The Wager...


Pigems

Recommended Posts

I've learned that true friends are hard to come by. Do your best to hang on to them while they're here and honour them when they're gone. The world can be a lonely place as a single, although I do enjoy my solitary rounds at first light.

PD, what is it with you and ppl. throwing clubs?!? Glad to hear he will pay for repairs. What did he say when you told him it was a $1,000 putter?!

I actually mentioned the first club throwing incident when this happened this morning, as he was the one who parlayed the flying club the first time.

He will not have to foot that kind of bill G64. I'm hoping the Machine team can grind the topline and soften the edges to remove the dents. I'd putt with it (dents and all) with a Band-Aid on top before I'd charge a friend that kind of money. Good friendships are more valuable than custom putters. Life happens, I'm blessed to be able to purchase equipment and play golf.
[/quote]

Always the gentleman PD! I think you will make more putts
because of it. A good disposition on the course is worth
several strokes!
[/quote]

Dave Billings was kind enough to reply within hours. I'm sending the putter back to Machine and he's going to 'work his magic' to rectify the situation. He's a master craftsman so I have no doubt that he'll restore the putter to its original glory. Worst case scenario I have him add some hand peening to the topline and we call it a day.

PD I think anyone who can call you a friend is privileged.

After a more thorough look at the shaft I found the marking for flex, it's right where the blue meets the grey in little letters :)

I was gonna chime in but I see you found it. Here comes some
"bombastic" drives! Look out, LOL!
[/quote]

I can see it all now Conrad . . . Pigs laces a drive down the center of the fairway and as the ball crosses the 300 yard mark he busts into a rousing rendition of Shaggy's Mr. Boombastic. He raises his driver and kisses the face before returning it (smoking hot) to his golf bag.

"Mr. Boombastic, baby fantastic"

There's a 'leftie' involved.

Sorry, I had to :D

Yes sir I did, I was holding it over a Grey floor earlier so maybe that was why I didn't notice it then lol. Thanks for the recommendation on the shaft Conrad, I appreciate the help :)

Let us know how you like the shaft, Pigems!
[/quote]

Most definitely will, I'm also going to pull the PX Black shaft out of my g20 and put a callaway tip on it and test all three together at the simulator. I'm very curious to see the difference the three different shafts make. One is low launch, one is high launch and imnot sure what the PXv is. But it should be fun.

Stop Pigs before you get the thread locked. I can feel the heat rising and I'm already scantily clad.

If the Wager ends I fear we will have to enter an anti-Wager thread. The man or woman who purchases the most product in 6 months is declared the winner. I can't afford a thread like that, and neither can G64.

Whatever you do, do NOT try and say you were trying to buy something at GT for her. She's not going to believe it, LOL. Unless it's pink or purple. To be honest, you just don't seem like a pink or purple guy.
