I don't really need anything. I'll get balls and tees in my stocking, which is nice.

The RX is such a nice ball, but they cost a mint & NEVER ever eveeerrrrrr go on sale.    Great Christmas gift though ...

As for golf, all I want for Christmas is a consistent golf swing.  This year has been a roller coaster ride with my swing.  Ugh!

But seriously, I usually don't care much for presents.  IMHO, I'm a simple man.  I am happy with what I have.

I'm adding the Snell Golf Balls to my list to see what all the hubbub is about.

I'll add those to my list. I have played them for the last year and half and they are excellent.

I knew what I wanted for Christmas. These came in yesterday. I took them directly to the driving range. What a difference modern equipment makes! My old set was Dynacraft forged cavity backs that were about 20 years old.

Nothing I'm expecting to get, but I could use some things:

New cart bag

Good pushcart

Gap Wedge

The only thing golf-related was this - the Live View Golf camera.

Check them out HERE.  Pretty slick technology that I know I will personally get a lot of usage out of on the practice range.

I've looked at this ^^^^^ but can't convince myself that I can't do the same thing with my iPhone and iPod.  And I much rather look at the videos and add lines on my laptop, not on a phone or tablet.

As far as my Golf Christmas list, this is probably the first year in many years that I really don't need anything, but if the family asks and don't have any other ideas I am sure I can find something.

Oh heck. I just signed my son and I up for golf lessons so that's about it. We're enjoying improving our games together.

Here's hoping all of you have a great Christmas...

Custom fit RBZ irons. Taylormade RBZ driver. Some crappy old high-bounce Macgregor wedge and an even older Mizuno 5 wood. Haven't settled on a ball yet - still looking. Decades of football, weightlifting and boxing came together to create the world's worst golfer. I'm slowly correcting that now.

The golf bag that came with my set was not the greatest, and I am tired of fighting with it. Have had my eye on a few cart bags for quite some time.  The Sun Mountain one was on clearance at Dick's for $159 and we got a $20 coupon applied to it. So I know what my Christmas gift is this year. That's all I want/wanted. It's all about the kiddos, would rather spoil them.

    • I honestly believe if they play longer tees by 300-400 yards, closer to or over 7,000 yards, more rough, tougher greens, women's golf will become much more gripping.  BTW, if it weren't for Scottie killing it right now, men's golf isn't exactly compelling.
    • Day 542, April 26, 2024 A lesson no-show, no-called (he had the wrong time even though the last text was confirming the time… 😛), so I used 45 minutes or so of that time to get some good work in.
    • Yeah, that. It stands out… because it's so rare. And interest in Caitlin Clark will likely result in a very small bump to the WNBA or something… and then it will go back down to very low viewership numbers. Like it's always had. A small portion, yep. It doesn't help that she lost, either. Girls often don't even want to watch women playing sports. My daughter golfs… I watch more LPGA Tour golf than she does, and it's not even close. I watch more LPGA Tour golf than PGA Tour golf, even. She watches very little of either. It's just the way it is. Yes, it's a bit of a vicious cycle, but… how do you break it? If you invest a ton of money into broadcasting an LPGA Tour event, the same coverage you'd spend on a men's event… you'll lose a ton of money. It'd take decades to build up the interest. Even with interest in the PGA Tour declining.
    • Oh yea, now I remember reading about you on TMZ!
