Saw this on the 9th tee at a local muni. It wasn’t worth rescuing. 😜 Not mine BTW.

I can’t disagree more. Bad putting days suck, but bad ballstriking days are so much worse.

I only ever broke one club and it wasn't intended or in anger.  I used to carry this seven iron I had found on a course around the farm with me and every now and again take practice swings to keep my game in shape.  Unfortunately I decided to use that as a pole to sit on and it worked for quite a while.  Unfortunately, one day, I put too much pressure on it and had it angled wrong.  The shaft snapped in the middle and if memory serves I fell backwards.  I keep that club as a paperweight, but more as a reminder not to do stupid things

I have picked up on a course the business end of an Odyssey putter and a Cleveland wedge in the past. Re-shafted both and gave them to the grandkids.

I always thought it might be fun to stick a very old club in the bag. Then, as a joke during a round, pull it out, have a tantrum, and break it against a tree or toss it into a pond. So far I have successfully resisted proceeding with this plan.

      A 5400 yd course is not that short for gents driving it 160 yards considering the approach shot lengths they are going to be faced with on Par 4s.  Also, for the course you are referring to I estimate the Par 4s have to average longer than 260 yds, because the Par 5s are 800 yds or so, and if there are four Par 3s averaging 130 the total is 1320 yds.  This leaves 4080 yds remaining for 12 Par 4s.  That is an average of 340 per hole. Anyway, if there are super seniors driving it only 160ish and breaking 80 consistently, they must be elite/exceptional in other aspects of their games.  I play a lot of golf with 65-75 yr old seniors on a 5400 yd course.  They all drive it 180-200 or so, but many are slicers and poor iron players.  None can break 80. I am 66 and drive it 200 yds.  My average score is 76.  On that course my average approach shot on Par 4s is 125 yds.  The ten Par 4s average 313 yds.  By that comparison the 160 yd driver of the ball would have 165 left when attempting GIR on those holes.

      Womens League .Golf Top Level Domain Name

      By iacas ·

      I don't think you can snag lpga.golf without the actual LPGA having a reasonable claim to it. You can find a ton of articles of things like this, but basically: 5 Domain Name Battles of the Early Web At the dawn of the world wide web, early adopters were scooping up domain names like crazy. Which led to quite a few battles over everything from MTV.com You could buy it, though, and hope the LPGA will give you a thousand bucks for it, or tickets to an event, or something like that. It'd certainly be cheaper than suing you to get it back, even though they'd likely win. As for whether women and golfers can learn that ".golf" is a valid domain, I think that's up to you knowing your audience. My daughter has natalie.golf and I have erik.golf.
