<p>I have Srixon 701-i , 3-p wedge cavity forged irons with a 52 and 56 Srixon wedges </p>
<p>a Srixon z star 3 & 5 wood with stiff shafts</p>
<p>and a Srixon Z star driver.</p>
<p> Great gear 5 years ago and i'm in no rush to upgrade as i reckon it has got another 10 years in it.</p>
<p> Odyssey 2 ball putter.</p>
<p> I am trying to keep of the constantly upgrading golf gear merry go round that some of my mates are stuck on, as it is a road to financial ruin.</p>
<p>handicap 14.6</p> -
<p>I have a mental stupidity around srixon. I hate the gear and I have no idea why. Even when playing foursomes I will ask we play with anything but Srixon.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Completely irrational.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Always Prov 1x balls.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Handicap = 11.2</p> -
<p>will you all be taking photos of your cocks and posting them next?</p>

<p>I go through stages with golf balls, currently using srixon soft feel 4 doz for $99 at golf warehouse, i played my best golf 2 months ago with a box of pinnacle golds, one of the cheapest balls around . Prov 1's at $6-7 each are no good for me as i still tend to lose quite a few, quite regularly.</p> -

<p>Srixon Z Star XV is a good ball and a lot cheaper. So many good balls out these now including Nike and we know who plays them. </p> -

<br>
I use these too and just prefer the feel of them over pro v1s.<br><br>
Re clubs, I have a callaway razor extreme driver and 3 wood, both with stiff prolaunch shafts. Hybrid is a mashie m2.<br><br>
Irons are Cleveland cg16 blacks with Cleveland wedges in 48, 52, 56 and 60deg....more than I need really.<br>
Putter is an old school McGregor p60. Had for almost 20 years now and as much as I love it, it might be time to change as my putting is letting my game down right now.<br><br>
Handicap 10.3 -
Continuing to get out reasonably regularly (played gulf harbour mid week) and my golf has been ok for the most but today I pretty much lost it.<br><br>
Played huapai and front 9 was alright, without being spectacular. Back nine started ok then I 4 putted the number 1 stroke hole from about 2m. Bit fired up next hole which is short par 4. Was a bit angry so thought better hit the 3 wood to be safe....the bloody ball cleared the green on the full and straight OB. OK two triple bogeys in a row. Thought had cleared my head after i put a great drive straight up the middle in to a tough headwind, next shot shank in to the hazard! Dropped 8 shots in 3 holes.... And to end the day, had a crack at the par 5 18th for two. Driver then hybrid, both great shots but looked just short. Got up to the green and ball not to be found. Ughh...back I go 200m and then a steaming 3 putt for good measure...why do I bother??<br><br><br><a class="bbc_url" href="http://www.iforce.co.nz/View.aspx?i=hspqis3h.rtl.jpg"><img src="http://iforce.co.nz/i/hspqis3h.rtl.jpg" alt="hspqis3h.rtl.jpg"></a> -
<p>Played a round at coolangatta while over there last week. Always tough with hire clubs though (irons were blades....dang!) and had a 9 on the first hole (par 5) but recovered OK for a round in the mid 80s.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Course wasn't too bad but was suprised how people were encouraged to roll their carts over greens rather than around the fringe. The members I was playing with said it was common in Australia and as they play the lie year round, they did it to keep the fringe in good nick.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Was quite an enjoyable arvo but I still am putting like a blind man. Had an 84 this weekend that included 40putts..... so so bad!</p> -
<p>I had a hit out at the Celtic Manor 2010 course that hosted the Ryder Cup. it's the second time I've played the course and it's just as difficult as I remembered. Some holes are just monstrous and then you look back over your shoulder and see the pro tees 100 meters further back. Played OK-isn but a little inconsistently. However I shall mostly be remembering the birdie on the 18th right in front of the gallery. :yes:</p>

<p>ah Robert Allenby, what a guy. Fired his caddy on the course in the middle of an 81. Yes Robert, it's the caddy's fault...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The different stories are excellent. From memory this isn't the first caddy to drop the bag on Allenby is it?</p> -
<p>I'd probably sack him too</p>
<p> </p>
<blockquote class="ipsBlockquote">
<p> </p>
<p>Robert Allenby isn't the first player to have a disagreement with his caddie. But today, he became one of the few players to actually fire his bag-toter in the middle of a round in a PGA Tour event.</p>
<div> </div>
<div>Allenby has been struggling this year – he's made only seven cuts in 21 starts, and is 180th in the FedExCup points – so no one would blame him for feeling a little stressed as he teed off today in the RBC Canadian Open.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>He opened birdie-birdie – so far, so good – then bogeyed the 12th hole, his third hole of the day. And that's when things started to go south north of the border. Allenby had 150 yards to the green on the par-5 13th hole, his fourth hole of the day, and asked caddie Mick Middlemo for his 7-iron.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Middlemo, who started toting the bag for Allenby earlier this season, argued that 8-iron was the club. Allenby eventually conceded and hit the 8 – right into the creek in front of the green. He wound up with a triple-bogey 8.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>As they played their way to a front-nine 43, the player and caddie got into a discussion that turned heated – and ended up with Allenby firing Middlemo after their ninth hole.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>"I said to him, 'You know this happens every week. This has happened for like the last three or four or five months. We keep making bad mistakes and you're not helping me in these circumstances,'" Allenby said, <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://scoregolf.com/blog/jason-logan/crazy-day-for-allenby-at-rbc-canadian-open/'>according to Canada's Score Golf</a>.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Middlemo "just lost the plot at me. He just told me I could go eff myself," Allenby said. "And I said, 'Look, you need to slow down. I mean just calm down.' And then he just got right in my face as if he wanted to just beat me up."</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Allenby attempted to cool the situation down, he said, but the caddie "just got even closer and closer." At that point, Allenby said, "I just said, 'That's it, you're sacked," and added that Middlemo would never caddie for him again.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>As they completed their first nine, "we walked off and he said some smartass remark to me and I said, 'You don't deserve to be caddying out there,'" Score Golf quoted Allenby as saying. "And he just got right in my face and threatened me, so I said, 'Go.' So he left."</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Allenby carried his bag over to the first tee, and explained to an official that he was suddenly without a caddie. At that point, Tom Fraser, a local school principal who was in the gallery, volunteered to carry the load.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The Alleby-Fraser duo birdied their first hole together, parred the next two, then bogeyed four in a row en route to a 38 and a 9-over 81 that left him at the bottom of the leaderboard. He indicated that he would withdraw before the second round.</div>
