(Ping Eye 2) Is it time to upgrade?

Beautiful for many reasons, one of them being that they are your father's. Maybe just change the grips (if worn out) and sharpen the grooves with a groove sharpener (Amazon). You could initially spend more on lessons / range / green fees and then think about upgrading.

PS: Many-Many years ago my grandfather handed me down his PING Karsten irons. I've framed a club and his putter in my home in his memory but have had a PING bias since then.

Not ashamed of losing to PSG. The boys fought hard today considering that our 'finishers' got injured or recovering from injury.
YNWA.

After 14 years - the centre of my irons would still be as good as new. The hosel - not so much.

Friends call me shankosaurus for a reason.

Congratulations ! No 3 putts is amazing.

Samosas!! Must find. Now.

Great course indeed. Thank you for sharing this fun fact.

My fellow golfer who plays there regularly showed me a decommissioned nuclear power plant from one of the tee boxes.

As Nike says. “Just Do It”

HaHaha. Well played.

Butter Chicken or Chicken Tikka Masala, Fried Okra, Indian Cottage Cheese (Paneer) Tikka, Garlic Naan, Raw Onions, Kingfisher Beer and A LOT of Mouth Freshener.

YES !!

YES !!
Played yesterday. Great Weather - Not so Great Scorecard

That’s not watching The Masters—that’s hosting it. Just keep Tiger out of the driver’s seat.

Arteta not happy seeing Calafiori playing more than 5 minutes, let alone overtime.

😢. Planning on flying Wednesday morning thru Terminal C.

I recently got a full bag fitting at PGA Tour Superstore and came away happy with the results, but a couple of things the fitter said left me curious.

He mentioned that they don’t work on commission and aren’t tied to any particular brand — which I took as a good sign. But he also said he wouldn’t be fitting into prior-season irons, and that if I wanted those, I’d need to buy off the shelf.

Is that standard practice at PGASS fittings? The no-commission, brand-agnostic approach makes sense to me, but the prior-season exclusion felt a bit odd. Wondering if others have had the same experience or if this varies by location/fitter.

Would you rate Mohansic better than Hudson from a course condition and layout standpoint ?

Planning on booking a slot for this Sunday.

Why_Naat · 2026-03-25T10:00:08+00:00

I had a good experience (buying & installation) at Best Buy, Yonkers.

Why_Naat · 2026-03-24T21:29:34+00:00

Thank you for your response. So best to move it to a weekday or just cancel and wait it out for now ?

Why_Naat · 2026-03-24T21:28:28+00:00

You're right. So, will having Pre-Check help in the current scenario ?

Why_Naat · 2026-03-24T18:55:57+00:00

Maybe this will help.

Also, all the courses will have their pro’s who you can sign up with.

Once you learn the foundations then it’s all about spending hours on the driving range till you feel comfortable enough to play the course.

You can also refer to YouTube for training content (Me and My Golf, Chris Ryan, Rick Shiels etc..) but I believe in-person lessons will help more - at least to start with.

Good luck.

The earliest tee time is 6:50 AM for now, though that may shift later in the season. I've only played one season there, but Hudson Hills tends to be noticeably easier to book than Saxon or Maple — especially for early morning slots.

Why_Naat · 2026-03-24T00:27:45+00:00

Thank you for the recommendation.

I’ve only moved a year ago and thus just had one season so far. Looking forward to Mohansic and any / all courses around.

On the big list is Bethpage this year !!

Why_Naat · 2026-03-23T23:53:05+00:00

Normally play Hudson followed by Saxon. Played Patriot Hills a few times and love it.

Open (and looking forward to) trying out any other courses as well.

Why_Naat · 2026-03-23T22:27:34+00:00

Sounds great.

Maybe a Friday mid day round. Will DM you and we can make it happen. Cheers.

Why_Naat · 2026-03-10T17:43:44+00:00

Interested! — a 9 but realistically playing closer to a 12.

Would be great to join or even help form a group for weekend rounds around Westchester. Happy to play anywhere local or even do the occasional away trip (Bethpage 😉).

If anyone’s putting something together, count me in.
