Where are you playing?!

Have a great round. I'm coming to Boston from NY next weekend so my dad and I can have our traditional start to the season - March golf at Presidents in Quincy CAN'T WAIT. Friends are hollering at me to stay and go barhopping but I'm just putting balls in my apartment LOL

We played Montaup in Rhode Island.

Front 9 was a disaster for sure. Took me a few holes to get used to the new driver. Did drive consistent over 300 yards total and drove one 350 with a tail wind on a 370 yard hole.

Shot a 50 on the front 9, and a 38 on the back 9. 1 bogey and 1 double bogey on the back nine. Im happy with the way the back ended my round for the first of the year.

Question for you. How many courses are open year-round where you live?

In New York, we have about eight courses. There are some compulsive golfers, like me, that play year round, as long as the temp is decent, say 30 degrees.

Glad to hear that you got your round in.

Nike SQ 4W Accra T70 M4 Shaft

This is the first place I heard of. Its right along the ocean so the ground tends not to freeze.

    • Best drive I've ever hit: I will not be answering any questions about the rest of the hole. Or the round, for that matter.
    • I tried hybrids way back when TaylorMade introduced the copper orange Firesole Rescue, the clubhead having been made of titanium which was still relatively new even in drivers back then. I couldn't hit it well at all, and while the success of hybrids suggests that the modern ones must be quite good,  I'm perfectly happy with the 5, 7, and 9-woods.  Early ones of mine were Top Flite Intimidator 400s made by Spalding... and also made of titanium, now that I think of it.  I still have them in my basement. I do bag a driving iron, but it's a one-trick-pony that never sees fairway use.    
    • The last time I played Maxfli balls, Dunlop was still making them. How long ago was that? Mostly, though, I used to play Top Flites (original 336 dimple model) when Spalding was still making them. Now I play the Pro V1x. Last time that I ordered some, Titleist was still making them. Let's see how long that lasts.
    • Once, on a course in Middleton, Massachusetts that I used to love but has since closed down,  I hit the wrong half of a huge, UK style double green.  Then I made the hundred foot putt.  Tough to  forget that one.
    • No. But if I can still play next year, I'll almost certainly be even worse. That's the reality of not being young.🙁
