Let's see, wife got me a new Ogio Edge stand bag and a gift certificate for a driver fitting/driver purchase at a local golf shop. Folks chipped in a Nikon 500G laser range finder, and my brother got me Hogan's Five Lessons, Penick's Little Red Book, and Nicklaus' Golf My Way.

All in all a nice haul, from a golf perspective.

For Christmas my loving wife put under the tree for me (2) Vokey Spin Millied Wedges and the Bushnell 1500 Rangefiner w/ slope. Of course I had these items circled in the Edwin Watts golf catalog. (s)
All it cost me was a ring of equal value that she picked out. I guess the new 3-wood and hybrid will have to wait til I recoup on the finances.

I have three wedges: 48°, 54°, and 58° so it gives me plenty of flexibility.

Now if only your wife could have increased HER flexibility, that would have been an even BETTER Christmas gift...

I got everything in my signature below as an early xmas present from the wife on Thanksgiving. She then got me a Titleist bag, couple dozen NXT Tour and ProV-1 balls, gloves and a Golfsmith Professional model Loft & Lie bending machine. Kids got me Rifle Project X shafts 2-pw and 2 additional wedge shafts with Tour velvet grips and golf shirt and hat for my next tournament. Father-in-law took me golfing for 3 days at xmas. Mother-in-law just gave me a headache as usual.

I like reading about everyone's cool golf stuff. I received exactly what I asked for: 2 dozen Pro V-1s, sky caddie, a couple of Ashworth pullovers, and a cert to play a round of golf. Now I just need some warm weather to use my new stuff. I always ask myself this time of year, why do I live where it's cold??

    • I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.    
    • No one in the world is as smart as Phil thinks he is.
    • Get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you don’t like practicing then give up now. You don’t have the passion to become a pro. Unless that mentality changes you won’t do well under stressful situations.    Call the PGA Tour and ask. They probably have resources available.

    • Thanks man, sometimes it’s hard to improve bc when I’m not feeling comfortable I don’t like practicing bc I get frustrated. Any advice?
