How Will the 1200 Bucks You're Going to Get Affect Your Golf Game?

[Double Mocha Man]

Between not playing golf or partaking of happy hour I have saved over $250 this past week.  Jeez, that's $1000 a month!  But who wants to stay a hermit in their house?  I'd prefer the expenditures...

I should have paid you to do my taxes. I hate doing that.

Unless you got a whole lot of craziness going on, I doubt we'd need the whole $1200.  Business activities with bad bookkeeping and all bets are off.

I'd went with $25K/$50K and made the stimulus $3600 in three $1200 monthly installments. $50K for couples would be the cut off, as there is still unemployment insurance, and social security available for some folks. 

The country is still in stay home mode for the next 30 days, or so. Getting some stimulus money when things start getting better would seem to help the economy in a more useful way..

Right now, I am staying home 20 or so hours aday, and I hav'nt spent more than $50 dollars in the past 10 days. I ptobably wont spend more than $200 in the next 30 days. Where would I go to spend more?.

There's alot of wasted monies in the this two trillion dollar stimulus plan. More of it should have been ear marked for American families, but as mentioned above, we don't want to get political on this forum. 

This x1000. Cheers!

I hope everyone who needs the money gets a check and ultimately the USA economy is put on the right track.  Spend it on golf clubs, rent or food.  But spend it!

I just came from the "Food Thread" so I'm thinking of spending it on pasta and pecorino.  And pinot grigio.

I was following you guys for a while on the food thread.   I must be sheltered.   You guys are naming food I've never heard!   My family is from SE Missouri and I grew up eating meat, potatoes, sweet tea and pie.   I need to get out more.

If you go there, you can enter your SSN and address and such and it should tell you if your $ has been deposited yet.

Mine was deposited yesterday.

Got new irons last year and the plan was to get a new driver and 3w this year as my current ones are both 10+ yrs old. Got a little extra with the stim money.

Titleist TS2 Driver, TS2 3W, SM7 52*, 620 MBs PW-8i. Who else blew their stim money on golf gear?

As for myself, I went on Callaway Pre-Owned and bought an Epic Flash Driver! Been desirous of a Callaway Driver for a while, so I thought I would stimulate the economy in this manner. Tried to run it through a 9 hole shake down cruise, but got chased off the course by rain after 7. Still, couldn't complaint about how the Driv er performed. Today was beautiful, and would have been a great day to take it to the range and really get it dialed in. But, unfortunately, yard work called! Doggone grass is growing like Topsy, and the yard was starting to look like a hayfield! So, that will have to wait.

My league starts this Friday, so I hope I can get some range time with this club before then!

Didn’t get any stimulus money but I still purchased a few things to help the economy.

Well, our league opening got moved back a week! We were supposed to get started this Friday, 5/8. This league has a 9AM shotgun start! Weird, but that's what my buddy told me! It's supposed to be in the mid 30's at that time on Friday! With sprinkles of rain or snow! Kind of glad they moved it back to the 15th. Hopefully, it will be warmer. 

Placed an online order at Dick's Sporting Goods yesterday, with front of store pick up. Got an e-mail almost immediately saying my order was ready for pick up. Went there today, called the number and told them I was out front, and a young lady came right out with my stuff. A new pair of Foot Joy golf shoes, and a 2 pack of new gloves. So, this is how I shall stimulate the economy. Though golf!
