Question by : where could I test a large variety of golf clubs for free?
I want to test out a few different drivers with different shafts. Also I am looking for someone there to be able to steer me in the right direction for my club speed and ability not just to sell me the most expensive driver out there. I have heard of something called pro days? where different club manufactures have clubs available to hit at a driving range where you can test out which ones you like best. where could I locate these around the pittsburgh area?

Best answer:

Answer by Curious Sports Fan
Not sure where you are but in Canada you could try Golftown, they have a large selection and have facilities on site where you can actually hit the clubs.

Also any reputable local golf shop should be able to help… most will like you take a handful of clubs to a nearby driving range hit them. They tend to have demo sets for that reason.

Question by : how much trouble can you get into for driving a golf cart into a gated community without permission?
Golf carts are allowed but i don’t live in their, i just like to ride around. My friend told me the code to get in. If you do live their you have to have a tag on your cart that cost 100 dollars, i don’t have one of those either. If i get caught what is the punishment?

Best answer:

Answer by denissnowy
they could confiscate your cart potentially. Chances are they have a raft of rules and fines which are probably extremely high but maybe impossible to enforce. However you are trespassing, so that could be a police matter.

Question by thaicemann2525: What grades and golf scores would i need to play golf at Emory University or a division three school like it?
other schools include NYU, Carnegie Mellon, and other Division Three golf teams. Right now I have a GPA in between 3.7 and 3.8. I have not taken the ACT or SAT yet, but will soon. My handicap is around 8. I am a sophomore who has lettered in golf two years in a row as well as second team all district as a sophomore.

Answer by googie
With a greater number of students applying for college than ever before, most schools are raising the standards for entrance so the SATs scores are significant. As for the golf, the same standard applies. With more students looking to play at the college level the better the competition and the lower the handicap to make the team. We had tryouts for the college golf team more years ago that I care to remember. Alternates were also chosen. We played most of the matches at match play. If one faltered badly, an alternate would take his place at the next competition. At the time I was a 3 handicap and played # 4 on a six man team. Never was bounced and enjoyed the experience immensely. Work hard on the academics as well as the short game and want to see you Numero uno on the team your senior year.

Question by katzy: Billy Payne of Augusta Golf Club, is he out of line speaking out about Tiger?
I mean why doesn’t he just leave it alone. He is a jerk anyway to not let women play on his golf course. What century was he born in. Then commenting on Tiger’s behavior before he plays in the big tournament. If he is so adamant about it then why does he let Tiger play there at all , after all he keeps women off the course. Why not Tiger? What say all you Golf officiators.

Best answer:

Answer by M R
Your argument isn’t coherrent.

If he hit Tiger in the face with a bat, I’d have no problem with it…

Free Speech right?

Question by Amber: Does anyone know how to retrieve a golf club that’s in the bottom/middle of a lake?
I know this sounds impossible, but it happened and the people working at the resort are saying there’s just no way they could get it, the water’s too dirty. Thing is, the club is a Honma edition that they no longer make and well, a club set isn’t a set without all of its clubs. It’s a golfer thing.
Do you know where I can find a professional scuba diver in California in the LA County? or the Orange County? The resort aren’t helping like AT ALL.

Answer by pa
Go to a golf shop and they can help you out. I would say at most, adding a half inch to an inch should be enough for you.

Question by camping nut: Can I use automotive spray paint to paint a metal golf cart?
I would like to paint my golf cart as easily as possible. I dont mind sanding some, but I am more interested in scratch resistant finish. Also I just need a semi shiny finish. Ideally I would like to use a spray can as it would be easiest for me. Any ideas how to go about this?

Best answer:

Answer by Agas
A spray can generally wont give the good shiny finish that you see on (most) cars…if you really want a good finish you should get a proper spray gun for automotive purposes and good auto paint and of course its always a good idea to practice on some spare parts before you do the real thing so that you really know what kind of finish you are going to get from the paint.
