Has anyone made a purchase that your foursome looks at you and wonders "what is that?" or "why in the world did you buy that?"  I don't mean any clubs or golf balls.  If I'm not making any sense, here's my example:

My friends all shake their hands and give me questioning looks when I use it.  I admit that I rarely use it and I purchased it on a whim but am I the only one with a purchase that give pause to the others in your group?

I recently played with a guy that had something rigged up to his pull cart to hold his burning cigarettes. The only time one wasn't in his hands or lips was when he took a shot.

I have a little plastic thing that clips to my bag and holds my tees all nice and pretty. I get made fun of for it.

A friend of mine in college had a plastic hand to keep his glove on strapped to his bag.

The guys I play with are pretty brutal on each other. Being caught with any silly golf accessory will get you the razzing of your life. We had a guy show up with iron covers for one of our games and we nearly had him in tears, needless to say it was the last time we saw them. Heck, having a ball retriever in your bag is a faux pas punishable by death! :-P

I guess the weirdest thing is that I have two towels?  lol

I have a miniature golf bag hanging off of my real golf bag....it is a cigar humidor and the "pouch" on the front of it holds lighters, cutters etc.

Essential equipment, you understand....

Oh God... I forgot about the iron covers and ball retriever.  He had those too.

As for two towels, ain't nothing wrong with that.  One for wiping clubheads and one for wiping grips and hands.

Heck, I have 3 towels hanging from mine. 1 that I get damp before the game to help clean the clubs, another that I use to dry the clubs, and one that I use for my hands and grips.

I guess that only odd thing I have in my bag is a swing trainer club. It's weighted and has a training grip. It technically gives me 15 clubs, but I never use it except at the range, and I just don't feel like taking it out. If I was playing a tourney or something like that I would take it out. But I always just play friendly games for fun.

I don't have anything too odd. The oddest thing might be my cleat fixing tool... I have had a habit of losing cleats mid-round, which is why I also keep replacement cleats in my bag.

I have two towels, one is attached to my bag and the other is loose so I can carry it onto the green to wipe my ball.

I have one of these on my bag.... because I have an older buddy who always greets me with "Hey, you got your balls out of your wife's purse today?" or "Hey, you got your balls back, what's up? glad you could make it!"

Now everyone knows my balls are actually on my bag!

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By GolfLug · Posted

      I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      By iacas · Posted

      Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By iacas · Posted

      No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.

      Too Old?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry
