    Golf irons... what to buy?

    Will your irons last another year? If so might I suggest you spend some money on lessons (I like Mark Egly at Des Moines driving range) and spend some time at the range this year and then get fitted next year by a local fitter. I did it the opposite way and had to get my lie angle and shafts...

    Looking for a two-burner grill

    I have a really old two burner that is destined to the scrap yard. Still worked two years ago, but needs a really good cleaning. It also comes with two empty propane tanks. Free, but it is in Ames and I can't transport it.

    2022 Masters

    And whatever you think of me, you should know that Zach hates old people, children and dogs. And that broad is still out here crying in the exit room.

    What’s In the Bag? ***GOLF EQUIPMENT THREAD***

    I ordered my Mizunos two months ago, no ship date in site. I see people on golf forums with order dates after me that have gotten their new clubs in under six weeks. My order is a standard shaft that Mizuno offers and just bent upright a couple of degrees. I know Mizuno has had all kinds of...

    ***Official 2022 Weather Thread***

    This has always bothered me. If you go by the 10 day forecast you think 'okay, 22 for the low on Wednesday, I can send my daughter to the bus stop without her snow pants'. But if you click on the hourly you see that it will be -15 at 7 AM and cold as shite. Hell, it doesn't even get to 22...

    Two United Club one-time passes -- Free

    Probably the wrong forum for this, but I have two United Club one-time passes that expire on the 18th of September. You need an United boarding pass to use them and a layover at, or flying from an Airport that has a lounge. Does anybody want them that is traveling this week? If so send me a...

    ***Official 2021 Weather Thread***

    This has been bothering me forever and I can't get an actually answer from anyone. So I am asking for the collective wisdom of the board. How/when are low temps determined for the day? Weather.com has the Ames forecast for tomorrow 7 for the high and -1 for the low. If you go to the hourly...

    What Will You Spend Your $1,000 Stimulus On?

    I read that the Ames Chamber of Commerce is signing up local business to a gift certificate program that if people purchase $20 certificates from them the Chamber will add $10 to it to make it $30. I am guessing that most of ours will go towards that program.

    NFL: the Getting assaulted with your own helmet brawl

    During high school, I played junior hockey and still hold two league records: most time spent in the penalty box; and I was the only guy to ever take off his skate and try to stab somebody.
