If you were given $500, what would you buy?

[kpaulhus]

I am playing in the Winn Dixie Jacksonville Pro Am next Wednesday and I was told I am going to be receiving a $500 tee gift to purchase anything currently made by Taylormade and Adidas. I dont need shoes. Everything is pretty expensive, Supertri =$500. Penta balls=$54. What should I get? My setup is below. What would you get?

[Fat Slice]

Balls and gloves!

[sean_miller]

Rain suit.

Yea, if you like the Penta's then load up $500 worth. I never pass up a chance to load up on golf balls and gloves when the right deal comes around. Given your set up (drooling over those 710CB's...) IMHO you don't need any equipment but getting 9 dozen golf balls seems pretty sweet to me!

Do you need a new bag?

sean_miller....dont really need a rain suit, plus its like $450.

Thank you very much. They should be shipped to my house this Friday! So Pumped.

Do you need a new bag?

I have a nice cart bag, but no stand bag..they R9 stand bag on the sheet is $130.

The penta is a great ball and I probably should buy a few gloves. I was thinking about dumping my 4h which has a regular shaft and getting a 19* hybrid, or a 5 wood. I'm also in the process of switching from a 46* PW, 52, 56, 60 setup, and going to play a 47*pw, 54sw, 60lw that way I can carry an extra hybrid/wood. I really really like my callaway wegdes tho so I probably will not get a taylormade xft wedge.

Any club you're not 100% happy with ?

Taylormade's rep is their drivers/woods, so if there's one that you like, go get it..

Otherwise, new bag, new balls, new clothes, maybe ?

[kpaulhus]

Maybe Ill get the SuperTri and sell it to someone on here cheap? lol Im def going to pick up a few climacool shirts.

Pretty good guess though, eh? Almost nailed the price.

[glbrum]

9 dozen Penta's and a $14 divot tool

Great guess. Happy late Thanksgiving!

I'd grab a box or two of pentas. Also, have you hit the Superfast TP?

Id buy a gap wedge and spend the rest on balls. You likely have a pretty big yardage gap between your PW and your 56*.

His index is dropping like a stone, so he's managing to get around it somehow.

[billysandy]

I would get a loada pentas, one or two of the new ghost putters, a white cap, some new clothes

Lessons and club membership. The clubs I have now are good enough for my skill level, now I just need to learn and practice to get better.

I will be picking up a Callaway 54* wedge since my 56* is pretty worn out. The $500 can only be used on Taylormade gear, and they only offer a 52 or 56 for this particular event.

I have to spend the money at the event next week. Its not $500 cash.

Thank you for noticing. 19 to a 7 in one year.

Sorry didn't notice that. You look pretty well set on clubs. Guess you could upgrade the driver to an R9 SuperTri, but you seem to be pretty loyal to Callaway and Titleist based on your signature. Another option, which I'd likely go with, would be to find someone that's looking for some TM products that would be willing to give you close to market value for them, then use the cash to buy something else.
