just a note to say Hi...lookin' forward to being a part of your community!
I haven't been playing golf long, but love the game... still tryin' to break a hundred....be gentle with the newbie folks...

Welcome aboard...how close are you on breaking 100? what is your goals for this year...age...tell us some more about yourself
What's In The Bag?

Driver - Rapture 10.5 Epic 68g X-Pure - Balance Certified

I'll be 50 this Sept...and I hope to break 100 this year. I went to a "instructor" @ the local range, and he tried to help, but it was SLOOOW...then I found a video that said he could "teach me to hit the ball as straight as I could point..."
I know what yer thinkin' too.... but Bro, after doing what he says, I shaved 10 strokes off the 1st round I played this year(I've only played 3 thus far...too busy) . I was on track to break 100 last Sun, but I plumb wore out. I bucket- washed two vehicles before I went to the course(where I proceded to hit a bucket before the rd.) I hate to admit that I'm not the man I was @ 30....but I won't be so foolish before my next rd..whenever that may be. We have several nice courses w/i driving distance,should anyone be interested in playing in the Mountain State. I love the game of golf, and wished I had got into it 35 years ago......

    • Day 25: 1/4/2025 Mirror day. I did some good mirror work with a 7 iron. Once again focus here is on pushing the carpet away with my lead leg. Sort of like I'm sitting in a office chair and want to scoot across the room.  Later, I used the putting mirror on the putting mat. Rolling 8 footers down a straight line on the mat. 
    • Day 96 - 2025-01-04 Fighting it. Keeping my streak alive, but not by a lot. Got all of seven minutes or so in today. Maybe eight. 😛 Still backswing. Trip next week might be interesting, ha ha. Not gonna worry about it.
    • What does this have to do with the topic?
    • The Top flite Gamer, designed by Callaway, was once an excellent budget ball and won many gold awards from Golf Digest. The original Gamer was a 3 piece ball with a urethane cover. The 2024 version is a 2 piece ball with a cheaper ionomer cover. The top ball below clearly shows the cheaper 2024 2 piece Gamer and the bottom is the 2021 3 piece Gamer.   DSG acquired the brand from Callaway and has systematically destroyed it.
    • Unfortunately, not because of my health. This year, I was dealing with ankylosing spondylitis, which had a huge impact on my performance—and not in a good way. But with my new treatment, I hope to get in better shape
