MY family and I would move out to The California coast, either Monterey, or farther north, but on the coast. and we'd join a private club, that actually treats you like a member.

Oh, adn some new white FootJoy DryJoys.

You just won the lottery worth 20 million US dollars! what would you do?

Figure out a safe way to invest the money so we could live very comfortably off the earnings.

Take care of my extended family in ways that will be meaningful to them. Spend time with the family doing things that they will remember forever.

You just won the lottery worth 20 million US dollars! what would you do?

Take $4 million and buy a few nice homes, cars and misc toys. Take the rest, put it away and live off the interest while traveling around playing golf!

I would golf, and buy this town in the midwest that I read about on CNN, 853K and you get 43 Pecan trees with it, not a bad deal if you ask me.

I'd buy a nice house overlooking the Ocean, then after I was settled I would buy one of those Golf Digest peg boards of the "100 Greatest you can play"
and go to work


5 mil house in Northern Cali, 2 Mil house in Florida, 1 Mil house in Arizona = 8 mil.

1 Mil worth of golf memberships in the area's

2 Mil worth of cars - Ferrari California, Nissan GTR, Audi R8, Audi S5, BMW M3, Bently Arnage, Mercedes CLK 63 Black, Mercedes SL55 AMG etc

Buy a local muni, renovate it, make it world class and semi-private for 5 Mil.

16 Mil spent, save the other 4 for equipment, investments, and monthly dues

You better believe I would have about 15 scotty, bettinardi, and slighter limited edition putters. Not to mention new irons yearly and wedges monthly. Fresh Ball every hole. Range ball would be right out of the box.

I may buy out the golf channel and fire everyone.

1) Have a party (bring your own booze, LOL). Kidding!

2) Take care of family and certain friends as best I could.

$20 Million is not that much these days, but it still is a very nice chunk of change.

1) I would set up some kind of trust fund for my church and various organizations my Wife and I support.
2) Set up a trust fund for my son.
3) Buy an apartment in Downtown Vancouver, I already have one in mind, and renovate it
4) Buy a nearly new Infinity QX45 for me, and a Mercedes 4DR C-Class for my wife
5) Travel doing missions work, photography, and playing golf.

That was fun...

Cheers, Allan

Head to the UK and play golf everyday at some of the worlds greatest golf courses. After I'm tired of that, I'd head to Australia and New Zealand for some more golf. Then I suppose I head back to US and start my trip around the country playing every course I come to when I come to it.

I would move west,the trip to Japan this past July killed all world travel for me 14 hrs on a plane is enough to do that, And besides warm weather and being able to play golf almost all year round and spend time with the family is perfect for me.

This is great! I have the opportunity to let everyone know how generous I am without ever having to put my money where my mouth is!!!!
$5 million to my church
$5 million for a trust fund for local underprivileged children
$5 million trust to develop worthy young golfers
The rest for my old school
And spend the rest of my life doing missionary work!

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Pay off anything I owe. Then buy both my parents new cars, pay off their house. Then new car for me.

Then I wouldn't know what to do. I'm sure I'd buy some goodies, but I'd probably save a good chunk of it.

    • I speak for myself. If I inventory my swing thoughts, swing tempo, optimum muscle tension and rehearse a swing before I take my address, then I pull the trigger reasonably quickly with usually acceptable results. Like a proper program download before deploying it. If I don't bother to by forgetting or just not caring, I am inclined to look for my cues while hovering over the ball after taking the address, while tension builds up and then I fire with half ass program that is still buffering. I guess that's no better than rolling a dice. In other words, a good pre-shot routine does wonders. I am not advising folks to take 13 practice swings but one or two are reasonable. I am certain hitting half ass shitty shots and making double bogey takes longer than making a par.  My desire this year is to just that as I have not developed a habit taking a practice swings at all and have tendency to freeze over the ball after address. I think that is what @saevel25 is talking about in the OP.

    • I think there's a difference between taking time over the ball and taking time to play a shot, at least IMO. One thing I've noticed in a few guys I play with who take a long time over the ball to pull the trigger, is that their backswing is really fast and I think it makes it harder to have a smooth rhythmic down swing. It's almost like they take so long to swing that when they do they speed to catch up. Doesn't lead to good golf IMO.

    • As long as it's from a reputable seller it should be just fine. Just make sure the picture of the weight looks the right shaped weight for that specific driver head. You can even weigh it yourself when you get it if you want to be extra sure. Personally I don't consider $15 for something that can greatly change your impact and delivery characteristics to be "not cheap" but that's just my opinion. Especially since you know it's bringing it closer to what you were fit into and you're already saving a bunch of money by going the used/prior model year route too.
