HAHA... you got someone elses name on your putter! Whats that a hand-me-down... could buck up the cash for your own... had to use you uncle's old putter! One time I found this putter it had TIGER on it... must have belonged to some little kid or something. I mean who would get TIGER put on thier putter. Well it must have been a big kid cause it was full size. Either way I don't know what got into me but I threw it in a lake... it was a real bad hole for me so I just gave it a toss. The course was a monster though. It was............................................

So I take it then that you are not getting and coolant in the pass compartment ?? If you were that would mean heater core problems . Red X looks hot and so does the almost grand they are going for on eBay 8O huh? The air conditioning works... and when I turn on the heat it helps a lot.

well my father... the optimist thinks its just a thermostat problem... me... the pesimist... I think its the transmition, it seems to be reving real high at highway speeds. as for the putter... my putting is ok, I have been fooling around with an olf POS oddessy, I hate the insert but I kind of like the plumers neck. It makes me feel more confident. Hence the NP 2. The red X just looks real tempting... I'll need to give it a demo, but it looks hot.

good find!!! 2 funny!

looks like fun! remember that post about the billards game I play on the putting green to help me tune in my putting... same idea but the home version.

If you liked the Rac cbs beside what you have mentioned you should really try the TM 300's. You can pick up a mint set real cheap, and for about half of what you wanted to spend you can get a muria forged set. I am a huge fan... they are soft, forgiving and have a wonderful timeless straight forward design. I really want to lust over other irons... I really do, however I have yet to find anything that looks as appealing as these. At address these things look more blade like than most blades, but without the requirements on your swing. I also think I have heard they have a touch more offset than the RAC cbs, but I have never compared them side-by-side myself. If you want a WOW factor, remove the paintfill! If you want the rare wow factor go with the Box toes, also known as the Lehman grinds.

Hey mike I played nine today!! But my car has developed an over heating problem... this is real bad news not only could it ruin my budgeting to get me a either a red x or a np 2, but it could also limit my golfing even further. My car may be sidelined permenantly or atleast for a week or two. I really don't have a way to make it to the course!!!! My only golfing buddy has one of those anti golfing girlfriends. He actually has to sneak out to the course to play, shhhh!! but he wasn't supposed to be golfing today!, so his action is limited at best. He usually plays at 6:30am on a Saturday so he can be bitch wipped for the rest of the day... 6:30am really doesn't comply with my lifestyle! on a Friday if I put down the beer before 4am something must be wrong in the universe. And ff I get up that early for golf it better be atleast 36 holes. I am so glad my girlfriend isn't anti-golf... I am really glad she is pro-golf. She always asks me to send her a text before I tee off so she knows not to try to call. Then when I call her after I am done she asks me about my round... AND SHE ACTUALLY WANTS TO HEAR AND LISTENS TO ALL THE NASTY DETAILS. For example I told her yesterday that I worked on explosion shots after my round b/c I was struggling on short beach shots and today she asked specifically if my sand play was any better!!!! I was shocked... now I feel bad about glazing over when she talks about some topics. The great thing is my girl understands that its time for the boys to be boys... my friends girl actually forced him to go out and buy her clubs so she could play, which she only did once. Even if my girl did play I would still want to get out with the guys from time to time... and I am sure my girl would understand this... Poor guy, and he just bought a house with her! He's done he just signed up for a life of suck (and not the good kind)! Damn i just threadjacked myself in my own thread... now that takes skill! Anyhow... significant others who try to hinder golf playing suck, and the fact that I can't get to a course sucks bigtime!

Am truely sorry to hear that shoe :( But maybe it is time that you relocate someplace that doesn't rain so much in the summer and in the winter you don't freeze your ass off :wink: :lol: In my soon to be home of Augusta they had tornado warning all weekend!! YIKES!! we don't have that kinda stuff in Philly! Yikes is right . But look at it this way pete , Augusta has so much more than Philly does to offer . Some of it bad , but most of it GREAT :!: :!: :!: hmm lets see... Cheap Golf Warm Weather Cheap Beer And one hot girl who likes having me around... yeah I think I can weather a few tornado's for that!

