Fore!

Not that my golf clubs were that bad (King Cobra II), but technology has come a long way since I got my clubs using credit card points with American Express. Must've been 12 years ago at least.

Anyway, I stumbled on pinemeadowgolf.com, who make knock offs. Okay, wait, let me back up: After getting my Costco membership (see previous blog entry), I was cruising the aisles for lunch and saw some TaylerMade golf clubs. One thing lead to another and soon I was spending hours on the internet researching clubs. THEN, I stumbled on pinemeadowgolf.com.

Anyway, I ordered a new set of custom clubs and my gosh were they sweet! Well, they were "sweet" after I got over my misconception that they would automatically go in the hole on command (I had to accept the fact that I still had to swing the club and hit the ball - bummer!).

But, overall, the oversized driver head was great. I could hit FOUR golfs balls with one swing, so one was bound to land in a fairway (and hopefully it was the fairway I was aiming at.). And the titanium face irons, with stiff shafts put about 10-20 yards more on my shots. Oh, and best of all, I got 3 and 4 hybrid irons. Now, I can actually hit my 3 and 4 irons without worrying too much about hitting someone on another fairway (or another golf course, or in a nearby park)
