I'm playing in an IGA 1 best ball event with my local pro and 2 of our buddies.

Now we are talking, I play golf twice a week. I did not start playing until I retired. I enjoy the great walk, the company and yes it a very humbling game. My daily driver is a TaylorMade R7.

I play with R7 irons

Love TaylorMade, I'm a loyal customer

Haven't played yet this year but I am about to start up again. I am usually hitting somewhere around 84-95. I don't play often enough to get better or stay consistent. I have a billion courses around me so I don't have a favorite one but there are some I enjoy more than others.

Greatest Game Ever Played! Hated that movie, one of the worst golf movies.
The best, ok second best (Caddyshack will always hold

) is Legend of Bagger Vance IMO

Where in SoCal are there a billion courses around? What are they like? What does an average round cost?

I did a Golf trip to Palm Springs and liked the town, did not like the golf. Always windy and the greens were rock hard. Could not hold a wedge. Ball would bounce 5 feet and roll off the back.

Did a trip to Tampa this year. The Golf was great but I'm thinking the humidity is too much for this guy. I'm a Canadian looking for somewhere to snowbird

Going to Phoenix this year, for a month of golf.

I have a custom fit set of Diablo forged irons and Taylormade woods.

Phoenix or Vegas have great courses but it got to be between Oct & April other wise it's to hot. Unless you are like me and play early morning.

FireCracker · 06-24-2013, 11:05 PM

Errr, I've been to the driving range twice and I'm a beast at putt putt

Does that count?

Lol obviously I was exaggerating. There are over 200 golf courses in the valley though so it does seem like and endless supply of them. There are a lot of really nice courses but then there are some that are just ok. Price depends on the time of the year and where you want to play. During season you can get a round at one of the lesser courses for around $50 and the nice courses can get very pricey $300 or more. It just depends on where you go and what time of the year it is. I usually play in the summer during the offseason and can play some really nice courses for $50 or less. It sounds like you went to a lesser course. Keep in mind some of the reason the prices in the summer are cheaper is they don't take care of the course as much as they do during season.

Pro blades and Adam driver
