    its actually a pretty serious sport man!! fun too. they are pro's and they have alot of different championships, and they even have the world championships. and the effort involved is no where near that bozo stuff:D. you gotta have speed, make good judgement calls, basicaslly the same as regular golf, but more strenuous.......and we dont ride around in golf carts. good exercise too.

    yeah these guys are professionals. However it depends on how good you are in order to make any money. Tops is like anywhere from 24,000- 33,000 a year. thats in professionals. most have regular day jobs though.

    Nice Neon! $1100 is a little out of my price range though. I might wait till the end of the season and get some older model for cheap.

    Hey Rick, how do you like your X18's? I saw some at a golf town here for half price. Nice looking big stick you got there.

    Thats the best way to go. I played ten years with a $70 set from Wal-Mart. If I bought real clubs, I'm afraid I may take myself seriously. I know myself and that would suck any fun of golf out of me in a hurry. Thats why i still play in flip-flops. I'm just there to have fun.

    Has lots of Golf Digest, etc ratings and have to say this is by far the best course I have been on. for $150 a round I should bloody well hope so!! It tamed me with a 95 sadly. What was really wild was I was able to get a single walk-on booking the day after I seen it. Then lo and behold I was paired up with two gay dudes claiming to be 'brothers'. Glad I had my own cart!! Quite a few innuendos about strokes and balls....:eek: It was both a great day and a weird day for golfing www.greywolfgolf.com

    Oh man that course looks awesome. I have wanted to golf there for a few years now...I usually make it to Panarama every summer to do some mountain biking. I just golfed Mt. Kidd at Kananaskis on Saturday. The two courses there are amazing, and you can't beat the price - $85 with cart for Alberta residents. http://www.kananaskisgolf.com/
