i like walking its just so much more relaxing

you get to enjoy the beauty of the course, excercise, it just seems like the world slows down for 4 1/2 hours(unless the course is crowded-then its more like 5 1/2)

Driver: R7 Draw
3-Wood: Burner
3h,4h: Idea A2
Irons: 5-PW Idea A2Wedges: X-Tour 52, 56, 60Putter: White Hot XGBall: OPB (Other People's Balls)

I've started walking my home course. Its an executive course and i have a membership so it's free if you walk. However I'm extremely hairy and I get over heated in the summer so I prefer to ride in the summer for that one reason.

I play at Timbers of Troy and Bowie most of the time. Northwest Park is pretty close but I have not played their yet.

I played Patuxent Greens a few times but last week I went to walk and they informed me that "it was a privilege to walk and you have to be a member", I just told them they could have the swamp all to themselves ! ;) Needles to say I will never go back.

I have not tried to walk Timbers since it has more hills but today I played a Bowie. It is inexpensive $25 for 18 and is fairly quite during the week.

Timbers of Troy in Howard County? no you don't want to walk that course, beautiful but as you stated Hilly and a bit long in between holes...I've heard of Patuxent Greens but never played there....what about Enterprise down in Bowie? nice course that you can walk....

    • Day 22: mirror work for a while. Working on my elbow in the downswing - keeping it in a better position. 
    • Day 36 (16 Dec 25) - continued the exaggerated left foot weight shift trigger adding some easy low flighted pitches with the 5h and a few putting style bump and runs with the 5h as well.
    • Day 442 - 2025-12-16 Got some swings in at an indoor academy a little south of Erie.
    • Has anyone played the new Maxfli forged irons? For the first time in I don't know how many years, they have come out with new clubs. From what I read, Maxfli was bought by Taylor Made a long time ago which then took all of their ball making technology and patents in order to get into that market. The club business was left to whither and the reorganized company, now a part of Dicks / Golfworks / Maltby, is producing these new clubs. (Their Tour X balls which I play are really good.) Anyway, I tried them both out at Golf Galaxy. There's a player's distance iron (XC-3) and a blade (XC-2) and both feel really, really nice, almost "Mizuno-like" in their soft buttery feel and they're a bargain at $800 for a set. I'm planning to ditch my Titleist's and want to go back to a forged iron. I almost pulled the trigger on the Mizuno Pro-245's last summer, but a damaged tendon sheath in my finger combined with a back injury messed up my golf game so I held off. Now the Pro-245's are no longer available, soon to be replaced by the MX-15. (At twice the price of the Maxfli's...that's what got my attention in the first place.) If anyone has played with the new Maxfli's or just tried them out like I did, let me know what you think.
    • Day 126 12-16 Back swing and rotation work today. Didn't hit any balls. Focusing on rotating and getting to lead side.
