In Nuggets case $2 would be just over a pound in his money? lol BTW, notice who doesn't have any money above his name?!? lol PD, remind me to tell you a story about bird games on the cell phone next time I see you.

About £1.20 but I've got this one down


Car parts and my eye on a watch so as I said before golf spending is definitely curbed

I have these 3 beat! They have already made changes to their bags, except Nugget. I have no golf shops near me, and my wife has her finger on speed dial for a divorce lawyer if I buy anything. Mmmmmm, free coffee!

You have a built in advantage as you don't own any gear outside of your primary set. Your a minimalist who lives in the boonies.

You can take coffees from me in match play, but I will not purchase a new club until April 1st. That I will guarantee.

To be clear I am rooting for pigems, but I'm definitely not betting on him! I may be crazy but I'm not stupid. LOL I gotta root for the proverbial underdog!

Traitor!

By rooting for Pigems you inadvertently root for the Montreal Canadians, which then means that you by default root for Golf64.

I'm rooting for Nuggets. He drives cool cars.

[Nuggets]

I'm going to return the favour!

I'm also going to give you a like because that number you're on is annoying me........its too close to 1500. Someone give the man another to hit the mark

Golf64, I was in Golftown yesterday and they were testing me big time. Full rack of LH only Callaway Hybrids on sale for $29.99 from $139.00. I was sooo, close, but I love my Ping

Even with the Timmies cards factored in that's still going to be a steal. I'm just sayin'.

Using your logic, I should purchase clubs for my wife in the hopes that she will pick up the game. I wonder if she can swing a driver with 9.5* of loft and a stiff flex shaft?

I think I've found the loophole here



You buy them as a present for said woman, when she realises she cant play with them she gifts them to you, the club then becomes part of the stash/backup shed and you then pay your $2 to rotate it

Here's the fly in the ointment. My wife's much smarter than I am. She'd instinctively know that this was a ruse. I'd therefore have to find another woman to purchase golf clubs for and that would cost me even more money and/or I'd end up dead at the hand's of my wife.

Plan foiled. Need to return to the drawing board.

Hmmm ok maybe not for drivers but it would work for wedges and putters!

[Pigems]

So this morning me and the Piglet went out for a practice round. We were playing best ball and not keeping score because he has a lot more fun when we do that so that's our thing now.

So, second hole, I hit my tee shot and get on the green. He turns to me and says, "I don't even need to hit now, that was a good shot". I says to him, "you always hit your shot, you could get it closer or even a hole in one". He laughs and goes up to hit his shot, I decided to record his swing this shot for some reason. He tees up, swings and hit the flag from 132y lol, and I have it on video

I'll upload it shortly, he was so excited. He didn't even know I taped him until the round was over lol

[DeNinny]

PD sounds like it is "cheaper to keep her." The big assumption is that you would find another woman. Could you assign a probability to that with the assumption of not using one of Nuggets's cool cars? I may even place a bet if the odds are high enough.

I've been with the same woman for 21 years but I've still got the magic . . . I think.

That all being said, I'd never want to start over. Courtship takes work if you want to find a keeper and I'd rather invest my energy elsewhere.

[Pigems]

Oh i thought about it loooong and hard about it for $29, it was very similar looking at address as my Ping i15. But i decided if i was gonna go out, it has to be for a spectacular once in lifetime deal, and while this was a great deal, it wasnt once in a lifetime lol

Golf Town clearance sale coming soon! 1,2,3 GO!
[/quote]

Your lucky to not live near one for the purposes of The Wager, there is 7 different places I could buy clubs within a 15 minute drive of my house, not including golf courses that have clubs in the pro shop. 3 Nevada Bobs, Golftown, Golf Central and Two Driving Ranges that have used clubs. Maybe thats why this is so hard for me lol

[PeanutsDaddy]

Pigs,

thank you for picking up on the country reference and sharing the song. I was playing the song and my wife asks what I'm doing. I'm trying to explain without disclosing too much : )

The little Piglet looks so excited in the video. I like the double arm thrust at the end dude!

I still don't have my phone working but am looking forward to having a camera on the golf course. I've missed capturing a few fabulous moments this year.

[DeNinny]

PD just tell your wife the song is about your clubs and how you are saving money by your abstinence from being a dirty ho.

[DeNinny]

In fact if you all want me to root against pigems you should up the ante on the wager: loser has to create a video of himself singing the song and post it in this thread. Thoughts?

Anytime brotha

He was stoked, he thought he had an ace for a minute there lol !!

Having the phone has definetly come in handy more then a few times, just remember to put it one silent, i forgot a few times and some people get cranky haha

[Pigems]

So was out with the wife this morning to babies'r'us as my sister is having another kid. GT is basically right next door so naturally we ended up going there after. We walk in, my wife's see this rack of clubs(which I knew about lol) and says, "wow that's an amazing deal, I know you can't buy one but I can can't i?"
I says, yes you can but I don't know if I can accept it"

She says "well you can have it when you bet is over then" and laughed

So now there is a new Callaway hybrid in my car that I can't even have and technically don't even own lol. My wife bought her first golf club lol

Oh well at least I get a new head cover lol

[PeanutsDaddy]

That's hilarious Pigs. It would torture me to have a club that I wasn't allowed to hit sitting in my home. I'd enter negotiations with the Mrs.

As an aside . . . I've never seen so many left handed clubs in one place at the same time. What a deal.

Haha oh it is going to torture me as well, I've got myself convinced as of now that I won't like it based on that fact that it has more offset then my Ping lol.

I know eh, and for that price. They might as well have been just giving them away for free. It too bad they were all 3h's and no 4's or 5's lol

[Pigems]

Wow this looks even more like my Ping then even I thought. There almost like twins lol

It's also gone now, I was told to "Give HER, HER club back!" lol

You lefties get l the love ; )

I really like my 3 hybrid and might be forced to carry my 4 wood (instead of the 5 wood I just put in the bag) as they seem to be producing similar yardages despite the different lofts (17.5* to 20*). I'm going to keep plugging away to ensure that I've addressed my yardage gaps.
