I'm considering putting my 2i back and taking out my 5w...

Please tell me you have this on tape.

I entered in my club championship just so I get some tee times next weekend. top 1/3rd wins something so I may get lucky.

My Three Favorites from the Bridgstone. 1. Adam Scott putting for par and missing "he just threw a depth charge down there" DIVE DIVE DIVE time to get back to reality Lanny. 2. "that is incredible" marveling about how Tiger marks his ball. Jim Nantz commenting "he misses nothing". I guess Tiger is a genius now. 3."he could really golf that ball" wow!

Our greens and fairways are in awsome shape. There are fans on every hole which I think helps the fungus, and they do some slit airation when they think they need to, 2 full airations per year. It has been hot but we have had some rain. I ran into the head keeper the other day and thanked him for the good work.

What type did he have? Was it a dedicated unit?

If you are so worried about trolling then why are you so defensive? Just admit you hijacked my thread.

First you accuse me of misrepresentation based on reading a single post of mine, then you can't even bother to admit you were wrong. You dismiss not reading the thread, then try to make it look like i'm arguing with you? I am simply correcting you, so lets be clear on what went down.

Did you read the first post? I doubt it. For your education I started this thread because I posted asking about which Windows Mobile GPS app people liked and it turned into a GPS VS Laser thread, so instead of taking my thread off-topic I made this one which seems to have some merit and there are many different views on the subject, however I never said I was a big fan of the range finder, or unbias, or objective.

Well the great thing about StarCaddy is the map is calibrated from satalite images for distance, so that you can click any 2 points on the map and get a measurement. The crap thing about StarCaddie is the maps are way overpriced in some ways. There are a few programs out there for Pocket PC/Windows Mobile5 that allow you to map your own course, but it takes a TON of time, so in that respect the $20 for the StarCaddie is worth it for somethign like your home course that you play all the time. As for the away courses, it is a shame that golfwitz or someone doesn't standardize the maps. Paying for them sucks, and there are 5 or 6 formats with most of the cources done over and over again.

Why would you say that? Because I have an opinion? Did you read any of my other posts on the subject? If you did you'd see that I do not have a sky caddy, I use my phone + a GPS reciever + a program called starcaddy which has nothing to do with Sky Caddie... I have some issues with the software and I do not think it is perfect (if they had the stats of intelligolf it would be perfect) but I am simply debating the topic, but perhaps I can start trolling the thread like you are. Do you work for Bushnell?

I'd disagree for those of us who tend to be off the fairway frequently. Perhaps your home course is flat and open, but the North Course of my club is extreemly hilly and with acute doglegs. I find I can't see my target 10-25% of the time. My GPS program has all the bunkers/water and tree lines on the map, and it allows me to measure front back of each. I can also get a real good idea of distance to the pin via looking at the pin location for that day and getting a distance on the gps to that area. It is all touch screen. If I didn't already have a factory unit in my car I could use my GPS for driving. I can use it for walking, virtual earth, just about anything you can apply a location based signal for. For my game front/back/middle is just fine but then again we are extreemly different skill levels so I can understand your difference of opinion.

I have the same problem. I shot a 104 sunday with a 9 on the front and an 11 on the back ( reverse that, I started on 10) with 42 putts. I have a short game lesson today to see if there is some nugget I am missing, as well as a methodology for putting practice. My iron play has been great, but it seems like even though I try to evenly distribute my practice time around if I am focused on improving irons, everything else falls down a notch. Driver, and putter, short game focus causes the other 3 things to fall apart. If you think about it if I converted those blowups to double bogy, and 2 putt averaged it would have been a 90. Add in more fairways hit ( i was hooking/pulling most of my drives.) it would be way better. I know I can do it, but like you said it is just the mental focus to be able to put it all together.

I think it would be interesting to time people setting up for their shot with GPS vs Range Finder. I'd put my money on GPS saving more time. I pulled my drive on a par 4 saturday but really bombed it. It ended up I could had a window over a ton of trees to get to the pin, I was 150 out, but there were enough trees that i'm sure you could have had an accurate reading with a range finder, you may have had to walk out to get clear.

I'm a big Noodle fan, but I play with a lot of used Titlist proV1's that I find around the course. We have a ton of seniors who just must loose a ton of ProV1's.

98, 39 putts but was hitting the irons good again. Short game lesson on monday should help. My index dropped 1.3 and i'm almost up to 20 rounds and an official cap.

Well it sure was a blast to go to pinehurst, but I was a bit disapointed at the greens. There are public tracks here in charlotte that are in better shape. If I wasn't expensing the trip I'd be real pissed at spending all that money for greens like that.

I am playing Pinehurst #4 tomorrow.

Yes I think that is the guy. He is funny as shit.

Who's the english guy who was a real smart ass during the british open? Not faldo, the older dood.

he is the Lanny Watkins of football. Just google worst football announcer and he is all over the place. Boomer sucks as well, and Phil Simms takes the cake.

My over the top is caused by leaning toward the target on my backswing very slightly. I would have never noticed without a lesson.

I'd get a lesson, or a video camera tape of you swing. You may be offballance.

How tall are you? You may want to do a fitting. I think hitting on the toe means you may need a longer shaft. It could also be your posture and distance you stand from the ball.

Just finished the north course with a 99, 6 GIR, 8 Fairways, 40 putts, and about 8 lost balls. Started out par bogie par though I'd have a good one, and then I caught the group in front of me and waited for the next 7 holes.
