I bought today.....

First post on the forum

Just home from purchasing new irons went with Mizuno JPX HOT METAL. I tried loads at the fitting but these felt great and came in at 650 so a little under the budget I had in mind.

I bought JPX 921 forged and they’re great. Mizuno irons are up there with the best imo.

A Titleist Players 4 Plus StaDry bag. Again. As the previous one I bought was lost by Hermes. And when it finally arrived this morning it is the 4 Plus but isn't the StaDry so it needs returned

Got one last year, good bag, or will be when you finally get it ?

Golf pride mcc +4 grips. Going to be changing them myself. Wish me luck.

I've changed quite a few of mine now. I quite enjoy doing them. The biggest ballache is getting the old grips off and tape removed - A hairdryer is your friend.

As I want 2 tapes could I leave the original tape on and put new tape on that?

My 3rd Players 4+ StaDry in 2 weeks… hoping this one a) doesn’t get lost by the courier and b) is the actual bag I ordered…

Taylormade SIM2 Driver, 9 Degrees, Stiff Shaft.

Used - from a bloke that has more money than sense and in the last 2 years has gone Ping G410, Ping G425, SIM2 and now STEALTH - all brand new and just flogs the old one for £200 to make some money back.

So thats right, a barely used - almost new - SIM2 for £200!

My new “journal/log” arrived yesterday, really pleased with it and great condition for a bargain price ?? Started marking off the places I’ve played (there is also an A-Z course list at the back to check off) Any that aren’t in there, and international courses will be logged on a sheet and kept in the book ?

Ten years out of date?? Half of them will be shut down now.

That was the last year it was produced and can’t find anything similar (sadly everything is online) It’s a great book.

Please tell me that is you being obviously funny for a reaction ? Golf courses don’t close (or open to be fair) that frequently - and certainly not the ones I’ll be listing to play! Checked off about 80 so far and only 1 closed (which I knew about as it was owned by a relative) I’ve got a course guide book from 2001 with 4,000 listings and still very relevant.

Unfortunately the ones near me have. At least 3 that I can think of have closed within the last 5 years never mind 10.

Crikey that is a lot Sad to see courses go. It’s maybe more prevalent down South? I think they’ve closed quite a few municipal courses in Scotland as well. A lot of the courses I’m targeting to play are well established/open qualifiers etc so my oracle will (should) do the job ?

If you ever want to play Westerham GC, let me know. It's no open qualifier and a bit of a journey for you though!

Wow, Westerham GC looks a fab track ?? and certainly one for the list. Just been looking at it on the website. Thank you, very kind of you and I’d very happily host you at Silloth anytime you’re up this way. Just a short 6 hour drive for us ? I’ve never explored down that way so could be worth a short break.

That's why I'm stopping at my parents in the Lake District in July! ?
