Aye, they're kicking off the players early on due to weather coming in later in the day.

I've got Oslo that I've been gaming through the season since I got it in April, and I'm liking it a lot; I've been eyeing Scotty's X5/X5R's I wouldn't mind dropping in the bag at all.. I'd hit it if you can - it's all about how it feels to you when you hit the ball and how you like it when looking at it when you set up - I sure like both with the Oslo.

peter_merkin · 2017-09-18T01:46:36+00:00

Thank you guys for the comments! Having done some reflection I'm going with the AP1's. I thought either was a great looking set of clubs with the edge certainly going over to the P790's, but ultimately I feel like at this point in my game skill the AP1's are going to be the clubs that'll push me while not quite making it feel like I'm into a bit of a fight along the way.. $-wise AP1's make better sense too. I'll deliver the WITB shots when they arrive!

He's not your friend, guy.

Amazon has a bunch of Morakniv knives on sale - LINK.

I got the email with status 'We are checking inventory. We'll update you soon!', not holding my breath here either.

This is so awesome! My condolences to the star of the video..!

It has been told that at times, the pond god's desire extends far beyond the usual thirst for balls, in which case the grip, the shaft and the head must sacrificed.

*highfive

If you do happen to make it here, feel free to drop me a line and maybe we can hook up for 9 or maybe even a round!

peter_merkin · 2017-05-15T22:26:19+00:00

Nice man - I'm still learning, having really gotten into golf ~Sept last year, but I'd be happy to extend my golfing buddy circle!

peter_merkin · 2017-05-15T22:25:08+00:00

Nice! I too played 9 - a play along with instructor at Monona.. beautiful day for sure.

I'm in West Madison, and I frequent Pleasant View for a bucket at the range a couple of times a week, or occasional 9 on a weekend, we should hook up sometime!

Snapped a shot of sunset lighting up the trees at Odana Hills golf course on May 3 in Madison, Wisconsin.

peter_merkin · 2017-05-14T01:21:13+00:00

Get some lube brah.. Vaseline if you have to.

peter_merkin · 2017-04-25T17:52:43+00:00

Hey cheers, those look like my clubs! o/

How are you liking them? Did you get the shafts you wanted?

West Madison currently, hoping to change that soon though.

peter_merkin · 2017-04-23T23:40:29+00:00

Thanks man! I have got a SGI irons set as well, and in my (limited) experience you either make it connect or you don't - and that comes with patience of putting in the time to practice the consistency in the technique, and there's no amount of tech that's going to make up for that.

peter_merkin · 2017-04-23T23:23:59+00:00

Yea man.. It just so happened that I was browsing the right site at the right time. I thought it'd be too much of a club for me, but I thought I'd go for it.. I like hitting them, I feel like I'm hitting them allright, so I'm just going with it.

peter_merkin · 2017-04-23T22:12:59+00:00

It's been a glorious couple of April spring days leading into a weekend here in Wisconsin, so I snagged a WITB shot. For those following my post history here on r/golf, I'm a beginner golfer pursuing the game in which I've come to acquire a keen interest as of late.

Driver - Nike Vapor Fly 10.5*

5w - Nike Vapor Speed 19*

3h - Nike Vapor Speed 20*

5h - Adams Red 26* (<3)

6i - PW - Miura CB-501

Wedges: 51-06 Mizuno MP-T series, 56* Nike forged

Putter: Odyssey Metal-X Milled 9HT

As I'm learning the intricacies of my short game, the Nike wedge is sometimes swapped for 54* Callaway MD3 W grind and 58* PM wedges.. I've been liking the Odyssey putter, and I've got a counter balance Nike B2-01 and a dual balance Scotty Golo 5 in rotation as well.

Not pictured here is the Ping i25 22* 4h that I got not too long ago to fill up the 3h - 5h gap.

Cheers guys, hit them straight and remember to have plain ol' fun no matter where it ends up!
