I've been on a shopping spree lately, it seems. Bought a new golf bag - Mizuno BR-D4 6-Way in nautical blue - and a new Weatherman umbrella. It's my first real golf umbrella. Could have used it this morning, too, but it arrived in the afternoon. It felt silly spending that much money on an umbrella but I'm hoping it's the last golf umbrella I ever buy.

I almost bought another pair of shoes.

Someone in town was selling a used whygolf pressure plate. I grabbed it. It’s good to remind me about getting the weight forward but I think the big value will be in practicing ball below the feet lies that I really struggle with lol

Oh man I had one today. Ball below and I still chilli dipped it!!

Both the bag and the umbrella came in with plenty of time to spare for my trip. I was worried I might not like the color choice but it’s absolutely stunning in person.

What brand is it? Are there actually items you can't buy online?

If you want the Chinese stuff. I'd look closer to home first, even if they are also made in China. Some of the Temu stuff is stupid cheap and I'm not buying it.

I think you are only playing 3 rounds….i hope this is significantly sufficient supply.

Bought 2 dozen balls.  Hoping that lasts the season….or at least this weekend 😜

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

I watched a review on these and the guy reviewing them said he basically couldn't tell the difference between the 2.0's. Did you ever play the 2.0's? Curious if you notice any differences.

I also picked up some balls, but being how much of a novice I am and how often I lose balls I didn't want to buy many and spend much. I've almost gone through my box of Kirkland balls so I picked up a box of Bridgstone e12's and a box of Vice Pro Plus'. Have yet to try them out yet. Probably going to start off with the e12's. I really like the feel and feedback of a harder ball but I think I want/need the aspects of a softer ball.

I'm curious why you say that? Because I like the harder ball for feel and feedback or because they just perform better overall or both?

I have not tried the 2.0. The 3.0 seemed to be more durable than the previous Prime Black. I like the 3.0 a lot.

Yesterday I went to Dicks Sporting Good Warehouse and picked up 4 loud golf shirts for a total of $65.
This was 2 Bad Bird shirts and 2 Walter Hagens.
 

Today i just bought a used Bagboy Nitron. Had a $25 amazon gift card and with the cart being used I I only paid $240, which is good considering it retails for $279-$299

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 ·

      Another  driving range session. Got to keep the iron swing shorter. Not as much wrist twist as I think I need. If I over swinging I get into bad patterns of shallow with the body. Swing life is still a major key cannot neglect. Driver is much better. The feel of staying in my tilt and swinging down and left extending the arms is producing slight pulls to pull cuts.

      Can Putting Distance Control Be More Systematic?

      By billchao ·

      I don’t usually make practice strokes but when I do it’s always a practice stroke for the distance that I want to hit, similar to how I do for practice swings for short game shots.

      How Would You Play This Hole? (Hole #10 at TPC Louisiana)

      By p1n9183 ·

      Missed this one..  The closer you are to the green is always better because of strokes gained unless the hole didn't let you hit Driver for obvious reasons.  With driver if you can carry the trees on the left and stay shot of the greenside bunker its the right call, but because of what you said this is not the right club.  With 3 wood you have plenty of room (60 yards playable with 50 yards of dispersion for the club).  You are only challenging a small bunker and you are leaving yourself 70 yards to the hole. Dropping back to 3 iron avoid the brown bunker but put another bunker in play so no gain there and all your shots are now 20 yards longer. Not a good trade. Last option, lay back to 4 iron were practically all your shots are going to be in play but you are going to play all of them from 120.  For me is a 3 wood all day long.

      Model Local Rule Rocks and Roots (Please Let Me Know Your Thoughts)

      By DaveP043 ·

      I suggest you read the Model Local Rule to understand better.  The MLR is in effect only if the Committee chooses so.  The rule should be worded to identify which specific areas are impacted.  It could be a simple description, it could identify specific painted areas, certain holes,  there are a number of ways the Committee can define where "root relief" is available.
