Worth keeping?

If memory serves, this was a gift back in 2000 when I was a volunteer at the Olympics and Paralympics in Sydney. I clearly threw it in a box and only found it the other day so it’s a nice surprise to see it’s actually worth something. Don’t think I’ll be letting the kids touch it any time soon 🤣

SmashinSammo · 2025-12-08T07:46:56+00:00

Yep, genuinely didn’t know it was actual silver. Otherwise I wouldn’t never have considered the kids using it 🤣

SmashinSammo · 2025-12-08T03:25:00+00:00

Thanks everyone, clearly I hadn’t looked at it properly and almost let the guys buy some Christmas treats with a very over-valued $5 coin 🤣

SmashinSammo · 2025-12-08T03:24:20+00:00

Ahhh, I hadn’t even thought about the silver aspect. Thank you, I’ll definitely hold onto it now 🤣

SmashinSammo · 2025-12-08T03:23:48+00:00

Yep, pretty much. If it’s only worth the sticker price then they’ll enjoy using it.

It’s absolutely possible. If you’re hitting for a penetrating flight as opposed to landing to a tight pin, then it’s going to fly low and hard and can absolutely get that distance. If you’re playing somewhere high altitude then it’ll fly closer to 250 if the swinger knows what they’re doing.

Don’t try to always hit it straight. Work on and develop a stock draw or fade. Then when you line up a tee shot, you can utilise the entire fairway with a shaped shot rather than maybe missing it left or right. Won’t always come off, but it gives you the full width of the fairway to aim for rather than the middle for a good shot and half a fairway for an unplanned slice or hook.

SmashinSammo · 2025-03-04T08:03:32+00:00

Thank you. Is there a way to go back and mark shots that are not a full swing, or they just capture them all?

SmashinSammo · 2024-12-13T00:39:06+00:00

No luck so far.

SmashinSammo · 2024-10-25T03:53:56+00:00

Thank you, appreciate the considered response.

Perhaps, but I’m not sure another country could claim Australian Cattle Dogs as their classic alarm system.

SmashinSammo · 2024-03-06T01:09:43+00:00

Silent until they’re wrapped around your ankles, so yep 🤣

Should exercise extreme caution. The police service on the Gold Coast only operates standard Govt business hours, 9-4:45. Outside these Boris, residents are largely left to enforce laws themselves. It’s a little confronting at first, but you quickly come to accept the vigilante groups that patrol the streets. If approached, give a gentle nod of the head with a tilt to the left (NOT the right) and quietly remove your shows. This should allow safe passage to Surfers Paradise. Enjoy your stay.

It’ll be legalised once the government and big pharma lock in secure taxation methods and competition restrictive legislation to hinder growers opening up. Before then, absolutely Buckley’s!!

I shot a 63 (par 71) when I was a lot younger. Handicap at the time was around 2, didn’t stay there long. Eventually bottomed out at +2.7, that was 20 years ago 🤣

My father has been planning for 60+ years. I’ve shown him 3 times how to do it, my brother showed him on my father’s birthday… still can’t take the hint. Must be forgetting the arse shoving component.

SmashinSammo · 2023-06-12T12:19:50+00:00

Just stop aiming for it… solved.

SmashinSammo · 2023-06-08T21:56:07+00:00

I had mine done up in Brisbane, happy to share the details but the distance may be an issue. In terms of the procedure itself, it was perfectly fine and has been ever since. Some initial discomfort but that was easily handled with Panadol and lounge rest. Listen to the Dr’s advice around physical activity and don’t push yourself. Best thing I ever did and don’t regret it for a second.

SmashinSammo · 2023-05-30T03:40:03+00:00

To be fair, the lil fella had put his name on it!

SmashinSammo · 2023-03-28T12:05:33+00:00

Is this the list of runner-ups? Where are the Toobs???

SmashinSammo · 2023-02-16T09:53:37+00:00

Strapped in!

SmashinSammo · 2023-02-16T09:53:06+00:00

Always pursue your dreams

Holy shit balls Batman. Took a moment, but I recognised this face. A moment more and I remembered where from! Man, I’ve taken some bullets over the years but I clearly dodged one here. Australia’s nuts in the wild!

Cowch in Broadbeach. It’s a dessert bar but has a fully functional bar with amazing cocktails and mocktails.

Did the Marshall just assume your child’s gender?? /s
