I love hockey, but there are many things that could pull me away from watching the 1st few games in this series. I have decided that I would take the second option of all of these questions and totally miss the finals.

All of these questions pertain to this series – the Pens vs. the Wings.

Would you rather:

1. Watch Game 1 on television OR get Center Ice free for 2 years?

2. Watch Game 2 on television OR get a free cabin in the mountains for a few days?

3. Watch Game 3 on television OR suddenly obtaining the ability to feel energized immediately after opening your eyes in the morning?

4. Watch Game 4 on television OR get a decade supply your most beloved beverage?

5. Watch Game 5 on television OR win an all expenses paid, 1 week long cruise to Jamaica?

6. Watch Game 6 on television OR get a set of Honma golf clubs?

7. Watch Game 7 on television OR acquire a free 2008 boat of your choice under 30′?

Please Explain.

Some clubs make your jaw drop when you see what they cost. Others get that result when you see what they do. It was the later that happened to me. I was playing with my friend Tom. He was about 190 yards from the green. He pulled out his new hybrid and made a smooth, effortless swing. The ball launched beautifully, sailed true and landed softly in the middle of the green. And Tom stinks!

He looked at me and my wobbly jaw, then at his club, and said, “These things shouldn’t be legal; you can’t miss.”

Next week there was a hybrid in my bag. But contrary to Tom, you can miss. The clubber will always determine what the club does. But if ever there was a club to give you more of that feeling of, “Yes, I can play this game.”, then the hybrid is it.

The golf magazines and equipment gurus definitely recommend them. All the golf club makers produce them, and for good reason: they work.

Hybrid utility clubs are a cross between a fairway wood and a long iron, with similarities to both. They are designed to launch the ball up in the air from long distances and tough lies.

Hybrids move the center of gravity back and to the bottom of the club, which is nearly impossible with a standard iron. What this does is help to launch the ball into the air. Hybrids also have a flatter face than a wood and a higher launch angle. This gives the ball a higher spin rate, which allows it to stop faster with more accuracy.

Shaft length on a hybrid is closer to an iron than a wood. The bottoms often have runners or rails, which helps improve turf interaction, whether it is long rough, short fairway or sand. Hybrids also get the leading edge of the face closer to the ground so players can get the ball up fast, even from heavy lies.

Their lofts vary from 16 to the mid 20 degrees like the longer irons. The 3 iron is often the first club replaced with a hybrid. The faithfully converted then often replace their 4 and 5 irons with higher lofted hybrids.

To get the best result from the rough, it helps to understand how woods and hybrids are different. From short rough, the flat bottom on the 3- or 5-wood skids easily through the grass–even easier than a middle iron. But in thicker rough, the heavier club head mass and smaller, more compact head of the hybrid helps keep the club head stable as it plows through the deeper grass. Most hybrids also have more loft than fairway woods. This helps get the ball up and away from the deeper grass.

Hybrids are suited for everyone, from touring pros and scratch golfers to the out-and-out duffer. Look in the bag of most pros on tour, and you’ll see a hybrid. But these clubs can actually help the higher handicapped golfer the most, especially players who have lost swing speed due to age, injury or other conditions that have prevented them from making a full shoulder turn on the backswing.

Hybrids allow for a shorter back swing while launching the ball the same distance typically experienced with a wood. The long narrow face and wide sole of hybrid clubs use a low center of gravity, which helps players with slower swing speeds launch the ball with less effort. This makes a hybrid club similar to playing a wood in that it lends itself to the sweeping style of swing. With a long iron, a player often has to try and pick the ball off the turf, usually with much greater effort.

Hybrids are extremely versatile. They can be used from the fairway, rough or tee. They are really easy to hit, even off tight lies. They are designed for distance control and accuracy, but you can work them any way you like. Not only will you see longer distances from the hybrid, you should see more accuracy because the hybrid allows for a greater margin for error. They are definitely more forgiving on miss-hits. The days of buying the typical set of clubs, 3 woods and 8 irons, are over. Today, golf bags everywhere are filled with hybrids.

So, if you want distance, high trajectory plus ease of use, go for the hybrids. They come in all prices, and it’s money well spent. They are a great stroke saver. Plus, it’s a lot of fun to watch you playing partner’s jaw drop when you hit a good one.

I’m trying to look out on ebay for nice used balls so i dont have to dish out the big bucks everytime i go to hit the back 9. Thanks in advance.

Goddess Raincloud asked:


My bf works as maintenance for a department store that sits 20 feet from the fence surrounding a golf course. Every week he has to do work on the roof, and each time he finds enough golf balls to fill at least one pocket. Needless to say, after four months he has quite the collection of golf balls.

He has a bunch of different types (brands) of golf balls, and some of them have the golf course name printed on them. Are these technically property of the course? Or since they have been hit out of bounds are they free to take?

Also another question, just for fun: What do you think he should do with these? He doesn’t golf but is thinking of borrowing a club from a friend and hitting them into the lake. I think that’s a waste and polluting to boot. Why not hit them back where someone else can find them, if you’re gonna hit them at all? What do you think he should do with his huge bucket of golf balls?

Mike asked:


We are planning a trip in April or May to celebrate our first-born.
I would love to play some golf.
We are on a budget, so nothing over $100, preferably a couple of good courses in the $50s. I am decent player, and not scared of a good challenge.
There is a million courses near Myrtle, so any help would be appreciated. Please share your experiences, a little about the course, cost, telephone number or website.
Thanks a bunch!

This is an 18 hole golf course that I need to come up with a different contest on each hole. I have been asked to not use the same premise more than twice. So longest drive, longest putt, closest to the pin are going to be 6 of the holes. I am also going to do closest to marker in fairway. I just need some more ideas. Thanks is advance.
