Like the title asks.......I was on a trip recently and toted my clubs along, as Cape Breton has some beautiful courses to experience. The day before I left, I decided to give the rental car a once over to rid it from 2 weeks of sand and dirt from visiting the beach. I decided to do this in the driveway (mistake number one). I had taken out my soft travel case and placed it in the drive (mistake number two) as I hadn't planned on moving the vehicle at all. You can see where this is leading.
Since I hadn't pulled the car up far enough into the yard, the short extension cord wasn't long enough to reach both sides with the vacuum. "I'll just turn it around" I quipped to myself. I did so without checking the driveway (mistake number three, and the final blow). I could hear the crunching as the rear tire ran over the heads of both the FT-i and my old favorite Bertha. Luckily nothing else was damaged. I won't lie.....I was fighting to hold back that tear that was welling up in my eye.

Lol, I just ordered the LCG version with a matrix xcon6 shaft from callaway pre-owned as a replacement. I'm happy, but the wife isn't, although she did laugh when I walked into the house carrying the driver with the drooping head cover. (Edit: I ordered the club via online not even 2 hours ago, and it has shipped already....wow!)

Yes I did get to play, thankfully.

Can you run over my putter as well?

Send it to me.

    • I love Rancho Park too!  I don't get out there much due to the 405 issues (Im in Santa Clarita) but I do try and get out there every now and then...last time out was in January where I eagled 17 (left green) with a holed 145 yard third shot ! Rancho is a great course! And at 24 bucks weekday with the city card, an absolute steal!        
    • I have played PGA West, at least one or two courses in there, but I am not sure if I've played any of the courses used to host the Hope. I played a course that I think both isn't PGA West and is host to the Hope a few years ago, possibly at a TST outing, but I'm not sure if I'm thinking of the right one. I have played Rancho Park plenty of times (exactly half of my sub-80 rounds were there!) and Wilson/Harding.  Rancho Park might be my favorite golf course among those I've played more than a half dozen times.   Hopefully I'll get a chance to play TPC Scottsdale, maybe this August or September, and at some point I think there was a PGA Tour event in Las Vegas, I should get up there and play those course(s).
