OT: Golf Thread Part 2.1

[Cody Webster]

Well, since the new thread got lost in our shitty new transition, figured I'd try this again.

Cam Smith is having himself a Monday at Sawgrass. Guy has 1 par through 12 holes; 8 birdies, 3 bogeys and a par

I will catch the last few holes once the kids go to bed….

snow is already melting, gonna try to get out this week again. Trying to get 9 holes in each week. Really trying to get into single digit handicap by end of this year.

 

[Tripod]

Good finish

Too bad for Lahiri; would have been his first PGA win.

Was casually following the leaderboard, so didn't see Smith's great day.

We live about 10 minutes from TPC Sawgrass. I'm just glad it's over and the traffic is gonna ease up!

Make sure you guys remind me about two weeks from the Masters and we'll do the draft again.

What are your thoughts on these? The face on one of the wedges looks like it's scuffed but the zoomed in picture doesn't look that bad.

It honestly looks like pretty normal wear to me. Those black wedges lose their color like that pretty fast from what I understand. As long as the grooves still look legit there shouldn't be any issues with the playability.

Think I might pull the trigger on them. It seems like a pretty solid deal. Wanted to get someone else's opinion about those marks. Thanks!

@Cody Webster honestly, I heard the milled grind wedges were not very good in terms of spin. The milled grind 2 and 3’s are supposed to be killer. I hit the 3 at golf galaxy before - they feel good for a cast wedge. But I never played the milled grind before so I don’t know - just what I heard about them. Young is right, the black gets worn out fairly quickly.

That being said they look like good condition for the age and the price is awesome!

Hmmm, well now maybe I won't be pulling the trigger. I'll have to do some research. Thanks for the info

I played yesterday - broke 80 for the first time - shot 78! First hole, from 120 out, I hit the flagstick and it dropped to ~1’ from the hole. I knew it was gonna be a good day!

Spring Hollow. It’s any easier course, but thanks!

Haven't played there in ages! Hey, any time you break 80, it's a good day.

I signed up for the Workhorse tour this year since I didn't go with my membership this year. That should be pretty fun
