Got bored so I decided to go back on the boards to see what we were talking about in 2005. To my amazement its basically the same thing 12 years later. Read a post about rolling the ball back, one about a misinformed rumor, one about distance, and of course a few dispelling a certain persons accomplishments. The more times change, the more they stay the same lmao. Guess I need a break from the site. Not gonna miss anything apparently :)

One day somewhere deep in the archives I came across a thread about Ping's MAP pricing. Several posters were convinced that it would be the end of them in a few short years if they continued down that road.

My favourite when you go back in time around here is the guys talking about how amazing this head is or that shaft is and how it's all maxed and they'll play it forever. It wasn't THAT common, but it's always fun to read the signature below and see how different the equipment is to what is being hyped up at the time. I get that equipment is always changing, but it's kinda fun, none the less.

LOL and the same $300 club from back then you can now find at Goodwill or a yard sale for $2.99 or even less. Heck some people will give the to you if you will remove them from the storage building
