Golf: Driver Driver bo Driver
So I get home and I see a long cardboard box that looks like it was bent in half. WTH? If it was something other than a golf club I wouldn’t really care but nooo so I was pretty much expecting busted ass club after opening up the box.
To my surprise, the club didn’t show any signs of damage. took a few swings, launched Rolo a few feet, then tried to put the head cover on…
If the deployment isn’t too bad tomorrow, I think I’ll try and hit a few balls at the range tomorrow.
[UPDATE 8/9]
So I finally get to use my driver this weekend. I hooked myself up with two buckets of balls, and to properly Christen my new Taylormade Burner driver. The Burner I demo’ed at Willows before was a 10.5, so I don’t expect my balls to get as much as as I did because the driver I ended up getting was a 9.5.
First few hits….crap….even worse I was at the very end of the driving range so a few balls hit the wall scared the shit out of some of the other golfers…ooops. After a while I start getting into it and getting some good hits….I change the rubber tee height to see if that made a difference and it did. I basically hit shitty for the rest of the bucket.
One dood behind me was like….”Hey….so I’m going to offer you some unsolicited advice…don’t listen to what your buddies say and take some lessons…” I don’t think I was THAT bad but oh well dood was just trying to help. He probably just heard me cussing non-stop under my breath.
So I’ll probably look into maybe taking a lesson or two…..I was hoping to avoid taking lessons at all and hoped I could just “figure it out” like I did when I started out snowboarding…
