Hi TST Community!  The PGA Show was a great experience, had a lot of fun, worked hard and got very little sleep I took a lot of pictures and some video.  I wanted to give you guys a feel for what this event is like.  The convention center is huge, filled with everything golf related item you can think of.  Got to see a few golf celebrities, Paula Creamer, Lee Trevino, Lexi Thompson, Natalie Gulbis and Jack Nicklaus.  So hear are some more pics and more videos.  More will be added throughout the next couple days.  Enjoy!

Are carmakers making clubs a new trend?

I do like those Aston Martin blades. Wonder if the likes of Ferrari, Lambo, and other exotics will start to make clubs as well.

Best Regards,
Ryan

Not crazy about the look of their woods though. Any idea who is making the clubs for Mercedes and Aston? I assume it's like any other branding where the just tweak the esthetic design a little and slap a logo on it.

Only thing missing on those Air Force Ones is the Nike swoosh. Kinda looks like the Cobra ZL Encore.

I agree, wasn't a fan of the woods.  I was wondering if Lambo had any clubs there?  Were the Mercedes irons for purchase or just show?  Probably don't make lefties anyway.

Lambo did a partnership with Callaway last year, the tech was used in the metal woods.  Not sure how much the Mercedes stuff is but yes you could have order them there.

I like the car clubs, all of them in the slideshow, even Edel or whatever look cool, but how do they perform?

Here's a great presentation of the new Tour Edge stuff.  I really liked their 3 wood, the XCG5.  Cool looking irons too

I guess James Bond is playing Golf again. How much for an Aston Martin bag.......the one with the missiles? Update: I just Goggled it. Aston Martin partnered with MD Golf which markets its clubs as "high quality at a middle price." Forget it! I has hoping for handmade irons that cost at least 3 times as much as Muira's. No make that 10X! :-D Only the best of the best go into the back of my Toyota. :whistle:

      Ever Get Paired up With a Twosome Including a 2 Year Old?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
