  1. I really like hitting a 3 wood off the tee. I have G20 irons, but want to get a new 3 wood. I've read that the X Hot is the best for most amateur golfers. Any suggestions?
  2. No effect on the Economics? He's the first ever billion dollar athlete. I'm sure Nike would concur, along with all the TV Networks. Wonder if he'd change his mind if Tiger was hitting a TaylorMade driver.
  3. To start hitting my driver this year. Have been hitting my Ping Hybrid off the tee because I feel confident with it, and I like the shortness of the shaft. Feels like an iron to me.
  4. I'm proud to say that I have went from a 26 hcp to 17.6 hcp in the past 3 mths. I used to play all the time years ago. Then life took over. Didn't play for 12 years. Just started back last Fall and it was like starting all over again. Bought some PING G20 irons and have been playing about 1 or 2 times a week. Heading to Panama City this week for golf and relaxation.
  5. This past Saturday I had a good drive that left me 148 to the center. I hit my 8 iron solid and high. Stuck it for a tap in for Bird. Word!
  6. I hit my PING G20 Pitching wedge 125 - 130 yards. I hit my 56* Sand wedge 85 - 90 yards. I need something for those 90 - 110 shots. Any suggestions?
  7. Since I first started playing golf and taking lessons I always over think my swing while at address. A friend that I play with is a solid 1 to 3 hcp, and a couple months ago he told me, " you know how to hit the ball, quit thinking about it, and just hit it." He was right. Since then I've been hitting the ball much better and more consistent. I do agree with the original post. I played quarterback my whole life, and once you have the skill, the body reacts without thinking. But I do admit, the one thing that I've learned playing golf is that everyone has there own opinions. It's definitely the hardest sport I've ever played, but I LOVE it!!!!!!
  8. Heading down to Destin or Panama City in a few weeks with my Wife and Son for Fall Break. Any suggestions on golf courses that are not extremely hard to play?
  9. It's soon to be Fall in beautiful East Tennessee. The leaves in the Smokey Mountains will turn that brilliant oarnge color, and golf is at it's best. Usually can play into November and start back end of February or March. After this long hot Summer, I'm looking forward to Fall this year. Go Vols....
  10. I overheard a guy at our local municipal course complaining about the group in front of them holding them up for 9 holes. He told the cart attendant to tell the manager, and said " I pay his GD salary as a tax payer, he'd better fix it." I thought, what a total D*%k head. His group went before me on the next 9, and he was a horrible golfer. He'd hit 2 to 3 shots off of every tee box. Take 5 practice swings before every shot. Clean up your own yard before you complain about someone elses.
  11. SEX!!!!! Was on a golf trip in North Carolina and we noticed a golf cart up in the woods. I started up to it and realized what was going on. The girl was on top of her man going to town. They didn't seem to care, he waved at us. We told him to "get in the hole" and off we went. Was probably the most memorable moment of the trip.
  12. I've had the same clubs for 18 years, and just got fitted for G20's about a month ago. It's the best thing that has happened to my golf game. Every iron is a club longer than my old ones. I also got the 4 hybrid. I use it on the Tee and in the Fairway. It's my favorite club. 20 years ago I played 5 days a week and got pretty good, then marriage, real job, and before I knew it 12 years passed without playing golf. I just started back last fall and it was like starting all over again. Since I've had my new clubs, got my first ever hole in one, and shot an 87 last Sunday. Even your mishits will go pretty far with the G20's. Well worth the money....
  13. This weekend our group from Knoxville, TN will be playing a 3 day tournament at Rarity Pointe and Rarity Bay in Lenoir City, TN and Egwani Farms in Maryville, TN. Both are beautiful courses. Also like playing Dead Horse Lake in Knoxville. http://egwanifarmsgolf.com/ http://www.raritygolf.com/ View of Dead Horse from the 19th.
  14. I just bought PING G20 Irons with a 4 Hybrid and I love it. I use it on the Tee and in the fairway. It's my new favorite club.
