Last (Golf) Thing You Bought?

[billchao]

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!!

[billchao]

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.

I got 5 dozen Snell Prime 3.0 for the trip. Hope to not lose too many!

I definitely put a dent in my taylormade collection today.

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 😜

These arrived Monday.

I think they are my new favorites.

A few dozen Taylor made distance balls are in the bag. Soon to be belted into oblivion

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.

@retoid you’re gonna like the vice better. I use them both Bridgestone e12 and vice

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
