I guess purchased in a roundabout way but won some shoes of my choice on a Insta golf gear raffle page. Only purchased two tickets for £2 each having never done one before. Low & behold, I get a message that night followed by a call to tell me i've won a choice of Adidas Tour 360 or FJ premier. Gone for the Adidas as have two pairs already so i know they fit & are comfy etc. This was actually last week and i was telling my pal about it on friday. He then went on to purchase one ticket for £5 for a driver giveaway that evening and only bloody won. He's duly been and tested some drivers and plumed for a Rogue ST Max. Not bad having a £430 driver for £5.

I've been itching for a different putter for a little while now and the recent putter thread made the itch worse. I've been stalking a few options on ebay and have just won a Mizuno MP A304 putter for £69. With the way prices are at the moment, if I don't like it I should get my money back, especially if I sell around Masters time :LOL:.

Pair of Farah stretch chinos off County Golf. Only 13 quid. Bit of an unusual colour so I'll have to see what it looks like when they arrive - they've called it 'Rosin' whatever that means, looks like a sort of dark olive. Also may wear for non-golf or golf use depending on what the quality feels like. ?

I actually don't know anything about the name Farah. I bought one of their jumpers a little while back though and it was nice. ??‍♂️
They were a naff brand in the 70's and 80's. The words 'slacks' and 'Farah' go together and bring a shudder to anyone who was around back then. Fair play to them if they have managed a comeback.

Random reference, in the eighth season episode of The Simpsons (The Homer they Fall), which I think is 1996, Homer gets in to boxing after a medical condition stops him getting knocked out... anyway, at the end Moe save Homer from Drederick Tatum finally knocking him out with a "fan jet" thing and a dazed Homer asks, "are you an angel?" to which Moe replies "Yeah Homer, I'm an angel wearing Farah slacks..."

And if you don't watch The Simpsons, that's a wasted random reference :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

So anyway, they've been around a bit. (and I am a weird Simpsons anorak)

So, what you are saying is that @Orikoru is dressing in the style of Moe :oops: :LOL:

Arrived today 13 days after purchased, Well, that's Hermes for you.

Cobra F Speed 9.0 stiff flex for £24 inc postage to compare with the 10.5 regular flex I've been using for 10+ years.
Older one I bought for £25 in 2010.
New one is in as-new condition. Intending to take it out for a test-drive tomorrow.

A CK sweater for both casual and golf.

After going on my arse twice at windermere on the weekend I've ordered some spiked shoes - the new Adidas 360xt and some UA ones.
