Wow. I didn't even know they made clubs that expensive. Insane.

Sadly, it won't...but when you tell people how much you paid, it will make your penis look a lot smaller

When I hear about a huge price tag on a car, especially in a lease ad, my usual response is something like "for that kind of money, the cup holder better be a guy named Charles."  (no idea why I picked the name Charles for this)

Anyone care to help me formulate a similar joke about overly expensive golf clubs?

I saw one of these on display at the local golf town. It looks even more shiny and ridiculous in person. It was on sale for 2400.

If Cameron made a driver I'll bet it would be comparable.

Actually this could be a big help in getting spousal OK for a new driver.   "Well the best driver out there is $3000, but this new (fill in name here) is only $400 and will work nearly as well, so in the spirit of compromising I will put up with the lesser performance and save us $2600".     Think I'll try this tonight and see what the wife says......

0 Reviews and it came out in 2009 huh?

I guess no1 is taking the bait. Perhaps when I own my 195ft Yatt and am sailing around the coast of Italy in a few years I can use this to hit precious stones into the water.

I had one but didn't like the grip so I cut it up and made me some new teeth.

I think the real question here is would you rather have the OP's all gold driver or this

http://www.homewetbar.com/Fully-Automatic-Golf-Club-Kooler-Klub-p-1038.html?utm_source=giftscom&utm;_medium=Referral&utm;_campaign=Product

The driver that also serves you cold Jim Beam and Cokes.

My vote is for the booze dispensing driver.

    • Day 36: back to some mirror work tonight. Need a bit more forearm roll in my feels to help with the shallowing. 
    • _sigh_ so close to red text.  Went away for three days, but didn't do a practice morning-of-departure (Friday) nor evening-of-return (Sunday), so I had three misses, back to day one. Day 1, May 4 2026.  At home today, spent nearly an hour in my practice room, hitting about three dozen practice balls, primarily with my 6-iron.
    • Day 254 5-4 Arms off chest in backswing and downswing. Short swing, pause and then hit.  Hit foam balls. Keeping arching of wrist a focus as well. 
    • I would think of it in terms of time. The time it takes to get the arm angle into a good position to deliver the club with proper shaft lean. Another component is rotation, but that is also a matter of timing. It relates to how the body stalls to give the golfer time to hit the ball. If you have to get 80+ degrees out of that right elbow in one third of a second versus 50 degrees in the same time then you have to steal time from somewhere. It is usually body rotation. That does not help with shaft lean.  I agree in that amateurs tend to make the swing more complicated than pro golfers. 
    • I haven't been able to practice like I wanted and won't for the next week.  1. The weather sucks in Ohio this year. I have been mostly inside hitting foam balls. Just kind of my basic stuff.  2. I woke up last Saturday with a left side rib muscle on fire. If I turned or leaned a certain way it would spasm that almost buckled my knees. I have been taking a break to let that settle. I don't want to get a long term injury. I think I pinched a nerve or just aggravated a muscles.   3. I am going on a mini-vacation to Florida (screw you Ohio weather) with a friend, and rolling that into a work conference I have next week. I will be with out my clubs for a week.  I will be back next in two Fridays to hit the ground running with some warmer temps and better weather in Ohio, hopefully. I would really like to get more out on the course and the range.
