I finished last season as a 10.4, which i was quite happy with. This year i started the year with aspirations of getting below 10, but my driver kept putting me OB. I took lessons, I prayed, I repeated "slow down", I did everything i could but the driver has been my nemesis. A couple weeks...

I'm taking a break from the north and heading down to visit my parents in the desert. Anyone up for a round in Palm Springs/Palm Desert/La Qunita/Rancho Mirage? M

I was playing in a match at my home course yesterday, and me and my competitor were paired up with a twosome that were not competing, they were just playing. Two things happened: 1. My competitor shanked a ball off the tee and the non-competitor started giving him advice on where to place his...

Hi all, Between a trip to Vegas and the pacific northwest, I have a few days to kill. I decided to make this my bucket list trip to pebble on May 31-June 2. I'm booked for Pebble and Spyglass. I can get a free round at Spanish Bay as part of the deal, or is there another course that is a MUST...

Hi, I am a clubcorp member going to palm desert tomorrow and am scheduled to play Desert Falls. How does it compare to Desert Willow (Firecliff)? Thanks, M

I'll be at Aviara Feb 2 and 3 if any THP'ers are down there and looking for a game. 10 cap.

I am looking for headcover(s) for my scotty. The ones that are expensive don't make sense to me, so if you have something in excellent condition at a reasonable price, please let me know. mike

So, I'll be heading down to San Diego first week of February for some meetings. I am a clubcorp member and can play La Costa Omni as part of club corp and stay at their place with a discount. How does La Costa compare to Aviara in golf. The fact I can play as part of ClubCorp makes it very...

Has anyone here used birdiebug to book a tee time? Is it similar to the other ones. I am looking at a tee time that through birdie bug is like 65% cheaper than regularly priced fee. I just don't want to through money away

Hi All, i'm heading down to FLL next week and am going to play: 1. Emerald Hills 2. Lago Mar 3. Plantation Preserve 4. Hillcrest 5. ? (open to suggestions) anyone want to join me? I'm a 10.6 index. Canadian.

Last year my 8 iron was 150 yards, this year my 7 iron is my 150 yard club. It took me a couple months of frustration and realizing that a slower, more relaxed swing with more club is getting me more GIR and lower scores than the first couple months of the season. I'm perfectly fine and...

shot 38 on the back 9 of my course yesterday... One double, one bogey, one birdie. It felt great to know the swing was reliable and accurate. Sure the front I was 46, but an 84 ain't bad for me as a 12 index. The biggest message i took from a great string of consistent golf was to slow...

can a shaft with a 910F surefit adapter fit into the 913 head?

I've put a NVS 85 (regular flex) shaft into my 913 D2 and now find the 62 g stock (r flex) shaft in my 4 wood a bit light. I like the heavier shafts in my driver and thinking a similar feel in my 913F 4 wood would be good. Should I look at the same shaft for the 3 wood but cut down in...
