One page of golf then BAM... photobomb.

Found a nice little weekly tournament last saturday. The greensfees are normally $26 for 18 but the "tournament entry fee" is $15 and you get a free round of golf, cash prizes for top 3 teams, played a 2 man best ball shot +1 and ended up in a three way tie for third. No playoffs, they just counted back... and I birdied the last 2 holes with 2 30 foot putts. The funny thing is we were joking around about how out of it we were on the 17th tee because the guys playing with us were ahead by 7 at -4. We were like, ok eagle then ace and we can tie if they go bogey double bogey. Turns out they won by 4, second place was even...

So finishing birdie birdie even when you think you're out of it can have it's rewards. Twenty bucks each, to be precise.

should i get a titeleist hybrid or a cleveland launcher.  anybody tried both?

does miniature golf counts?? If so, then that one I'm super good at!!!! but in the real grass..then count me out! did it once in high school, since that's part of our grad night...HORRIBLE!!!

I just hit my first golf balls last week! driving range for the first time.  made improvement already, but of course need more practice.. and maybe get my clubs trimmed down a little

i read a post here once as a joke i think, that you should be proud if your gf can drive 150 yd. or something to that effect.... opinions?

Cleveland launcher...going to be buying a new driver at the end of the season when they drop in price. Golf outing to start the friday, free golf and boos, does it get any better?

I don't know if anyone posted this yet cuz i didn't read them all but Warrior Custom golf will send you a free Hybrid and/or Lob Wedge for just the shipping cost. I paid $30 for both of them. I haven't used them yet but my brother got the lob wedge and he said it was good.

SHOT A 65 TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks to this thread - I'm going to the driving range this weekend.

This is my third year playing and I still suck haha.  Score in the low 100s.  

It's hard to tell, but has a single women posted in this thread? Don't they play golf too? My wife plays, but not as much as I do because of her schedule, but she was reading over my shoulder because she still has interest, and doesn't trust my advice. She plays a much more relaxed game than I do(even though she rarely gets high), and shoots in the mid nineties, bad day she'll break a hundred. Don't any of you take your girlfriends or wives golfing?

My father in law has a Taylormade Burner Driver and he let me use it. I hit the ball about 280 straight down the fairway. He looked at my wife and said well that swing just cost you a hunderd bucks.  It was the best drive of my life. I am going to try and pick one up at rockbottomgolf

Good luck Jonny hope they work out for ya, what are you planning on shooting?

shot my all time low today with a 74. i'm so stoked. only 1 birdie, but loads and loads of pars. i'm suprised i did so well considering it was about 103 today at the time i was on the course today. loved it, it gave my drives an extra 10-20 yards and i could put so much spin on the ball with my wedges.

my friend gave me a cleveland launcher 460 driver!!

woot.. tried it out on a executive course yesterday.. far but slices... gotta fix that..

tiger woods is back to square one. he should really try harder if he plans on having an actual comeback.

No my scores have been awful this year, however last time out I played a scamble with my wife on a crappy course and shot +5 over 75. I was happy with that.

I think I'm the only one who posted

My bf and I made a deal after we had been dating a while --- I would teach him to snowboard and he would teach me to golf.  We're both lefties so it's easy to teach each other various sports. 

I picked up golf fast and hit pretty damn far for a girl.  He usually wins longest drive for the men and I win it for the women.  There aren't usually any legit lady golfers in any of the tourneys we do.

I went to the range yesterday night to practice the new driver.

GREAT... good distance.. not slicing too much.. even had a little fade to it.

Anyone have one of those green reader/GPS things??

I'm wondering if I should get one, but not sure if its worth it.

lol, what kind of work do you do that you can play on Mondays?

I might try to make it out to Penderbrook or Virginia Oaks this weekend.. twilight..
