Sneaking onto your local private course is sorta lame. Who cares? But if you had the chance to sneak on Pine Valley or Augusta or someplace like that... then the risk is warranted. Plus you would gain man points for the display of 100% grade A steel balls.

not gonna lie iv gotten into plenty of places. if you walk around like you know what your doing. dont ask questions and dont look confused and youl be fine. just make sure you dress properly, most people at private courses dress in all name brand clothes so if you dress in name brand clothes you will be mistaken for a member usually.
i work at a course and i dress like i do for tournaments some days and some members mistake me for a player occasionally.
edit: i learned from one of my good friends that if you act like you belong and have a confident personality you can usually get into any course without "sneaking" on

Augusta......

What'd happen if you were caught? How would you manage to sneak onto augusta? Would anybody be playing?

Exactly. My aunt has a house about 1 minute from Shinnecock Hills and I have thought about sneaking on many times. I am more at the stage where I drive around the course and look at the holes from different streets by the course. I am more like a stalker at this stage. It sure looks lovely though.

Augusta......

I dont know. That would be the trick. If you could somehow manage to sneak on, play 18 holes, and then escape with none the wiser...then you would be a god among men. At augusta it would probably require a tag-team effort, as im sure that you are required to use a caddy. So you would have to employ a friend to assist in the caper. Im not sure if youre allowed carts, there

So is the inevitability of people trying to justify bad behavior.

I see what you mean "Spare me all the "unethical behavior" or "thats stealing" talk because I could really care less."

I think you own your own cart if you play in augusta.

You can't even pay off the starter, they're either rich or a pedantic old guy

This would be after you've turned away by several security guards before you even reached the first tee. It's pretty much impossible to sneak on pine valley I had the honor of playing there and it's a private community with it's own police. So first you would have to manage to sneak into the community not get caught by the police and then hope you can get to the first tee. Pine Valley has a cool par 3 course so you might have some luck there but I'd doubt it.

Then try sneak through the forest to another teebox?

would be pretty tough with your clubs on your back though

Just reading that when Seve was young he used to sneak onto his local course before dusk and was that true of Tiger as well?

doubt it for tiger.

He was given clubs when he was 2, I'd say he played on the course regularly.

When I played Pebble Beach I saw a couple of teenage idiots (possibly the OP?) hop a fence with their clubs and start playing.

They were a couple of holes behind us, didn't get in our way and I never saw what happened to them.

Had they been in front of us, and interfered with a round that we had paid a lot of money for, I think i would shoved my 6 iron up [ moralizing removed from this space so as not to offend the OP ].

I beg to differ. You seem as if you

Jesus Christ, criminal? Really? I'm not talking about stealing the neighbors car or breaking and entering. Have you done anything in your life you weren't "supposed" to do? You guys completely missed the point of the thread I guess. Thanks for correcting my grammatical error too. You guys can find a way to take the fun out of anything I'll bet.

For the record, I was raised in a great home with plenty of rules. Rules were also meant to be broken or else they wouldn't be called rules. Call me a criminal if you want for stepping over a fence to see a top 10 course in the world that I will otherwise never have the chance to see in my lifetime, but you won't find me feeling bad about it anytime soon. Enjoy playing the muni the rest of your life. After I sneak on San Francisco Golf Club I'll be sure to make a complete write-up of it just for you so you can see what you're missing.

      Driver and Fw3 Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By BananaBomber · Posted

      I am currently playing a Cobra Ltdx LS 9 degree driver and Cobra Ltdx LS FW3. Both with Tensei White stock stiff shafts and original weights of 12g (heel) and 3g (toe). My miss is usually a pull fade or sometimes a slice, swing is out to in. Driver swing speed about 112 mph. Grips are stock regular. Intended change: Driver: Switching to Tensei White x-flex one inch shorter which I suppose would be 44,5? Changing heel weight to 18g. Changing grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Change hosel setting to standard draw. FW3: Changing heel weight to 16g (apparently not available in FW weights, but supposed to be something called "internal weight" a club builder can add which fits between the weight and the screw?). Change grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Changing hosel setting to standard +1. The goal is to 1) get better grip since I tend so lose grip in warm and moist conditions with the current grips and 2) mitigate the misses to start more straight with less side spin. Also considering adding the Cobra Ltdx LS FW5 instead of my old Taylormade R9 and getting 14g heel and 6g toe weights with the same grip as the others and hosel setting standard +1.   All of the above is based on conversations with ChatGPT and, as everyone knows, it can come up with pretty much whatever but I spent a few hours asking about different perspectives etc and this was the recommendation. So, my question is basically, does it make any sense?   Thanks.
