No home course for me, I have friends that belong to different clubs. However, I did play Congressional Blue course a couple weeks ago, shot 78, greens were tough.

Not as good as you guys, but I do usually keep a 7-9 index (approx) but I don't consider my "home" course as part of my index which is probably closer to 3-5. I don't have an official handicap so don't crucify me guys.
Here's my stuff: Ping G25 10.5 with Graphite Design BB S +1/2 inch swingweighted at D8 Ping K15 3 wood S flex swingweight at D3 4 and 5 Iron Mizuno MP something forged cavities (I actually don't know LOL) 6-pw Mizuno Blades. All irons on Rifle 6.0 at D3 54 and 60 degree Cleveland wedges at D6 with low bounce (I usually play cheap courses with lots of tight lies, hardpan, and thin sand) Ping putter with a whole lotta lead for headweight. Ball: Top Flite XL Distance yellow balls hahahahaha Seriously, the ball. Statistically I don't score better with Pro V1 or Callaways so why bother playing 5$ golf balls when I can play with 75cent golf balls at the local munis? Ugly yellow balls because most guys at the munis don't like to steal yellow balls. I noticed that I lose a lot less balls now that other guys don't pick up my balls. |

Doc, how's that BB shaft doing for you? Do you like the flight? I hear its quite low. I've been using the DJ for quite some time and the ball is getting too much air time and no roll at all.

The BB shaft is a low spin shaft for sure hence the 10.5 head. I think I can get 10 yards or more carry if it would just go a little higher. I'm thinking I might try a DI shaft with a 9.5 for comparison.

I have 2 employees who golf, both of who play with me on weekends and Tuesday mornings when they don't have other things going on. Everybody else doesn't even want anything to do with golf and leave us alone those days. Everybody has some days that they just go and do what they want and we are happier for it. As long as things are getting done in the amount of time that they need to be, people can have the time they want to do things.

On top of that, for Father's Day, I got my old man some time with my instructor, and that is this afternoon. I figure I will venture out and see how things are going an hour or so in, and then try to take some money off of some of the guys I find out there. Have to get the game in shape to win the member/guest event that I have this weekend so I can get to go play Pinehurst for free in the BMW event they have there this year. |

Short game is what I'm working on tonight, if my father and I play, I will be putting myself in the worst possible spots around the greens just to be sure that I'm capable of what I think I am. Last weekends city qualifier, I had 0 putts and 3 birdies on the first three holes. 2 chip ins and one drained from the sand. I couldn't repeat that performance again for a while |

WOW you guys are pretty good. Been playing for about 12 years or so but struggle to break 80. (only 4 times so far) Unfortunately, here in the North East, we only get to play from April to October. Bethpage State park is 10 minutes from home so I get to play there quite often.

Home course: Mission Hills Shenzhen and Dongguan 12 courses
I play mostly the Faldo course at the Mid Valley Clubhouse which is about an hour drive each way. Yes I have to drive an hour to get to my golf course lol fml. I actually live very near (5 mins drive) from the best golf course in Hong Kong at The Hong Kong Golf Club in Fanling where the UBS HK Open is played. Sad news is it cost roughly $2M usd just to step foot in it.

I've been playing golf since I was roughly 12 years old. My best index was while I was playing in College, that was a +2.8. These days, I play at least once a week but practice 2-3 days. I play a lot at my course in Charlotte with a current index is a +.1. I didn't play any of the events this year but I usually try my luck at the USGA qualifiers. Being fairly new to Charlotte, I've never played in the City AM but I've also heard that is a good tournament.

Update:
I do not have a golf bag. I gave my like new golf bag to my future stepfather for father's day. He went to play golf with the bag, and he is really happy with it. I would like to buy those white Ping Tour bags. I love those things. I've seen Gxx white ping bags for $100. Planning to buy one (if still available). Quote:

Posted this in the recently purchased thread as well, though I think this will also fit here.
Not my exact putter because it hasn't shown up yet, but this is what I bought myself for getting my handicap back to a + |
