With a shaved head I have to go with a cap. Nothing is worse than burning a shaved head. In the winter a fleece hat is also a must.

I picked this up (plus one for my friend) for a golf trip souvenir, and gotta say I kinda like it. It's 100% wool, so it's warm but breathes well, and the lining sticks to your head nicely in a wind. Around here I can only use it for morning rounds, though, as you really need a brim to keep the sun out of your eyes in the afternoon. Just gotta work up the cojones to add the matching tartan kilt....

In the bag:
FT-iQ 10° driver, FT 21° neutral 3H
T-Zoid Forged 15° 3W, MX-23 4-PW
Harmonized 52° GW, Tom Watson 56° SW, X-Forged Vintage 60° LW
White Hot XG #1 Putter, 33"

It's obvious to all of us that people play golf in either a hat or a visor, and personally I am always good with hats. I don't know what it is about visors, but my hair flops over and it is all a big mess. That being said, I was wondering what everybody thought about this little apparel debate.

We must harness the crystiles.

    • Hitting toward the toe and on the toe are two different things. Clubs are more forgiving and since manufactures track data they build game improvement clubs to help golfers when they hits towards the toe. I think its Wilson Staff that actually put that wording in their product details for one of their irons. As for your back, all I can say is stretch, I'm no doctor so cant offer much. Here's a drill for you if you are interested.(Buy some spray foot powder and spray your club face when you hit some shots. ) At the range, out in front of you, place a ball directly in front of your position a few yards out, then one off to the left and right. Take turns hitting shots to the center then outside the left ball and outside the right ball or between two of them. Dont adjust your body position or alignment. Set up like you were going to hit the ball straight out in front of you then just use your hands to open/ close the club face to make the ball go to the left or right. My instructor had me doing that last year for club face control and I finally got the hang of it and could manipulate the club face and I was hitting in the center of the club face. it worked for me. Just an idea. 
    • When he broke up with Caroline he won like five events in a row, including two majors. This didn't just happen Monday morning — this has been going on for awhile, and he won his last two starts.
    • The GP's sound like they are their "Tour Wrap" grips - have them on a number of my used sets.  I don't have large hands but have found that midsize grips at my age (soon to be 65) really fit the bill.  I've played Winn Dri Tac's, Tacki Macks, GP Tour Velvets among others.  These days its more the GP Tour Velvet mdi-size grips.  The best thing to do is hit up your local pro-shop or big store like Dicks/Golf Galaxy and test fit the grips.  Then you can figure what works best for how they feel in your hands.  
    • My goals this year are really not much different than last year. I am a little late but here they are:  1. Ball speed consistently 150+ 2. Handicap to 3  3. Scrambling at 50% or better  4. Compete in events  Coming off an injury and then rehabbing the speed training had to be put on the back burner. Ball speed last week was averaging 147 so close but not quite there. My handicap at my club when I joined was 4.2, went up to 6 and is currently at 3.9 from the Men's tees. I did hang out with 2 ex Korn Ferry guys at my club and got some great short game help really controlling low point. Scrambling is just over 40% and climbing. It is something I am really working on. I have been competing more and made the qualifier for our club championship (last place qualified by shooting 81 with a quadruple bogey on the 6th hole). I went to 18 against a former club champ and lost 1 down on 18.  I got skunked at the Member Guest championship flight but won the championship flight in our Member Member (got knocked out in finals). The progress is there, and now that I retired and am consulting on my own, I do have more time to practice and play. 
    • Day 13 (14 May 24) - Did the monthly play nine while walking round today.  Even with gusty winds, drizzly conditions I had a blast taking a walk to enjoy the round.  Played the DCI 962 irons as I have not played them on the course this year.  I know they are late 90's technology, but man they hit well when struck pure.  Was a solid round as there were no dbl bogies, but five bogies.  Next goal is to complete a nine with no "sixes" on the card.
