  And a trivia quiz for all the old timers ...

  On which CTTH course can you hit driver off the fairway lie and actually have it perform as if it were on a tee ? And why is it set up this way? They've never changed it ... and if I'm not mistaken, you never get a headwind on these two holes ... there are two of them on the same course. The strange thing about it is, if you hit a shot, and the shot goes less than a yard, it tells you that your lie is "tee box" ... when its actually from the fairway on these two holes.

  First correct answer (by an old timer), gets a free sleeve of balls of their choice. You must identify the course, the two holes, and why the set-up is the way it is. 

  A person who has been a member prior to 2010 qualifies as an old timer.

  3 and 8 on bali, because the starter 3wood doesn't go far enough to reach them.

  Can pass the prize along to a true OG fuzzygazz if that is correct :)

   

  And yes 2009/2010 was def a much more fun experience.

   

  Ding ding ding .... right you are ... prize going to Gazz ...

  Couldn't WGT organise tournament/ready go where you're only allowed to use the G10 set and tour balls, they could add them to inventory only for particular tournament??  It would be blast from past and give us all a challenging tournament

  The good old days are what they were. Life goes on, times change, not always for the best but it is what we have today. For many of us we can set back and smile. For many others this is what they have to remember. The current game and what they see. It was not always this way people. The game is still great and the best on the internet. Make your own enjoyment and memories. You cannot relive the past and the few of us who can remember the old days are becoming few and far apart. It is all good, move on and make your own memories.

  Chris, I brought up the same thought  a few years back.  Sigh;  it'll never come to pass. 

  Over the years I've bought the g-10's prolly 4 different times...lol  But sadly, I've gotten rid of them since.
