... my first thought is holy S**T that thing is going to have to be cleaned with a brush after every shot - the base is so busy with all kinds of crevices & slots, it will get packed with all kinds of dirt and mung.

I just wish hybrids and fairway woods would have a smooth featureless base ... wouldn't look cool enough I guess when everybody is making this kind of club today:

Yeah it is pretty "busy".  I know I get tired of pulling the grass out of the slot of my RocketBallz 3 wood every time I hit a shot off the deck.

But wait, aren't you supposed "try and hit UP on the ball so you don't hit the ground"?

I always heard you hit hybrids like long irons. :scared:

As for woods - I can't hit up or sweep them ... creates a hook for me - hit slightly down on those too to straighten them out.   I guess it all boils down to preference ...

Yep, a car speaker. My hybrid is a Cleveland Launcher with Glide Rails. I'm sure it helps a little, but maybe more so subconsciously.

I put a brush in my bag recently.

Yup, unless you frequent courses where someone washes them after the 18th hole is done. :-P

Yep, a car speaker.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who saw that resemblance. I spent way too much time working on car stereo systems in my car I think.

Meh. A wet towel will get everything important and you can detail it when you get home. If you are in to that sort of thing. And admit it.

Eh, grooves and chunks of mud get cleaned but if you cleaned the mud out of the sole of your club every time, you'd spend half your day cleaning. My home course stays soft.

I apologize for having a spam URL in my signature and will not do it again.

      Are You a Fair Weather or All Weather Golfer?

      By saevel25 ·

      I’ll break this down by weather. Raining, I use to be worse because my swing was very steep and you need to be very accurate. Now that my swing is shallower I can pick it more. Windy, I struggle a bit because I hit the ball higher. I struggle to flight shots. Windy days benefit better ball strikers because it amplifies curve. I rather play in the hot versus cold. I hate golfing with a ton of layers on. I can handle heat pretty well.

      By mcanadiens ·

      Dry-weather golfer is probably the most appropriate for me.  I will tolerate a little bit of light rain, but as soon as soaking occurs I'm out.  Temperature-wise, I'll play in anything from 40 to 95. Significant wind might bump that lower end up 5 or so degrees.

      By DeadMan ·

      I'll play in anything besides lightning. The only weather I haven't really played in is a cold rain, because it's unusual to have cold rain here. It just snows instead. Here are some of the highlights (lowlights?) of what I've played in: 40 degrees, probably 30 mph winds gusting to 50-60 mph. I played fast because no one else was on the course! 32 degrees, on and off snow flurries. 100+ degrees (fortunately, no humidity). My motto currently is if courses are open, I'm playing. I'm sure this will change as my kids get older, and I have more time.

      Are You a Fair Weather or All Weather Golfer?

      By DaveP043 ·

      I voted "warm weather golfer", but I'd expand my acceptable conditions a bit.  If its over about 40 to start, and not raining, I'm OK.  (My wife uses the 50/50 rule, it should be over 50 degrees for over 50% of the round)  If its 60+ and a light rain, I'll play.  I have the gear to play in all conditions, waterproof jackets, pants, hat, rain gloves, winter golf gloves, thermal underwear, all of it, but I've become a bit more selective in my old age.  Also being retired, I CAN be more selective, I have more days available to play.  And of course for competitions or golf trips, I'll play in almost any weather.
