just called now and got a even better time of 9:08 for a twosome on Thursday.

Most of those guys met the wife in college as was stated earlier and have been together for a long time.Most are blonde because golf is played in nice weather places where blondes are rampant.

Usually play into Dec. then go to Florida for week in January and lots of heated outdoor range time.

They do rent 1/2 way decent pull carts at the driving range if you so desire.

My S/W is 80 yards max.The harder I try to hit it the higher it goes and so it goes shorter.

I carry my own bag but I am told you go to the pro shop and they supply the caddie though I do not know how much.

damn Swisher busts out and Godzilla hits one too.I will be buying Lotto tickets.

probably is a fake but I read where Mickelsons FT-9 has a hosel so do not go by that.

call Sunday at 7 and hope for the best.If you do not get what you want do not settle and try all week till you get something you like.

I think you might see Matsui in right feild for at least one game.Against Hammells they will go back to Swisher for one more try and if he doesnt bust out than you see Godzilla.

Got moved up to 9:15 and it was a really nice day to play.The course is in great shape greens are fast but are holding so the only complaint was the bunkers were not in good shape.We have had lots of rain so they are hard and or had standing water in them.Shot 89 and felt like I played ok.have a 10:08 for next Thursday and that may be my last round on the Black as I realized it is getting to be to long a hike for this old man.

Let me see Mickelson went to the FT-9 and he hits it 300 plus so you can hit another driver 320-330 but hte FT-9 is to hard to Hit?I have a FT-9 tour 9.5 and love it but I am a old man who only hits it 250 or so.By the way What tour do you play on?

It is Friday morning and I have a single in about 2 hours so I will report back.The Black will close on 11/15.The rest will follow in Dec.

I have never owned a Sun Mountain cart bag.The Stand bags they make are very good except they seem to not hold all the junk I carry in my bag.They seem hell bent on making the lightest bag out there which I quess is a good thing but like I said I carry most of my basement in my bag.

Callaway has the best customer service department of any of the OEMs.That is why I use only Cally stuff.I have had problems with several bag companies over the years and Callaway has ALLWAYS stood behind what they sell.OGIO and Taylormade are not very high on customer service Titliest and Wilson have been fine over the years.I have been using Cally everything for the last 5 years because of this.Been playing for 30 years and have moved through 5 or 6 brands of clubs and bags but have settled on Callaway.

Not one of the ones your looking at but my cart bag i a callaway organizer that is the best cart bag in my humble opinion on the market.In fact Santa just ordered me a new Cally FT stand/carry bag.

My 2 favorites are Steele canyon and Red hawk in Temecula.

I use the SBK large size and never had a problem.

Mickelson used to play a 0 bounce lob wedge 60 degree made by Yonex called the PM model.It is still the only 0 degree lefty lob that I know of.Cleveland had a 3 degree 588 but I do not think they make it anymore.If you remember years ago Phill had a commerical that he hit a ball off the gym floor and into the net on a baketball court and that was for Yonex PM wedges.I can hit mine full bore about 40 yards out and 30 yards up.

Its funny but as I am getting older {58} now I hit a draw/hook.In my younger days I hit the most georgous power fades you ever saw.Now for me to hit a fade I allmost have to reinvent my swing.

I don't know about anyone else's ace but I WAS aiming at the hole when I got mine.It did not hit off a tree or bounce sideways it went where I aimed it.I do not consider that luck I consider that as a perfect shot.

I got one but how about we all tell what club we used and see which has the most?I wonder if the tour has a record of which club has recorded the most aces?For pros I would think like a 8 or 9 iron.As for me it was a 200 yerd 4 iron.

When the Mrs and I go to Myrtle we play 36 every day.We bring 2 pairs of shoes with us and switch each day.Be sure to bring cedar shoe trees and use them when not using the shoes.Bottled water{Poland Spring is our favorite}stuffed in your bag is the ticket.Dry light shirts and NO VISORS HATS ONLY.

Well let me restate my last post.You do get wet in Myrtle and we got good and wet.Only played 36 3 days out of the week due to rain but played all the morning rounds relativly dry.New greens at Rivers Edge were nice and Tru Blue was in great shape as was caledonia.barefoot fazio and Dye were kind of beat up green wise.Tigers eye was also a little beat up.I would have figured this was the time of the year the courses should have been in good shape but several were not.But it was still myrtle and we had a good if not wet time.
