Congrats.

Bad news was I was disqualified because I didn't say 7 words....and I'm assuming I would have won since I was the first to pick Rory and had him at -17. I'm sick as sick can be over that. Not happy, but accept it.

Good news......I won $250 because I put some $$$ down on Rory pre-tourney.

That's not the full story. You changed your entry too. And got a PM about it. Congrats on your $250.

Not the players...just the scores of the 2nd and 3rd guy by accident by two strokes.Thanks, though.

Bad news for @saevel25 is the driver does not come in OSU colors!   Congrats!

Way to go @Yukari !

I would ask that both of you write a nice review in the Equipment section on these clubs.  We need more reviews for clubs.

Seconded. And post some great pictures of your clubs and your smiling faces here in this thread.

Mike can then add them to the first post and congratulate you on your win.

I third the notion and I'm sure both guys will write up some great reviews.

This should be an added requirement for any members of the site partaking in the contest moving forward as well. Though we probably shouldn't make it a "requirement" for obvious reasons as there can't be any takesy-backsies. I mean everyone reading this should just make a mental note and be aware that a review would be a simple way to say "thank you" by contributing to the site and community that allowed them the opportunity to win something.

Congratulations, guys! :beer:


Congrats - I just needed better Open weather (meaning rain/wind) to get my Rory -8 pick, or for Francesco play 10 shots better on Saturday.

Oh well, I'm sure I will enjoy my Bridgestone golf balls after the PGA!

Players play, tough players win!

That was a really tough break for you.

I saw that you had forgotten, and then I noticed that you made an edit where you used the phrase that pays, but you changed your scores of the second and third picks, though you kept Rory at -17.

As I said, a tough break, but they have to run a fair contest.

It really was a remarkable guess on your part, though.

Way to pick 'em, guys.

I never dreamed the scoring would be so low.

Enjoy those great new clubs.

    • Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.
    • Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.
    • Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.
    • The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.
    • I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
