With American politics we're always left to choose between a turd sandwich and a giant douche, and thanks to the electoral college our choice literally does not matter or have any bearing on the presidency. Anyone who thinks elections are anything more than a company buying a president, you're clueless. What ever happened to the poll test? You should have to identify in writing 10 points that your selected candidate supports. If you fail that test, your vote does not count. I know many presidents that would never have been elected if we'd enact this very simple preventative measure for the spreading of ignorance.

Form often follows function, though. I'm sure there's a reason behind the shape, because I don't see how anyone would shape it that way based purely on aesthetics. My MP H4s are pretty ugly, but man do I love those long irons.
-
I wouldn't say you're over thinking it. I was going to go with a mixed set of forgiving long irons and blade-like scoring irons, then I found the MP H4 set which was just what I wanted.

My best round ever was a 55.....on a tiny par 3 course, shot +1. :) On a 70-72 course, my best is a 74 on a 70. Only one other time breaking 80 (78 on a 71) but I hope to do this more often in the future!

One big reason is he is a radical Islamic sympathizer. Of course he'd say different, but anyone who blames the host of the draw Muhammad contest does not understand the importance of not backing down in the face of danger when you are exercising your right to free speech. If illegal immigrants tried to kill Trump would we blame Trump? He sure would if he were us.

They look kind of bulbous. Even chunkier looking than the MP H4/H5. Wouldn't mind hitting them, but not the prettiest thing Mizuno has ever made.
-
Can't go wrong with Mizuno irons if these will fit your game. The 54 looks better IMO.

Only carry one hybrid, a 19*, then the rest are irons from 4-PW.

Can your wife tell the difference between your butt and your face? It appears the former was the area of focus. LOL Congrats and cool story!

Do a quick Google search for trickle down economics and let me know how sour the foot tastes of a man with no rationale. I suppose you aren't aware that human resources employees aren't paid very much? So yes, you have been given a job by a "poor" person. Tell me again how hard high-school was for you. What'd you get in your SAT, BBQ sauce?

Who cares? The man only wants attention. I mean just look at that toupee. [quote name="WageEarner" url="/t/83077/should-golf-dump-donald-trump/50_50#post_1166371"]I'm certainly not wealthy, but I do understand that taking money away from the rich means that there will be less jobs and less money for the needy poor.[/quote] You don't know much about economics...

Nope, used to buy them off lost golf balls, started buying them new at Golf Galaxy. Could be I'm hitting them wrong, don't know, but how could any incorrect hit impart as much energy as a tour swing? Doesn't seem logical, but I'll leave that to the 9.7HI experts. ;) But I do know that the cover ends up coming in spots off after a hole or two and the cracks appear after the next hole or two. If it even touches a cart path forget about it, instant trash ball. Don't know how this experience shocks anyone, most people at my home course have the same experience and now play E6s, which is what made me consider them. It's okay, though, I'm not one to get easily offended on the Internet because I know lots of guys come to a forum so they can be the one in the know and not just have to say "yes sir" to their boss all day. I feel for him, I used to have a boss too! LOL

My brother used to have a starter set of Nicklaus clubs. I liked then quite well for cheaper clubs.

Callaway Mack Daddy PM Grind Wedge

Been thinking of adding a 60* to my bag. Let us know! -
Cheap balls feel like crap and don't spin enough on half swing wedge shots for me. Premium balls crack and wear out too quickly because of the soft cover. For me it's a constant balance of those two factors, trying to find one that comfortably fits in the middle. I like Pro V1s but they're dead after a couple holes. I've had good experiences with some cheaper balls as well, and on the days I don't want to spend $4/ball I pick up Callaway Hex Warbirds. Great budget balls. Planning on trying a dozen E6s, will let you know how I like them.

Well refrets occur every 5 years or so for an avid player. The best sign would be the lacquer used in the case of Fender, but I digress as this is getting off topic. :)

North Carolina seems to be pretty golf oriented. Waiting to see where we fall into place.

Golfer shoots 57 with 3 aces, 2 of which were on par-4's
danL replied to David in FL's topic in Golf Talk
That does seem odd. After the first ace on a par 4 it seems like the whole clubhouse would come out to watch the rest of his round. -
I'm a member of the Les Paul and Fender forums, I never thought I'd hear about this "relic"ing nonsense outside of them! LOL Seriously, the guys that buy those guitars are the hedge fund salesmen hanging them over their desk and showing their buddies they're vast knowledge of 2 chord melodies. Real guitarists use, they don't abuse. I imagine the same is true for golfers.

It's a tournament, so he had witnesses, right? Ever seen the guy that wins another $500k from a scratch off while the news is doing a story on him for winning $250k the week before? Crazy, unbelievable things happen everyday. -
Haven't been able to play in several weeks because that south eastern heat and humidity just doesn't want to let up. If it's 89 or below I'll play, but haven't had a day below 95 in over a week. Come on fall!

Yes I get that they may be abused by the minority of users, but how does that excuse the extra charge? When I rent a car on vacation, they don't charge me an extra $20 for every head I have in that car. That would be nonsense. If I rent one car, I pay for one car. That would be like some guy coming in behind me at the car rental place and the guy behind the counter saying, "oh you're both driving to Ft Lauderdale so you're actually going to have to ride in the same car but both pay the full price of a rental even though you're being forced to share one." I'd tell him to kiss it and that I'm walking away, getting charged half of the price, or getting my own. Same way I handle club house jerks that are trying to steal from me to make up for their poor business management. Unacceptable, and I'll be the first to tell them.
