  1. The Grom seems good but I've heard Ogio has realsed a new bag for 08 with some great features. I was wondering does the Grom have the cool rain hood where it splits at the top for easy acess to clubs?
  2. Hi I was wondering how many people have any of those carry bags? I'm currently looking at a new one as the legs on my current one are having difficulty in popping out. All of these bags seem great to me, price is really a factor as they are all in my price range. If anyone who has any of them could share their views it would be great! Thanks.
  3. Could of quite possibly been today, payed $40 to play at this course that my mate had been talking up for a while so we went and played (with buggies) the course was terrible, greens were like putting on dry mud, tee off areas were just covered in sand (hitting an iron was almost like hitting out of a bunker) and then after the 8th hole it starts to poor rain, so our buggies are sliding around everywhere (kinda fun though) soaking wet and windy. Wasn't nice and a big waste of $40.
  4. I'm 15 as well and I use the driver. I don't like it really, I'm about to switch to the superquad or the burner.
  5. you would want graphite shafts for your woods and hybrids, just check your swing speed to see if you need regular of stiff flex
  6. Oh okay so I need him to do a Charlie Hoffman and throw is putter in the lake and then swim in after it to get it. Damn
  7. So I was just watching him play on T.V and it looks like he is using an odyssey XG9 is this correct? I really like it
  8. No have to use the same ball that you hit your aprocah shot with.
  9. I beleive that Adam Scott is overrated, he has no right to be at number 3 in the world (or where ever he is now). Sure he has a great swing but he has never won any big tournaments and when ever he has a chance in one he chokes.
  10. yeah I'm 9 and I can usualy hit it about 350-370 the odd 400 if I'm striking them alright. lol Na I'm 15 I ususaly max out at around 220 Metres (can't be bothered converting to yards.)
  11. While we're kinda on this subject I've got to ask, can you only get one shot on a par 3 no matter what of the handicap? I've been told that buth others seem to disagree.

    John Daly?

    he's gone
  13. Yeah okay then, so I'm looking at a Vokey 60.08 Spin milled, although I heard that Titleist is bringing out 62* and 64* later this year, should I wait for them?
  14. I can't stand any Top-Flite balls I find them to just be total rocks, also the e5's and e6's. I do like the bridgestone B330's alot, you can pick them up cheap as well second hand, but they are still brand new condtion, I never buy new balls now.
  15. I'm having a problem at the moment with basically all of my irons, I keep pulling them, they are not drawing, they are just blocks to the left, it is really getting to me, I know my clubs have a bit of offset in them but I'm going to blame them.
  16. I'm looking at either a 60* or a 62* wedge and I was wondering what bounce would be best for me, the rough at my home cause isn't really thick, it is quite easy to get out of, and I want to be able to play flop shots well and maybe even a bit of bunker play with it. Thanks
  17. Racs OSC would be great for a high handicapper like you, you can usualy pick up a good quality set off ebay pretty cheap.
  18. lostgolfballs.com is really good if you are from the USA, very cheap.

    Golf Mentality?

    A thing that I find helps, is to put something that makes you laugh every time you see it, I like to put a funny picture in my bag or something.
  20. Me and my mate shot 45 points in a 4BBB Stableford today, we had 8 three pointers in a row comming down the back nine, including a chip in from me to keep the stretch going after my partner jokingly said "ahh just chip it in, make it alot easier."
  21. For a flop shot you have to swing across your feet, if you swing at your target you will more than likley knife it, or you will hit it alright but go way right.
  22. Where at the barrier reef?, it is a huge area that spands all the way up the east coast, but the best reef is at Cairns (where I live), if that is the case there is a course called Paradise Palms (Number 30 in top 100) that is in the Cairns area.
  23. yeah I beleive that if your swing speed is to fast for the shaft it will create a draw, I was playing with a bloke last week who forgot his clubs (he normaly uses XStiff) so he borrowed the stock clubs from the pro shop that were reg felx, he was hitting huge draws.
  24. 23 11 on the front and 12 on the back, mind you they were extreamly easy greens, and I was chipping VERY well, most puts were just tap in's.
  25. Hi, I currently have a TM r Draw 13.5 degree driver as I got it when I was first starting out, I am now skying the ball consistently. I am looking at some new drivers such as the TM Superquad (10.5*) Nike SQ2 (10.5*) or the TM Burner (10.5*) I was just wondering what some of your opinions are on these clubs or other potential good drivers would be.
