  5. Last I looked there was no minimum number of clubs required. If you can play at a level that makes you happy with just a 5 iron, or whatever your favorite club is, have at it. Sounds kind of nice actually.
  6. Most off the rack stuff is made for people of average height, about 69". I am 70" tall, but my reach is 76" and I play standard length. I would suspect you may need longer shafts.
  7. I'm going to guess you haven't been to a clubfitter......
  8. Stance seems very wide.
  9. Check out this video to learn how to grip properly. You should have the grip in your fingers, not in your palm, along the lifeline. Pay particular attention around 1:11
  10. I have one, but you won't see it in my bag.........unless you pull the headcover off of it! I hide it out of shame But golf is expensive enough as it is, and that thing has paid for itself several times over.

    Birdies?

    My first birdie was in my second year of playing and was pure luck. I skulled a 7i something terrible, it skipped across 120 yds of water, slammed into the bank on the far side, popped up and rolled to 4ft. Good thing there are no style points in golf.
  12. I keep 2-3 dozen of whatever I'm playing on hand, but I have about 1600 old beat up range balls that I hit into the field behind my house. I have 250 yards from my house to the woods behind, so I pretty much have my own driving range. Finding them out there is tough, I usually only find about 30% of what I hit out there, so it's a good thing I got them cheap.
  13. I prefer to walk. My "home course" is $16 to walk 18, $36 to ride. Makes the decision pretty easy in my book. I'm 30 and in good shape, but use a pull cart. The course is flat as can be, and no long stretches between holes. I've used an app on my phone called Endomondo to measure how far I walk, and it comes up to 5.5 miles every time. I play solo, usually tee off at 7am and never have to wait on anyone, and I'm usually headed home by 10. Perfect Sunday morning as far as I'm concerned. When I play with my father, we ride since he's oldish (62) and has had several health issues. It's great that we get to play together, but I just can't seem to keep my head in the game when riding. I average 5 strokes worse when riding.
  14. Wait.......An American or European football? How about a jelly bean? I've got 14,387 Hot Wheels all over my house, maybe one of those would be ok?
