Become a Supporter in 2015!

Becoming a Supporter helps us continue to provide a quality platform and environment for all of us to enjoy. The Supporter Program is ideal for individual golfers who want to get more out of the community, the forums, and our Sponsors and Insiders. Since The Sand Trap is a great place to hang out, show your support for the community and your fellow members.

For $29, a small price to pay, you get these additional features:

  • Browse The Sand Trap .com ad-free if you choose (increases site speed, reduces distractions!)
  • Supporters and Forum Leaders get first (and often the only) consideration to do Member Reviews .
  • Add a custom user title under profile photo.
  • Save 20% on Analyzr - Pro or Student versions.
  • Gain access to - "The Locker Room"
  • Post up to nine (9) Classified ads in our Marketplace each month. Classifieds will be highlighted and you can bump them every 24 hours instead of every 72.

More details are here:

If you join during this Supporter Drive (March 2015), we will extend your Supporter membership by 90 days (or, because we're lazy, 92).

To Become a Supporter:

  1. Send $29 via PayPal to "paypal@thesandtrap.com".
  2. Include your TST username in the note.
  3. I'll PM you with the date of expiration, which you may want to add to your calendar so you're notified when your Supporter status expires.

The Supporter Drive will end Midnight EST March 31.

P.S. Current Supporters can extend their membership 15 months as well.

Thanks for posting Erik.

If you enjoy the site, have gotten some help with your swing or liked our reviews, show your support. Erik listed it above but if you are interested in receiving and reviewing golf clubs, balls, apparel, training aids, the Member Reviews are a sweet bonus.

Just to add to all the above. For 29 bucks, imho, you get way more from this site than it cost's to become a Supporter.

I sent mine in, but I just checked the receipt: the link you provided ends up going to Huddler, not TST. Did I send $29 to the wrong people?

That's the name of the company through which the site software is handled or some such thing (see my user title), but I think you sent it to the wrong place based on the first post.

Yes, unfortunately, that appears to have happened. Huddler has had a built-in subscription thing for a few years, but when the first renewals came up, we discovered that it was broken. It's never been fixed. It auto-renewed but didn't charge, or the opposite perhaps, and that's why we asked members to PayPal us directly at paypal@thesandtrap.com in the first post. I'd file a claim with PayPal. And under your PayPal subscriptions be sure to "cancel" the subscription you may have created. I filed a notice with Huddler, so perhaps they'll make it easy and refund the $29.

We just posted a call for member reviews today for the new PING Glide wedges, for example.

This Supporter Drive ends March 31.

Yes and last year the Member Reviews group was able to review a few sets of PING G30 irons. Also most recently we had calls for Bridgestone and Callaway balls.

When I first joined the site, I became a supporter right away.  I really enjoyed the site and wanted to make sure that it would continue.  If you feel the same way, consider becoming a supporter.

Yup, same here!  (Well, when I first learned of the supporter option after they did a supporter drive that year, and I got my awesome alignment sticks!!)

$29 a year is a steal and well worth it when you consider all of the perks.

Thanks guys!!

Am I suppose to select " I'm sending money to family or friends" or "I'm paying for goods or services"? I don't want to incur unnecessary fees by selecting one, or a legal problem selecting the other.

Please select goods/services. You'll never incur fees sending money. Thanks to those who have done this for the first time and those who renewed!

So....I have three payment methods available to me right now on Paypal: Paypal credit, my credit card (MC), and my savings. I'm waiting to verify checking acct (little problems for some reason). However, after trying all these methods, I keep getting prompted that the recipient does not accept payment by these means. Help?

      Too Old?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      By saevel25 · Posted

      So, Brendan Sorsby, Texas Tech transfer QB, was found guilty of sports betting by the NCAA. He admitted to it. He placed thousands of bets over multiple years while at Indiana and Cincinnati. This included betting on his own teams.  The NCAA rules ban athletes from betting on any sport (college or pro).  A retired visiting judge from Tarrant County, Texas has put an injunction on the NCAA ruling. He is a visiting judge because the first judge was a graduate and big fan of Texas Tech, and he recused himself. The judged ruled the following... "Under Curry's order, Sorsby is permitted to play for Texas Tech's 2026 season on the condition that he continues his treatment for a gambling and anxiety disorder and serves a two-game suspension (missing games against Abilene Christian and Oregon State)."  Don't get me wrong, I don't particularly care for the NCAA. That still doesn't mean that a college can choose when or where to say, "Yea we agree to these rules for all our sports, well except in this case." Here is a breakdown from S&W. The Hidden Weapon in Sorsby’s Injunction: How a Lubbock County Court Order Quietly Neutralized the NCAA’s Most Powerful Enforcement Tool - Law Offices of Snell & Wilmer By Ryan J. Regula On June 8, 2026, Lubbock County District Court Judge Ken Curry issued a temporary injunction in Brendan Sorsby v. National Collegiate Athletic Association, Cause No. DC-2026-CV-0791 (99th Judicial District... The main judgement made sense. Sorsby, I am going to have all this harm done to me if I don't get to play. The Judge, I agree. The penalty for gambling is too harsh, so here are all these things you must do, and I will grant this injunction against the NCAA. Basically, an analogy would be when a person goes into court for a DUI and they agree to all these other things to not end up in jail.  What sucks for the NCAA is the NCAA has appealed to Texas’ Seventh Court of Appeals, based in Amarillo. All four justices that preside over the court are graduates of Texas Tech University School of Law. It would be hilarious if all four of them had to recuse themselves 🤣. For those who like to read legal rulings...

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By StuM · Posted

      The chatter in my brain is when the distance is between clubs since I am pretty weak at shortened backswings, etc. I try to simply decide if being long or short is the better outcome and choose my club based on that and simply not even try for the “real” distance.  For me a full normal swing is what I strive for.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I saw this comment made in a golf article... "Most golfers stand over a 4- or 5-iron still negotiating with themselves. They think about how hard to swing, whether they have the right club, if they have the aim correct and more. It’s a lot to deal with and long irons punish the “half-in” golf swing." I am not sure the "most golfers" is correct regarding the bolded part. I can understand if there is a bunker, water, and/or OB that a lot of golfers would be fixated on that. I am not sure that leads to ending up more times there. Pending your level in golf, the variance is so large in outcomes, it could be just with in the expected outcomes. I can understand if have a big lake on the right side of the hole being one of the most terrifying shots for right-handed amateur golfers.  I am not sure many golfers are standing over the ball talking to themselves, "Ok, maybe I should step back and pull the 4-iron. Am I lined up right? Oh, the wind came up, should I swing harder? What am I going to have for dinner tonight, maybe steak. (Joking, somewhat 😛)" A question is that how much chatter do you get while standing over the ball. Are you questioning the everything about your golf shot?
