• Hole in One

    I was playing in our local Chamber of Commerce Tournament on October 17 at Emerald Bay Golf Course. On the 16th hole, a 177 yard par 3, I hit a 5 iron that ended up going in. I won a Rolex watch and a trip to Vegas. I was using a Pro V1. Ironically, it…

  • Re: Tour Yellow Pro V1/V1x

    My biggest factor is the surroundings.  I've used yellow in the summertime, but depending on the quanitity of yellow and brown leaves on the course, I may play white in the fall.

  • Calm but windy day

  • Re: Thank you!

    Out of curiosity, what was the repair?  About a month ago, my bag was knocked over before a fundraiser scramble.  With no padding under the driver headcover, I found a big dent on the top of my club head.  It made me sick.  The driver is that of a competitor…

  • First Hole in One

    Walked up to the hole. Pulled out a 9 Iron. Hit the ball as hard as I could. The sun shined across the green and didn't see it land. It wasn't on the green so I got worried. Walked over to the pin and sure enough it was a HOLE IN ONE!
