Saw this on TGW the other day and this thread reminded me of it...

That IS awesome. Too expensive for me though.

Been playing just a few months but I play almost every day.

What's in my bag: Distance Master Driver, Maltby Trouble Out woods/hybrids, Maltby KE4 Irons (all assembled by me so I can never blame my equipment).

It wasn't a bad idea, but I definitely won't be doing it again any time soon.

That hill makes me tired just looking at it.

I knew a friend who somehow tried to carry his clubs on the back of his motorcycle, i know not a bike but still similar situation, which is probably more dangerous and I dont think he tries to do that anymore, haven't talked to him for a while. Some sort of way to pull a pull cart behind your bike makes sense, I think it would be very unstable trying to ride while carrying your clubs on your back. Maybe just carry a few clubs. I have a course near here where i think i could play with just a 4h, 9 iron and a putter and probably have a chance to make par on every hole. Its got short holes, longest par 4 is 300 yards the rest range from 200 to 270, and 2 short par 3's, 100 yards and the other is about 130.

I'd guess tired legs would mean alot of pulled shots.

That grade isn't too bad, even with a bag. What makes me tired is the type of bike. A road bike or hybrid is much lighter. Makes you appreciate what the folks do in the TdF. The 15% no category inclines are brutal.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

    • Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out. 
    • Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though. 
    • Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part. 
    • FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.
    • I know Dean Snell designed the original Pro V along with a couple of other brands tour balls.  How exactly does the Snell ball have problems.  Did he change something in the design or is a manufacturing error since he cannot afford the unlimited R&D budgets of the big manufacturers to iron out flaws
