My drunk ass got carried away one night and bought a Scotty Cameron Futura putter a couple years ago. Always wanted to try it out and thought why the hell not? I used it for about 2 rounds, hated it, and threw it back in the closet where it still sits today. Thanks Natty Lite

Put it back out on eBay, I do that all the time with golf equipment. I buy it, try it, if I don't like it, I resell it. I break even on my resell more times than not.

....and clubs are just not as cuddlie as a wife/gf....

When sleeping with your clubs, they are

almost as cold as the stair you will get from buying them in the first place...

I tried selling some equipment.....I sold my Wilson Driver that I paid $50 delivered (new), used it about 3 times before I got my Burner, sold it on e-Bay for $22 delivered, it cost me about $15 to ship. Now my Burner is back with TM (head came loose).

Moral of the story ... unless you can make a good deal of dough on your sell....keep it as a back up!

I am playing a round tomorrow with my 3w as my driver ... or a buddy's Nike Sqtch Senior flex....that should be interesting!
It's the indian, not the arrow! But it sure is nice to have good arrows!!!!!

thats so true. used golf clubs lose soooo much of their resale value unless they are certain clubs/brands. i prefer to just keep my stuff now unless i know i can get a decent amount for it

I'm gonna need to see that blog.. lol

can't do it, I deleted it, but not after half the world and all my friends and her's read it. Yep, that stuff that came from an old radiator cost me plenty, including her. I thought Jim Beam was bad but when that doesn't work any more, don't get on the 'shine

    • Day 9: 2026.01.11 Hit some balls at the range, concentrating on weight distribution at address, got some on film.
    • Day 468 - 2026-01-11 Loooooong day. Did some work in the patio door (as a mirror) when I got home.
    • I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
