I'm getting the senior discount these days without asking. When it comes to a 580 yard par 5, the odds of me hitting 4 good shots in a row are pretty slim. I've got a Ping putter I've used for years. My irons are a set of Lynx Predators I bought used, so I'm looking to replace those this Winter too. All in due time as money allows. FORE !!

Bong-Man Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Putting over frost with long-johns. If this keeps up I'm going to have to buy a box of those pink ladies balls to see in the snow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a dusting but so many guys looking on the fairway for balls was hilarious. I putted up to the hole and the ball was 4 times bigger than when it left the putter head Not a winter golfer me.

Ha Ha....glad I'm not alone. Funny thing is I seem to golf well in the cold. Only thing I can figure is that the 4 layers on top is keeping my torso from moving. Also haven't paid more than $22 bucks for 18 the last month. I can handle the cold but the wind sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a fully paid member at my club. £800 crisp notes a year for unlimited swing action. I don't play well in the cold OR wet. I can handle the wind. Our course is in 2 valleys so it can be breezy. Links courses? Forget it. I hate having tons of layers on. I just can't seem to get my swing going. Can't see me playing much now. At this time of year we look down to Spain or Portugal for rounds.

Bong-Man Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 A Dink a dink. Two shots in the drink ! Tiger is humbled. Had to love Nick Faldo's facial reactions yesterday to the PGA guy explaining the two stroke equipment violation penalty given to Harold Varner. Golf sure has some funky rules.

JTM Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 Well then, Tiger's back (there's a pun in there somewhere), what a great win. I watched the last two days undisturbed in my "man cave", after the win I went through to the living room to tell my wife he'd won only to find she'd watched the last half a dozen holes so she already knew. I wonder if a few whacks with a golf club from his ex missus when she discovered his indiscretions had anything to do with his low years. Now let's see if he can keep it up.

chillumpuffer Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 Yeah well done Tiger. I missed all of it as I was playing for the club in Warrington. I wasn't at all surprised as he has been playing well. He also plays Links courses well so I will tip him for the Open in Northern Ireland this summer.

Yes, I was glued on Sunday as well. Luckily, being much earlier in the day, I was able to watch it in peace and focus on the greatness of Augusta and of the moment.

Even if his body breaks down again and he doesn’t accomplish anything else, it was a great testament to what will and desire can achieve. I don’t expect anything else, but will welcome it - especially at Pebble in June! 6 hours ago, redrum said: Old Tiger Beats Young Cubs. That was great to see. Yes it was! The 12th alone was worth the price of admission. Amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about the weather over there in Northern Ireland, I think it's the first time sine the early 1950's the tournament has been played over there. I've not seen any TV coverage yet, it's on Sky Sports, I'm not a subscriber, highlights are on The BBC at 8pm. All I've got at the mo is BBC online text reports.

SuperDave Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 I was doing well in my Fantasy league for the Open but not as well now. There are 15 of us in our league and am currently 6th. I was 1st after the first round but things change like Ireland's son Shane. What a tourney he is having! Who would have thought Rory would have a self implosion from the very first hole. Stranger being in home territory for him! Just crazy. Impossible to bet on this game! Doing well this year with three wins in last eight weeks which puts me on the plus side for the year. Any win or dollars I get for remainder of season thru FedEX (1st or 2nd for our tourneys) will be a plus as I can't wind up in negative territory! That's always good.

Just got in from my Monthly Medal. Shot 73 so quite happy. In better conditions than in NI. Lowry's to lose I think. Would love Tommy to do it as he is a (relatively) local lad. Nervous times. But I think it's Shanes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats on the 73! Nice round. Edited July 21, 2019 by Walter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
