So does golf ;)
How dare you! You make more business deals, and get more promotions while playing golf, than any other activity..... well, besides sex. :D

Ouch! Dman man that looks bad! Get yourself a glove!

My father just gave me a brand new set of custom made clubs and they rule.
I tried his last year and they felt awesome, so he got me a set of my own. My old clubs were fine, but they didnt fit right.
These are perfect!

I was in Florida for two weeks and the scores I got were as follows:

9 holes - 77
9 holes - 63
18 holes - 57/52
18 holes - 52/47
9 holes - 47

First game is always bad, i sued to hit in the range of 65 to 70 all the time, with the new clubs and their length, my scores are down by almost 20 strokes or more!

I never use gloves.... and I have never had a blister like that.... I dunno why it happened this time :(

I was first team (in our conference) my junior and senior year in high school. (2nd my Junior year and 3rd my senior year overall)

i think you're holding your clubs too hard.. supposed to hold the clubs like it's a bird, but you dont' want it to escape.. that's what i was taught anyway.. and i've never got blisters.. but i use a glove

I have never had that problem before. I am not one who grips my clubs lightly either. Granted I kind of have to since I swing upwards of 110MPH with a driver.

The only time I ever got a blister like that is when I bought a glove that was too big so it slid around on my a bit.

I got out the weekend before last, and man was I sore after.

I wish we could golf year round here... my golf muscles are soooooooo out of shape. :(

It's usually only my ribs and thumb that are sore after playing the first time in a while. Sometimes the front of my feet right below my shins are tender as well.

I'd go back to the old clubs!!
