Ha ha dam I should proof read all posts hopefully an admin will fix it for me.

Funny. Before I sigh off may I tell you a golf tale related to holing a shot? After all this is your moment. Thanks. I played the front 9 at my home course just after surgery two years ago in under 40. At the turn I went to the surgeon for the follow up. Because I was playing well, I hurried back and resumed play on hole 10, a par 3. Without warming up I teed up and hit the ball into to storm drain I front of the tee box at the lake. I dropped a second ball from 156 from the tee box and hop and pop it in the hole. What a laugh they got at the clubhouse. :-\

Can your wife tell the difference between your butt and your face? It appears the former was the area of focus. LOL Congrats and cool story!

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

Eagle Springs, I think I've played that course. Is it west of Waukesha/Mukwonago and has another par 3 that the green is sort of a bowl shape?

The other par 3 which is hole #2 is like a volcano. The course is south west of mukwongo in eagle.

That's the one I was thinking of. I used to live in Big Bend just east of Mukwonago. You've probably played Rainbow Springs and Nagawaukee too I'll bet.

I have. Actually Rainbow is closed. The state purchased it and turned it into a wildlife preserve. You can fish there now and hunt in certain areas. I love nags it's just a pain to get a tee time there.

Supposedly some decent fishing there at RS.  Yeah Nags is a pain as far as slow play and getting a tee time.  Great course though.

Congratz! Bask in the glory and see if any OEMs have an award for you.

I emailed callaway and they are going to send me a plaque. Also Bridgestone is sending me a bag tag or something like that. Thanks for the suggestion. I really appreciate it.

Congratulations....... The closest I ever came to one was 6 inches.    A hole in one is on my bucket list.  The other items left are flying in a bi-plane and flying in a glider.   They are much more likely.

    • Awesome, thank you very much. I ended up giving them a call and you are right. Got to try out some different clubs, the first suggestion was the Wilson Staff Launch Pad irons I believe, the hybrid irons. Personally I wasn't liking them all too much, however they were much better than the old '74 MacGregor blades I've been playing. Then I tried a couple others, I forget what the one was but the one I ended up liking the best was the Cobra Aerojet irons. Overall feel and performance was the best for me on these, I also preferred the appearance and sound of these. Bit the bullet.
    • Gooch ended up getting the invite...
    • Live Updates from the range! Open the club face at address, and trust that you’re gonna be able to get the face in a good position at impact. I don’t have to feel like I have to keep the face open throughout the entire downswing. The swing feels much more free-flowing through impact. Difference in ball flight is that previously it would be a low to mid trajectory that starts straight and draw left, or slight pulls. New ball flight are high push draws.  It’s kind of stupid. I feel like it should slice off the planet. I look up and it’s maybe a slight push. 🤣 Some distant wedge feels. More weight on front foot. Keep weight on front foot.  Pivot around left knee. Solid contact all the time.

    • Day 2:  I hit a bucket of balls this morning.  Not gonna lie, almost didn’t go since it was my first time going alone and it was a little intimidating.  I mostly hit with my driver (the last bit of balls was with my 7 iron).  The sun was in my face but I think the ones that had good contact with went the furthest yet (maybe 150 yards then a good roll?).  Once I switched to my 7, the first half of my balls were crap.  I’ve always hit my irons before my driver when practicing and done fine - does this make any difference or is it just because I’m so green?
