekend (four if you count me). Mrs. Random bag-o-junk outplayed Mr. bag-o-Taylormade and Mr. bag-o-Callaway. Mr. Taylormade had the TM logo on every single club (all 17) and article of clothing. I actually asked them if they were sponsored - jokingly - they thought I was serious and explained where they got everything. OMG - why'd I ask!?!?!

Reminds me of when I used to play racquetball and guys would walk in dressed in complete Ektelon, Spaulding or E-Force gear bagging a top of the line racquet but couldn't hit the front wall. I admit to being a gear geek but only after I've accomplised a level of proficiency in the sport and want to eliminate equipment from being any cause of the problem.

Gotta love the poser walter mitty. Why they spend 2 grand on clubs and not 2 grand on lessons is weird. They gotta go for the magic pill.

I like to guess the hacks and scratches based on clubs....it gets more difficult when you judge based on clothing/style. I played with a guy that was smoking a blunt on half the holes and he shot 1 over....crazy.

that's a great story... I'll send you the bill for snorting out Coke all over my keyboard

funny you should say that

so true... I can usually tell within a few strokes what your handicap is by looking in your bag... and I'll play anyone with iron covers for $$$
