  1. I have a love , hate relationship with them . One minute I love em next hate em . Have never gotten used to them after playing MP-29's for years . AS for pete , well he is probably indisposed :lol:
  2. Get the house , that would be a little bit more important than clubs . :) But if you decide you couldn't live without a set of the 690.MB , you could always send me a PM :wink:
  3. Sweet pic Al , I see your laguna is just as old as mine . Minus the 3 red dot's . I just wish the laguna was a bit shorter heel to toe , sort of like the ping zing . I would think that Gauge could probably do something for you , they do it for everyone else why not you . Myself am not a TM putter fan , but have not tried very many so that could be the reason . Sorry . :wink: But I do want to try a Mezza , but first would have to try a baby bee , or even a baby ben .
  4. One question there AL , do you still have all 3 of those putters :?: Right now I have a Laguna 2 PP , Mil Spec and a Futura . Which one do you like the best so far ?
  5. Everyone , if a bidwell grip is the only grip you happen to have and you need one quick , go without . They have got to be the worst grip I have ever had on any club that I have owned . In other words YUCK and Double YUCK :)
  6. Naw that wouldn't work either . Am going to wait till the fall or yntill I dump some club's . Might have a real address come Sept . Which means I might also have high speed internet and no more phone line :lol:
  7. Are those the ones that are currently being recalled and pulled out of North America. :lol: :lol: Lucky dog ! :wink: :lol:
  8. Before I get to far ahead about another set of club's I better get use to the one's I'll have when I come back from my trip first :lol:
  9. Congrats there pete . Now you and AK have one and I feel like the poor older brother to you two guys :lol: I still only have a Titleist carry bag , so I guess I'll just have to soldier on without for now :( :lol: yeah your also lacking the TM 300's to go inside... but we appreciate your individualism... I had to get it, when I went to the store and saw it for $229 I felt like I was being ripped off not to buy it. For that reason and only that reason I'll noy pick on you for going to the dark side :lol: Will have to get rid of a least 2 sets of the blades I have now before I could even think about getting a set of the 300's . Plus I haven't seen to many sets that come with a 2 iron and I try to make sure all of my sets have one . Use it off the tee on a lot of holes where I play . I just sold my futura so this wasn't really a negative in the cash catagory. I am still ahead a few buck on that transaction. I would hope so . After just posting about the fact I don't see that many sets 2-pw of the 300's , I go to eBay and there is a set :( Only problem I ca see is that he will only ship bt courier and I can't have that for as I only have Postal Box number for a address and couriers will not deliver to them up here :( Plus like I said will have to get rid of at least 2 sets of blades before I can even think about getting a set of 300's .

  11. That is a problem with Mats. Your answer may lie in the grass. Turf sucks!!! Yup they sure do . Our grass range opens the beginning of May and closes in Oct . Rest of the year we are still open and hit off mat's . So I don't hit a lot of ball's during that time . :(
  12. Congrats there pete . Now you and AK have one and I feel like the poor older brother to you two guys :lol: I still only have a Titleist carry bag , so I guess I'll just have to soldier on without for now :( :lol:
  13. The thin shot's could also just be from the mats you are hitting off . I also hit the ball thin off mats . I just think that you/me are trying to pick the ball off the mat , rather than take our normal swing . For me it's more of a defence mechenisum (sp)? so as not to cause any undue pain in the hands , wrists and elbows . :( Also to protct my clubs :) For me I find when I get back onto grass the problem disappears completely within the first 5 swings .
  14. So there is a difference after all . Hmmm Thanks for the info , to bad he don't ship to Canada . Will have to rethink on the truf now as I don't have a basement , we don't have a frost line where I live so none of the house's have basements . Would only be able to use it outside :(
  15. Thanks for asking Mike. I am going to take the Baby Bee out tomorrow or Ssturday for its first round. I love the head and feel but damn that grip is huge. I haven't had time to get it regripped yet but I may do that tomorrow and then play sat. Hell my scotty Newport 2.5 SS is feeling pretty good right now. Damn this putting on the carpet...makes all my putters feel great. I just saw a putter exactly like mine going for about 265 on ebay so I am almost contemplating selling it and using the money for a set of 680's or 690's or a set of 300 NS grind. When we build our house I am getting a mat like the turf used at Lambeau field for the basement and I want a new set of sticks and use my 300 for pratice on the mat. This is the mat I am thinking of getting: http://sportnetting.com/fieldturf.htm Oh crap if I do this I am a ho. I mean selling a putter without really using it. Pete I will gladly buy one of the hats...hell two if I could get a white one and a blue one (if not I would get the black one). Hope it works out well for you . Now question is it a baby bee or a baby ben ? My pro does the hogan stuff and I see that they have a baby ben on their web site . AS to the turf , that stuff look fantastic . I will have to ask if they have a guy up here that sells it and if not would they ship it to Canada . Very nice stuff.
  16. Alcap , is the baby bee still in the running for first putter or has it dropped down to second string :?:
  17. I also do like the fact that they nor anything else is shoved down our gullet . For a fact that reason but mostly for the people that are here is the main reason I'm here . Sure I still got to the other site once in a while and I make the odd post as I'm sure most other member do , but here is where the heart is and it's staying . It just pisses me off when clown's like him show up every once in awhile and post nothing but crap . I just find it ironic that they always seem to show when there is somethnig new posted here that could be or is better and less expensive than over there and make ugly posts . Enough of this rant , so how was everybody's day today . Mine was boring as usual , not even any cop's to piss off today :D
  18. On to a different subject guy's . Have you all been reading the post's in the tourspecrefinishing thread ? Anybody ever heard of/knows who this Scooter321 is ? He sure has a potty mout on him and I think his mommy should take a bar of soap to it . Now I'm not saying that everthing that has been posted is the truth and nothing but the truth , but if this clown doesn't stand down and take a deep breath there could be trouble on the horizon . From whom don't know but he does seem to be a little bit biased towards a certain place that does refinishing and I'm sure that it has already gotten back to the dark side site . If I'm wrong about this let me know and if you all have any different take on it after reading all the posts let me know .
  19. Mike replied to primo's post in a topic in Japanese Golf Clubs
    The biggest problem I can see with having a reverse C is the back problems it can cause . Use to have one a slight one and my back was always in pain , once I got rid of the reverse C ( as much as possible :) ) my back problems went away . That happened to me , don't know if that will happen to you primo , but it is something you have to watch for .
  20. Damn you do and that is the biggest fix that will help you :) :lol:
  21. Wow , that is a big change . Got to remember pete that a fade is easier to talk to than a hook :) Take your time and straighten out the big draw slowly as it is a big fix man . It won't happen overnight as that has been my biggest problem ever since I started playing this crazy game . And I still am working on it .
  22. Do what you got to do to get on his good side pete :wink: You never know when guys like him will come in handy some day :lol:
  23. If he doesn't want a lot of money for the 757 pull , you might as well try it . Who know's might end up being your Holy Grail shaft :)
  24. Haven't seen that commercial yet , but it takes awhile for them to make it north of the border . I sure hope it warms up , am bringing nothing but shorts to golf in :)
