@iacas - Yes! THANK YOU SO MUCH! Mack is so excited. I honestly don't think he will be able to go to sleep now. I may not either! ;) I was worried more about the driver than anything else.

Here's a list of what he's hoping for. (He's a righty.)

-----
A SW to go with his Titleist 822 OS wedges (But doesn't have to be the same. He will live. His current irons have steel shafts.)
A 3 wood. (I have no idea on what to get.)
A hybrid. (He has a 3 and 4 iron, but he doesn't seem confident about using them?? He's used to a hybrid.)
Odyssey Putter  (He likes the White Hot Pro 2.0, but he does have a putter already that will work. The Odyssey is a 'want" not a "need".)
Golf shoes (He's got his eye on some Nike ones he tried on today. He's a size 9-9.5 mens. But again, it's a "want". Any shoes will do as long as they aren't "dorky".)
A bag (The store we were at had some generic ones on clearance for $70, so we might get one there.)

I'll tell you what. I have an Acuity carry bag that I won at an outing a couple of years ago. It's brand new, but I'll never use it and have been wondering what to do with it. It's nothing fancy, but will do the job. I think I know what to do with it now.

If you haven't found a bag yet, and if you feel like it, PM me your address, or maybe better yet, the address of a trusted friend or the high school golf coach, and I will ship it to you. The reason I suggested the alternate addresses is no shenanigans! I figure if I can help support your Son's love of the game, I'm happy to do so.

Wow, that would be amazing! He does still need a bag. I'll PM you. Thanks again!

    • Day 203 3-8  Focus on getting wider in backswing and reconnecting arm in downswing. With wider backswing reconnecting arm wasn't happening as well. Made some good progress. Hit foam balls.
    • Day 523 - 2026-03-08 Got some swings in after a Starter Set of lessons with two new-ish golfers. Downswing work almost exclusively.
    • Lets see, Kapalua, and any other course played on Maui, Hualalai, Koolina and the course where the LPGA now plays the Lotte, Poipu, St Andrews, and Ballyliffen. I think that's it, never chased it but sure do enjoy playing Kapalua, Koolina and Hualalai. Will
    • Updated feels Backswing 1. Knees stay at the same depth 2. Shift right 3. Right now it's imagining the hand path going right and up by raising the right arm. I imagine the hands holding the club while it is pointed up and behind me at my right shoulder.  4. Torso (belly) and hips stay facing forward.  Downswing 1. Mostly just straightening in combination with arms down behind me. I know my knees are bent, but it doesn't feel like much. It doesn't feel explosive because I am not going from a deeper squat.  2. Hands to right pocket or right foot. It should feel like my go down as my shoulders stay up. Stay taller. I don't need to use the body to get the club down. 
    • It also counts in my heart! Thank you
