What's in your bag? What's your handicap? How often do you play?

I played in high school in the early 70's then took a break or two and then played several days a week until the late 1990's. I got burned out on it. When I quit I was a mid to high 70's to low 80's player on a relatively easy course.

I would play again except for one reason and one reason only -- putting. I wasn't the best putter in our group, but not the worst either. I just think it takes up way too much time for my liking.

I would be happy if once you hit the green just gather up and go to the next tee box. I bet you could play twice the holes in the same amount of time. It drove me nuts watching people study puts forever. I couldn't stand slow players. I liked hitting the ball and rolling on. No need to stand over the ball forever, just hit it and go.

I played hard for 4 years with my buddies I managed mid 80s, then took a 17 year break....I'm trying to get back into it with the wife. I bought some Wilson D9 forged irons, 2-3 ping driving irons, and a G 425 LST driver.

A little while back I re-gripped my old ping eye-2+’s (2-SW) and seem to hit them better than I was my Titleist irons. Just feel more solid. I have a vokey 52 degree gap wedge, Spider putter, 19 degree TM Rescue, & Calloway Epic Flash driver. Sometimes I’ll swap the 2 iron for a Launcher 3 wood, but I don’t play much like I used to… probably only 3 or 4 times last year. I can play to a 12 or 13 handicap from the blues. Not as good as I was once… but I enjoy chasing the little white ball around.

About the 7th grade my dad enrolled me in lessons. After about 6 weeks the coach called dad and told him to save his money. He said that I had both talent and potential but I had no interest. Seems that I either hooked or sliced every shot to a water hazard. There I wandered around looking at the water life. He said I was going to be an outdoorsman. He was right. I never developed an interest in team or individual sports.

I was all for the woods and waters. Still am but sometimes watch NFL with wife.

Totally agree. The idea has been kicked around for years but never seems to get legs

I tried golf, couldn't get into it...boring

True story, I played in 1 scramble my whole life and won...

I had no clue at the time but I had a stud female on my team, she made all our shots...looked like a pro

Ping G400s. When I hit the range and play frequently, low-to-mid 80s. Haven’t played much the last two years, so I’d need to work on it a bit.

A THF golf day would be fun.

Started playing right before Covid at age 45. I am wrong handed for golf and batting. Just got a new Sun Mountain C-130 bag. I built my putter and my driver, re-grip my own clubs for myself and friends. I tinker just like reloading. I have a GHIN and my handicap is 16.2 as of today, down from 22 in January 2022. I played about 120 rounds in 2022 but never practice.

I had a set of Ping Zing 2 black dots 3-LW. They were worth more to someone else than me and I wanted newer tech so I bought a used 8-year old set.

Driver: Ping G 9* set to 9.8* with a Project X Hazrdus Smoke 70g stiff shaft with medium grip.

3W: Callaway X series stiff shaft with medium grip.

Hybrid: Titleist 915H turned up to 23* to make it essentially a 4. Stock grip.

Irons: TaylorMade Tour Preferred MC forged 4-PW iron set with medium grips.

Wedges:
  • 52* Top Flight Tour CB with 10* of bounce and stock grip
  • 56* Top Flight Gamer Tour with 12* bounce and stock grip
  • 60* Titleist Vokey Spin Milled with 8* of bounce and stock grip


Putter: Frankenstein model: home built with an eBay head, a vintage Ping 5-iron shaft, and a Super Stroke 5.0 grip

My favorite ball is the Titleist Tour Soft but the Kirkland Signature version 2.0 plays like a 97% Titleist at half the price ($36 for two dozen). They are nothing like any other cheap (Nitro, Noodle, etc.) ball.
