Good to know. Good question.

Pulled the trigger on the putter I've wanted!! Thanks Nailed It Golf!! Grabbed today's Deal of the Day - Odyssey White Hot Tour #9 Putter . Was bidding on a couple on ebay today but today's deal on Nailed It is better. I love the look and feel of this putter. Can't wait to use it. Suhweeeeeeeeeeet!!!

Hi. Welcome. I just joined here last week. Haven't seen any other sites that are too active. I'm with you and getting back into the game after 4 years away. Got the bug something fierce. But alas, I'm in Nebraska and will continue to practice my putting and pitching (foam balls) around the house till Spring. You mentioned you'll need to buy a putter. I've got some nice putters I'll be selling. Have bought quite a few off ebay and craigslist this winter towards deciding which few to keep. Just looking to get my money back on them (break even). Let me know if you're interested in looking at my list. You'll get a better deal than retail. I've put a great bag and used/new mixed club set together via ebay and other online sites since November. Would post my equipment in my Signature but the site still won't let me after 16 posts and more than 7 days on here. Not sure what's going on with that. Anyways, welcome to the Sandtrap! Tom

Thanks, SeaWolf. Much appreciated. I tried to relocate our family down to MB in 2003. That didn't work out. Long story........

Just joined this site so adding my favorite courses. Great thread! Favorites. Played each once. 1. TPC Sawgrass / birdied 17...golf highlight of my life thus far (hacked a bit the rest of that day) 2. Kiawah Island - Ocean Course / TOUGH! 3. Heritage Club - Pawley's/ loved the greens 4. Caledonia - Pawley's 5. World Tour in Myrtle 6. Legends - Parkland 7. The Dunes Golf and Beach Club

I'll take you up on the offer to share the company you got that package from, please. I'm planning a fall trip with a friend. Would it be more expensive in the fall (Sept or Oct) than the spring in MB? Just curious. Thanks for sharing and have a great trip in April.

Stopped playing after the 2006 season due to $$ redirection (kids get more expensive as they get older-this just in) and due to my on course temperment. Got down to a 4 HC and got to the point where I couldn't accept blowing up on a hole...expecting perfection basically. Hard to explain. It just got more frustrating than fun so it was time for a break. Had no idea it would turn into a 4 year break.

Tiger...and I rooted against him way before November 2009. Not crazy about Poulter, either.

Thanks for the welcome. Regarding the putters I currently have in hand, here they are: YES! Sophia YES! Madison Odyssey White Steel Tri Ball SRT Odyssey White Hot Tour #7H (Selling this one) Odyssey DF550 - from years ago MacGregor V-Foil MOI M6.4K - from years ago On the way...freshly purchased via ebay: Heavy Putter L3 Mid Black Mallet Nike IC 20-20A Trying them out to see which to keep and which to sell. Not much else you can do in Nebraska winter! As of this moment, my favorites are the White Steel Tri Ball (the visual on that is EXCELLENT and it's VERY easy to pendulum dead straight) and the YES! Sophia due to mainly the look and feel. Beautiful stick. Can't wait to get outta the living and dining room and putt outside!

wise move...

I had the exact same problem....when I missed, it was with my driver and it was a hook / duck hook left. I kept trying different things (open stance, turning right hand to left for less strong grip, moving ball forward, backward) but nothing worked. UNTIL someone showed me that I needed to turn my LEFT hand to the left to produce a less strong grip. Worked like a charm. Give it a try? Of course, feels weird at first but then the lighter grip settles in nice with no duck hooks.

I seem to like the double insert White Steel putters now. Grabbed a 3 Ball SRT one off ebay and LOVE that thing. So much that I'm going to turn around and sell the brand new White Hot Tour 7H I bought in December off ebay. I also have a YES Sophia and YES Madison and really like both of them as well. The one of the 4 which feels too different to me is the White Hot Tour insert. To each his own I suppose.

Besides the basics to actually play the game, my top 5 are: Sunscreen Golf gloves Medical tape Towel Permanent marker

I'll suggest NOT putting any money into the site, after my experience. It's a bidding site where you MAY get a ridiculous deal on golf items, household items, retail store gift cards, all kinds of stuff. But to me, it's kinda like gambling. You MAY hit one of these great deals for a dirt cheap cost, but how much money did you put into the site before you got that deal...and when you add it up, are you really coming out ahead? Anyway, my opinion on a totally random topic.
