Okay, here is a place for the Golfers to talk about tournaments, clubs, swing help or thoughts.

Today is the Players Championship, which I think ought to be the 5th Major. Largest pot in the PGA. The daunting 17th, which seems to bring excitement every year. At least we will get to see Sergio blow up yet again.

I am ready to see some water balls!

Moved to PHX in December 2019. Posted here about it, but haven't been around much. Job is keeping me busy, as are all the exams I have to take.

I've passed the Securities Industry Exam and the Series 6. 63 is up at the end of this month. Possibly Series 7 down the road, but I'm tired of taking exams.

Figured if I was striping it with a badly mis-fit shaft, things would go well with the shafts I was fit for - so I found a great deal on some heads, and dropped them off at the club builder Thursday. Should have them tomorrow.

I still have my Apex 19 as a backup set, just in case, but my goal is to commit to these for the year.

Those are pretty. You must be pretty good. I have a buddy I played college golf with who is a 0.9 and doesn't even play blades. I tried Ping blades back in the day when I was a 2 or 3. I quickly gave up on them. Just simply did not hit the ball perfectly square in the face enough. Taylor Made P790 are a nice happy medium for me.

LOL **** no I'm not any good.

But for some reason, I hit these better than game improvement or players irons. Think it has a lot to do with the thin soles and the firm turf down here.

And like I said, my goal is to get better - these will certainly punish mis-hits, and my other clubs gave me little to no feedback. I will say that these are WAY more forgiving than what most people think of when they think of blades.

Sweet spot the size of a pen head. I'm in awe of how the tour guys from the 70's - 80's played with that shit.

I still have a set too. Got an old set of persimmon woods that I played with not to long ago. It was a long round but fun as hell hitting a 40 year old driver

Good for you.

I'm on vacation in the pan handle of Florida. I played a course the other day that is the Longest course in the state. 7,700 yards from the tips. I played it at about 7,000 and with winter fairways and being a little damp it was plenty long. Windswept Dunes is the name of the place. It was hard to get a read on because it's not in summer condition but it was a little rough around the edges IMO.

Tomorrow I'm playing Bay Point which was redesigned by Jack Nicklaus around 2005. Should be a good day.

This , but nothing else feels as nice as a well hit blade and I think growing up playing with blades( Muir field 20th ) does make you a better ball striker if you play a lot.

The first set of clubs I had were a set of Spalding Gene Littler's that I dug out of the old pump house when I was a kid. 1960 model there bout's. Didn't want to thin one of those on a cold day. Then I had a hand me down set of Spalding Elite's. Those are both blades. After that I was a Hogan guy. Now I play Mizuno's. The set of MP-14s might be the best blade ever. I still have that set but I'm playing MP-15s these days.

I'm going to use them on Monday when I play a course in San Destin called Raven Golf Club. Looks like a nice place. They've played some pro events there in the past. https://www.sandestin.com/golf/raven...m_campaign=gmb
Should be interesting.

I’ve always casually wanted to try hitting something like those or a persimmon wood that actually had a grip on them that wasn’t as old as the club. Imagine they are quite punishing but the only time I’ve messed around with them was with a slick and falling apart grip.
