chainsaw Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 D1 as in Divison 1 golf for 4 years . Probably kick all our asses then Unfortunately, yes. She played at Texas Tech and yes, she does kick my butt. :oops: .The worst part of the deal is she never practices anymore. When we first started dating 3 years ago she was right around par from the men's tees but now she can only bust out low 80's from the mens tees. I did beat her once but she came about 2 inches away from a tie from 140 out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the time it's " your going golfing again " then I get the look :( But as I said inbetween right now so I don't have to worry :lol: :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillypete Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 She is into golf, she played D1 for four years. However, I doubt a new SW would get me anywhere near the bedroom. Just trying to think outside of the proverbial flowerbox. your best bet is to talk to the two women your significant other won't mind you talking to... Tiffany and Victoria... :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chainsaw Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 Looks like Vicki's Secret is gonna win by a strap. I know you can't go wrong with the little blue box but she's not big on jewelry. At least that's what she says now. I'm sure when it's time to pony up for the big ring she's gonna become a closet diamond expert. Back to the stuff that matters, Have you guys seen the here's to you wingdog commercial? Funniest thing I've seen in a while it actually made me LOL last night. Mike, it's startin' to warm up. Supposed to hit 65 Sunday. I think it'll be great when you get out here.

I sure hope it warms up , am bringing nothing but shorts to golf in :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillypete Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 So I tried out this new clubmaker for the AK's Prolite install in my driver after the last shop had to take 3 tries at reshafting my 3w. The guy was a little crazy... too much epoxy fumes but seemed to know his stuff. He did it while I waited which was real cool! He suggested to go with a full insert to help me kep my ball down a little. We were shooting the s**t while he worked he was really talking up the UST shafts. He had a ton of pulls just laying around... I think I might try to get him to throw a 757 in my 3w. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going to test the Prolite tonight and then give him a call in a few days... maybe he has something else interesting he'd like to throw in... I was showing me a 757 that he pulled for someone that was straight off the tour van. He definitly knew his stuff about tour specs and all that... I am definitly going to have to butter this guy up a bit he seems to be a good friend to have! If this guy is real friendly about the shafts I may have to pick up a 9.5 983K to experiment with.

phillypete Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 well I got the Prolite out on the range... its not the answer to all my prayers but it is soooooooooo much better than that telephone pole I had in my driver. I hadn't swung a club in 2 weeks so the swing was a little rusty so I don't feel I can give the best review right now but I will say that I love the weight and the torque gives it a nice release feeling. And the winn grip is really really sweet, if only they could make those things to last longer. Unfortunately it kicks it a little higher than the old POS... not really ballooning but no roll... I'm going to hang on to this a little longer and give it a full month or so to prove itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally you will see more consistent results. Also - did the installer do a full insert ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally you will see more consistent results. Also - did the installer do a full insert ? yeah we went full on it, which was a great choice b/c I have a feeling without that extra 1" it would have felt like a noodle. I actually corrected a huge swing flaw and now and I drawing to hooking everything. I wasn't letting my hands cross over at impact instead I was breaking down the left elbow... which would leave the club face open. So I went from a 5 yrd fade to a 20yrd hook. It'll just take some work to clean up some of the habits I had to keep my fade at bay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 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 .

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 . well the fade is gone.... not coming back... I was swinging all left handed, chicken wingin' through impact. Now I am coming through with the right, keeping my left elbow straight, allowing the wrists to turn over... I am doing it right. the difficulty is over the year I have built up so many glitches to try to help close the face down even though my swing wouldn't allow it. A lot of it is probably my grip... my teacher (who I haven't seen in eons) always told me I needed to rehab my grip b/c as soon as I started swingning correctly I would start hooking the piss out of it... she was right. I just need to grow into this swing change... I think I might get some more distance out of this too. Before it was like I was bunting the ball, but now I am letting the clubhead come through the ball... Damn I need more range time!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKFLY Posted February 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 Pete - Now you can NV if you want since you do not have to worry about the fade. But if you can a deal on the speeder def. try that first . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 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 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alcap26 Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 You know I like the idea of the tourspec refinishing. I just do not feel like they are being shoved down my throat like it is on the other site. If CGC does great work then fine but do not come over to this site and piss on the arrival of some competition and then try to flatter it...saying he respects Joe K and then at the same time say that he charges more. I mean this site is better than this and I do not like someone coming over and trying to bring it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean this side is better than this and I do not like someone coming over and trying to bring it down. I thought Joe K stopped doing finish work. But you are exactly right on. If I don't end up getting new wedges I probably will send my Clevelands there - they are suppose to offer regrooving in about four weeks.

Alcap26 Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 My gap wedge is in need of some serious TLC and I do not want to get rid of it since I got my first hole in one with it so I am going to send it to them when I get the chance...too busy right now with other stuff. I will use TSG refinishing for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillypete Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 I have a new mission and I am hoping the gutter gang can back me... I want to get Chris to get some TSG hats made... specifically a Black Nike FlexFit with the golfer swing logo on the front and TourSpecGolf.com on the side and the swoosh on the back... The TW Nike One hat is a flex fit... I love that hat! SOOOOOO COMFORTABLE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
