Playing Thursday with my dad
I started to lose my form about 90 balls deep
I want to say something so badly...
I just picked up a new TaylorMade hybrid #4, it is the Burner Superfast series with the white club head.
I've golfed my whole life, but I've never hit a club like I've hit this one.
No matter what I do with my swing, this thing goes straight as an arrow, around 220 yards every single time.
It is like $150 bucks at every golf store right now, and I highly recommend it as well as the whole series of hybrids.
I can't get into hybrids. I hit my 3-5i just fine. Nice ball flight, lands softly and stays put when I want it to.
However I only hit my 3i about 215-220. 4i is around 205=210, at the current 60* temps and no elevation change.
I'll get some more length as the temps rise and I get my swings in.
Yeah so I am done with golf for a while. Hit well over 100 couldn't do anything right, probably some of the worst I've played. I just gave up after a 10 on the 8th (started on 10).
Also add golf to the huge list of things I hate doing with people. Played on my own for the back 9, took maybe 2 hours, probably more like 90 minutes. Hit the front 9 get stuck with a threesome, foursomes ahead and three hours later (plus 30 minutes waiting for the groups to tee off) we're still not done.
Basically that's it. Instead of playing I will get some lessons.
The end.
I lost my golf bag in my move. Not sure what happened or if it got stolen or if I'll find it at my brother's house or something in a few months. But I had to go get new clubs. It was a pain **********, but I may play tomorrow with the new set as I have a work-related outing on Monday at a very nice club and don't want to make an ass of myself.
I bought:
TM Burner Superfast 1- and 3-woods
Callaway X-something or the other irons, 4-SW
A cheap 60-degree wedge (TM also)
Odyssey mallet putter
And a bag
I got a halfway decent deal. We'll see if I can hit these things.
