I'm aware of hickory golf organizations, but is there an organization for people who like equipment from the 1950's though 1970's? Pre-cavity back and pre metal wood? It would be fun to go out with a group to play a tournament with old Blue Ridge or Dynapower clubs. I spend hours looking...

I get to golf with friends a few times a month, during the summer. I'm a high handicap player, and I'm good with that. With a young family time is a priority. Perhaps someday I'll get back to lessons. For now, I'm just having fun. I'm using a set of circa-2010 game improvement irons, with...

I can't help but say that I'm more than a little disappointed in the format chosen for golf's return to the olympics. 72 hole tournament? What makes this any more challenging than a typical large tournament. All of the top regulars will be there playing a typical tournament. Wouldn't it...

Let's play a game. What is the make and model of the first three balls you pull from your shag bag? 1) Slazenger RD Fusion 2) Intech Beta TL 3) Wilson Smart Core

Are there any other record collectors out there? I work in radio so I have a pretty good CD collection from over the past decade. For me there is noting like a good record. I'm not an audiophile by any stretch of the imagination, but there is noting like the feel of a good record store find...

How did you find your playing regular partners? College buddies? Neighbor? Co-worker? Spouse? THP? Church? Just hanging out at the clubhouse? Personally I don't have a regular foursome. I play occasionally with fraturnity brothers, my priest, or another exec from work.

How many different sizes of tees do you carry during a typical round? Do you use the kind with height marks on them or are are your tees blank?
