Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2012 To Feature Augusta National
dpg1682 replied to Bo the Golfer's topic in Golf Talk
I like the game so far, im playing the ps3 vesion. graphics on Augusta is amazing! Wish i could play for real.I found it funny how Stevie isnt in the game.and glad to see that Phil Mickelson is recognised in the masters moments in the carrer mode. You get to recreate his amazing shot at the 13 hole of the final round of last years masters. -
I played Hansen Dam in the valley. Its a municipal but hey its less than 5 minutes away from me so i cant complain.

So on a wet and not so sunny day in Southern California, i broke 90 and it feels great!!!!!! . After many close attempts , my improving game prevailed and I shot an 87. With two birdies on two tough par 5's and a record low 31 putts, ( LOW FOR ME ONLY ONE THREE PUTT) and on aerated greens. I am stoked and cant wait to break 80. But i know that is still some time away. Wish me luck

i to have been keeping stats on the course to lower my handicap. Earlier this week i played 18 and i hit all but 1 fairway, which was a surprise to me since i fight a very bad slice and every drive was dead straight.I had only 2 G.I.R. and too many putts. But now i know what to work on. So hopefully the stat keeping helps

i would say George Lopez just because he is a comedian that i think is beyond hilarious. I have no idea what his handicap is besides the kidney

Anyone hit Golfsmith's Snake Eyes SDF balls
dpg1682 replied to JRoberts's topic in Balls, Carts/Bags, Apparel, Gear, Etc.
I found a snake eyes ball on the course and decided to use it. i was surprised at how far it went great distance off the tee. Very durable to had it for about 2 rounds until i lost it . i just might stop by and buy some. great deal i can add them to my shag bag. -
I dont own one but i have tried one out out Dicks sporting goods. I was trying it out off the artifical rough they have alongside the putting area and was surprised at how well it chipped with it. I literally spent 45 minutes withthis club just holeing out chips of all lengths. I can see why people use the club. Hey whatever helps your game.
-
what do you chip with around the green?
dpg1682 replied to ScottL's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
i like to use my PW with a putting stroke.But It really does depend on my lie. I have tried using the SW and LW but i get much better performance with the pw. So why change it up. -
Do you prefer wedges to be light or heavy(D4 + )?
-
i have only one reason. Golf is an actual sport!!!!!!!!!!!! Ping pong is an olympic event and its hardly a sport more of a game.
-
the first time i played i did not know any better so i played from the tips(blue). I then realized i dont have the distance off the tee to attempt it again. i now play from the whites. One of the guys i play with always makes a big deal about me playing from them. Whenever somebody joins us he makes it a point to tell hem that i play from the whites like its a big deal to do so. Some people just dont undersatnd the concept of the differnt tees.

Another ball question..
dpg1682 replied to 2manybogeys's topic in Balls, Carts/Bags, Apparel, Gear, Etc.
I believe the Big Bertha Diablos reduce side spin as well. I have been playing them for a couple of months now and love them. Now i dont always hit it straight(fighting a slice/ problem with alignment) but ball does not slice as much as other balls i have used. -
new golfer needs new gear and lots of advice!!
dpg1682 replied to golfnuub's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
Try callawaygolfpreowned.com i bought my irons from them. They also sell other used popular brands of clubs. They always have some type of promotion going on so good deals are there to be had. -
My buddy and I are hoping to set up a golf trip in late Augest in San Diego or Palm Desert. I have a couple places in mind but would like some input from you guys. So I was wondering if any of you have any ideas of any stay and play courses. Thanks in advance

what are your favorite michael jackson songs?
dpg1682 replied to senorchipotle's topic in The Grill Room
I agree with just about everybody all good songs. I still think that thriller is hands down the best music video ever. i wish i could bust some moves like that. -
Dont know if its been posted before but is worthy of another look

Played again today (monday) and had a fantastic front 9 and by the way i was playing i felt i could break 90 even in the high 80's.I was 10 over on the front my best 9 holes ever. But then i hit the turn and the wheels fell off. And ended up shooting 99!!!!! Need to work on putting. but i know i have it in me to do really well again and soon and stay that way.
-
Yup i finally did it. Actually i almost broke 90 i shot a 93
-
I hear all of you saying legit but how do they afford to have such low prices? Nearly 100 $ off a new driver makes you think knock off. Are things used?
-
So seeing that he nearly beat tiger last year sending him to sudden death and extra holes , do you think he has a shot this year?
-
How is Cascades? its really close by and i have been wondering a bit about the course itself. Not to much info about it online.
-
Im in Pacoima i play Hansen Dam alot. Knollwood is fun but a terrible course to walk very "hilly".Play the par 3 course in Van Nuys often. And i agree Vista Valencia is a great executive course. 17th hole is killer, so far im 5/5 on the hole yet to hit water
-
I agree they go above and beyond to keep they're customers happy. Big upgrade too an FT-IQ for an FTI great deal at no costt who would pass that up!!
-
I was just wondering how often you guys go through a pair of golf shoes. I just wore mine out they are all torn and coming apart at the seams in just under a year. I just bought a pair of addidas , and just wanted to know how long a quality brand of show would last?

I have had some trouble recently leaving putts short. Even my lag puts are short. Any drills you guys have for solving this problem. THANKS!
