Bourbon and Coke

I personally prefer Tour Velvets. But it really depends on what you personally prefer.

Fallout 3 is not canon. It's Baby's First RPG aka Oblivion with Guns. It was fun to play until you quickly become a gamebreaker (I guess if you grew up with World of Warcraft and Oblivion you might struggle to break the game.) They cut down the perks and skills so much, it's left as a shell of the Fallout series. It really is idiot-proof skill selection (protip: you're a gamebreaker by 15 even if you don't choose the must-have perks--too many skill points and not enough useful skills) Not to mention, they killed the archetypal Fallout 1/2 build by nerfing speech to the point it's laughable. Okay, so the story isn't terrible... #### SPOILER #### Except making Amata say, "You're a hero, but you have to leave" isn't an homage, it's a ****ing non-sensical travesty and why do you have to die when you have a Supermutant sidekick that easily could've done the deed for you? ####/SPOILER#### Fallout 3 is a pretty good game, a bad RPG, and an embarrassing "member" of the Fallout family (Brotherhood of Steel I'm looking at you.)

If he hits long irons well, I would imagine it's not a grip issue. More likely, it's a mental issue. Your swing changes with your woods and driver because of some mental inclination you have about them. Unless you post a video, you're going to be best-served by getting a couple lessons.

Does anyone actually pay $375 for the Stadium Course nowadays? I feel like they run a special every day. That's not a terrible deal because the hotel is great, but truthfully you might as well skip Dye's Valley. It's really not worth the money they charge because it's part of Sawgrass. I would rather grab a special at Ponte Vedra and play both courses there (or just double up on the Ocean course), then pay to play a round at the Stadium course. There's also a decent deal at the World Golf Village... you can buy a round at either King and Bear or Slammer and Squire, then go to the other course that day and only pay the cart fee to play. The greens weren't in fantastic shape on K&B; when we were down there, but it was a pleasant course.

1. Florida 2. California 3. New York 4. Carolinas 5. Georgia All of Georgia's good courses are private, but it hosts the first major, as well as the final event of the FedEx Cup, as well as hosting the US Collegiate Championship.

No, but if I were going to be inspired by a pro, it certainly wouldn't be Lefty.

Those are crickets. Pity reply.

We played at Golf Club of Georgia when the greens were a 13. Only one player in our foursome had under 40 putts. There's no point in playing when the greens are like glass, in my opinion. At least, not while trying to score.

I like my Newport 2. Other than that, there's no much input anyone here can give you. You've got to play with it, not us.

Nike Ignite. Bought a box of reloads on sale at Target. That's the last time I'm ever playing a non-premium ball.

Yeah, you are 100% correct about this. If they let that guy back in the league, Mike Vick ought to be back in. Oh wait, I forgot... Ray Lewis wasn't convicted in the Gold Club shooting. Not to mention it happened before the current Player Conduct policy, not to mention it was a different ****ing commissioner . Personally, I don't care about his dogfighting crap. I don't care about punishing him further for the crime he's served jail time for (personally, I think he should've been in jail longer for the tax evasion, but that's the justice department's business.) If he's able to play, and a team is willing to sign him, he ought to be reinstated. However, I think every single goddamned dime he stole from the Atlanta Falcons and the city of Atlanta ought to be repaid in his contract before he sees any of it. There are millions of dollars unrecouped, not just in his salary and bonuses, but in marketing, merchandise, etc. That son of a bitch got to declare bankruptcy and walk away from all of it. **** him. Let him go play for the Raiders (good work, Al Davis, how dumb do you feel after that Heyward-Bay draft now?) Al Davis ought to be writing checks directly to Arthur Blank, all of the merchandising companies and retailers, and the Atlanta Falcons fans.

Protip: Drop on a downslope so it runs down and doesn't plug. Works best if it's the side of the bunker, not the front lip.

More than half of the stuff on eBay is fake.

I'm not familiar with any courses near Dahlonega, but all of the golf worth playing in Atlanta is private (East Lake, AAC, Golf Club of Georgia, etc.) The Georgia National in McDonough is okay, but it's not really worth the trip from Dahlonega. Stick to courses up there; nothing worth the drive in Atlanta. If this is a dedicated golf trip, make the drive down to Callaway Gardens. It's an hour and a half south of Atlanta, but worth the time and money.

I'm not usually a fan of iacas, but he's completely right here: you're the douche in this situation. Your attitude is just all wrong. You're as bad as the guy at the gym who makes fun of anyone who can't bench as much as him. You're missing the point: everyone plays for their own reasons and with their own goals, and you can't make a meaningful evaluation of progress or success when you force your objectives on other people. If someone wants to play golf for the gentlemanly, social aspects of the game, including club membership and appropriate attire for the course, they have just as much right to it as you who only cares about the scorecard. I guess you should be glad you can beat them to completing your objectives, because you obviously can't compete with them with regards to acheiving theirs.

It depends on the model and year. Different models/years were manufactured under contract by different companies.

Yeah, you should've bought the X-22s through the gap wedge. Most people will avoid hitting a full sand wedge, whereas hitting a gap wedge is easier than knocking down a 9i or PW. I hit my gap wedge out of the fairway all the time; I'm happy it feels identical to the rest of my irons. I'd get a Vokey SW and X-22 GW

I broke my own 7 iron last year and called them to get the shaft replaced... they had me send the broken club to them (they paid shipping), replaced the shaft for free, and sent it back at absolutely no cost to me. I guess he made me promise not to break any more of their clubs, but that's hardly a cost.

Not really any point on 17, but yeah, if it was earlier in the round we would have. They didn't really start until the back 9

I'm still happy with my SC.

Is there any USGA rule about "one ball" when switching balls on the green due to damage? If a player damaged his tee ball, could he switch to a ball he can putt better? I assume there is, because if you started with a damaged ball...

We had a similar story with players behind us hitting into us for an entire round despite the fact we were keeping pace. It culminated in one of us turning and sending one of their drives directly into the woods for hitting within a few feet of us.

I played King and Bear at World Golf Village yesterday and the Stadium Course at Sawgrass today. I enjoyed both and definitely could have scored better if I had a chance to play them each again.

This. If there's no money on the line, I'm not willing to risk damaging my clubs.
