Acropo,
Thanks for the cultural enlightenment. I am about as out of touch with modern trends in disparagement and mick-taking as one could imagine.
My own development in this area was arrested circa 1978 ....

haha, mate we get a bad reputation but in reality it isnt as bad, in fact i love the city, obviously theres parts of it that you stay away from if you dont wanna get in some trouble but on the whole its all good

I was thinking more along the lines of the fans of a guy called "Morrisey"... Certainly a strange group. Manchester United I wrote off a long time ago as merely football hooliganism. We have our own black sheep, we call them WalMart shoppers.

My grandmother dated a guy years and years ago (late 70s, early 80s?), and he walked into a bar in Lauderdale. Asked the bartender where the fags were, got the crap beat out of him. Talk about your cultural faux pass. And, as we're from the U.S., there's not one part of England that we would consider "scary". Consider yourselves lucky. What you guys call a crime spree we call, "damn kids." Our murder rate is 1/3 of what it was 20 years ago, and it's still 3 times higher than England. We're #11 in the world for homicide. And we're absolutely #1 for imprisonment, by a long, long way. Yay, U.S.A... #1!

Camillo is on a roll and still hungery. If not him I think VJ will get his putter working for a change and may win it.

If she is an anesthetist and lives in Australia, there is a remote possibility.

I sense that Camilo is breaking through. Then again, I've had this sense before so I wouldn't bet on it ......

Wow! Really? An anaethsetist? Now living in Australia? No. That's not her. Mine was a nurse. (Phew!)

    • Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.
    • Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.
    • Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.
    • The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.
    • I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
