That’s the NBC way - we’ve already stayed on an extra hour for this but you can go to our streaming service to watch the trophy ceremony. We gotta get off the air at 7 for network prime time! You think they’re putting the men’s US Open trophy or Claret Jug presentation on Peacock only?

I’d like to know if it’s a ploy to get people to sign up for peacock or if it’s just because network news is more important than golf

Oh absolutely. It's early in the season, so I have plenty of time to adjust.

Was just kinda bummed on how my game was that day. But at least I figured out one part of my game even if it was very late in the round. It will come together eventually... or I'll just complain about it in this thread. :lol:

I play pretty regularly with a probably 320lb dude, and it's not a 6'7" type 320 lb guy. He's like a 2 handicap somehow. Anyway, yesterday he called himself heavy ballesteros and it was one of the funnier things I've heard lately

Looks like I'm going to get another crack at Harbour Town this September.

My dad is starting to develop bad arthritis in his hands, and the doc isn't sure how much longer he'll be able to golf, so he's making the executive decision to make a tee time when they're available to play it while he still can. I'm excited to watch him experience it.

I've been looking into getting one-length irons for anything above a 7 iron by way of purchasing single irons to save money.

My biggest complaint so far is that the lofts on newer clubs are all jacked up to the point where a current 7 iron is stronger lofted by a degree/degree and a half than my current 6 iron is.

I pride myself on knowing my distances/gapping, so I don't want a full replacement of my current set, but I don't know how I feel about having two 7 irons in the bag (even though one is basically a 6).

I ordered my irons in 'retro loft' so they'd be closer to the sets I learned to play with. My 7i is 32.3 degrees which is still strong compared to my 34.5 degree 7i from 20 years ago. But way better than the stock 30 degrees the set is sold with.

i'm going back to that with my next set. it's annoying, my "PW" is 41 degrees, same as my old 9 iron. So I had to buy an actual pitching wedge, a 46 degree wedge, and technically have two pitching wedges now. it's all marketing BS to say you hit your irons so far but it annoys me

I think both the loft and the design.

They have the forgiveness so your mis hits still go pretty well. But then when you catch them flush, they can blast the shot 10-15 yards longer than your standard distance.

My next set will probably be like the p790 type. Targeting after this summer.