The additional weights have been out for a while now, but they are only 2g and 10g weights. They are expensive at like 60.00 for 4 of them. I think it will be 100.00 for the 8 plug sets. Ive got lead tape all over my R7, Im not sure if the weights really work anymore. I need 25g plugs. That was my point of contention with the R7 since the first pics started floating around... why don't I pick up a 510 TP and a roll of lead tape and schedule some time on a launch monitor...

Round of Golf - $55 Box of Top Flites - $3 Finding a Pro V1 in the Rough - Free Dying from a cobra bite - Priceless... Don't be a cheap bastard buy your own balls with Master Card!

I was thinking of installing a trap or 2... place a ball in the rough with fishing line attached to it... on the other end of the fishing line... a deadly pissed off cobra. Some jerk tries to lift the ball and WHAM! a fatal dose of cobra venom!

I actually got out to play today... went to the good old muni for some ghetto golf. I hate muni people!!!! my ball got stolen 2 times! True I had this odd 20yrd fade that showed up with th driver off a few tee's but just cause I am in the rough don't give someone the right to pick up my ball while they are looking for thiers. I even had the opertunity to confront one guy who I saw pick up my ball... the fat bastard lied through his teeth to me! I wasn't about to get nasty about it on the golf course cause its not my style but I hope the jack @ss threw out his back swinging at the thing and will never be able to play again. The other guy just played the wrong ball without looking at it... I guess I can forgive that but I hope the other guy rots in golf hell.

those cats look like they would hang themselves if they could tie a slip knot!

Yeah you would have some new clubs , but tell me when would you get to use them and in what year :lol: :lol: :lol: Naw pete , I don't think you would want to go to the big house for me :lol: Making little rocks out of big rocks . :lol: :lol: I played today! :P

I'll kick some ass for new clubs! bring them on!

That would be kinda silly... the the whole idea is to get the best fit possible, it would kinda undermine the concept to only sell one loft.

Its all about the same thing... the DASS or GSS is just heat treated 2 times instead of one. It costs a little more b/c its a special order from the steel mill. Its not really used to often b/c its so close to regular 304 S.S. It is actually a harder material than 304, however it has a tighter grain than 304 so vibrations are conducted better. You can do some crazy stuff to steel when you start quenching in different liquids and reheating. The cost difference is really minimal though. this stuff ain't gold, its easily made. On the scale of SS its still right near the bottom as far as cost goes.

your avatar would recognize a rambler..hell he probably HAD a Rambler :lol: WE also had a Rambler when I was just a young fella :lol: :lol: My second grade teacher Ms. Muransky had a fire engine red rambler - way too cool. Didn't we discuss a drink by the name of "the Rambler" early on in this thread... something diet coke and Jack?

its like poker or blackjack... for us novice its a lot of luck, sure we know what to do and when to do it but the luck factor is really the difference between having a good day and just doing alright. For the pros luck is barely even a factor. When I play pool I consider it part luck if I get the ball to go where I want to... for a pro there is no luck at all. to say pro golf is all luck one must have there head so far up there...

are peole still considered golfers at +18? jk HEHEHHE btw... I am barely under that line... FREAKING SHORT GAME!!!

Regardless of politics this was just priceless. I almost had to clean the coffee off of my keyboard. Have to agree with you there CL , but for me it is diet coke :lol: btw: what is a Republican , wasn't that some kind of aircraft or something like that in WW2 :?: I thought it was funny and I have to agree, back in the Pre TSG days I wouldn't have thought of putting a TM product in the bag just because I didn't want to be a sheep... but I have been over here so long that that kind of thinking has been washed from my memory.

Just an FYI I just a twinkle in my parents eye in 1980... enjoy your day! And don't worry I hit a 3i about 27ft.

I'm all about the Chapell Show and the Iron Chief. I really like the new Iron Chief series that has Chiefs that are famous over here because I can actually relate to what they are making. The difficult thing about the Japanesse one was that I couldn't figure what half of the dishes would taste like b/c the ingredients were really exotic for this part of the world or used in a way that isn't common to our palettes.

Your right 500% was pushing it... however the fact remains, no matter whos pockets are getting lined, the prices are drastically exagerated.
