Other Sports ****Official Golf Thread**** - Page 2

The original Bushwood thread is overflowing like Craig Stadler's FUPA.

Use this thread to discuss tournaments, swing thoughts, equipment, and golf deals.

I thought we could also use the OP to create a WITB for ChiefsPlanet members. I'll list a poster's name and put their sticks in a spoiler tag, so you can see what everyone is carrying.

Still to wet here in Indiana. And I'm DYING to try out my new Cobra S3 irons. :-)

Maybe I'll try to do some chipping this afternoon if I can find a dry spot in the yard.

Word on Casper. Rip.

Also, it's startling how bad Tiger is these days.

Phil looks to me like he's coasting right now, he'll pick it up when we get closer to Augusta.

Man, I wish I could get out and play today. I have pretty much a new set of clubs and I've only been able to hit them at the range once.

I had an old set of Palm Springs cavity back clubs that I bought about 25 years ago. I replaced the driver with a TaylorMade Burner 9.5º about 3 years ago, and just recently replaced the irons with TaylorMade Rocketbladez irons (4-AW) and the 3W with a Rocketballz Stage 2 Tour 3W. My wife also bought me an Odyssey White Ice #9 putter for Christmas. I still need to replace my 5W, which I never used anyway. Never could hit that damn thing. I'll probably look into some sort of hybrid club.

Anyway, can't wait to get out to play.

Had a helluva season last year. Dropped my handicap index 8 strokes. Played today and had my worst round by far since June.

I picked up an XCG-7 4 wood last summer for a song, but the head was just way too light. I ended up flipping it on GolfWRX for a small profit and went back to my XCG-4.

This year I'm really focusing on fixing the two major flaws with my swing:

1) My backswing gets way, way too long
2) My shoulders are way too steep on the downswing and I get stuck like you wouldn't believe.

And that decision may have cost him the win. Day won the playoff.

Yep. Tiger and Phil missing cuts every week is going to kill the ratings.

I watched the Waste Management anyway, mainly due to the 16th hole.

Watched about 10 minutes this weekend.
