What did you buy today?

[azgreg]

How about a thread about what you bought today? I'm thinking about equipment found on the used market. Craigslist, EBay, pawn shops, etc.

I'll start. I went into Play It Again Sports primarily to buy some used tennis balls (.25 each) for my dog. As usual I wander over to the clubs and I found something.





And the most important pic:

I scored a brand new set of Rifle Project X 5.5's about a week ago for $68. This was my 3rd set I've won, the previous 2 I paid similar amounts for and promptly sold the for twice what I paid. These are also for sale right now.

So, Greg, you went to PIA to buy used tennis balls for your dog. Instead, you bought him a used putter. What handicap does your dog play to??? Does he play from the regular tees or the forward tees? Can he pass a tree on the course without raising his leg? What about the flagsticks?

I picked up a like new Rossie in about 1995 or so. My daughter was dating my now son-in-law and he just had to have that Rossie. It has not left his bag since. Every season, he talks about looking for a new putter. Yet, he hasn't found one that he says putts as well. Yep... SIL still has the same putter in his bag since '95. A brother-in-law "stole" one of my old Ping Anser 5Ks putters that I hated in about 1992 or '93 and still bags that one. Sheesh! I've had the same putter in the bag most of this one season and that's a record for me. Don't see how some of these guys can get along with one putter for years and years and years and .............

She plays from the reds.


P.S. I got the tennis balls as well. She goes through about 4 a week.

A Tee time

Scotty pistolero grip. I can close my eyes and feel like im swinging a 300.00 putter for 16.00

The pistolero goes on this center shafted metalx 7

 

[azgreg]

Nice.

Picked up a couple of wedge heads (54° and 60°) from DTG. I built up the 54 today (waiting on a shaft for the 60) with a FST 115 shaft and GP Tour Velvet grip.






I think these are going to work out really well. The lofts will fit in nicely with my rebuilt Maltby TE set (PW is at 48°).

You must be reading my mind, I've been kicking around getting some new wedges and was looking at DTG. How does it feel?

 

[azgreg]

I've only swung it around in my living room so far. Not sure when I'm going to be able to hit some balls with it. The head is a little larger then the wedges I'm using now, but I don't believe it will have any effect. Shyt, for $16 I couldn't go wrong.

 

[TrickyPutt]

Smooth butter right there. I like the soles. What loft?

54 & 60. I'd like to see a little more bounce but they look sweet!
