    Sailing Lessons

    My wife and I signed up and we have been out near the Ravenel Bridge 2 times - 5 more lessons over the next 2 weekends. Taught by The College of Charleston and using their boats, single masted 2 sails, main and jib, and maybe we can use (I doubt it) the bigger front sail before it's over...

    Whirlpool Dryer? Humidity of the South? Just dumb but bad Luck? WTF?

    So, we moved into this new construction house in Dec 22. It included all the appliances including the aformentions fancy Whirlpool Washer Dryer. I the exhaust vent get clogged up with lint every few months - I need to remove vacuum clean etc. Every 2-3 months. Now, due to the knee, I did it...

    UFL - now owned and funded by The Rock

    So, who's watching? I have browsed by very briefly here and there. I ask for advertising purposes. I know a few people in advertsing and I am curious how this venture is going the data that I saw was less than stellar - something like 1 million viewers and one game that featured 7k paid tickets...

    Interesting Group I was paired up with today - I am usually a single so I get what I get

    Usually it's members and all goes well. Not today - I state in advance that I was not angry and I tried to be helpful - where possible. But these kids what a mess - I don't get it. First off 2 girls and 1 guy - they are all mid-late 20s all friends and all nice the entire 9 holes. Each of...

    Monday Finishes

    So, weather related Monday finishes... in the Heritage thread, someone asked, if they knew it was coming why not start them off earlier? I have to agree, they had to know it was in the local news for a couple days - so not a huge surprise. Yet, it seemed they did not start that early. I will...

    The rain hood/cover

    The one that comes with your bag. Do you remove it, leave it, only carry it on days where rain is forecast, forget you even have it? I’ve never removed it from the bag other than rare occasion to use it. Otherwise it’s folded away in the garment pocket taking up valuable space.

    In Home Minor (I think) electrical work....

    So, I have done a lot of electrical work in my houses over the years, 100% problem free. My (wonderful) wife bought a chandelier for her office (insert eye roll of choice here). I had to put it together - pretty straightforward - 6 arms each with wires that go to a junction of sorts with spring...

    Graphite Shaft users

    If you, like me, are a graphite user (for me it's about arthritis mostly), do you also have graphite in your specialty wedges? I do, but I so seldom full swing them I am wondering/rethinking the need for graphite in those clubs (sand/lob for me). If I am finessing or touch with those clubs -...

    Rocket Golf USA - another headcover company

    Give it up for the Staff today!

    What a great number of articles/reviews today. I am not a lifer here, but I can't recall so many hitting in one morning since I found this place. Each one has been super - just wanted to thank all the staffers for your hard work getting all these ready for us to consume.

    Knee Replacement Golfers

    It's my turn in exactly 2 weeks and 3.75 hours. Haha. 1PM 31 Jan. FIrst off, for those on the fence, I will try to use this thread to share my misery. Second, those who have had it done, can you offer any thoughts, tips etc? When did you get clearance to resume normal office working...

    Odd (ish) Golf related wishes?

    I wish I had all the time (and a ton of cash) to get some lessons from Lee Trevino - I like his demeanor and how he describes things - for some reason when I read a tip of his (and I seem to be getting a lot of them now), they just make sense - it's how he describes them. I have tried 2 of them...

    Orlando - Christmas week?

    I think that it may be my last hurrah until May or June of 2024 - so, who lives there and wants to consider a round with a hobbled old guy? We are vacationing/celebrating Christmas there and since it's a full week, my wife has given a strong go ahead to get a round in. Never golfed Orlando...

    So, as the USGA and R&A contemplate making the game harder for the masses...

    Why has there been so little (overall) said about the driver - yes, I stole this idea sort of from the Adam Scott comment thread. What I mean, is how can the governing bodies fix the game so that it does not penalize the regular person be they a + or a 24 cap? At least look at other options...

    Jordan 1 Hi-Tops - who wears them for golf?

    So, I have a knee replacement coming up, and I have been known to roll my ankle here and there on odd slopes - unclear if from the bad knee, or just being clumsy or old or what, maybe I need remedial walking. But I did have a pair of adidas hi top golf shoes once they were sent back as they...

    Blue, black, grey, white. They look really nice. Pricey at $380. But I’ll be keeping an eye out for a sale! Anyone seen these in the wild?
