Have a Mazda MX-5. Reason: I need to grow up! Fun car though, reliable as anything and I can fit the bag in the boot (trunk to most of you!).

Same here.....I'm on my 3rd MX-5.....for the past 1 1/2 years I have been driving a red 2008 Mazda MX-5 Miata PRHT (that's Portable, Retractable Hardtop). it's a far cry from my 1993 RX-7, modified to 350 HP, but I needed decent gas mileage for my 50 mile roundtrip daily commute. And no, the clubs do not fit in the trunk. If I use the passenger seat, the bag gets a kink in it, so I use my 2002 Chevy Tracker LT or 2007 Dodge Nitro R/T.

I've also got several to choose from. I mostly drive a 2001 Dodge Caravan, which is good for transporting the family, and it's also nice to keep my clubs and my fishing gear inside. On days I don't play golf or fish I drive either a 2008 Kawasaki KLR650 or a 1995 Nissan Hardbody Pickup that is being slowly customized to satisfy my mid life crisis.

Should be pretty zippy though when you give it some wellington, though.

We have some pretty harsh winters in my part of the country and we need cars that will make the trip no matter what's on the ground. My wife drives a 2008 Jeep Liberty Limited; I have a 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo (just bought it last month). My summer vehicle is a Harley Fatboy but as yet I haven't figured out how to haul my clubs around with it.

But where do your golf clubs go????? All I see are seats...

I built a rack for the back of it. Here is a pic of the rack and then a pic of the rack holding the two bags. That back seat leaves a good place to hold the ice chest, wife's purse, caps, head covers, etc.

    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
