LIVE UPDATE THREAD Dream Foursomes with True Temper and Callaway Golf

Well I mean with everyone talking about all the socks that do have an L and R, I'm just back to not being completely certain. It's still possible that I got 12 left footed socks and 0 right footed that also happen to be large in size.

We'll just never know at this point...


Very good company feedback you should email the help line to make sure! 😆😆😆
 
Well, after a crazy week at work and home, I finally finished this thread. Such a great read, man. These events are so amazing. It was great to see @JasonFinleyCG live in action again. No disrespect to any other sponsors here, but no one stirs the forum drink like Finley at an event. Watching stills of @+7 KPTT golf swing next to mine make me want to gouge my eyes out with a grapefruit spoon. #timetogrind.

So good to see my guy @BigDill again (even if it was only in pictures). Anyone who has had a chance to meet him knows that he's one of the most genuine people that you will ever meet. He's the "I'd travel a long way to play golf and hang out with that guy" type. As, I'm sure, all of the participants of this (and every) event are. And, in the end, that's the lasting value of any of these events. The swag? Off the charts. The equipment? Always top notch. The venues? Mind blowing. Every, Single. Time. The friendships fostered? The life changers. The rock star of the show. And, in the end, the only lasting thing that truly matters. And that is what is so cool about this place. I haven't had the chance yet to attend an official THP event but I was fortunate enough to get together with about 24 of them this past September and, though we lacked the swag, and the equipment, and @JB punching us in the eye for slow play, the THP spirit and vibe was all there. It was like meeting brothers that you were separated at birth from and meeting them in real life for the first time. There isn't a single guy in that group who, if they called me and said "I'm in trouble. I need you here", that I wouldn't book the soonest flight out and get my @ss out there to help.

That's what I love so much about these events. The internet golf porn stuff is next level, for sure. But knowing that these guys all just made lifetime friends is the coolest aspect of these events. I know that @JB and @GolferGal prefer to deflect the credit for these types of things but the fact of the matter is: none of these guys would have an inkling of who each other was if not for the for the tremendous amount of work that they (and the sponsors) put into these events. At it's core, it truly is one of those "my life was better because of..." things. They both deserve a tremendous amount of credit for that even if they choose to deflect it.

Remember the heartbreak you had when you found out that Santa Claus wasn't real? In a lot of ways, this place is my Santa Claus. It embodies a little circle of hope that is very real for all of us that eagerly anticipate the participation of these events. I just hope no one ever comes along and tells me "It isn't real" before I get the invite to one of these amazing gatherings.......

Thanks so much everyone for, yet, another amazing follow. Can't wait until next month, baby!
Thanks for the kind words Randy. Everyone was great to be around at this event. I hope we get to meet up again soon, if for no other reason than for me to show you the progress I have made with sitting in chairs.

Great recap @robrandalgz!
 
Welp, I got fitted this morning. First time in a long time. Really fun experience.

I am pleasantly surprised by the results. I thought I would get put into TCBs, but I need more bounce, so the Callaway Apex 21's are perfect. Hit a lot of shots with the 7 iron, and it feels like everything went into a 12ftx12ft box. I thought the dispersion with my Apex MBs was good, but these were incredible.

I did try the Epic hybrid and the UW hybrid, and I have no idea how to choose between them. I hit them both really well, and the fitter agreed they are phenomenal clubs. This will be a tough one. I may need to go back this afternoon or tomorrow.

BTW this was not a Callaway fitter. This was my local expert fitter. I tried about 6 or 7 brands, but the Callaways were so pure up and down the bag.

Really glad Finley and Keenan talked about fitting and the importance of fitting. Can't wait to get into the new clubs.

Happy to hear that your fitting went well. Best of luck with the Apex 21 irons. And I’m certain that either the UW or the Epic hybrid will work for you.

New irons acquired!! Used the Callaway Pre-Owned site for the first time. The customer service rep hooked it up, and they will price match if they go on sale for Black Friday. Plus, the agent knew Finley!

Trading in my MBs for the APEX. Callaway Pre-Owned does not have the same backorder issues, so I will have them shortly! :bananadance:

To close the loop here and after an epic battle in my head (pun intended), I went with the Apex UW in a 17 with a HZRDUS Black RDX 80g X shaft.

The UW launched rockets and the 17 degree is long enough to replace my 3 wood which I am very happy to replace. High launch low spin really nice carry and angle of descent.

Wish I had asked Keenan more about the difference between HZRDUS Black and HZRDUS Black RDX because there is not a lot online but in the endliked what I read about the RDX and fibers in the shaft.

I was almost certain I would go with the Epic hybrid until I hit the UW. The Epic is a great club toojust my spin numbers were a little high and the consistency of the UW is unmatched.

Can’t wait to get this in the bag with my new Callaway irons. Really going to round out my gear. Let’s go take it low!!!
 
Damn this hat is cool. The hammers logo is 🔥.

Don't see much wrong with that surprise from UPS. Hope you smash it!
 
Looking forward to your thoughts in the super hybrid thread

On a different note, I want to shout out to @V14_Heels and @Carolina Dundee. I had the most fun at the Dream Foursome almost a month ago, but one of the incredible parts of the event was the relationships we formed. The three of us have texted every day since, and I could not find a better group of people to talk golf with. @V14_Heels and @Carolina Dundee are what THP is all about! Hope I get to play with both of them and more THPers soon!

The other guys in the Dream Foursome are great THPers too, I would play with everyone again. Easily the most memorable rounds of golf for me in 2021.
