    FS: Bushnell v4 slope patriot pack

    Pretty self explanatory. Works and looks like new. Used for a few rounds and elected to go with a Leupold instead. Comes with original red sleeve, carrying case, battery, and the assorted included papers and manual. I can send along the original box if you wish (let me know specifically if you...

    Golf Bucket (Wish) Lists. Post them here!

    Short and long term Goals, wish list things, people in golf you want to meet, places you want to visit/play, whatever things big and small your heart desires, post them here! They can be as grounded or as farfetched as you want because... that's pretty much the point of a bucket list. :) It'd be...

    Chicago area thread (Northern IL, Milwaukee, Northern Indiana too)

    Productivity is going to suffer today knowing that these just came in the mail last night.

    What are you building? (Club style)

    well, after way more headaches and more wasted time than I care to admit, the new weapons are finally on the home stretch! The swing weights are identical (even weighed the grips so they'd be the same) and bent crazy flat the way I like it. All that is left to do is clean up a little dried...

    Help with epoxy up graphite shaft problem

    Hi all, I've been doing a reshaft job with some graphite shafts and I noticed that after drilling out the epoxy with a 12 inch long bit that there is still epoxy further up the shaft and I can't see through or blow through the shaft. I don't know how this happened as I didn't do the previous...

    Best Shot Of Your Round

    2 shots today. First, rolled a par putt about 5 inches past the hole from about 8 feet. Walked towards it to tap in and the ball starts trickling back. It backed all the way up and dropped for the par. 170yd par 3. Hit a ball sky high and lost track of it. Heard a loud thump and this:

    What are you building? (Club style)

    I was hoping to have new weapons built and ready to go but my ferrules didn't come in. The place that manufactures and sells the ferrules are an hour away from me. I called them to see if I can pick them up today but they insisted on mailing it even though their facility is right there! Drove...

    Chicago area thread (Northern IL, Milwaukee, Northern Indiana too)

    Hello people, didn't see a Chicago area thread and thought I would start one so people can talk all things local and maybe play some golf together. I'm always up for a round, especially on Saturdays and occasionally the sneak-out-of-the-office-weekday round. :) Also, where do you guys hit the...

    FS: Ogio Sprint stand bag Black

    Went to a 14 way bag so this one needs a new home. It is very lightly used and in excellent condition. The only sign of wear is some scuffs on the plastic base and the kick stand pedal (see pics). It is a super light bag with the Woode Management top. Includes the stock rain hood. Seeking...

    How important is your 14th club?

    No, I don't mean the almighty flatstick! *dodges tomatoes* I mean in order of importance. I noticed last year that I only carried 13 clubs. When I added some hybrids to my bag, I started taking long irons and fairways out and somehow never noticed that I pulled one too many. Driver, 3-5h...

    Who builds your clubs?

    So you've had your fitting. You know what you want in shafts and club heads. What do you do then? Do you buy the clubs and shafts and DIY? Do you buy from your fitter? Big box store (GG, GS, etc.)? Local guy? Do you stick to offerings by the OEM? Always the same place or shop around...

    Anyone near/at Peoria, IL this weekend?

    I'm in Peoria twittling my thumbs until the Michigan game and not much else. Weather looks great and I'm looking to play a round tomorrow (Sunday). Any Peoria or nearby THPers want to play? Bear in mind this'll be my first round of the year so expect plenty of duffing down the fairway. PM...

    Anyone ever thought about painting metalwood heads custom colors/designs?

    I was looking through the paint fill thread and started to think about custom painted metalwood heads. I don't mean refinishing to cover up idiot marks as it's easy enough to find people to do that. I was more wondering if people ever had the compulsion to have their metalwood heads painted in...
