  1. same as above but in groups 3/4 i would go Cink/ Clark
  2. Anyone try to brew their own beer? I've been reading online and am interested in trying it over the winter.
  3. What Ross course in Boston is 8 dollars?
  4. Next year sets up great for him. Last time they had the us open at Pebble he narrowly won by 15 and the open at st andrews is almost an automatic win for him every 5 years it would seem. I think he played decent last time the PGA was at WS like 4th he finished maybe but dont quote me and hell always be atleast in contention at Augusta so I see him getting 2 or 3 next year.
  5. classic: donald ross modern: arthur hills least: Geoffrey Cornish
  6. quaker ridge is quite a fine track do you still play there now?
  7. i was collecting pencils for a while but got out of the habit no I only grab ones from the best courses.
  8. third hole at wannamoisett, it serves as the picture hole for the donald ross society so you know its good. 135 yard small green surrounded by deep bunkers, a hill left and long and a creek right.
  9. ive played pga national and doral blue, white and gold courses. the blue monster was my favorite out of those 4
  10. yea its because of the different grinds if you go to the vokey website it details all the grinds and has pics.
  11. +1 on cottonwood decent track at a decent price.

    Eagles?

    I started out eagle-eagle in practice for my high school a few years ago. 1 is a short par 5 about 475 yards and I knocked it to 10 feet and made it then 2 is a par 4 about 380 i hit hybrid and 52* out of the right rough into the hole. I was a little disappointed when my 2nd shot didnt go in on the par 4 3rd lol.
  13. Ive played far corner i thought it was pretty nice layout. I forgot to mention Pleasant Valley, i don't know how i forgot that one.
  14. I'm from Seekonk. Favorite courses in MA that I have played are CC of New Bedford, Duxbury Yacht club, Wyantenuck CC, Red Tail GC, Blue Hills CC, Pine Hills (Nicklaus course), Fall River CC (Half the holes), and Farm Neck on Martha's Vineyard. I play mostly golf in RI though.
  15. A few years ago the usga started giving the NCAA champ an invitation to the US am, and also the publinx if they are eligible. Also having it on your resume will get you into about any invitation field in the country. And the US am runner up even gets into the masters and us open for the following year if they remain an amateur.
  16. us am without a doubt. NCAA championship is a real great title to have but theres a reason the us am champ is invited to the masters, us open, and british open.
  17. I would love to see the PGA championship go back to match play. It is kind of the odd child as far as the 4 majors go and was match play until like 1958 or somewhere around there. This would distinguish it from the others. Make is the same format as the us amateur. 36 holes qualifying for 64 spots. it would give a club pro or two a chance to make it through some rounds of match play and really compete. The downside is you may end up with a less than disireable matchup on sunday which would hurt ratings but what would be better than and tiger phil head to head battle for a major.
  18. I'm guessing by transfer he means (ball speed/clubhead speed)
  19. Try to qualify for usga events getting into one is the best exposure you can get. Play in the AJGA but it is tough to get into event these days if you are not already established. Play well in your state level events. Pick a few schools you are interested in a believe you could play at, I'd say 5-10 and email the coaches. When you play well in events send them the scores.
  20. Because its a long holiday weekend and they can basically get three days of "weekend" coverage if they have the tournament fri-mon
  21. has anyone slept in their car to play the black, a friend and I were planning on doing it either this fall or next spring, what time the day before should you get there and what day is the best to do it on?
  22. What course is it? Maybe I've played it being from the area.
  23. The key is to accelerate through the shot. As soon as you decel the club will get caught up and you will either chunk it or the club will flip and the ball will squirt out left.
  24. I know ebay has them I was looking at that color combo the other day.
  25. Black Magna makes grips that are designed for people with arthritis, some players at the club I used to work at used them and said they helped a little maybe its worth a try.
