Anybody still on here regularly? Played 18 the other day, 37 on the front, 53 on the back. Had four 7.0% IPAs, which is what I blame for the loss in form. Gamed my steel shafted 983k and averaged 245 off the tee, with pretty decent accuracy. Was 5/7 on the front for fairway hits. Long...

Sorry for the delayed response! I haven't been shooting in a really long time, I think it's approaching a year. I have been very happy with it. I have probably ran about 2,000 rounds through it, all but 4 of them flawlessly. I had a box of Remington UMC 9 that created 4 failures to feed. As...

It has been a long time since I have posted...I think the last post was about upgrading my grips from magwell to flush fit, but then Sandy Hook happened and I couldn't find magazines anywhere. Had Midway USA send me an update when the magazines were available, and snagged 2 before they sold out...

Where in NC? I know there's maybe one or two other dudes that used to frequent this forum from NC, wonder if they're still around. I think it was juicyj or something like that?

That's the only ammo that I've ever had an issue with. I had about 4 failures to feed out of a single box, and it happened in 2 of my guns (Sig P226, Sig P290). No issues with Winchester White Box, Winchester Hollow, Federal, Magtech, but my gun(s) had issues with the Remington ammo. Here's...

I did see about 20 boxes of 9mm at Walmart, but they were the 50 round packs for $14.99, and even that's more than I would prefer to pay. I probably still have about 18 100 packs of Federal that they used to sell for $20, so I'm comfortable for a while. Just too bad I don't own anything that...

It has been a long time since I've posted on here, and I haven't really been keeping up with the ammunition supply, so I figured I would post this here just as a heads up in case anybody was interested.... At my local Walmart (Johnston County, NC), 2 cases: I still haven't seen much 9mm...

Haven't been on here in a while, figured I would post my latest addition, plus new pictures of what's currently in my safe. The newest pistol - Ruger Mark III Tapered Barrel In addition to this, The Ultimate Clip Loader - makes me feel not as guilty about doing mag dump after mag dump. Can...

Do people still lurk this thread? The last time I shot sub 90s was in June. I developed the shanks in late June/early July, and could not fight them. I didn't lift a club in August. I came out to play earlier this month and shot something like a 110 with a ton of mulligans. Came out the...

If you're looking for V2 Gamers, check woot.com occasionally. I saw a daily woot for these once, and then they were on sellout.woot so I bought 6 dozen for $60...

Reading this instantly reminded me of this group of guys at 24 Hour Fitness who used to load up an easy curl bar with about 200 pounds, get on the preacher curl, have a spotter sit there, and move the bar a few inches while practically screaming. Not even full range of motion, just a few inches.

Another good credit card to consider - American Express Blue Cash...I have the older version that is no longer available - I get 5% back on gas/groceries/drug store purchases, and that earning % is constant throughout the year so long as my annual spending exceeds $6,500 (easy). I think the...

I guess that is a common misconception about them.  The short answer is no. I have 125K on the older one, and I am currently getting 53 MPG.  They are configured to maximize the life of the traction battery, it would be !*#@%%# ******ed if they made it so the batteries had to be replaced every...

Best cars I've ever owned, and we put a lot of miles on them.  My wife has a 100 mile round trip commute 5x a week for work, and I have about a 66 mile round trip 5x a week.  Add extra curricular driving, and it comes out to a high average per year.  We bought the 2008 brand new in 11/2007 and...
