Hey Zeph...Thanks for the input...every bit of help I can get makes me feel better about the putter. By the way, I was looking at your bag pictures. Brilliant set up you got there. Your vokeys look heavenly and it looks like you got a custom grind there (unless it's the finish). Beautiful set up once again. I'm sorry, I just love looking at equipment. lol.

So I contacted the seller a butt-load and he gave me the serial no. on the shaft and assured me that it was real. He even told me that he would take it back if I found that it was a fake. I guess you can say that I'm paranoid because I won it on a bid. Lol. I just want to make sure because I know that there are many who made the mistake of buying a putter on eBay and finding that dreaded plastic wrap on it. I'm a lefty so I also want to know if they make fake lefty scottys as well. I've done a lot of research and everything is spot on so far. I just need others' input to help me and bring closure to the real/fake issue that I'm having. Thank you guys on TST's forum. Your input will be greatly appreciated. Have a nice and positive day!

A perfect shot off the mats can never compare to the feeling of hitting a perfect shot off the grass...Unfortunately, the range that I live next to has dirt so thin, that every shot is a bunker shot...

Why is everyone so rattled up about Gipp and Tony? They're playing to win just like anyone would...The editing must be really good b/c people are taking the personal side of the show so seriously...lol...Ever notice that it's only Gipper and Tony talking to the camera during the show? This is what the producers want for ratings. And so far, it's working. Tony, Gipper, Kevin and Mike are still in it for a reason. They're playing well. They executed the shots when they had to. Most of the things they say on the show are given to them from the producers anyway so yea...Let's enjoy the competition. It's just a TV show for crying out loud...

I just had to vent somewhere for this topic. Is it me or is Blake, of Big Break Disney Golf, doing too much with his mouth than with his clubs? I kind of let it go through the first few episodes but man, it never ends. It's kind of embarrassing if you think about it. All these calm and, of course, pressured contestants trying hard on every shot and there is one loose cannon just letting off mini shots with his mouth after every shot. He also lets it out against other contestants. For the past two episodes I heard him say (referring to Kevin) "How is he still here?" WOW...The last time I checked, Blake has just as much, if not more, inconsistent shots as Kevin did through the show so far. He got mad at Kevin this week for saying "Wow" after he had just won. WOW...lol...Everyone knows that Andrew Giuliani has a GREAT golf game. He can back his talk up with his game. I think he should keep rattling Blake. haha...I love his grin before every shot. Gipper has a bad shoulder, Kevin is slicing the ball but they're not slamming clubs and tearing up grass on the show. (okay maybe the other contestants do slam their clubs but they do it at their bag not the course's grass...lol) Blake's actions make good TV but man does it bother me. This is golf man...you should have learned to control your emotions in your double digit handicap days. GO TONY FINAU!!! haha

cci forged or srixon i701 tour
pachardos replied to dmband8985's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
The Nike CCi Forged irons are one of the most workable irons to this day...The cavity gives it just enough forgiveness that seperates it from being a hard feely player's blade. I heard from many though that you get punished for hits way off center but if you hit is near or on the center most of the time, it's heavenly. Stewart Cink and Lucas Glover don't want to change them and I wouldn't either if they won me a major...lol...I could have gotten these irons for 180 on 3balls but I chickened out... =( Other than my love for the CCis...The Srixons are much more forgiving and they are really cheap at golfsmith right now. -
It amazes me how he hits a lot of bad tee shots and still gets it done. Best scrambler in golf history and arguably most clutch with the flat stick. I think many are getting to his level, especially phil (i admire ogilvy), but his work ethic can't be matched. His schedule is for those of you who have a great deal of time and money. AND he has a kid and one on the way...wow.

Pro V1 and swing speed
pachardos replied to walfice's topic in Balls, Carts/Bags, Apparel, Gear, Etc.
It should be 85 and over because Golf magazine said that tour balls really work with all swing speeds. -
Teeing up with a Fairway Wood......
pachardos replied to doin-it's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
I play it off the heel of my front foot and hit down on the ball. But that's just me...Sometimes I don't even tee it up...lol -
Help Picking Out New Clubs!
pachardos replied to HookEmHorns's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
It's always good to get fitted but if you're getting back into the game, technology has changed a buttload. The best new age clubs to start with (that will still be great in the long run) are Adams golf clubs. Chem them out, they're for everyone. -
I thought the same thing about Anthony Kim last year until I noticed that his work ethic is nothing compared to Tiger's. I don't know about Rory though.

I agree with BogeyHitter...Shorten up the back swing and accelerate through the ball. Shortening my back swing has helped me so much with my short irons. Now my woods are my worst enemies...lol.
-
I don't really like his attitude but I gotta respect the talent (besides the putting...lol). Everyone complained about the course during the practice round. It kinda pissed the staff off but it didn't stop the course from pitching in on a great Sunday...

Everytime I hear of a tragic loss like this, I cherish life and everyone that has made it so special. Always be grateful, humble, and thankful my friends. Life is too short. God Bless Nick A.

I hate thinking of how he lost. Especially because Angel was in the jungle on the first playoff and somehow managed to hit the tree of luck and onto fairway. I wanted Perry to win it for himself and for his parents. Such a class act, such a great story...Gotta love KP. But of course, congrats to Angel Cabrera...He was so consistent on that course throughout the whole tournament. He has that switch that just turns on everytime he's at the Masters. Great Masters this year.

Do you put a line on your ball?
pachardos replied to jhawker23's topic in Balls, Carts/Bags, Apparel, Gear, Etc.
I used to use the text on the ball...now my 2 ball putter lines it up just fine. I look at marking your lines helpful and traditional...I'm just too impatient to do it. LOL. -
I agree...zach Johnson's pants were brighter than dennis rodman's hair.

Mizuno introduces the sound of feel
pachardos replied to GaijinGolfer's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
That commmercial is so sick. If I had money, I would buy Mizuno equipment like range balls.Lol. -
Recommendations on a new 56* wedge
pachardos replied to Dr_Fu_Manchu's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
Cleveland CG 12 if you're comfortable with your striking and CG 14 if you need a little bit of a cavity back to help your flight. You can never go wrong with Cleveland or Vokey wedges. -
WOW! I've never seen that before. Thanks for sharing it! Love Vijay! beautiful swing and great attitude.

Yea, I agree...I love the Yanks and Derek Jeter is my fav but Tex and CC looked so nervous. Hopefully it's not a long term thing.
