My New Driver

So I bought myself a new driver. Not really to replace the one I have, but just as a test club and a spare. I got the new FT-5 iMix, <- check out the website. This is a cool new product that we just released. It allows me to change shafts or club heads as I wish.

So if I am playing a short tight course, I could take an FTi head and a shorter shaft and make a very straight and dependable driver. If I am playing a more wide open course, I could take an FT-5 head and a longer shaft to get more distance.

Or I can even take it to the next level. If its cold, I could use a softer flex driver to help attain more height. On wet days, use a driver head with more loft to increase my carry. On windy days get a shorter stiffer lower lofted driver to hit low penetrating shots. As you can see the options are endless...

Currently all I have is one head and one shaft. But I am planning on having about 5 to 6 shafts shortly. Don't know when I will be getting another head though. Kind of waiting for the new FTi LCG head in a fade configuration. I just hook the normal one TOO much.

Anyways, here it is:




Isn't she a beauty...

Great Callaway Video

So here is a movie that they filmed about the process we take to make our golf balls at work. They spent a full day going through and filming us. Sorry... I am not in it, only our prototyping crew.

But its a good watch and you can see the full process from start to finish. Just click on the Callaway Logo below, the video is in the lower right hand corner.

My Logitech Harmony One

So I got a Logitech Harmony One Universal Remote. This thing is awesome! I spent about 5 minutes setting it up and about 20 minutes customizing it.


The cool part is the multi-function buttons on the touch screen lcd. I have programed in "PLAY A DVD", you just press this button and the TV turns on, the DVD turns on, the stereo turns on, and it will even press play for me. Hit "Watch TV", and the DVD player turns off, the stereo turns off, the TV's input turns to the cable box, and the cable box turns on. This thing can even control a remote control HVAC system, light systems, pretty much anything that has a remote...

This thing is just phenomenal. Best part is that it was Slick Nater's best deal ever!

So Spring is Nice

This weekends weather was just AWESOME! It was 75 on Fri, 78 on Sat and 81 today. I got to play golf on Fri and Sat. Haven't played 2 days in a row since I was back up north. We played CrossCreek in Temecula on Friday. Tough little course if you are spraying it everywhere, like I was. Good thing I can scramble...

Its a little hilly course with some really good vista views.





Had to par the last 2 tough holes to break 80, but I did it with a great up and down at the hole just above. Followed up with a text-book play on 18.

HELLO SPRING!

NEW TV!!!

Finally the writers are back to work and we have some new television to watch! Monday night was the premiere of our favorite show How I Met Your Mother. The show is awesome, kind of reminds me of Friends.

Anyways if you missed the best show on tv, you can watch it here:

HIMYM S3E12 - No Tomorrow

Or watch it if your bored at work, whatever...

The Crossings at Carlsbad

I just wanted to show everyone what I drive by everyday. I have never had a chance to play it, but it looks really nice. It weaves through the canyons around my work.

I am going to try and at least play nine holes a week this summer. But we will see how that goes with my busy work schedule.

TOUR Update

So if you haven't been paying attention to the golf world (and who hasn't...), our TOURi golf balls won on the PGA and LPGA Tours last week! Ernie Els pulled a victory out finally and Lorena Ochoa killed everyone in Asia. She shot 20 under for the tournament, which was 11 shots better than 2nd place. And if you think she beat a bunch of no names, think again, Annika was in 2nd. DAMN! With Annika and Lorena playing the TOURi series, we could have quite a few victories this year.

Enough talk about our top of the line balls. We all know these kick ass, but I am also proud of what we designed for the Top-Flite brand. The Gamer is a ball that I would play any time of the year. And they have some of the best marketing in the business!

D2 Man makes it to company functions every now and then. Pretty funny stuff...
