Little Help Over Here?

Dear Unscratchers,

After seeing the results of my FootJoy MyJoy ICONs, I am thinking about doing some MyJoy spikeless shoes for around the clubhouse - and, really, just for wearing around shoes.

So, at any rate, I am asking you guys for some advice.  I am thinking about the FootJoy LoPros in UF Gator colors, what do you think?  And even if you hate the Gators, you must admit that the colors look great.

Golf Update? Nah, Blogger Update!

Dear Unscratchers,

Sorry I've been inconsistent the past couple of weeks with the posts.  I promise that I am back on track.  I guess I was just preoccupied by....... a bun in the oven!  OK, I may look like I have one in the oven but I assure you it is Mrs. Unscratch.  Things were hairy there for a bit - and of course you never know what to expect - but currently things are good and the reviews will keep coming.  Thanks for sticking with me, stay posted for Monday's update!!!

Nike Sasquatch Tour Carry Bag

Dear Unscratchers,

I was looking for a new carry bag and am a big fan of the 14 club dividers on bags.  It seems that the best (maybe only) two carry bags with it are the Sun Mountain Four 5 bag and the Nike Sasquatch Tour Carry bag.  After tons of research, I decided on the Nike bag.  This was actually a bit of a surprise to myself as I have always been a fan of Sun Mountain bags.

The bag sells for about $200 but I found it for $150 and free shipping at Discount Golf World.  The bag showed up VERY fast and in perfect shape.  Never used DGW before but can definitely recommend it.

At any rate, the bag is fantastic.  I love the layout and it is not very heavy.  I am especially please because, while I like Nike, I don't have any interest in carrying a bag that has something like SASQUATCH splashed all over it or something.  This just has a simple swoosh, something I can definitely live with.

I plan to walk with it this weekend if the snow that showed up today disappears (I mean, cmon, it was in the mid 60s last week).

Excellent bag so far, I will keep you posted!

FINALLY!!!! My new FootJoy MyJoy ICONS appear!!!!

Dear Unscratchers,
I am very happy to finally be able to review my new MyJoy ICONS.  I got them in the beautiful Large Croc style to rock my UF Gators and they are fantastic (the original spikes were black, luckily I had a hookup to finish them with the awesome blue spikes).

First of all, I haven't yet gotten to play with these babies.  That being said, I can give you some insight:

First, I normally wear a 9.5W in the DryJoys and a 10W in the Contours.  My ICONS (9.5W) at first seemed a bit tight but literally ended up fitting like "butta" (ok I like the Sopranos) after about 10 steps.

They, at least I believe, are OBVIOUSLY beautiful and I hope you agree.  Actually, even if you don't please post, it would help me get my blog traffic up.

At any rate, I hope you like my preview, let me know what details you want!

P.S. The shoes came with black/white spikes, I replaced them with the blue for Gator-represenation.
Also, I welcome any other college representation, let's get some smack talking on here!
