played tuesday for the first time in 10 months and shot a 92 at kierland in scottsdale. course is nice...what you know about air conditioned carts
anyways shot at 92 with 36 putts
first hole was a par 5 on in 3 and then 3 putted
but my short game is really rusty
i should be back in the low to mid 80s within a few weeks

I used to live right down the street from this course for 5 years and I never played there.

The biggest thing I wish I knew starting out was hitting down on the ball, and taking a divot AFTER the ball, not before... flipping at impact was such a hard habit to break.
If you can get lessons, do it.. its so much easier starting out learining the right things to do, rather than UN-learning the bad things, then relearning the right things...

Just got home from the bar after my golf league and after falling back in love with my putter and irons, we just had a nasty divorce.
I pulled the trigger on an Odyssey White Ice 2 Ball putter and the Nike VR Full cavity irons, as opposed to the Split Cavity since from the reviews I read there was much more forgiveness with the full cavity and still a decent amount of workability.
My bag has officially been revamped.... For better or worse

LOL My buddy flew in from out of town and we always play the same courses when he comes out. I wanted to switch things up this time around. San Joaquin layout is real nice, but I feel sorry for anyone paying full price for that course. Definitely worth $30 though, and they have margarita drink specials on Mondays.
My favorite lay-out was Hemet, really nice lay-out through the canyon setting, but the entire course is poorly maintained. grass really dry, absolutely no water, and the greens were not rolled. Must be struggling out there.

yeah, they can get away with their ridiculous prices because every other course nearby is twice as much. there are some really nice courses out in the boonies though, im not surprised the hemet layout was nice.Originally Posted by solesavage

Thinking about picking up a hybrid, took out my 4 iron, and now I need something for 210+ in the 1st cut or rough. Thinking about trying it out to see if I have better success out of the rough, vs the 5 wood I am using now.

Damn Bastitch, I was looking to get rid of mine, too. I need some Mizuno mp-58's or some Titleist AP2's. I'll admit you did get a hell of a deal, though. I paid more than twice that about a year ago...

Just Picked up some AP2's 5-PW, 1* Strong.. LOVE them...When I was getting fitted I also hit the MP's-58's and was actually looking to get the Mizuno's, but walked out with an order for the AP2's.. They were just the better fit for me!
Either way Miznuo or Titleist

Yeah, I considered going with pre-owned, but this deal rolled along and it's clearly the better deal.
I'm still just 10 months into this golf thing, and I just needed a set of iron's that were made in the last 8 years. Game improvements are still going to be in my bag for a couple more years. I don't have the skill to work the ball very well yet, so the compromise of loft and distance vs. control and touch will do for now.
