G'day everyone, thought I better introduce myself. I am a 38 yr old kiwi golf nut, been playing now for 8 years. I play off a 15 at the Manukau Golf Club here in Auckland NZ - if you are ever down under, feel free to let me know & I am sure that I can arrange a round or two! We can play all year round down here - temperatures range from up to 30 celsius (summer) down to 10 celsius (winter) - (that's 86 farenh to 50 farenh for the Northern Hemisphere folk).
I am a very keen traveller also and often take the clubs away with me. I will be in the Palm Springs/Palm Desert Cal. area in early June this year for a week, so will be playing a few courses, as well as updating my set (cannot wait!) - any suggestions regarding best courses to play there, when to play & how to get a game there will be appreciated.
Really enjoy the forum, lots of great tips, ideas and lots of interesting characters here!

Currently playing:
Driver - Adams Redline 10.5 deg
3 wood - Wilson Killer Whale 15 deg
Hybrid - Cleveland Halo 3i
Irons - Mizuno T-Zoid 3-sw graphite shaft
Putter - Ping blade

Assessing new sets at present - like look of Callaway x-20 (reg & tour), Cobra fp, Taylormade r-7 (reg & tour). Considering switch to steel shaft. Definitely getting FT-5 driver (it is wow!)

Cheers - Stevo

    • Day 233 (22 Dec 24) - Very late afternoon session (after watching the PNC finish - much more entertaining than the Showdown) with the 50deg, hitting nippy low flighted chips.  Really focused on foot position and keeping swing smooth.   As light was fading fast and temps were heading south of freezing, session was pretty abbreviated. 
    • Tiger’s walking at the PNC and people say he’s not limping.  
    • I haven't heard much of anything about it. Faux leather, sure. Biodegradable leather? No. No idea. You're a bit too new, still, to post links.
    • Okay, I'm genuinely curious about this "biodegradable leather" trend in golf. Are we talking snake oil here? I mean, golf balls, clubs... they all end up in the water eventually. Is this just greenwashing, or is there actually a real environmental benefit? And honestly, does it even perform as well as traditional leather? I don't want to sacrifice distance for the planet, you know? Anyone with real-world experience with these eco-friendly golf goods? Spill the tea!
