Ran up to the Target World Challenge early this AM. . .

[pga_apprentice]

Had an 11am tee time, so only a few pics!

Dashed up to Sherwood Country Club this morning before my tee-time. Got there just as the gates opened. None of the pros were out yet, but the AMs were hard at work on their over-the-top moves and flying right elbows! :) Waited near the driving range and got to see Tiger, DC, Michael Campbell, Geoff Ogilvy, Thomas Bjorn, Fred Funk, Freddie, David Toms, Luke Donald, Chris Dimarco, and Furyk. Most of the fellas were in a section I had no access to, but I was able to snap a few photos for your viewing pleasure ! :cheesy:

A view from the tee of hole #10.


A look at the putting green...rolling about 12 and P-U-R-E !


A look down the 18th fairway...like hitting into your walk-in closet!


Cabbage surrounding the green and a glass tabletop from above the hole.


A look down the fairway of hole #1.


Tigers's bag.


The host...


The "infamous" 5-wood...
STOCK :cheesy: T-40 Tour with a standard (non-ion) Diamana 103-X.


Michael Campbell's bag...check out the grind on that 60°! :cheesy:


DC...personality to spare! :cheesy:


DC's bag.


Michael Campbell's Diamana 73-X in his FT-3 Tour.


JF with Fluff...he keeps his knees closer together than most virgins I know!


Paddy Harrington's tools.


Fred Funk testing the first of (3) R7 425s. All had the Robax with slightly different tipping.


FF's bag.

That course looks incredible, again great pictures.

[rednumbers69]

[jdubya13]

a word on fred funk, first a skirt, now cargo pants??

 

what's next? a bucket hat?

[fireice]

Thanks for the great pictures, the course looks amazing to say the least. Who will win this week, I say Darren Clarke. Great pants Darren :)

No sweat. I just wish I could have hung around longer to get a few more snapshots.

 

IB,

 

Thanks for the sweet pics.

JC,

 

Just trying to do my part. :) This site has very high standards.

Thanks for the pics! A couple of comments:

 

1. You know some virgins? You might not want to broadcast that as they are in as high a demand as a Cameron 009.

 

2. There were some very interesting pants...Darren Clarke's plaid and Fred Funk's cargo. Is Funk inking a new clothing deal with Old Navy or American Eagle? C'mon, he just won over $900 grand in the Skins Game and he can't find a nice pair of Zanella or Zegna trousers. Maybe he forgot his pants and Target gave him some from the boys' department. :)

 

3. That range looked kinda chewed up, more like a daily fee public course.

LOL...nice zingers! The range was a bit Pamela Anderson, but that comes as a result of some very suspect member swings.

My pleasure... :cheesy:

Great Pics. Can you try to get pictures of Luke Donald's bag and his putter? I have always wanted to know which scotty he is using.

I don't think I'll be going up for any other rounds. I've got lessons and starter duties the rest of the week. :)

[pitchmaster1224]

so tiger has the 103 in his driver, 3 wood and 5 wood now? joe said tiger switched to the 103 in his driver during the grand slam

[papichulosteve]

man freddy is just asking for it heading to the course in cargos. i'm all for comfort and all but he might as well just show up in sweat pants and a hawaiian shirt

[drkhorse117]

thanks for those awesome pics PGA...the virgin thing was pretty funny. LOL

[vanquish007]

Great shots!!! Nice work!!

 

:) :cheesy: :cheesy:

Very nice pics, but next time don't photoshop out the fairways! :) Very good description of the 18th--I'd use a wedge and just chip it on home (if you ever need a fourth). :cheesy:

Great shots! Thanks for posting.

 

I can honestly say that this site is going to get me through the long winter months.

You are right about the fairways. My camera is 8 megapixels and the originals are just so big. I'm supposed to be putting something together with a member in a couple of weeks...kind of an early Christmas present! :cheesy:

 

 

 

Thanks for all the praises, fellas!

[Lord Thomas]

The grind on Cambell's 60* wedge is sweet looking.

 

Thanks for the pics.

What are those irons in FF's bag??

[pga_apprentice]

What are those irons in FF's bag??

 

 

Those are the milled RAC prototypes. Very limited release on tour. Pre-cursor to the '05 RAC TP irons.

[Mriddick00]

What are those irons in FF's bag??

 

 

Wondering the same thing. I wish some of these events would come around my area.....JEALOUS!

[Germster]

great pic's have you seen any r7 425 or the 460 out there???

[mlamar]

nice pics ... thx for the look

[gcerts110]

is it just me or do tigers irons look to be more of a satin finish than i remember them to be. It might just be the shade or somthing they just caught my eye

[sergizmo]

Thank you very much pga apprentice for the pics! :)

 

I didn't know Harrington's PI5's were forged. Interesting...

[kkhere]
