    Re: The OS Golfer's Thread!

    Yeah I use lostgolfballs as much as possible. Have been using them for years now, back when they were called ljbretail.com

    You can get a pack of 50 balls of PRO V1s for about $80 which is pretty good!

      They came 3/4 inch longer than standard, but I know a guy that repairs clubs so I had them cut down for nothing. Only had to pay for grips.

      Like I said, I received them and they were like brand new. Unreal deal. Even the guy that I have repair my stuff asked where I got them and about had a heart attack when I told him the price.

        So it's been a week since I've posted here. My swing has been broken... shot a 106, LOL, this weekend. So, had a coworker who played in college give me a lesson and wow, I'm taking divots but spraying everything right. My setup was all wrong. To sum it up, my hands were way far behind the ball at address. Hopefully I can come around.

          Hit the ball a hell of a lot better today after making those changes with my head and arms...shot a +19 50 but was making a lot better contact. I did still hit a few balls poorly and actually pulled some shots to the left, which I haven't done in awhile. Couldn't hit it well with my hybrids, but my 6-SW were working great.

            I used lostgolfballs and got 50 Srixons for I think $24 and the tub they came in was handy for all the crap you accumulate but don't keep in your bag (spike tool, spikes, a million oddball tees and ball markers etc)

              My boss gave me the go ahead to start entertaining clients on the golf course this summer, so naturally my first "client outing" will be tomorrow with my friend (who is still in the navy) and my old warrant officer. No, I won't get in trouble, as I think one actual client will be joining us so it will all be expensed. Got us the 9:15 tee time which strangely was only $39 as opposed to the normal $55. Also found out that my company has a tent at the AT&T National. I won't be there this year, but will probably be there next year.

              Been tweaking my swing a bit, and I am trying to finish higher, so far so good, I am getting more turn and striking through the ball to ensure I can finish high. So we shall see tomorrow. First time out in about two weeks.

                After a week of fairly low scores for me, I'm off to do some volunteer work at the Travelers Championship! Only my second year doing it, but it is so much fun.

                  I shot a legit 99 today!!! I've been building up to this all spring/summer. I counted every shot and played every ball where it lied. I feel so good about my game now. My playing parter eagles a par 5. He hit a great shot, but I was ecstatic today. Best round of the year for me. Getting my game back into form.

                    Re: The OS Golfer's Thread!

                    Went out this morning, and it was the strangest thing Ive ever seen. I got out there at 6 am for a 638 tee time, and since no one was there and they had a tournament at 9am they let me go out early solo. Shoot a 49 on the front nine, start the back nine bogey, par, and then on the 12th tee, I get the yips. Like Tin Cup, everything I swung was a worm burner to the right it seemed. I couldn't stem the tide, and watched this round get away from me. I tried slowing down, speeding up, not thinking about it. It was ugly. Luckily I was solo so I didn't have to subject a group to it. So from 12-17 it was awful, I stopped keeping score because it would've compounded things. Get to the 18th tee box and boom they are gone, hit a solid 3 wood, solid 7 iron and nail a 12 foot left to right breaker for birdie. I go to the range with 5 hit away balls I have and sure enough the yips are gone. I didn't feel any change to my swing at all either.

                      I'm always afraid to play by myself. I know if I do I'll get a hole-in-one and nobody will be there to see it

                        The new 714 line of irons from Titleist. They look amazing.

                          So after my horrendous 106 a weekend ago, I go out today and shoot a 77... the first time I've ever broken 80. This game makes zero sense.

                            I was looking into the Ping G25s at the end of the season, but those AP1's look good too. Given all I've spent already and the new gaming consoles this fall, my choice will probably come down to money, unless I am silly and use the credit card.

                              played for the first time today in about 5/6 months...no range (except for right before on the warm up mats). Started slow, shot a 55 on the front 9 (ouch!) but was able to rebound and hit a 42 on the back 9.

                                I haven't shown my face in here for a while, but I went out to the range last weekend for the first time since hurting my knee back in March. It wasn't great, but it was nice to be back out on a golf course.

                                I'm hoping to get a couple more practice sessions over the next couple of weeks then get out on the course for a round. Hopefully I haven't lost too much.
