CR Golfers


Guest Hal

Recommended Posts

So who on CR is a golfer? You don't need to be an avid golfer or even to have broken 100, just someone who enjoys the game. I know there are a few of us on here, so I figured we could find out who everyone is and what they play.

 

Questions:

What's in the bag?

Where do you play, in general?

What are your goals?

 

To answer for me:

Bag - Ping cart bag

Driver(s) - Ping G20 9.5 with S tour shaft, Nike MachSpeed 10.5 with S Fubuki shaft.

Wood - Ping G20 4 wood with S tour shaft

Irons - Nike Slingshot 4-PW, Nike Slingshot 3HL

Wedges - Adams Tom Watson GW (52) and LW (60)

Putter - Ping iN traditional

Balls - Callaway Warbird 2.0 and Callaway Diablo HX

 

I generally play at Village View, Minerva, Bridgeview, and Arrowhead.

 

Right now my goal is to build a more consistent short game to really take some strokes off my score.

 

So, who else is out there? I know Andrew, Miller, and DJ should be stopping in here. Please keep the random anti-golfer BS out of this thread.

I need to shoot lower scrores...in SC 2 weekends ago I was at 83 & 84 on mountain courses. Not the best but that's what I get for only getting out 3-4 times a month.

 

Me shooting a good ~50 foot drop at a mountain course in Asheville.

I don't know what I have in my bag, I play Top Flight distance XL and play medallion/lakes/shamrock/kinsale/wedgewood. Generally only have time for 9 and shoot high/mid 40's. Goals - shatter at least 1 driver a year and work on my short game. Would like to be low 40's.

Im using some used Golden Bear clubs I got from Play it again sports for $40 :D. My goal is to beat my father in law who has played for 40 years within my first year of playing. Based on my progress hes going to get beat around September. Along the way my son has gotten pretty good so its been some good father son time as well.

Bag: cheapo, cant remember the name, I think it has an eagle head on it.

Driver: Hippo something or other, its taken quite a beating and looks like shit

Woods: also hippo, havent taken nearly the beating that the driver has, I tend to use my irons more when I'm out on the fairway

Irons: No name cheapos, I mean so no name I cant even find them on the internet.

Putter: Odyssey White Ice #7

 

I play at Blackhawk every Monday in a league, other than that I dont get out as oftern as I'd like, but i've been to Champions, Airport, Echo Springs.

 

 

Overall I'm a pretty bad golfer, worst in my league, but I've been taking lessons and have seen improvement. I dont get frustrated though and just like to be out drinkin some beers and hittin some balls. Goal for the year is to be a bogey golfer.

 

 

I really shanked one good one day, my buddy bet me to play it where it fell.

I usually shot in the low 80's cause I can't putt to save my life. Not sure why, been Golfing since 1984... You'd think I'd of figured it out by now.

 

I usually golf National Road Golf Course or Wilson Rd. 9 hole course.

 

A couple of the more fun and tougher local courses I've played is Valley View in Lancaster and Pine Hill in Carroll.

 

Anyone use http://www.oobgolf.com to keep track of your scores?

Driver - Callaway Diablo Octane

Hybrid 3 - Callway Razr FX

Irons - Taylor Made Burner 2

Putter - Hand me down from my dad. Lol

 

Right now I am the epitome of incosistancy. My goal is to be able to keep my 9 hole scores under 50, and to develop a consitant, reliable drive and approach game.

 

I play wherever I can find someone to go with me. Living on the southeast side, I TRY to stay aroundabouts columbus.

Nope, just a thread to find out who everyone is. It doesn't matter what clubs you have, everyone hits something different.

 

Good to see there are more of us than I thought. We should try to setup an outing some day this summer.
