She had the baby over at my parents house this morning while I was out messing around. They got to talking about my 30th birthday in July and my parents asked what I wanted. She told them, "he has been talking about this putter, but he said he would never buy one for himself...its called a Scott or something, or maybe it is made by a guy named Scott". They got to googling and found the Scotty Cameron website. My dad was sold when he saw they could get my name or initials stamped on it too. They told her to figure out which one I wanted and let them know. Its gotta be the Newport 2 from what I have been ableto put my hands on.

I owe my wife! It should go real well with the new irons she wants to get me...I must be livin' right right now.

Still not convinced getting married is worth it. :P Congrats man, which irons you getting?

Im in love with the AP2's. I have hit them twice and they fit the eye good and I feel confident with them in my hand. They are played by a pro I know and another buddy who is a 2 handicap. Also I figure it is a pretty good endorsement when the pro I take lessons from, who is repped by Cobra, told me to look at them over any club she knew of right now.

Wow! The wife endorses new AP2's and a new Scotty. Hold on tight and keep this woman. The force is strong with her. An action this nice should be rewarded with something that involves diamonds.

Irons:AP2 (Project X 5.5) (3-W)

Considering her diamond earings she got in Novemeber(daughter born) cost more than my first car...wait...AND second car she should be happy. Not to mention I handed her $675 worth of Nordstroms gift cards on Friday...long story, but they didnt cost me a dime. I have managed to find my way into her good graces.

In all honesty I have no business with a $300 putter but my parents said they want to get me something that means something and that I will have forever...seems to fit the bill just fine.

Those AP2s do look very nice. I guess a pro repped by Cobra is just about the same as being repped by Titleist. Owned by the same parent organization anyway. Anyway, awesome gift and sweet irons. I just ordered some new Srixon irons for myself yesterday, waiting is tough. Should definitely hold on to that wife you have. All I got as a gift recently was three new Vokeys since I paid for the new irons.

Congrats again and enjoy the new putter when you get it!

My wife was the one who got me into golf.

She got me my first driver (Taylormade r7 425) as my birthday gift when we were dating.
After marriage she got me my current putter, irons and the new Ping G10 series... I just bought balls, golf bag and wedges for myself in my current set up... I think it's because she is a golfer as well...

But of course in return I got her a Taylormade fairwaywood, iron set and Odyssey putter... So I guess we are even... hehehe.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      I have trouble with vertigo on occasion, but have gotten nutritional and biofeedback tips to keep it at bay. Dehydration can help trigger v-like symptoms so one recommendation, along with maintaining overall hydration, is to start with 8 oz. of water early in the morning. A meta-analysis on Golf As Physical Activity indicated that golf is rated as a moderately intensive physical activity. This scientific literature review came from the University of Edinburgh. The physical activity level ties into hydration. A former university colleague was a marathon runner who had published a couple of articles on endurance training. He likewise said that golf was a moderate physical activity especially when the round stretched past  the two-hour mark. For hydration he recommended switching from water to electrolyte drink on the back nine (past two hour point of exercise) to prevent cramping. At the two-hour point of moderate activity, water starts flushing electrolytes out of the body, which can lead to fatigue and cramping. (I have had trouble with leg cramps in the past during exertion.) During a round, I start out with water on the front nine and switch to sports drink on the back nine. If the day is unusually hot, I may drink 8 oz. of Pedialite concentrate before going to the course. Maintaining overall hydration plus on-course boosters keeps me going.

      Puerto Vallarta Vacation / Vidanta

      By Mystique · Posted

      Personally I’d try booking direct first - either via the Vidanta golf reservations number/email or through the resort concierge - especially for Christmas/New Year. Vidanta’s main courses (Greg Norman and Nicklaus designs) are popular and can book out fast this time of year, so direct often gives you the best shot at your preferred tee times.
