I voted for blue ... cuz I like blue.  I like red too, but blue is a bit more favorite.  Red's my favorite too just not as much.  Not as much favorite as blue.  But if we end up with red I'll be like "That's OK cuz Red's my favorite anyway."  But they're both good.  They're both good.

The phrase East Coast Blue just resonated more with me.

I think the captains should get to pick the color. Since forced to vote for one of the other, I recommend the blue for the west coast.

Maybe the captains should just pick the entire outfits. Have fun wearing visors, west coast. :-P

I voted for "West Coast Blue/ East Coast Red" based on the 2012 Presidential election map. The entire west coast of the continental United States voted for Obama while there were a few red states that voted for Romney on the east coast.

Fairway woods: #1 - TM RBZ Tour (14.5°) & TM System 2 Raylor (17°); #2 - TM Burner (15°) & TM V-Steel (18°)
Hybrid: #1 - TM Rocketballz (19°); #2 - Ping G5 (19°)
Irons: #1 - Ping i3+; #2 - Hogan Edge  (both 4-pw, +1" shaft)
Wedges: #1 - Ping i3+ U wedge (52°) & Ping Eye 2+ BeCu (60°); #2 - Ping ISI Sand BeCu (52°) & Cleveland CG11 lob (60°)

Red for east coast, because it reminds me of New England, lobster, Boston and one of their fall colors. blue for west coast because it reminds me of our 330+ days of blue skies, the Dodgers, and it's my favorite color to wear. Blue West, Red East. that's my vote.

For the love of spaghetti, please all of you west coasters vote for blue.  It's my favorite color, and red really doesn't bring my eyes out quite the same way.

I love spaghetti, and I just happened to vote for Blue. I also love noodles too! ;-)

I voted West Coast red because a few of you had mentioned that you like blue :whistle:

Yeah, we can be pretty arbitrary about this, and at least for me it's not like I'm going to be wearing them or anything. . . :-D

You could always take a little blue and mix it with a little red.

Voted west coast blue as ALL California Universities (UCs at least) include blue in their colors....

UCs are all blue and yellow, but the rest don't follow that same convention.  The CSU's are random.  Fresno State, for example, is red and blue, with red being the main color.  Fullerton is Orange and Blue.  USC is crap.

You get the idea. :-P

    • Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out. 
    • Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though. 
    • Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part. 
    • FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.
    • I know Dean Snell designed the original Pro V along with a couple of other brands tour balls.  How exactly does the Snell ball have problems.  Did he change something in the design or is a manufacturing error since he cannot afford the unlimited R&D budgets of the big manufacturers to iron out flaws
