Did anyone else recognize Angel Cabrera's Caddie at the Presidents Cup...... Thats right it is no other than the Big Break IV Team Europe Competitior Edoardo Gardino or "Eddie".......... http://www.thegolfchannel.com/23253/4079/ I almost yelled over to him that I saw Don Donatello in the...

Dan, isn’t it possible for you to dump the locked threads to the bottom of the list or discard them completely. I find it annoying that locked threads are always visually available when “shopping”. Mike

In trying to figure out how to post my range practice, I got playing around with older clips. We did a golf pilgrammage, 1st golf saturday, then sunday with this extra. Keep in mind: a. had to downgrade the quality to make it fit b. it is using a canon camera, no not a video camera, just a...

Been thinking and here is my annual Wish/To Do list for the Forum/Booking site. 1. Individual Billing -if you book for three RM members, RM bills each member; 2. Individual cancellation - if you book for three RM members, and one has to bail (legit) then let him/her cancel rather than cancel all...

Well I just got back from playing my first round in the R.G.A. golf league and I think I left a lot of people shaking their heads at my game or at least my lack of consistency:P. I had 2 doubles, 2 bogie's, 2birdies and one eagle:-) , I won 60 dollars for 2 skins and low net but I think I'll have...

Wow.. what a year.. My game has been rocking.. Won our CC and 2 weekends ago won a mens open.. Well I have to say as nice as those wins were yesterday I was a part of a team win that meant a lot to me.. My club won the anual Valley League.. The Valley League is a competition kind of like...

Well this is the 2nd hole in one on the forum so far this year. I got it a #8 at the Marshes last Thursday, May 3rd. This is my 4th overall and 2nd since Sept. last year. Hopefully I can get a couple more this year. Now I'm just getting greedy eh??? Oh well...you never know!!!

I starting thinking about this taking and extra club (or less club depending on direction of wind), and how it equates to wind speed. Trying to find some value from this information, I have a few questions that are left unanswered. 1. A:Is there a general rule for taking an extra club, like one...

Had this happen last round. The course I played had a number of opposing fairways, we were on #5 (405 yd par 4) and another group was coming down towards us on #6 (330 yd par 4). I hit my tee shot about 190 yards, missed the fairway left by about 10 yards. As I was playing with a family the lady...

I suspect that there might be several of you lurking on this forum and was hoping I could get some info from you. I am more than likely moving out to Calgary just after thanksgiving and was wondering what the golf scene was like out there? How are the prices/courses etc...? I gather that the season...

Was wondering when the course will be open and how it is looking this year. Heard some rumours that the greens came through the winter very well but haven't had a chance to drive by or visit yet. Comments???

If you are not aware, a Blog is a "web-log" or personal journal / diary. Users could each have thier own Blog where they could keep a golf diary or anything they'd like. Other users could then comment on blog entries. Do you folks think that would be something you'd be interested in?

I know what you mods are going to say.. this isn't golf related... but it is. I was hanging out with a girlfriend of mine who was visiting from out of town and we were walking around bored. So we went to get some ice cream and then I took her for a pedicure. She suggested I get one as well...

I worked in the backyard all day yesterday, and now have some large and painful blisters on the palms of my hand. Supposed to shoot tomorrow morning, can't say I'd be able to right now. Any home remedies out there???? :hissyfit:

Was anybody brave enough to play today in this frigid weather today ? Tomorrow looks warmer.

I admit it, I do... all the time. First I clean the toilet with ajax then flush about 10 times. Then I dip the head of my iron into the toilet, clean it with a tooth brush and then dry it off. Move onto the next club and so on. I used to do it in the sink but the sink would be filthy when I...

My golf game is HORRENDOUS!!!! I have never hit the driver this bad in my golfing career. I hit it off ot 7 tees today at Vieux Moulins and had to hit to hit provisionals on each of those tees!!! Ahhhhhhhh!!

Since the forum fun day where i easily would have posted a score of over 100 if i had properly kept track score wise my golf game has officially gone to complete hell. I haven't even breathed on the 70's since then with the closest being an 84 at the Canadian. It's like i've forgotten how to play...

Anyone else think they have a gorgeous swing? I’ve been working on my swing the last few weeks and it’s fantastic. Great tempo! It doesn’t look as mechanical as it did a few weeks ago. A lot more natural now. I watched a few clips of Ernie Els swinging on the golf channel and I think to myself,...

Bored on lunch today I decided to go hit a new R9. First of all, wow. This thing hits so much nicer than my SQ5500. I began wondering if I could break 300 with it but kept falling short (295-297). Is it a limitation or am I just not strong enough?

Go to maps.google.com... type in 'pyramids' as your search term.... zoom down and look just to the right of one of the pyramids... Wonder if anyone has ever tried to clang one off the pyramid from the closest tee box...

Looking around the web, it seems that some courses maybe opened in early March. I was hoping to maybe get a round in if possible. Has anyone played there in early March? Any recommendations for a course. Cheers.

Wondering if anyone is heading to Toronto or coming to Ottawa and would be nice enough to pick something up for me downtwn from a TGN.com member. Let me know if you can help out. Denny

Just curious. Almost 800 people entered. I'm way down in the high 300's. :hissyfit:

I played yesterday with a few friends, one of whom I know could play both right and left. Well, on the 18th hole, he decides he is going to hit 1 ball right handed and 1 left handed. Well, his drives landed about 5 yards from each other, a long way (270 yards) down the fairway. He the proceeds to...

Was looking for some good deals on clubs and other stuff and saw the site ******and I was wondering if it was a legit site? Because some of the deals they have are ridiculous

Who can tell me what this is the quickest. Come on anyone.

Was there an injury or was it just out of frustration? I watched Weir and Vijay at Crowbush last Monday... Vijay shot 66 on very little sleep and Weir shot 70 with four or five lip-outs. He was striking it great, but couldn't make a putt... not than an exhibition has any real meaning, but he...

This is my home course. I now reside in Ottawa. I've always wondered how they can increase their green fees. Everyone drives through Edmundston on their way to the Maritimes, but never seems to take the time to stop and play a great course that hosted the Canadian Amateur in 2002. My question...

I am planning on going to play this weekend, if the snow we just got didn't delay anything. I'm willing to drive anywhere. So if you're in for a nice game, let me know. It's always better playing in a group than trying to fit into another bunch. I'm a 16 handicap if you wondered. :wave

Ok you golf buffs, lets see who recognizes this place.

I've noted that GolfXtra had a discount on their memberships for next year. And several courses have emails out on discounts but some are not really discounts or not very much per green fee. I did see this but wondering if this is just all the time and not just for today to buy or not. ...

http://youtube.com/watch?v=5bchWNR_1l4 So cool, Ellen looks like she's got game. How about tiger. Bullseye. You think they sit it up so his normal swing would go through that point or do you think he could have hit any target at that speed with his drver

Actually pretty entertaining this go and lots of eye candy! Great seeing Sadlowski bombing it 400+ yards last night.

Can someone tell me what an Apollo shaft is? Call me crazy, but i have never heard of it. Dustin

Hi Guys, Life is always full of choices, but I think I have my priorities right. The other day I came home from work and was greeted by my lady dressed only in very sexy underwear, and holding a couple of short velvet ropes. "Tie me up," she purred, "you can do anything you want." :P ...

For the first time, I brought in a few drivers to test out at the Golftown in Kanata, hoping to figure out which of the two was giving me better numbers (and get a regrip while I was there). I couldn't believe the results....I wasn't getting any distance at all, even when it "felt" really good. ...
