Srixon Z-Star Tour Yellow golf balls.  I have been playing the AD333 since last year and like them but I wanted to see if I can could hold more greens with these.  They work!  Now I like expensive golf balls, too.  And the yellow is easy to see.

Took a couple fairway clubs that I don't use to the new PGA Tour Superstore and traded them in on a pair of black Etonic shoes.  They had a special deal going for that day only; they would add an extra 30% to your trade in value if you made an in-store purchase that day.  So I was able to get a clip-on-the-hat-brim ball marker thingy with my Denver Broncos logo, and box of E6 balls.

Total for the day:  $4.04.

I too bought more than I should have.  Had my bachelor party this past weekend.  Played at Renditions Golf Club near D.C.  Went to Golfsmith to get a new glove and some balls before the weekend, walked out with a FJ weather sof glove, Srixon Z-Stars, Under Armour grey golf pant, Travis Mathew Basher white polo, Under Armour white golf belt, Snake Eyes wind beater umbrella (effing hurricane!).  Oops...

In my Grom XX:

Maintenance on irons.

MP11s got extended 1" each iron and they saved the grips

BH wedges - 1" and new grips

Still waiting to pick up my TA1s (3/4 "), TA7 2-iron (1") and Mizuno Pro wedges (1" each and some bending). I doubt they'll be able to save the TA1 grips. Going with Player's Softie if they can't.

Money well spent.

Mizuno MP600 driver, Cleveland '09 Launcher 3-wood, Callaway FTiz 18 degree hybrid, Cleveland TA1 3-9, Scratch SS8620 47, 53, 58, Cleveland Classic 2 mid-mallet, Bridgestone B330S, Sun Mountain four5.

Golftown?

Got my driver shortened 1.25 inches

New Nike Glove ( $10 bin )

Bag of tees

I have a $50 voucher for a little golf shop here in Calgary...probably pick up new cleats and take my driver in and talk to a guy about why the hell I am hitting them so low....look at some launch numbers etc

Last trip I picked up a dozen of the Srixon Q-Star balls to evaluate. Best purchase of the year has to be one of those $3 suction cups to put on the end of my putter. Anything to save my back a little bit.

I almost fell flat on my face a few times this weekend while tee'ing up for drives. Slick ground and trying to take some of the strain off the back by leaning a little on whichever club I am teeing off with. Irons are usually OK but the driver has a tendency to slip out under the pressure which must be quite comical to watch. Luckily I have caught myself before doing a faceplant every time so far.


Bought a Nike hat, some Nike 20XI-X golf balls to test out (love them), and some tees.

Best Regards,
Ryan

Last trip was for a new pair of shoes.  I used to go in to see what's new but now I go in with tunnel vision and look for what I'm there for because it's too easy to buy something that I don't need, and I don't need much right now.


Last trip, I picked up only a few items: a Titleist visor, a new towel and a used R7 425 Quad to complete another set to load to out of town friends.

    • Day 19: 2/26/25 Putting through 50 mm gates and some weight shift drills.
    • Lately, I feel that sometimes I stand over the ball a little too long and I twitch my shoulders like a spaz. I have been playing really well, but feel that I need to get set and go. There is always something to improve on. 
    • Things are moving quickly this season and I just knocked off the hardest hole on the back nine. I have the number 1 handicap hole still on the list and two others. Since early retirement, this playing 3 times a week is working out pretty well! 
    • Wordle 1,348 2/6 ⬜⬜🟩🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩   Lucky sometimes trumps skill.
    • Day 35 (26 Feb 25) - Day of easy work (hanging around the house as son had shoulder surgery and I needed to help keep an eye on him).  Worked on low spinner 50deg wedges - keeping the ball low flighted and checking quick.  Went with the 8i after to do low flighted runners.  Great visit on two ways to get the same/similar results.  May be able to get away tomorrow for a short 9hole round (as long as the son's recovery cooperates).....
