OT: Golf Thread Part 2.1

[trostol]

I had a putter fitting over the weekend - I was blown away by how technical you can get to truly evaluate the stroke quality, roll quality, etc. It used Quintic software and I went through about 10-12 putters with various loft adjustments before finding the right match.

Ended up pulling the trigger on an Odyssey White Hot OG Double Wide. Should be here in a month. Can’t wait!

see..you are doing it all wrong...you just need

Where did you go?

Where did you go?

Modern Golf in Mississauga/Toronto

I had been there several years ago when I was fitted for my Ping S55s. Just a really well run facility with no pressure or upselling. I had my eyes on the Evnroll ER2V and wasn’t pushed towards the higher priced items. It was all about performance and the best fit. So I ended up spending about $150 under what I had budgeted for.

Awesome! I want to get fit for a putter as well. I worry about options for lefties tho

I'll let you know how good everything is tomorrow for the four hours I get to spend on the grounds before it rains

RIP @Cody Webster . Hopefully you made the most of this morning.

Luckily we got in at 8:30, so we got about 3 good hours in. Disappointed though...waited 2+ years for this and only got a few hours inside. Luckily we grabbed merch around 11, because once they closed the grounds, they also closed the merch store. If I went there, only got a few hours in, and got no merch, I would have been very upset. Buddy got some good pics though.

Noice I'm still hugely jealous. Here are a few questions I hope you would answer at your leisure:

- What was your biggest shock about the course in person compared to on TV?
- Did you eat one of each type of sandwich? Which was the best?
- What merch did you score?

Biggest shock: the undulation of the greens. You can't tell from TV, but in person, the hills and breaks in the greens are just nuts.

Sandwiches: unfortunately, I only had the breakfast sandwich since we got kicked out at 11. The breakfast sandwich was kind of underwhelming. I really wanted to get a pimento cheese sandwich, and was going to on our way out, but they wouldn't let you get anything else.

Merch: I got myself a hat, two short sleeves shirts and a long sleeve.

It's been 2+ years in the making and since the Masters is so awesome, looks like it'll be a 3+ year story. They are letting us Tuesday practice round goers the opportunity to buy the same tickets for next year.

Nice little touch to give you a chance to go back. You pretty much can't afford not to do it.

I have a buddy who went a few years ago and brought a couple pimento cheese sandwiches home with him on the plane to eat later.

I was not expecting to get an invite for next year at all. I was a bit disappointed that we only got 3 hours, but was grateful to have gotten the opportunity to go. Now that I heard we'll be able to go back next year, I feel a lot better. The at that point in time wife will not be pleased

I was going to grab a pimento cheese sandwich when I got my breakfast sandwich and beer, but since it was only 9am, I figured I'd get one later, that never happened.

The one tshirt I got has the pimento cheese sandwich on the back of it.

Once the tournament starts, I think we should hold our discussions in the draft thread, just so we don't have to skip between two threads.

What about the people that weren’t involved in the draft?

I’m a nobody here but probably best to just come back to this thread and close the draft thread.

I'm taking Friday off to watch. I have too much work on Thursday to do. I may go golfing on Friday and watch on my phone in the cart...we'll see.

I don't care which thread it's in, just don't want to have to go back and forth.

Sounds like an awesome albeit short-lived experience!

We need to use the draft thread throughout the summer. That's why I didn't want two f***ing threads. It would be better to close this one and just use that one.
