What the heck happened to Michigan? Appalachian State? As a Buckeye fan, part of me loved it, but what an embarrasment for the Big Ten.

This thread s/b called best movie other than Caddyshack. Other than Caddyshack, Happy Gilmore for the Bob Barker fight alone. Also, since that movie came out I can not stand over a downhill put without thinking "Tap Tap Tappy." oh yeah, ben stiller's cameo, offering Happy's mom "a nice warm glass of SHUT THE HELL UP!"

I got paired with a guy that would consistently put his foot to shield the ball while marking it on the green. His ball would be near his heal, and he would place the marker close to his toe, gaining at least six inches every time he marked his ball. It was so obvious, but I did not bother to say anything. He even re-marked his ball on one green, getting him over a foot closer to the hole.

My father-in-law swears by the David Peltz books, but I have not gotten around to picking one up. Has anyone else read Daivd Peltz?

I have not been hitting my driver well this summer. On my birthday a couple of weeks ago, I tee'd up on a 455 yard par 5 and hit my 3-wood as well as I can hit it. From about 200 yards out I hit a blind approach with my for 4 iron, just hoping to be around the green. I found the ball on the green two feet past the hole. A tap in for eagle on my birthday! Playing every other week and shooting in the low 90's, this was my best golf moment.

Sometimes I have a bad hole and the wheels just fall off. Not so much because I get angry, I just overthink what I am doing wrong, and make it worse. Usually one good shot gets me back on track.

I often end up taking an extra club or two for my second shot and end up walking most of the hole anyway. For this reason, I like to be the passenger.

3 wedges. PW, SW, and I love my 60 trouble wedge.

My short game has been great this summer, but I have been awful off the tee. My goal this fall is to consistently strike the ball well off the tee.

It was not my shot, but I watched by father-in-law stroke a hole-in-one. He had just finished explaining to me why he uses his 7-iron on a 118-yard par 3 with an elevated green, then proceeded to knock it in the cup!

I have an old set of Wilson Staff Firesticks. I am in the market for new clubs. This is probably the right time to buy...

I am a systems analyst. I am new to the board. I got caught up in work the last few years and haven't played much golf. Just recently caught the golfing "bug" again.
