Lol, he said almost exactly that.

Yeah my wedges came super fast and the putter was probably just over a couple weeks.

Since Erik posted on the forum sometime back about Edel putters and the way you are fit for them, I have wanted to go get one. The thing is they aren't cheap. They aren't much more than an off-the-rac

Well, it took a little longer than I'd hoped, but the putter came today... ...and it's gorgeous: My only (very minor) regret is that I didn't get the "Edel" letters on the front

So I had my Edel fitting with @iacas yesterday morning in Erie at Golf Evolution. I told Erik that if we had something similar to Golf Evolution in Arkansas, my wife would divorce me. Great place to p

Was hoping to save enough money to buy one by the time the season starts but it doesn't look like that'll happen. :(

My wife just texted me this picture of our stair railing at home ...

P.S.  I always pronounced it ED-el, then thought that it was Adele, like the singer, but I spoke to a woman from the company today, clearly from Texas, who pronounced it A-del (rhymes with 'able').  To avoid any confusion, from now on, though, I think I'll just pronounce it "mine." :-P

David Edel calls it "ed ell" (with a "d" sound about as firm as in Adele the singer). So that's what I go with.

Sorry about the quintuple posts, but when I tried to upload the pics all at once from my phone it just loaded the last one and in place of the rest it just showed (IMG);) Anyways, very excited to break out the turf track and test this bad boy out when the kids go to bed. For now ... Frozen. ;)

So cool @Golfingdad!

Thanks, yeah, I'm pretty excited to start using this thing.  I'll probably skip lunch tomorrow and head out to the practice green. :)

Looks similar to mine, except I went with the full on anser head, all the lettering is painted green (Jets baby), and it has onset. Still, very similar. I like.

Haha, that kind of reminds me of the box the Red Ryder BB gun comes in in a Christmas Story . Probably felt the same way in your heart when you saw it too :-D

Yeah, I have no imagination for that stuff.  Left some of the optional stuff off, and didn't really put any thought into what else I could write** or which colors I could use.  Went with Fresno State colors ...

If it wasn't for you, I would almost certainly have put CAS on the face above the dots, but for obvious reasons I left that off.  Of course, if it wasn't for you, I'd have never heard of Edel, so I wouldn't have ever had one of these in the first place.  ;)

So... 2 1/2 weeks of waiting and I've become a bit impatient. I decided to call Edel to check the status of the order and he informed me it was in his hand and on the way out the door today!!!

Oh yeah, so for those who are curious but don't want to go back and do the math ... it's Tuesday right now, and I did my fitting the Saturday morning before last.  Start to finish, it was a whopping TEN days for me to get this thing!! :beer:

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By mdl · Posted

      Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
