Really Craving MP64 3-PW........ and some new MP-T4's 52 & 58 KBS Tour X +1/2" 1.5* upright

[RJgolf1990]

Ive hit the 6 iron feels really solid

[JJensen]

Having my club guy check all my lofts and lies this week. Also going to bend the 54 to 53.

The golf expo was great. I got a $300 Adidas rain suit for $100. And a dozen hex black yours for $25. Oh and 18 free b330 balls from all the different booths.

Honestly the only change I can see happening is a higher launching shaft in my 3 wood. But even that is a maybe.

[JJensen]

Every time i look at the BST i just kinda look away..... This is really weird. I've never been so satisfied with my bag.

Might try a KBS Hybrid shaft in the Pro a12 though... or another attas.

Yup Bella Vista, AR... Going to play Bella Vista CC, Berksdale, Highlands, Dogwood Hills, Kingswood, Scotsdale... Should be a good trip playing 36 a day getting a head start on the competition. Two of our other guys on the team are going with too.

Hey JJ love the updates and the quest to college golf.

If you don't mind me asking just as a curiosity.

At your college what would the #1 players scores be for tournament rounds? And what would the 5th players be?

Good Luck this year and enjoy the trip!

Number one and two last year were scratch tournament scores from 68-74 throughout the season with one or two above that. Numbers 3-6 are from 2-6hdcp. Some 69 up to a few blow ups in the mid 80s. Should be a solid team and I'm excited to play for them. In our conference they will be very competitive The program is pretty new (last year was their first season), but we have some very talented guys from local schools coming into it. I think 5 of the top 8 were locals.

Three of the D3 coaches that called me said the offer is always open. But I am hoping to get into a smaller D1 program after next year for the scholarships

[scratchswinger]

Congrats on the success and nice clubs. Keep it up, I'm a big fan.

Thanks scratch! Consistency is my big thing this year, and keeping it together under pressure.

[JJensen]

Broke down and bought an old byron mallet. Mint John Byron DR-1 now what grip goes on it??? Hmmmmmm

[JJensen]

New Byron and another White Cabretta Stitchback on the way. Should be here just in time to come with to Arkansas!

[Deerslayer]

Sticks are looking good JJ! Have a blast in Arkansas. There are some beautiful areas and courses there. I am sure It will be nice for you to be able to catch a shot thin and not have to cringe in pain

Thank you! We are going to Bella vista… We will play Kingswood, the country club, dogwood and a few other courses that my dad speaks very highly of. He has gone on the trip many times, But this'll be the first year for my friends and I. The part that my buddies and I are really looking forward to is getting a head start on the competition with some early golf (The top three from our team are going, As well as our swing coach)… It's still snowing right now in Minnesota… So getting some early rounds In could be crucial and really help us out With the early-season. We're really looking forward to this season and I'll be watching For updates on Strat as well.

[JJensen]

Shot 82 my first round if the year. We played Eagle Crest in Alma, AR. It was 35* with 20-30mph winds and the greens were terrible. I could have easily shot 78 if the greens weren't so slow and bumpy.

Overall I felt like it was a pretty good round considering the conditions and that I haven played since October.

[Cwing]

Nice setup.

[JJensen]

Headed off to Ben Geren in Fort Smith AR today. It cold again but not as windy. We are playing the Silo and Magnolia courses which held a Nationwide Tour National Qualifier. It should be a fun day again

[nacho]

How's the putter rolling

I'm using the fastback because the shaft on the byron was a little loose. I'm on line, but my distance control is off. It could be better

[nacho]

Oh,see any sweet sticks down there

Not too many people are out because its about 30*. My buddy just got a 913D2 8.5 with a Speeder TS 7.2 Stiff. I haven't hit it yet though.

[nacho]

Understandable. But I would love 30 degrees right now

30 isn't too bad.. It's the 20-30 mph winds with the 30*
