The Wager...

[Golf64]

Without looking it up, I think Les Habitants means the Original habitants of Que.? Not sure on this, just a guess. And they make great pea soup!

Well done. Amazing soup.

The western Canuck chiming in again: I still think you guys should be playing with one deck. If you want to sub in a club in you have to donate a toonie say to the Sally Ann, SPCA, whatever.

Not buying now doesn't mean that you didn't buy too much in the past and you do have the backup hoard. For the bet (challenge) to mean anything dance with the one you brung, or pay charity for it.

I mean how many clubs do you need when your playing season is like 12 weeks? Sorry, couldn't resist that one.

Carry on.....

That is a superb suggestion. A charitable donation to add beyond the standard 14. I'd be up for that.

Gents, should we declare our bags for the remainder of the season (with the potential back-ups)?

I want to make the most of my 12 week season : )

[Pigems]

OK I'm in, when do we have to declare the 14 by? How many spares can we have? One wedge and one top end club?

[Pigems]

OK so from all this, I've got it down to 14, with 2 spares.

The 14...
Ping G20 9.5* Driver with PX Black 5.5 (-1")

Ping I15 15.5* Fairway with TFC700 (-1")

Ping I15 20* Hybrid with TFC700

Titleist 712 CB irons 3-pw with S300

Callaway X Series Jaws 52*/CC and 56*/MD Wedges with S300

Cleveland Classic HB #1 Putter



The Spares..

Wishon 321LI 24* Hybrid

Cleveland Tour Action 900 60* Wedge

[myspinonit]

Hey boys, I'm in if you want to play with the West.

My bag is set and I sell any spares as I get new ones (sellers remorse sometimes). My only spare is an old modified 2ball that is remaining lonely on the dance floor.

I do suggest that this dialogue could/should be taken to Gmail or whatever at this stage now.

But then we'd be left with Habs discussion in the thread and one can only take so much from these two.

I agree, with the exception of exchanging shipping addresses at the end for the winner, there's really nothing that everyone else can't see going on. Plus it's more interesting to have other members weighing in and taunting

Ok, I assume I'm in.

Agee it's cool to be live if others are chiming in and of course if the mods continue to agree too. I see there is an April 1 date (2015 one hopes!) target now suggested.

My only spare now is my old modified 2ball that performed well late last year but is out to pasture. ....

I guess a handicap for slippage with just that option isn't available? (lol) My wife s loving this BTW... should never let her in the mancave despite being the coolest spot in the place...

[PeanutsDaddy]

myspinonit,

I'll have to consult 'the boy's' but I think it's safe to say you're in.

What clubs are you bringing to the wager?

[Pigems]

I'm cool with you being in. More winnings for me

See my sig. Print it off if you like. What you see is what you get from out West, dontcha know.

I added new GP CP2 wrap grips to half my clubs this morning (the rest of the grips are on order at GT). Just for the record.

Winnings? All I've seen is pride and committment not to buy besides the toonies to charity (I suggested) for adding on from stash from the weak-kneed.

[Pigems]

Well I just sold the Scorpions to the old fella I'm playing that tourny with. I was just going to give them to him but he liked them so much he insisted on giving me $100 for them lol. So I told him he has to at least go play them first before he pays me to make sure he likes them. He was super excited as he is going away next weekend to play golf with a buddy. So that's one less set in the Stable now

Atta boy Pigs. Let the purge begin.

[Pigems]

I think he's really going to like them, and I feel better knowing that someone is going to get some use out of them

[Pigems]

So me and the Piglet(My Boy) Played a practice round of 9 holes yesterday and spent an hour at the soccer field today with our sand wedges working on chipping and pitching shots mostly but we hit a fet full shots as well, I used my Jaws 56* for the first time outdoors today( my last NEW club i had to hit ). It was nice to have him out playing with me again. He had a couple of firsts yesterday as well, he hit his first ever 200y drive, and he also hit the flag and almost holed out from about 60y and he had a couple of nice putss as well. He was very proud of his round and so was i( maybe he will get back into golf more now that he had a few really good shots yesterday ) Heres a video of one of his swings from yesterday i snuck when he wasnt looking lol. His swing is much better this year then last, i wish i could get him to practice more

And a few of mine from today with the Jaws

[Golf64]

Sorry, I am a poor unemployed person. Only have one set of clubs. My set is in my signature. That's all I got.

[Golf64]

Pigs. Love your T-shirt in your video! I have a navy one with #76 on mine.

Let me know if/when you want a breakdown on that swing al'a Reasonability. Won't volunteer it since I don't think you were asking. Then again -- a hole-in-one guy probably isn't asking too many questions these days -- LOL! And btw -- based on the card played a couple of posts ago by Golf64.... his single set pride and joy may give him an edge in the wager!

Hole in Ones are the flukiest thing in sports, no skill involved there(in my case anywayss lol) Ill never turn down a chance to get a knowledgable opinion on my swing, fire away sir. Id love to hear what you have to say on the subject

He may have the edge now, but his wife will eventruly want a new club wich will temp him as well

TY sir, ill always be a Koivu Fan. Very nice, i saw a guy in Shoppers last night who was wearing a navy Kovalev 27 shirt, i wanted to steal it on his back hahaha

[Golf64]

Was never a Kovalev fan. He was a one way floater. Kinda like Vanek, IMO.

[Pigems]

I wasn't his biggest fan but when he wanted to be, he was a really good player. Almost Rene Bourque like but with more skill.

[Pigems]

So how's everybody doing?? Anyone owe Toonies(Canadian $2 Coin) yet?? lol
