Thread: Any Golfers Here??

I played for about five years I guess, in high school and the year after, but since then I have pretty much become restricted to playing golf in my living room with an invisible club, ball, and golf course due to money and time constraints. It's not as rewarding but I've at least erased my handicap I never averaged better than the low to mid 80s even when I played a lot

Still, I love to play when I get the rare chance. There's something about golf that keeps me wanting to go back for more

Not positive but the hybreds I think have to be plugged into an electrical outlet after each round.

I've played these for a few years.
I'm not the biggest fan of the regular hybrids, the looks on them doesn't sit well with me.
No arguing their usefulness though, but for me the Titleist hybrid irons are a nice compromise.
They look very much like an iron at address, but still performs pretty much like a hybrid/wood.

Cart Girls?

Anyone else playing with the new Foo King Long golf balls?

I've seen something that looked a lot like that - I think it was called a driving iron

Here's a picture of a driving woods



Slartibartfast, yes that could be what keeps lots of guys going back for more. Personally I think the reason I go back is just to remind myself that I have no game. But what you said reminds me I was going to recommend this book to you before you went and got married and had kids:

Hybrid irons are an iron that looks like a small fairway wood. Almost like a mini driver for the fairway. My only hybrid's are the 3, 4, 5, 6 irons, (The ''distance'' irons). The 7 and up cannot be hybrid's because they're meant for loft.

Just starting to get back in the game. A couple of years ago I broke my neck and then shoulder surgery and I havent been able to really swing a club. Got tired of waiting for it all to get better so I went out and bought me some clubs and am ready to play. Played alot before the injuries and hope I can pick my swing back up.

I play a set of Nike Ignite irons, a handmade 1 iron, and a stiff shaft Sasquatch Driver. Haven't played in a while...maybe Lynn should come back down to Atlanta

Just realized I never shared this. It's an absolute cannon. The head itself weighs in at about 207 grams or around 7-9 grams more then most driver heads. Geek Golf No Brainer. Lofts to a true 8 degree mounted on a 2X flex House Of Forged shaft.

Really nice driver bro but heck yea I'm ready to hit the courses!
