Golfing Fever

Is it just me, or did more people start golfing on a regular basis this year?? I know I did! I went from going every now and then to at least twice a week this summer - I don't know what got into me! Golf has pretty much taken presidence over all other activities - including baseball and hiking! Something about being out on the course, relaxing and spending time with friends...I couldn't seem to get enough this year.

I bought a new driver (swapped my R9 SuperTri for the Burner Superfast 2.0) and I also bought some new irons...I first went with the Mizuno MP-57's but then realized that I wasn't good enough to hit those, haha. So I ended up purchasing the Mizuno MX-1000's and I seem to be doing fairly well with those. Although, the Mizuno JPX-800's are looking pretty tempting as well! If you can't tell, I like the Mizuno irons. I was hitting the Titleist dci981's for a long time and decided to do some research on irons...I found that the Mizuno's were the highest regarded club maker on the tour right now, so I gave them a try.

I'm wondering how long into the winter I'll continue playing this year. I'm not a huge fan of playing in the rain, and the cold isn't any more appealing - but who knows, perhaps I'll buy some winter golf gloves and keep playing till the warm weather comes back!
