Count me and my son in as well (possibly my daughter, she would need to play from the ladies tees).

We had a great time, even posting horrible scores.

It did a great thing for him, it made him eager to practice :-)

He loved playing 7400 yards, and looks forward to getting his butt kicked by another hard round.

I vote for the date & course that causes the most stress & problems for BeachComber so that I can beat his 5 handicap brains in.

Excellent!  I think we're up to 19 or so people now.  This is great!

I don't think there are any PGA events starting right after we leave, so there shouldn't be any problems with the tee markers this time around. ;)

I also answer to Andy and Andrew, and for that matter, "hey, a**hole" works too. ;)

Hey GD sounds like your wife has the same name for you as mine!

Only mine changes from a**hole to FU and a few others..ha-ha.

Sounds like a GD a**hole would be the only person that would make a kid play from 7400!

I spoke with the guy at the course and asked if he'd set up the special "secret" tees for us that day and he said yes.  They're not even on the card, but they're 7700 yards!  I just have to remember to give him the password when we get there that day.  (It's "masochism")

Of course, I am kidding!

And, to be fair ... it wasn't 7400, it was about 7000.  Further, there was a slight misunderstanding because Erik was not given any ages, only handicaps, and set all of the under 16's to the 6800 tees (that unbeknownst to us were pushed back to 7k - actually more but we took care of it ;)) and all of the over 16's to one set forward at 6300 or something like that.

For Talega, I would recommend we play the blue tees ... which are at 6600 or so, and all people over handicap "x" (20, maybe??) play from the whites.  (And, of course, all females from the reds :))

He doesn't have any friends.  Also, forgot to mention, his punishment for bailing last time is that he, and he alone, has to play from the Copper tees!

Just talked to Mark, we are confirmed for June 23rd at 8:00 for 16 guys (which can be adjusted).  They couldn't do much with the price, got it down to $80.

LOL ... Beachcomber pretending like he has "people."  That's cute.

Great job Mike!  Can't wait for the 23rd!

      Swing Caddie 300 First Use

      By birdman03 ·

      I have used SC300 for several years.  It is reasonably good for gapping your club carry distances.  You have to be careful about placing the unit behind the ball on level ground as specified in the manual.  Also keep in mind that carry and total distances are calculated from algorithms.  You will get best accuracy on your carries by hitting to targets at known distances on the range. Look closely at your Smash Factor numbers - those will tell you if your strikes are optimal. Should be around 1.35 for 7I and 1.48 for Driver.  I also recommend using face tape or powder spray to check for center contact.  You may not be getting maximum distance on your driver hits because you are not hitting in the center of the face and/or the club path through the ball is off.   I recently upgraded to SC4 Pro.  It does allow measurement of clubhead speed without hitting a ball.  It also measures start direction, which can tell you something about your swing path.  SC300 does not do either of those things.
