Met Todd today around the practice green and received the coveted Golf WRX poker chip. Thanks Todd! I am volunteering as a standard bearer. What a neat experience! Was with Mark Wilson's group today. I won't know what group I will be with tomorrow until I get to the course. Since I don't have any seniority as this is my first time, I will probably get a lesser known group. [/quote]
Was nice meeting you today too! Volunteers like you are what make an event like this successful. Keep up the good work!

WOW you guys are really stepping up the coverage! Great job.

Will you be able to get shots of Dustin's bag? I'm curious to see what shaft(s) he is gaming in his woods.

I was only able to get a few shots of DJ and his bag. Hope to get those pics up shortly.

If his caddy gets out on the practice green early, I'll shoot the bag tomorrow

I know one of the juniors in a couple of the junior/pro photos. She plays golf with a friend's daughter in some of the USGA events. It was a real surprise to see her, even though she lives in Hawaii.

Aloha, New member / Lurker here and saw this thread and thought...man I need to creat an account, in anycase, beautiful pictures and oddly enough I am the caddie in the black t-shirt/red stripe with the yellow golf bag, to bad I didnt know to look out for you, would have love to get that poker chip!

I was there today at the pro am watching my friends play too! I hope that in the future I can meet some of you! Have fun at the Sony and maybe we will run into each other!
[/quote]

Sorry to have missed you. Who was your player in the ProAm? My team had John Huh..super nice kid...I'm now a huge fan of his for sure. I'm a regular at pretty much every golf shop on Oahu...probably hang out and bs at Aloha Golf Center the most though. If you're in the neighborhood..stop by and I might be there. I've always got a spare chip in my car for those times I run into a member of GolfWRX at one of the shops.

Not sure on the price but the bag belongs to local High School Senior Richard Hattori who won the local qualifier for a spot in the Sony. I've known Richard since he was about hip high. He's grown much but still the same nice kid. It's super seeing him teeing it up at the Sony considering I've ran into he and his father at every Sony since those days Richard was just a young boy learning. I hope to see him make the weekend!

In Thursday part 2, Josh Teater is wearing a UK belt buckle, any idea where he got this at?

That's awesome...

[Puppetmaster]

So who is this Callaway staffer and why is he not playing with an XHot or Fit Extreme? Haha. Although, I don't blame him, the RHT is one of the best drivers they have made recently.

Ah okay, thanks Greg.

[rfarrell51]

Surprised that no one has mentioned seeing greg manhandling a cameron putter with Scotty standing right next to him.

 

Great pics. Thanks for the hard work.

 

That range and putting green look small.

 

I was surprised as well. Thanks for the great photos guys!!

 

Nice buckle Greg!

OK, so a few things I noticed.....we never got a good shot of the YES putter, but it looks like have their own white #7

For the TM Ho's and Haters, no one mention the lack of Bladz Tours present and I really cannot believe not one mention of the new Ghost Mallet Putter that is still hush hush.....Greg's wide angle lens was no suppose to pick those up. Even the Headcover for it got into a pic....notice Red mallet cover. Go to Sony Open Monday #5 and have a look. There is a also a few on the Daytona JDL versions that are in there also.

I believe the YES putter you are referring to is their Sandy. I have the satin finish on my and love the feel!

Yeah that was the group I caddied with on Sunday, and then on Wednesday, I followed the group from outside the ropes. Watch John Huh Drop that nice birdie on the par 3 and that almost eagle on the 9th. I was the guy wearing the purpleish shirt hahaah well in any case maybe we will bump into each other.

Today was a nice day, was following Dean Wilson and Hattori, nice to see the local boys hanging in there!

[easyyy]

Here are some I picked out as interesting new gear...

[JaxBeachNole]

I lost my place in the pics page. Did you guys get some up close shots of the new super strokes? 4.0?
