1.

1. Depends about the lie of the shot on the rough. But 9/10 times, a 5 iron from the fairway

2. Depends on how often would you play. I'd say the top rated course if I could play every day of the week 3. hole out 4. 1st option 5. Any of those 6. Professional golf for a year or 2 7. in a foursome 8. walk 9. Neither. I'd rather play in the cold

2. 10 rounds at a muni.
3. 30 footer.
4. Firm putter, soft ball.
5. Not sure yet
6. Steady Salary
7. 4 hour round with others
8. Ride.
9. Heat.

[Rounders]

1. 9-iron
2. 10 rounds at a muni
3. or hole-out for par
4. Use a firm putter with a soft ball
5. wood off the deck (don't have a hybrid)
6. Play professional golf and struggle to make cuts (and money)
7. Play a 4 hour round with 3 other people?

[Fourputt]

1. Hit from the middle of the fairway with a 5-iron, or from the rough with a 9-iron?
Depends on the rough.

2. Play one round at a top-rated course (Augusta, etc.) or 10 rounds at a muni?
If you can get me on to Augusta then let's go. Otherwise, we have some really nice munis here in Denver.

3. Drain a 30 footer for par, or hole-out for par? (Just wondering what gets you more pumped.)
Either one... doesn't matter.

4. Use a firm putter with a soft ball, or a soft putter with a firm ball?
I'm using my putter regardless of the ball.

5. Hit a hybrid or wood off the deck?
Again, doesn't matter. Depends on the distance... I hit the woods (3W - 4W) farther than the hybrid (4H or 5H).

6. Play professional golf and struggle to make cuts (and money) or do what you do now and earn a steady salary?
Do what I do now... I'm retired.

7. Play a round in under 3 hours by yourself, or play a 4 hour round with 3 other people?
Play with others. Golf's more fun when it's shared.

8. Walk or ride?
Ride. Used to walk... too much water under my bridge these days.

9. Play in the cold (85*)?
Heat. I don't like heat much either, but 40° is about my limit even when there's no wind.

1. Fairway with 5 iron

2. 10 rounds at a muni 3. Drain a 30 footer for par 4. Use a firm putter with a soft ball 5. Wood off the deck 6. Play professional golf and struggle to make cuts (and money) 7. Play a round in under 3 hours by yourself 8. Walk 9. Heat (>85*)?

[PiKapp23]

1. Hit from the middle of the fairway with a 5-iron, or from the rough with a 9-iron?
As others have said, depends on the rough. Typically I would rather have 9 iron, though.
2. Play one round at a top-rated course (Augusta, etc.) or 10 rounds at a muni?
I guess I take top rated course (probably Augusta, since my mother lives near there anyway).
3. Drain a 30 footer for par, or hole-out for par? (Just wondering what gets you more pumped.)
Putt for Par. At least that means I was on green 1 shot sooner, plus hole-outs are more luck than putt.
4. Use a firm putter with a soft ball, or a soft putter with a firm ball?
I prefer a softer putter, so I'll go with that choice.
5. Hit a hybrid or wood off the deck?
Hybrid
6. Play professional golf and struggle to make cuts (and money) or do what you do now and earn a steady salary?
I'll happily struggle since by playing since at least I'd sturggle doing what I love.
7. Play a round in under 3 hours by yourself, or play a 4 hour round with 3 other people?
I'd rather play with others (as long as I know them - if not, I'd rather play by myself).
8. Walk or ride?
Ride, but it kind of depends on course and weather conditions.
9. Play in the cold (<40*) or in the heat (>85*)?
I'll always choose hot. I've never played in weather too hot (and I've played over 100* a couple times).

[ProfessorGAC]

1. Hit from the middle of the fairway with a 5-iron, or from the rough with a 9-iron?
I HATE this question!!!! Am i a 5 iron out because i popped up a drive and only hit it 210? How did i get in the rough? I'm so confused!!! Actually, i'd always rather be in the fairway.

2. Play one round at a top-rated course (Augusta, etc.) or 10 rounds at a muni?
Augusta. I've already played lots of good munis.

3. Drain a 30 footer for par, or hole-out for par? (Just wondering what gets you more pumped.)
Putt. I'm pretty good with the flatstick, so a 30 footer is not completely luck. Holing out pretty much is.

4. Use a firm putter with a soft ball, or a soft putter with a firm ball?
Soft faced putter, no ball preference.

5. Hit a hybrid or wood off the deck?
Hybrid. I'm blind in my right eye because of MS, so fairway woods always look like their set closed when i'm over the ball. I can still hit them, but i'm never comfortable over the ball.

6. Play professional golf and struggle to make cuts (and money) or do what you do now and earn a steady salary?
If i had the skills, i'd at least try to make a living playing tour golf.

7. Play a round in under 3 hours by yourself, or play a 4 hour round with 3 other people?
Why so long? I'd rather play with my group and play in 3:15 with a foursome. If i'm playing alone, i'll play in 2 hours, not 3.

8. Walk or ride?
Can't walk more than 10 or 12 holes because of the MS. So, i'd rather ride now, since i can't play a full round if i walk. But, if i was able, i'd rather walk.

9. Play in the cold (<40*) or in the heat (>85*)?
Yes! Kidding! Probably the heat, although i regularly play until late November in northeast Illinois. In the heat, you don't have to use as much strategy to keep hands warm. And, the ball behaves more normally. Plus, if it's under 40 and windy, it can suck the fun right out of the game. But, pretty much if it's in the high 30's and not windy, i'm playin'! And, it has to be over 100 and humid for me to not play in hot weather. (Since we have a 7am tee time, that has never happened, iirc.)
