  1. yea. i play adams hybrids, irons and thre wood, with an adams bag. I like to match everything. But I have cleveland, callaway, wilson, nike and odyssey. so I dnt completely match
  2. yup.. me too. I'm reading Rotella's "A Golfers Mind"
  3. A disappointing 83 today... But after that I played another nine w/ my dad and shot a 39(+3), after being four over after the first four holes. Never give up
  4. I'm only 15, but sitting in the lounge at my club, hearing the "S-bomb" is far from rare
  5. Yea I've gone through this before when I was like a 16 handicap. I geuss it's just more frustrating now... Thanks 4 the advice man
  6. I went outside to practice some yesterday afternoon and couldn't hit the ball AT ALL. Now today I went outside to do the same thing, and now I'm shanking, topping, etc. I have tried numerous things with no success. Any tips for the shanks? Thx in advance
  7. well i've broken 80 six times this summer, and only a couple of girls to show for it...
  8. I love everything. Mainly knowing that no matter how good I get, I'll never master the game. I was thinking today, that no matter how good of a shot I hit, it would never be perfect, but you can get the ball in the hole for par with many imperfections. haha, pretty intersting
  9. It looks to me as if you sway foward a little before impact, which can result in a slice, or sometimes a shank(trust me I just got lessons and that's what I was doing wrong)
  10. Shot 40 today w/ my new set of Adams irons. They felt buttery smooth except for a few mishits, which gave nice feedback. Still getting used to them though
  11. My friend and I played 63 holes in a day last summer, and we had to start at 6:30 so we could finish by dark!
  12. It's called Majestic Pines Golf &CC; now, and no the renovations aren't done and won't be completed for a couple of years most likely. But the course is in nice shape
  13. 79(40,39) Hit the ball pretty well until the last two holes, but made putts on my last three holes that were all over 8 feet. But on #15 I missed a birdie putt from 1 foot, yes 1 FOOT! The ball went down in the hole and hit the metal part of the cup and popped out.. That really got to me, b/c I had just stuck it so close with my 52*
  14. I found it pretty funny whenever Rocco layed up on the 18th yesterday, and some idiot yells "Get In The Hole", when Roc's ball was over 100 yards from the hole. haha. But i don't mind people saying that b/c I get a kick out of it. But if I was in that situation as a golfer, I'm sure I would get sick of hearing it.
  15. But Rocco played great on Saturday, and shot an EVEN PAR 71. According to Tiger, EVEN PAR is a good number
  16. I play the Nike Slingshots, and hit them pretty well(they are very forgiving). The trajectory is pretty high and the go pretty far. However, I am looking a new set, as the Slingshots are very bulky looking at address.
  17. Hey everyone, I live on the back nine of a course near the east coast in North Carolina, formerly known as Duplin Country Club. It was recently bought by a pretty wealthy man from Boston, and he is making some changes to the country club and adding on to the course. The 18 hole course is currently in terrific form and I enjoy being able to play it every day. I just thought I would let my fellow NCians know about our course, and that it is a great value IMO, with non-member rates at $30.
  18. I listen to my iPod and seem to play better when I do so. I listened to my iPod today and was only +3 thru 14 holes until I nearly stepped on a big snake that slithered into a pond. So I then decided that maybe I should take out the earphones and become more aware of my surroundings!
  19. Ok, I just placed a bid on EBAY for 225 bucks on a set of Adams a3 hybrid irons 3-PW. I thought it was a great deal. I was just wondering what you guys think of the whole "hybrid irons" concept?
  20. The best sound is the Callaway ft-3 Tour IMO, because it sounds kind of soft to me. But as far as loudest, the Callaway Hyper X... sounds like Bonds hitting 755 with an alluminum bat
  21. everyday of the week
  22. Played from the back tee's at a course my uncle lives on for the past 3 days. Shot 83 the first day, 80 the second day, and bogeyed the last three holes today to shot another 80. Had so many lipouts it was crazy
  23. due, my friend shot a 156 on the front the first time we ever took him out on the course. 156!!! haha, thats rediculous!
  24. I drove a par 4 in a high school match this year, it was a dogleg right, 270 yards, and I faded the ball around the dogleg, it landed on the green and rolled to about 8 feet. There was a three some of other high-schoolers still on the green, and they said it only rolled about 10 yards. haha. pretty cool
  25. 77 yesterday. should have been SO much better... had 5 lipouts. I'm still happy with it though, b/c it lowered my handicap a little bit since I was playing from the back tees.
