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 threw an Odyssey 2 ball putter up in the air and it got stuck about 30 feet up in a tree, no branches to climb to get it. Major storm came through the next day, must have knocked it loose, someone got themself a two timing betraying no good disappointment to her dad putter

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.

    • There are so many videos comparing and contrasting everything that I am both overwhelmed and more than a bit skeptical. Your comments above are much more valuable than hours of you-tube videos. Generally speaking, I’d much prefer to read something that someone took the time and trouble to write (such as your comments) than a bunch of videos, or worse, meaningless reviews that seem like they are all cut and paste selections of the same script. I’m more of a RTFM type than a watcher of “instructional” videos. By way of explanation, I don’t watch TV either.  So thanks - I’ll take that under advisement. I have an H3 that I bought for $10 that I’ve been carrying around but not sure why. Seems like a cool club, but I just don’t really know what to do with it. 
    • I was using the window as a mirror. Just trying to be a more aware of the feels for a better backswing. Trying to not be as closed from A1 to A2. Then not letting the club head flip inside. What I was feeling was a pressure my right wrist, and like the palm of my right hand was pushing upward against the grip of the club. My right hand was the underside of the swing path.  Going to play around with this a bit more. It looked pretty decent with mirror/window work. Just wanted to jot it down. 
    • Day 4: 3/26/25 Par4Success workout followed by putting through 50 mm gates.
    • Day 249: did a stack putting session and then worked on 5 foot putts for a bit. 
    • Day 17 (26 Mar 25) -  Big day working on a project at church - therefore it was grab some time with the 9i in the backyard working on pitch and runs later in the day.  Focused on keeping the ball flighted to get some good rollout.  Hit about 20 shots doing that and then moved to the 54 to keep working on getting good torso rotation and not flipping through it.  Was not perfect as there were some bloopers and fliers but overall a good session on distance control.
