Gilberg - Keep it up guy.

Yep, I get downright giddy when Gilberg comes by to visit.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

I'm a lefty.

Whenever my buddy and I tee it up with another 2 some, the thing that absolutely stands my hairs up is the oldest saying in the world.

"No wonder he can't golf, he's standing on the wrong side of the ball"

I came close to taking a head off with a 460CC after I heard it the 30th time.

Get a life guys, Michaelangelo and DiVinci were left handed. I'm proud to be in that group

P.S. I took Ernest's suggestion and read the old Gilberg posts. I am now a fan.

I did as well.  Really good.  If he is a member of other types of message boards, I would join them as well to see what he posts.  Maybe he has a blog?

Yeah. So's a screen door.

Sorry to go OT, but hey, it's a Gilberg post...

Reminds me of the couple times during my college days I watched someone at a party not realize that the screen door was closed while holding a full solo cup of beer. Not many things on this planet that are funnier. We're talking guffawing days later...yet doesn't quantum mechanics support the notion that there is a small probability that they could have made it through?

Gilberg, see what you have done?

When you're addressing your tee shot and accidentally knock the ball off the tee, there's always a guy who has to say "One" .

Also, if you think I'm not going to sarcastically use "putt shot" from here on out you are outside of your mind.

"Get in hole!" on the tee at a par 5 - Really?  Have another beer and take another swipe with the wii controller and try to make that happen.

      My Swing (billchao)

      By billchao ·

      Went to a PING fitting day today. Going to be ordering a G430 Max 3w with a 75g x-stiff shaft at 5w length and a 3h. I forget what my fitter did with the shaft on that but she told me she’s going to email the club the specs of everything. The 3w combination we found pretty quickly. As for the hybrid, we tried a bunch of different head and shaft combinations for that distance with mixed results. Then she handed me the 3h and I took three swings with it and knew it was the one.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      By iacas ·

      Yeah, this isn't sandbagging. It's outright cheating. He should be banned.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By billchao ·

      That’s quite a generalization. It’s clear that you don’t like water but there are plenty of us that drink it just fine. My daily intake is usually about 20oz of black coffee, 16oz of soda, 8oz of milk mixed into a protein shake, and anywhere between 30-60oz of water. It doesn’t even need to be cold and I kind of prefer it closer to room temperature than cold. I quite like the taste of tap water, with sole exception being the tap water at Magic Kingdom (it’s terrible). I can’t stand when people bring me tap water with a lemon wedge in it. I didn’t ask for lemon in my water.

      By billchao ·

      This is the part I don’t get. He’s not even kind of sandbagging, he’s blatantly doing it and submitting scores that are verified to be incorrect. How he’s not banned from competition is beyond me.

      One handed swing faster?

      By davidgolfman ·

      He's right in what he's saying.I also have done this experiment with a golf shaft swinging with one arm at a time.one arm at a time is for me very fast but both hands together are very slow ..I got my 17 year old son to do this experiment and he swung very fast with either hand and he swung very fast with both hands together..My conclusion up to now is ; I'm not using my wrists properly but I not a 100 percent sure just yet..I will keep trying to fathom this out .I'm a 12 handicap and my son is 3.9 at Westlancs..
