| Golf Season!
Who's excited for the new golf season?
this is the first season in a while i'm totally pumped about getting back into it, been to the range about 8 times so far
Picked up a Odesey[sp] 2 ball and a White hot putter to try out, see which one i want to use
picked up a Nike SQ1 Tour 10deg today at golf town
also got 2 boxes of dope balls for free, 1 box of Nike ONE's and another full box of the Callaway HX Blue's
OH, and i bought the same shoes Tiger wears on the tour, they are AMAZING, they feel so freakin good when i'm swinging i love em
anyone else feelin it?

| Re: Golf Season! You bought 2 odssey putters? Baller! Have you hit with the callaways? how do you like them? Nowadays I only use Noodles.
I recently picked up a Ben Hogan 3 hybrid. Methinks Benny is going to be gone now that Callaway owns them. Golftown had this nice Ben Hogan with the adila green shaft for 79 bucks. waht a deal.
I cant wait for the season! Btw, I suck and am going to try hard to break 90 this year

Ya man I am pumped for the season. I was at Golf Town in January and bought two boxes of the Nike SFT2 Long and Soft baby . I was going to buy a new Nike bag but they seem so overpriced. eBay seems like a good route for golf bags actually if you've ever checked. I don't have a carry bag I have one of those big assed bags meant for using with a pull cart thing (which I will not use). I just carry the big frickin bag around the course lol - it was a gift.. But yea time for a new bag. Also looking at gettinga Taylor Made 3 and 5 wood to complete my wood set.
I am pretty pumped about this year. Last year I didnt play nearly enough (1 or 2 rounds/ month).

I am pretty pumped about this year. Last year I didnt play nearly enough (1 or 2 rounds/ month). | the R5 fairway woods are a special buy at golftown.ca right now. and if you're looking for a new bag, check this one out. i will probably splurge and buy a tour bag within the next few weeks.
anyone used the cleveland hibore? it seems i cant take a BAD shot with that club... only $198 right now... total steal considering my departed callaway from last season needed tons of concentration and a prayer before every shot. where do you play mostly?

My season is already done with another wrist injury. Was testing out my new Orlimar driver for the season, bombed a few nice drives and felt instant pain. Its for sale in the buy/sell btw. Hope you guys have a better season.

I'm actually not in the market for a nice tour bag. Looking for a light weight but functional carry bag. I will check out the R5 next time im at Golf Town. Thanks for the suggestion!
I am from Abbotsford. I play most of my golf at Ledgeview.

2 weeks from now me and my buddies made reservations for our first round of the year at Northview, we went there last saturday and it was AMAZING, i really wish we could have played that day, we only hit up the range though

redline - the link i sent was for a stand-bag. its $149 and looks similar to last years tour bags. its a damn good price for a damn good bag. not everyone wants a $350 leather bag, but everyone wants the quality.
i've never played ledgewood... i have a thing for #2 a redwoods, so when i'm in langley thats where i play.
hondaracer - i demoed it at golftown and it seems great, i was consistent as far as distance and control but when i go onto review sites and read reviews there were a lot that said negative things. its only $198 right now so its not much of a risk. im torn between the orilimar that rb has for sale and the hibore. hmmm.

the weather is getting better and better. but the next couple weeks i think are going to be crap starting tomorrow. I wanted to get a buncha new stuff this year but i learnt over the years to not tinker too much.
i just got some ping i5s last year and i might get a new putter this year but other than that im keeping everything the same.
do we have enough people for a couple tee times somewhere sometime soon ?

The greens are very deceiving! Lots of hills, 2 holes where you have to shoot uphill over a gully (175ish par 3 with the green right at the edge of the gully, and the other one a little shorter). Also 2 more holes where water is a factor. It's a par 72, you guys should check it out one time if you're ever out here.
Yeah you're right that is a stand bag haha and it is a good price but I don't really like white. I am gonna bid on this Nike one I have been watching on eBay.
Thanks tho.
Yea we should have a RS Golf tourney!!

If you guys are on Facebook and are looking for some golf games...
Look for the group "Weekly Golf"
Its mainly a core group of us looking to play every sunday...
but its open for people to join who want to make up additional 4somes with others in the group (if you happen to not have enough players)
