girlfriend driver?
So I won a small local tournament and got a 250 dollar pro shop voucher. It's my girlfriend's birthday soon and I was just wondering what I can get for a driver in that sort of price range. My shop can order any brand in, and will match any brick and mortar store prices (no exclusively online retailers) any ideas? To complicate things a little more, she's a lefty.
Thanks
_skjay

Lefty Girlfriend as well in here.
She' using a Ping Rhapsody now an she' very happy with it. Very long driver, great for low sing speed and extremely thin girls lol.

We were deciding between the Ping and a TM Burner as well, so I'm sure you'll go great with an of both options.

If you want to go with something cheaper, A Nike Sasquatch or a Ping G5 are going for $199 at golfsmith...

Cheers

If you want to be funny (and I know you do) then at least try to make sense. Try to keep your inane ramnblings somewhat confined to the realm of sanity. It helps those of us who are trying to help you.

It puts commas after parentheses, or it gets the hose!

I had a new 10 degree Callaway Big Bertha driver that apparently was defective ('cause I couldn't hit it). After another 200 yard slice with the club, i threw it as far as I possibly could. Oh yeah, I smiled like a little girl as I watched this evil club bounce and slam for 50 yards. Hmmm, it was nice! Oh, anyways, upon retrieving this obviously defective club, I handed it to my wife. She now hits it dead straight and about 250 yards so I have to vote for the Callaway for your lady, just remember to throw it really hard before giving it to her.

One time my dad dropped me out of the cart, and by drop, pushed me out while it was moving

Anyway, I fell on my driver and heard a little crack (ferrule glue cracked), my next 3 drives were the best all day.

Wow, are you in counseling? I mean, my father threw me out of a speeding car when I was a kid but what dad hasn't done that? But a golf cart??? That's just wrong on so many levels!

Well, anyone who knows me knows I probably started it. Which I did. I was trying to push him out, actually.

Naturally he pushes back to get me off of him so he can drive and kerplunck!
