wow. that was epic.

I feel the exact same way. Vista has been great for me.. but I could be tempted away by a Mac if they would come down in price.

This is a great list to start looking at. I consider myself a beginner and I am using the TaylorMade R7's which I absolutely love. I would personally recommend them or the Callaway Big Berthas (for a little more forgiveness). Good luck in your search.

well i love my Ogio Grom which i've had for about 6 months, but the previous post makes me a little leery about its future.. lol. it has tons of little features which just plain work.

yeah, i got suckered last year on a 9 degree Ping G5 on a Blow-Out sidewalk sale that Edwin Watts had last year. I didn't have a driver and the salesman kinda shot me a line of crap and suckered me into buying the 9 degree as he didn't have exactly what i was looking for.. it went something like.. "Strong guy like you.. you'll be hitting the 9 degree with no problem.. " and i fell for it.. the price was really low though.. haha. anyway, once i start making some progress, i will definitely be looking to change to a 12 or 13 degree. i need more height.. and i swing slow.. lol.

i second.. or third that statement. Taylormade TP Blacks (never tried the red yet) are pretty dang nice.

i did the same thing.. absolutely love them. (but fear ebay.. LOTS of scams these days). the r7's hit Straight and Long (well.. when you hit them correctly..haha) . Me likey.

that guy is strange. it was hilarious when he couldn't watch his "good friends" make key shots.. Gees and his wedge swing kinda scares me. i sure hope Josh and Heroshi make it to the end.

I recently bought a Mizuno MP T series (new for 07) 58-10 and it is Outstanding. Mizuno makes some Really quality stuff. Give them at least a look.

yeah, he doesn't really get it yet. he's 25 and thinks he's 17. funny really. anyway, he's a good guy though. he knew i was really getting into golf and he thought it was perfect.. so that's cool. it was the thought that counted.. lol.

yeah i've been using the Top Flite D2's (feel) as well.. they're not bad at all. However, a friend just got me 30 recycled Pro V1x's and to me they feel better and they seem to just 'work' better for me. and at 30 for $15, that's what i'll be using for a while..

my bestman bought me this for my wedding gift (wife already slightly dislikes him.. haha) http://www.clubchamp.com/9516.htm It's by Club Champ and is pretty cheap ($30). I thought it would be junk but it Actually returns the ball right back to you every time so you can just work on your swing. It has really taught be how to make a consistent stroke (for short putts anyway). Although that one G-Funk found looks Awesome!!

i use the 45 PW and 55 SW from my R7 set. I recently added a Mizuno MPT 58 LW to help with getting the ball to stop a little better on the green (my SW would just keep rolling.. and rolling.. ). I like my current set-up but I'm sure I will add a 50 GW in the future once I feel the need for it.

a ha ha haa.. i tried to pull for Losman (i'm from Louisiana and he went to Tulane), but he hasn't done much.. ever really. good luck with Rob. Oh, and back to the original thread: greatest offense ever - 07 New England Patriots. The super bowl this year will set big records.. for points. (think dallas & new england.. whoa). I thought my Saints would FINALLY be there this year but once again i'm left with

yeah, i had originally wrote "they would dominate the NFL ." then i chuckled aloud and changed it to NFC..

haha.. i'd say Drew Brees is having a rough year.. but at least he has proven he CAN play (just not This year).. Reexy on the other hand.. geees.. when are the Bears gonna get a new QB? They would dominate the NFC.

that's awesome to hear. I am new to Golf and just bought some Taylormade R7's and I really like them but I feared growing out of them when i got them. I'm hoping I can just change the grips and keep them til I get to my goal of a 10-12 handicap one day. to the OP: i hear the big berthas are like others say, "SUPER game improvement." But, I can't exactly see where that is a bad thing.. ..hitting straight is better to me than all that draw/fade business anyday.. haha..

yeah i agree. a 60 even seems a bit much to me. I have a 55 SW which i love but it just rolls a little too much on the green so I recently bought a 58 and it does exactly what i was hoping- a little more height, less distance, and less roll on the green.

yeah, i've heard a lot of good things about the TaylorMade Red and Black. Once I get a little more consistent stroke they are first ones i plan to try.

in the U.S. we call that a schlo... eh nevermind.. ..seems like quite a predicament..

i play tennis 1-2 times a week. it's my good sport.. haha.. it relieves me from my days when my golf isn't going so good. I also run with my wife (she loves to run) and i ride road bikes.. and i'm always available for a nice game of basketball.

look for this one if you can.. it is a flat net by Club Champ. http://www.clubchamp.com/9626.htm i received it as a gift and i am quite pleased. i think it runs for about $20-30 and seems Very sturdy. anyway, it is already helping me groove my swing as i now get to hit everyday.

i "feel" the same way (sorry for the pun) about these balls. They are pretty much great everywhere. Price is an absolute steal.. and their tv commercials make me laugh.

i don't think there is any advantage of matching clubs unless you just want to Look like a pro or something.. I mean the only thing that might help is to have the same 3 wood and 5 wood.. (but a lot of people don't even carry 5 woods anymore). Hybrids, irons, drivers, and woods all hit differently anyway sooo having the same brand wouldn't really help any. Especially just starting out (higher handicaps like you and I).. I just picked up the best stuff I could that was on close-out so I could get playing as soon as possible. I don't really care that I use 3-4 different brands.. for me i just want the best equipment at the best price so I can get out there and play.
