CountDorkula Posted April 2, 2010 Posted April 2, 2010 My golf nerves are starting to come about again, going out for the first time this year today after the office closes early. Been hittin the golf dome the last couple of tuesday's (mostly for the all you can eat spaghetti for 3.99) There is just something about this time of year that gets my blood boiling. That first tee shot always is a giant relief. Usually followed by a lot of vulgar language Here's to a summer of good golf good beer and great weather Oh and by the way, looking to buy a new driver, anyone with input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks! I don't use a driver, but a tip for buying any club is getting it fitted for you. Don't just pull one off of the rack at Golf Galaxy and call it good. Have a pro determine what length and lie angle you need. Another to a summer of great golf!
buckeyemike Posted April 2, 2010 Posted April 2, 2010 You're preaching to the choir, man. I love golf as well. As far as the driver is concerned, see which driver matches your swing. Levi's right on that call. Here's to another summer of golf!
Hirly5 Posted April 2, 2010 Posted April 2, 2010 Tonight is my first night of golf too. The Friday Night Mixer. Its a 4 man best ball. Its a beautiful day/night to drink a few beers and chase the little white ball around.
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted April 2, 2010 Posted April 2, 2010 I hit the range for the first time yesterday. Might bring the clubs to the In-Laws to get my first round in around their place before the weather craps out next week. League starts in 3 weeks...
5 Wide Posted April 2, 2010 Posted April 2, 2010 Played for the first time yesterday, wearing shorts in Buffalo on April 1st was awesome. Shot an 85, pretty happy with that for not touching a club since October.

Chef Jim Posted April 2, 2010 Posted April 2, 2010 You must not be married to a B word like I am. Duuuude. That's just wrong.
dpbillsfan Posted April 2, 2010 Posted April 2, 2010 Played about 5 times so far this year. Got to play at a Nicklaus designed course last week in Panama City Beach, FL. Greens were like putting on a sloped pool table and the bunkers were deep. Shot a 94..... But had a great time doing it.
Omar Little Posted April 2, 2010 Posted April 2, 2010 All-you-can-eat spaghetti ... for $3.99 ... at a golf dome. That sounds unsettling.

I've played Nicklaus-designed courses in California and South Carolina in the past. Both were great. He does a hell of a job.
dpbillsfan Posted April 3, 2010 Posted April 3, 2010 I've played Nicklaus-designed courses in California and South Carolina in the past. Both were great. He does a hell of a job. If I could have stayed out of the bunkers I would have saved at least 6 shots, but man they were everywhere. Nicest course I've ever played for sure.
CountDorkula Posted April 5, 2010 Author Posted April 5, 2010 Played a terrible round on firday. Could not put more than 1 hole together start to finish. Either would have a good rive and screw the approach. Or completely miss drive and have to play from the rough / shrubbery! Bad day all around, at least the beer was good!
KD in CA Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 Bad day all around, A bad day of golf? That's just crazy talk.
BUFFALOTONE Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 Played for the first time yesterday, wearing shorts in Buffalo on April 1st was awesome. Shot an 85, pretty happy with that for not touching a club since October. What did you shoot on the back?
BUFFALOTONE Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 I live in So Flo so I play year round. Played PGA National (Champ Course) threw up an 89 from the tips. Was a tough day, but the course played nice. OP, I have the R9 TP and like it, not love it. I do not shift the weights because I like to draw and fade it myself. All my gear is Titleist except my driver and putter. But I may step into the new Titleist, I like to demo a club for a few weeks before buying and I am starting to like it a lot. Shaft is very important in a club and the right weight and stiffness mean all the difference (man that sentence just sounds wrong). Anyway good luck and hit em strait!!
5 Wide Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 What did you shoot on the back? (rimshot) Nicely played
McBeane Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 Some of you may have seen on the shoutbox, I am getting a new set of Nike Slingshot 4D's and I am especially excited as I am moving to Iowa this summer and joining a country club out there. I plan on golfing at least 20+ holes daily this summer. Gotta love being 21 and single Hope everyone has a good spring/summer of golf with some great beer and friends
Hirly5 Posted April 6, 2010 Posted April 6, 2010 Hirly where ya playing? Bide-A-Wee in P-Town. Bullet proof vests are optional.
