Never thought I would see a Titleist staffer playing AP 2's. Thanks for this JB!

Are you thinking of the AP1's? They're meant more for the "rest of us". The AP2's are the forged players' irons.

BOOYAH! :bananadance:
Consistently one of the best putters on any tour. This win nearly guarantees a tour card for next year. Last time he was there was 2005. In '99 he was #1 ranked amateur.

Sidenote 1: Anybody know where "Pale Rider" is. Hunter's profile has this statement, "Would most like to play golf with Clint Eastwood."

Sidenote 2: I wonder how many players still have a Nickent club in their bag.

Static,
Its funny you mention that about Nickent. I did a count last month from the Darrell Survey at the time and there was quite a bit still playing the 3 and 4dx hybrids.

I remember like 2 years ago Nickent had some staffers on the PGA tour and the Nationwide Tour but I don't see a lot of Nickent staffers nowadays.

Perhaps because Nickent is no longer.

Ahhh I didn't know that, what happened to them? Did a company buy them out or they just went broke?

Yah you're right... I hit the AP 1's when I was getting back in to the game and they felt awful compared to the G15's and VR's. My bad.
