Brandel gets a lot of flack for his views on certain subjects, but a number of years ago (pre-golf channel) he used to write a column for Golf World Magazine or Golf Week Magazine (I had a subscription to both and don't remember which one he was with).

In one particular column he was talking about the amount of product Tour players receive after recently going through his closet and noticing how many pairs of golf shoes he had accumulated.  I don't remember off the top of my head how many it was, but it was something like 40 or 50 pairs of shoes...whatever it was, it was a lot.  He didn't realize he had that many, some of which had never been worn.  He decided to give most of them away, and wrote in his article that if you wore a size 9D (or whatever it was) and wanted a pair of shoes, just send him a note with your mailing address and he would send a pair of FootJoy Classics (I'm 99% sure he covered the cost of shipping them too).

I thought it was a classy move.

    • Day 85 - Played 9. Driver was solid, approach shots were pushed, chipping/pitching was better, putting was rough. 
    • Day 514, March 28, 2024 Quick ten minutes while waiting for the wife to come home for our trip.
    • Day 262: did a stack session. Worked on rehearsal swings during rest breaks. 
    • It's been a little more than a year since I can last remember hitting golf balls and today I just got my second cortisone injection in 11 months. I thought maybe shortly after the first injection I was going to be able to start playing again with therapy but the pain while doing my backswing past halfway just didn't subside like just lifting my hands up in the air did. So today the Orthopedic surgeon put more in the backside of the shoulder than before to address the tendon more. I'm going to try therapy for another 3 months and if I  can't swing the club without pain then I think surgery is going to be my next option.
    • I was just down visiting family in southern California and we played a couple rounds of golf. I hit my ball into the deep rough near some tree's and my cousin's husband offered me his Sim 2 Rescue Hybrid to try out. And I felt the same way, wow! I loved it, it also had a Pure DTX grip on it which I loved. As soon as I got back home, I ended up buying two used Calloway Rogue X hybrids, 3 and 5. So far I've only tested them out at the range, but I love them. They're much more forgiving than irons for me.
