I'm not sure if this has been asked already, but it would be kinda cool if us forum members arranged a gathering to go play some golf Obviously we couldn't do a nation-wide thing, but perhaps interstate gatherings could work. Seems like we all are grouped in certain areas.

What do you guys think...no money has to be involved... haha The wintry months would give us time to plan, etc. Would be fun.

maybe regional rounding per year?

It will be awesome if we meet in person to share out interest and enjoy a day.

If people were up to that, it could happen.

Would be cool. But it would probably have to be broken down into regions.

I figured inter-state groups would be best...

I'm basically in the city, off of 610 and San Felipe.

I remember there was a guy about 30-40 minutes drive from me, but he doesn't seem to be around anymore. Shame, because he recommended a course to try and I played/loved it, so I could have come to have a social round with him. I don't think there are many people in the UK/GB at all, so I guess this is a strictly Yank ordeal if it happens

Ireland is on my 'places I have to see' list and is quickly becoming short listed. I figure it will be the next major trip that is taken after we get the kids to one of the Disney theme parks.

Great idea. Lots of feedback from the Texans.
I'd say a course midway between DFW and Houston would be ideal.
Here are some course suggestions:
http://www.whisperingpinesgolfclub.com/ expensive (never played but always ranked high on lists)
www.crown-colony.com never played this one either, but highly ranked
www.pinedunes.com affordable and would get my vote.
http://www.woodforestgolf.com be my second place vote.

Does anyone know if Waterwood National in Huntsville plans on reopening?

      3 Wood Shafts

      By rod7515 · Posted

      Im struggling to hit a 3 wood any distance. Im 67 now and used to use a 3 wood all the time. My swing speed with the 3 woods is between 80-84. I am only 5'5" tall. I currently have 4- 3 woods in my used club selection. I have an old Titliest 910FD, a Taylormade Sim2, a PXG gen 4 and a Ping G430. None of these can i hit more than 180 yards and often much shorter. My driver which is a Ping G430 I hit about 210-225. Heres the crazy thing, I carry a Taylormade Sim2- 7 wood that I hit 175-185. I carry an older titliest H1 Hybrid 23* that i hit 165-175. All yardages are with carry. When i hit both the Hybrid and the 7 wood they feel like very solid strikes yet I never feel like i hit any of these 3 woods solid. All of these clubs have regular shafts of different manufacturers. I would like to be able to hit a 3 wood 200 yards. Im thinking I need to start playing with shafts, Maybe even shorten them some. I have equipment to pull shafts and set swingweights and reglue. I have a bunch of reg flex old driver shafts that i could shorten. My driver, 7 wood and Hybrid are all D3 Swingweight. The 3 woods are D3 as well.  Where would you start? Thanks Rod

      Can Somebody Explain to Me Why Lie Angle Balanced Putters Are Important?

      By rod7515 · Posted

      This was a great read from start to finish. Ive been watching the LAB putters for 3 or 4 years now. Ive never been a good putter and Ive worked at putting but i just dont seem to get better at it. I play at least 3 times a week with a 11.6 Hdcp and i have owned probably 20+ putters over my last 10 years. Ive even tried the broomstick putters which at first I thought helped but as time went on i missed just as many putts. For me it comes down to nerves which i struggle to control when putting. I always feel like i have someone leaning over me watching my every move when i putt. I had a friend I play with this fall go get fitted for a LAB and he came back all excited, he bought one and he was already a player that probably averages 32 putts a round. So i think I would say hes a good putter. I used his putter a few times and the feeling i get compared to my putter which right now is a Ping Vault 2.0 Piper and just before that an Evnroll ER5v and before that Spyder Ghost........anyway the feeling I notice was that i can take the putter back without it twisting some. At least thats the feeling i get. I dont know if i would be a better putter with a LAB putter but after this year i will know as I went and was fitted and have one on the way. I can only hope it makes a differnce. If not ive got plenty of putters to fall back on!  Rod
