    Anyone checking out "Full Swing" on Netflix? It's basically a "documentary" following the PGA/LIV and more. It just dropped today. Just finished watching the first few episodes and I think it's pretty good. Can't wait to catch up on the action over the coming days...

    Does anyone else follow the PGA? Awesome to see Kitayama win today. Also, been following LIV (gasp) and have been impressed with competition to the PGA. Hoping to get tickets to a US event.

    Let's hear all the haters...

    Usually watch the bigger events. I don't watch much of LIV, simply because I don't pay attention to the 1 random time they play here and there but I don't mind it. Competition is always a good thing.

    Agreed. I'm just a golf whore and enjoy all the events. The field today was pretty crazy with all the back and forth. If Kitayama hadn't gone 9 under, it would have been one hell of a playoff though...

    I enjoyed watching Kitayama win this weekend, it was exciting.

    I’m new to golf as of last August but I’m pretty obsessed with it already. Got some great free clubs from a friend who has been in it for years and have been watching golf every chance I can haha.

    went to the driving range yesterday and was somewhat able to dial in straight shots and even managed a 250ish yard drive. Also took a ton of time playing with the irons because holy crap those are hard to hit right…

    i am so bad but I love it so much, makes no sense lol

    I'm the opposite. Pretty damn confident with irons and almost surgical with my wedges. Driver/woods are a different story though. Definitely need to get some driver/wood specific lessons this year.

    Ended up playing on Friday. Did okay. Usually shoot in the low 80's, but skulled a couple out of the sand that wasted 4 or 5 total strokes. My GIR is actually better than shown, just need to be more diligent about telling the Garmin S62 that I made the green since it doesn't pick up chips/putts very well. Need to get the C10 sensors.

    Haha I’m doing my best to show some restraint but holy crap it’s so much fun

    I need to play an actual round and score myself. I’ve just played best ball with buddies of mine and I’m almost never the best ball haha!

    Speaking of golf, I have a set of PXG 0211 ST Irons I'm looking to sell. Have the end of last year on them. Bought them new and regrouped them straight from PXG. 4-PW

    Damn. Almost exactly what I'd need except S instead of XS. What are you thinking price wise?

    Paid $800 last year. I'd do $575 plus shipping. Don't think you'd tell too crazy much difference in the Elevated Tour shafts having XS. I'm not a fast swinger. Going to stay with PXG, probably go with the Gen 5 tour if I sell these.

    Dang, that's tempting. Hard to say if I'd notice or not. Using S now, but am between R and S. Used a set of rental clubs while traveling last year and loved the R shafts (gave me more height). With S shafts and 2⁰ of extra loft, I still have a relatively flat path. Also hard to justify a 5th set of clubs, haha.
