I golf on a league for work and we play 9 holes each week. They calculate our handicap for us. Occasionally when I visit my mom and play, we play for small money. How does my 9 hole handicap translate to a 18 hole handicap? Just double it?
Because it is going to make it harder to find clubs that I like!!!
Maybe it is just an asthetic thing. Maybe I am a retro grouch. Who knows, I am just happy to be playing again.
I did see a bunch of Burner Bubbles on ebay for like $10. Maybe I should stock up for the future. Titleist 975d's too!
I am not discounting good drivers of the ball. They can use any club and do it good. I am talking about the less skilled players(which is most of us). Instead of trying to better our swing and improve we just buy a driver with a bigger sweet spot. I like to know I am getting better because of skill growth rather than driver growth. It is hard to judge that when you have a driver that has the sweet spot the size of a baseball.
Yup, I played last week when it was 70 degrees for a day. I just started playing again on a golf league for work. Mistwood in Lake Ann is the course we play. I love The Homestead.
Easy is a relative term. Sure, they don't make the game easy. But they do make the game easier than with older equipment. How am I going to know if my swing is better and more consistent if I am using clubs with a sweet spot the size of Texas?
I haven't been really into golf in about 6 years(when I moved out of my parents house and it ceased to be free
). I started leisurely looking at drivers. They all look like frying pans on a stick! How do you hit these monsters? Are there any smaller head drivers left out there?
Great game last night. This is going to be a hard fought series.
My picks;
Vancouver over Chicago in 6
Wings over Ducks in 6
Bruins over Canes in 5
Penguins over Caps in 7
