About 800 multi colored golf tees at a yard sale for $5. Guy had a bucket of tees with no price tag, he said make an offer, I shrugged my shoulders and said $5??. SOLD!

In the Bag:

 X Driver, 3w & 5w

 Ironwood 4 hybrids

Putter: BigT special


Today I got supplemental stuff:

4 gloves, bag o' tees, a couple of club brushes for my wife and kid so they stop asking for mine, head covers for my driver, 5 wood, 3 and 4 hybrid and putter (all mix and match clubs, only my irons match each other) to keep them from bangin' the crap out of each other when I carry.

I'm not going to treat myself to new clubs until I can consistently shoot low 90's or better. I broke 90 for the first time last week, but hopped back up to 96 and 98 the next 2 rounds.

Soon...


Went in with the intentions of buying Taylormode RBZ 19 deg hybrid but after trying a few other hybrids and I ended up buying the Adams Super Hybrid and so far I love it.

Ordered my new nike m9 bag today! Cant wait for it to get here in a week!!!

Bag:  M9 Cart Bag

Driver:  VR STR8-FIT 9.5

Wood:  SQ Sumo2 3-Wood

Irons:   Slingshot 4-PW

Wedge: 53 Degree

Putter:  TPA III


Yesterday, new shirt and shoes.

Today,  hit a few balls on the computer @ the store.  Swing speed was consistently in the 102-107mph range.  I walked out with a used TM Superfast 2.0 9.5degree.  Traded my superfast 10.5 which i haven't been able to hit since i bought it.

Taylormade superfast 3 wood

Taylormade RBZ driver 9.5 degree

I just picked up another wedge at the local PGA Superstore, a Vokey 58.08. (Old style grooves.) It was used, just $24, but with very minimal wear. I was surprised to see it going for so cheap. A new grip and I walked out of there with a new wedge to add to my set for a little under $30.

I picked up a new pair of Nike Lunar Control spikes (white/black/yellow). They are pretty sweet. Walked 18 today without an issue - which is saying a lot for a new shoe. http://reviews.nike.com/9191/418471/nike-lunar-control-mens-golf-shoe-reviews/reviews.htm Also picked up a couple pair of Footjoy Merino Tour socks: http://www.footjoy.com/catalog/productview.asp?c=343

Nice! I've got the Lunar Control and I love them. I got a bit of blistering during my first round with them, but since that they've been just perfect.

    • Day 314 - Putting some things together. Better grip/setup, fuller backswing, better finishing position. Filmed some swings, happy with the progress. 
    • Day 130: did a stack session. 
    • Day 206 (24 Nov 24)  - An easy session with the 54deg wedge and hard foam balls / one simple goal - distance control thru backswing length while not decelerating.  Had a playing partner comment they noticed me decelerating on a couple short wedge shots in last round.  Hit from distances from close to 40yds down to 20. 
    • Musgrove Mill hole #15 was converted to a par 3 after Hurricane Helene. Today, I had 145 from the tee which is a perfect 9-iron for me. I aimed just right of the hole and pulled it a few feet. Clanked off the stick down into the hole and ricocheted out of the hole 13’ away. Drained the putt for a birdie after repairing the hole which was damaged . Not sure if it would have counted as a HIO, but I was pretty excited!
    • Day 55 - 2024-11-24 Did five levels of Operation 36 on GSPro (different courses). 🙂 Was -4 from 200 yards (32) intentionally laying up on each hole (i.e. not hitting a 5I or something). Shot… 22, 24, 26 from 25, 50, and 100 yards. I forget my 150-yard score, but obviously it was < 36. Putting was odd… (and I did it with the wedge or a 7I or whatever was in my hand).
