Hey how are those new Taylormade Penta balls? Have you gotten a chance to play them yet? Thinking about buying a dozen.

The real deal, IMO :) Very spinny. Have had a box for 2 weeks now, and finally got to try them yesterday. Well worth trying.

I got 3 dozen pro v1 practice, an adidas golf shirt (pretty nice, 100% polyster blue I love adidas golf shirts), Dave Pelz damage control book, Stack and tilt book,, and Ping golf pants . I actually bought all of those things myself. I buy my own gifts so I get what I want. My wife got me a cashmoire sweater. I'd never spend that on a sweater but I can't take it back.

Read any of the Pelz book yet? I have raed through some of teh "Short Game Bible" and was wandering about your title. If it was a good read, I was going to see about getting a copy.

I have looked through it just a bit. I am in the middle of the stack and tilt book so I haven't started reading it. It seems great for me. I have "those" holes and if I didn't I would be so much better (made an 8 in my club championship last year ugghhh)

A week before Christmas my irons arrived. I have been playing Titleist AP1's for ta season and my game has improved so I treated myself to some "new" 2008 AP2 with Rifle 5.0. They look like they have never been hit and cost €390 and I sold my old AP1's for €270 so €120 to trade up I think was a great deal. My golfing Christmas present from my wife is a full Titleist TPI Screening and follow up lessons. I go for my first screening on Friday and can't wait!

I sent off an old Scotty Cameron TeI3 Newport putter to the SC Custom Shop. I bought it back when I was a kid, saving up all my money one summer because I just had to have it after seeing it at the golf shop. Iused it while I in high school, and it's been sitting in my parent's garage ever since. I pulled it out over Thanksgiving this year and saw that years sitting in the garage (plus my non-so-nice treatment) had taken it's toll. I decided to send it off to be re-done. I set it all up, sent it off, and then told my wife that's what she was getting me for Christmas :) .

I also got a bunch of cold-weather golf clothes (pull-overs, jacket, rain pants).

Well I got a new Nike Xtreme Carry lite II stand bag, Cleveland HiBore XLS 9.5* driver, Nike DyMo 4 wood. Then with the extra Christmas Money I bought I picked up a Yes Tiffany putter, and a Nickent 3dx Hybrid. All in all, it was a great Christmas for golf. Oh and almost forgot, my parents got me some Titleist Pro V1 golf balls with my name on the side also for use in the High School tournaments this coming year.

santa didn't bring me what i wanted so i bought myself some some new grips. went to take off the old ones today and almost cut my thumb down to the bone with a hook razor. blood was EVERYWHERE i did not know you could lose so much blood from a finger/thumb. hook razors are painful ouch. the worst part is it sliced all the way under my fingernail and cut way deeper than a hook razor should.

Funny, I cut up my left index finger pretty bad yesterday as well. It was with a serrated bread knife while slicing bread for a sandwich. Luckly it's on a place where it (hopefully) shouldn't affect my golf grip. Maybe I'm just crazy but the first thing that went through my mind was, "I wonder how long it'll take to heal before I can grip a golf club."

    • Although the base rules don't make this really clear, the Player must have decided to use Unplayable Ball relief before lifting the ball.  This exact situation is discussed in the Committee Procedures section of the Rules, section 6C(8).  Section 6C addresses how to rule when a Player proceeds under a Rule that does not apply.  Note that 9.4 applies, 9.4 deals with a player moving his ball when no rule allows it.   Rule 9.4 penalizes the Player for lifting his ball when not permitted by the Rules, and requires him to replace it.  Since he dropped and played from a different place, the Wrong Place penalty applies.  As for a serious breach, that would only apply if the Wrong Place gave him a really significant advantage.  Since he could have taken Unplayable Ball relief in essentially the same spot, for just 1 penalty stroke, the Wrong Place penalty of 2 strokes is enough "punishment", there's no need to consider a DQ.
