| 841.4 | what winter! | GRANPA::RFAGLEY | | Fri Feb 09 1990 13:29 | 18 |
| Wow... what a day! It was 60 degrees in Berkley Springs WV. yesterday.
I rounded up two of my golf partners and we made the 110 mile drive to
Cacapon Golf. Cacapon is a Robert Trent Jones layout, par 72. Armed
with my newest creation (GSI Gold shaft 9.5 degree driver) and a fresh
dose of sybervision Mike Dunaway on *POWERDRIVING*. We hit the first
tee in bright sunshine. I shot the front in 44 butchering every chip,
and hammering putts past the hole. The back produced a bird and a
score of 40 again with a lousy short game.
The driver or Dr. Mike get responsibility for an excellent tee game,
I'm not sure which! And the 2-iron was pure all day (who needs fairway
woods...).
My partners scored 93 and 107(haw,haw,haw) and dinner was free!
NOW THAT'S WINTERLF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| 841.5 | There must be a rule?? | WALTA::LENEHAN | | Fri Feb 09 1990 13:53 | 18 |

Now Rick you know the rules !!!
You are not allowed to express so much enjoyment over a round of
golf.... while others are suffering it out waiting for the bell to
start the season. ;)
Now cut it out!
tick, tick ,tick ... can't it go faster?
Walt
By the way, how do you like using the 2 iron? Do you feel it is more
controllable than using a fairway wood. I just sent for a 1 iron and 2
iron, but have never used either before. I plan on dropping the 5 wood
and 60 degree wedge...

| Walt,
I worked my butt off to get comfortable with the 2-iron. I don't use a
1-iron because I'm scared of it after the effort it took to relax with
the 2. I spent an entire season slapping my fingers away from my 5 and
3 woods and getting the 2-iron out instead. It's a much nicer club in
the wind, and I can use my "easier to repeat" iron swing plane because
of the shorter shaft length. I began using it when, in ProAm's I saw
the Pro's go to it. Most of the Pro's I've played with carry a driver
and a 4-wood, and use as a 14th club a lob wedge (60-degree). The 2-iron
is about a 220 yard club for me, and I keep it straighter these days than
I did my woods. The biggest failing is an inability to bust it out of
deep rough (that's what the 4-wood is for). Nothing feels quite like a
well hit 2-iron shot off the fairway. It's a real golf shot when you hit
it well. I think the rush is better than sex. My partners stand around
shaking their heads oooing and aaahing when I pure it. It's also useful
for "safe" tee shots when the driver leaves me, or the course gets narrow.
Sorry for the salt in the wounds... just had to tell someone...

yelling "Ya!!"
So... I guess it's just like sex! ;)
