    Old Waverly and Mossy Oak

    I saw this locally the other day. Not sure what, if anything, to make of this. Two very nice courses no doubt. Played old waverly before. But they aren’t exactly close to any metro location. Starkville is 30 minutes away but mostly smaller towns other than that. I looked at stay and play...

    Are you a club design optimist, or pessimist?

    I’m not sure. There have certainly been many developments in the time I’ve been golfing. Oversized drivers, hybrids, crossovers, much more forgiving irons, and shaft advancements and options. And all of these get refined yearly. But year to year, I’m not sure repositioning 5g of weight for...

    3.5 hr 9 holes

    If I get behind a slow group w an open hole in front of them I’ll just skip a hole and jump in-front of them. But in this case, it sounds like the pace in front of them wasn’t much better.

    What is one aspect of your game that has really improved in ‘24?

    Chipping. After years of sucking at it I finally feel comfortable chipping around the green. I don’t track stats as close as some, but I’ve easily saved 4-5 shots a round.

    Better player bags (non THPers)

    You ever look at a better players bag that is not a thper or club hoe, and come away surprised? I played through a few guys yesterday that we’re practicing for stage 1 of q school, to be held at this course next week, and I will admit, I was a bit surprised at the age of some of their clubs...

    Lost ball in taller rough?

    Yeah, in neither case did hitting a provisional even cross my mind. If there was a local rule I was unaware. Actually the only reason I knew of the upcoming q school is I ran up on a few guys who were practicing for it. Hitting lots of chips and puts on the greens. All let me play through.

    Why aren't there any Maltby club reviews?

    I guess that’s kinda what I’m wondering as I consider these clubs. They are designed to have a high mpf, but don’t look like a sgi type club. For reference I’m playing to a 10 rn. I’ve played i20s in the past but my current irons are g25s. I have no complaints w them, but if I could find a...

    Lost ball in taller rough?

    I was playing a course yesterday that is about to host a q school qualifier, so they are growing the rough up. It’s been dry so some spots aren’t too bad, but some are lush. I lost two balls in the rough. Neither was far off line. One was 5-10 yards off the green, the other was 3-5 yards off...

    Why aren't there any Maltby club reviews?

    Interesting that you find the i5 more forgiving on off center strikes. I would have thought the opposite. Thanks for the thoughts.

    Why aren't there any Maltby club reviews?

    I’ve been considering a pac set of TS3 irons, using all of their standard components. If they are back in stock I guess it’s time to decide if I want to jump in w the full set or just get 1 to try.

    Tenn starting 10% “talent” fee

    Pretty much sums up my thoughts. Schools are making millions. The big time schools at least. Coaches are getting paid big time too. Players deserve a cut. But as someone else said, the nfl has a salary cap and does not have 100% unrestricted free agency every year. College football...

    The Liv Golf Rumor and News Thread

    So if they (liv players) are allowed in the dp tour, How big are these fines to the dp tour the liv players keep complaining about? Is it different amounts for different players? Asking because I do periodically see liv players on the dp tour(I think) but others are complaining about the fines...

    The Liv Golf Rumor and News Thread

    This probably blows a hole into my theory. I thought all along the pga/pif would fall apart and that pif/liv would cut a deal w the dp tour. It would give liv players access to world ranking & rider cup points through dp tour events and give liv a farm system. Kinda surprised they turned it down.

    5 Utility v. 5 Hybrid v. 5 GI Iron - What do you got?

    I go 4h, 5 crossover, 6 GI iron. I can hit the crossover noticeably higher than the GI 5i. But it’s older and ping doesn’t make a 5 crossover any more.

    Maxfli Tour/ Tour X review

    Did a third 9 v 9 comparison between the pro v1X and the maxfli tour x this morning and came away w basically the same thoughts. They play very very close for me. The maxfli may actually fly a little higher off the driver, which is good for me. Very similar performance into the green. It may be...

    2024 Better You Fitness Thread

    I’ll join this thread. With a return to golf this spring after a 5 year break, I knew I wanted to improve my fitness. I started w just being more active, adding in walking constantly, then body weight exercises I could do at home. I’ve recently joined a gym and my focus is endurance/cardio...
