Just finished reading an article on CNN and there was a mention that his wife is a Canadian girl from Mississauga. Not really relevant to anything but made me feel good for a minute.:):):):)

The last 3 years, i have been having really bad problems getting blisters on the heals of my feet. I have had top of the line shoes, new and my old shoes still bad. I was fitted for my shoes so it is not wrong size. I walk lots over 170 rounds last year and treadmill during winter. Anyone have this...

I think it's time that I drop the "John" handle but my creative juices aren't flowing. Anyone have any good suggestions for a suitable forum name?

I was at GT today and tried this glove...the sales guy sprayed the grip and the palm of the glove with water and let me hit balls...no slip at all...very impressive. A must have in wet weather. I think they go for $30. http://www.hirzl-web.com/en/golf.html

What exactly are you looking to achieve in early rounds of golf? With courses just about to open, and likely not cutting their grass the first two weeks they are open + April showers further dampening the course, are you just trying to get swings in, or are you playing for a score? For me,...

Hi everyone... I have been to GT lately trying out several drivers and amd wondering what people think of the data provided by their computers... I am not a BIG hitter, but routinely drive the ball around 250 and a few time a round might get out to 260+... At GT, I have to swing out of my...

With the Masters tournament approaching, what do you think you'd shoot at August if you were lucky enough to play a round? From tournament tees, tournament pin placements, 12+ stimpmeter ... oh and in case you don't know how tough the course is, here's some info: ...

Well I haven't been on this site in a very long time. I guess that's what winter does. Well, my dad gave me a Callaway Big Bertha Diablo driver (on one of my old TM Burner shafts). Just adds to my arsenal of drivers. Can't wait to get out and "release my inner Diablo" hahaha. Well, see you around...

Hi guys Anyone know if UPS is still charging brokerage fees these days on orders from the US? I had to pay $40 in brokerage fees at the door on delivery a few years ago on my son's skis from the US.

Had to share with other addicts. I told people I work with today and got raised eyebrows. Anyway.... I decided to play Canadian post work last night. At first was going to play 9. Got there at 5 and was only one willing to golf in 4 degree weather. So I head out solo. Holes 1-15, rather...

So a lot of us are getting out this weekend in the valley. Just for fun, anybody want to post what they think they will shoot for the first game of the year. I think I will play in the 90's for my first game at Presscott. Anybody else?

I am currently in college in a Professional Golf Management Program and for one of our projects, we have to administer this survey. If you are interested, please answer the 14 questions, it should not take you much longer than 5 minutes as they are all multiple choice or YES or NO questions. ...

Someone else started a thread on the Tavistock Cup and its relevance/importance, and obviously we are getting close to The Masters which is my favourite event of the year... BUT I would love to see a sponsor step up and offer $10M top prize for a new tourney... I want to see a team format,...

My first time volunteering at a golf event and having a ball. Our info booth is located between First and Tenth tees and everything today(Wednesday) was very laid back and the players were courteous and friendly. We park at a local church and get a shuttle to the course. I took a walk through the...

Having a discussion the other day with a buddy and we talked about the % of golfers that play under 100. It seems that only 5% are under 100 but I would say about 90% of peopel I play with are under 100 and then some. What gives with these stats and where do they come from. Just curious how they...

Does anyone know if it's possible to stream the Golf Channel 24/7 not just when there's a tournament? I know a few good sites for the tournaments but I would like to watch Feherty, The Golf Fix, etc. Thanks,

Just saw the first flock of geese heading our way today. Surely spring is just around the corner. Mother nature is never wrong( eternal optimist when it comes to golf):)

My clubs were stolen from my apartment last weekend(dec 17-18) and I am trying to recover them... If anyone hears about or sees them being sold could they please get in touch.

Can you please clean it up, it's getting a bit stinky.

So, I'm playing some older Mizuno MX-15's which I love, but last year I noticed I had lost 5 yards a club. Some of it is me, for sure as I get older and fatter ( Shann, shut up) but I digress. Anyways, I'm very excited as I brought them into GT yesterday to get them re-gripped for the first time...

Just wondering if there are any avid runners on this forum. I started running at the end of last summer and got hooked. Sure help drop almost 20lbs. By the end of the golf season I felt great, but the golf swing felt a lot different with a 'new'body and struggled in the fall. I did however shoot...

What courses are on your wish list in Canada? For me, Rocky Crest The National Le Maitre Oakmont (288 yard par 3 lol) I'd like to play 1 or 2 of these courses in 2012. :)

Pretty excited as I thought my best for the season was long gone (a 77-par 72, and 76-par 71) but today I shot an unadjusted 75-par 72. 16 pars, a bogey and a double. Only my 2nd full round with my new Wilson Di11's. Sorry for the brag but man I hope fall goes on for a while!!
