The weather has been to cold to play much golf but we had a PGA Section event this past Monday. 27 holes in the cold and first place in the tournament. It was tough to really feel totally loose given the fact I was playing in three layers of clothing and the temperatures were never above 38 degrees. I haven’t ever felt like I played well in the cold, but maybe I am getting adjusted to the cold Dallas winters as opposed to when I lived in Orlando.

I was really pleasantly surprised at how I hit the new 2010 Titleist CB irons. I am very reluctant to change irons, but my old irons will not conform to the new groove change if I participate in any PGA Tour sanctioned, or USGA qualifier events. I am using the same shaft in the new irons that I have played for the last 10 years, so I know what to expect from them.

Anytime you win a tournament you must putt well. I made several putts outside 8-10 feet, which really will make a huge difference. I have always felt that it is the putts in the 10-25 foot range that can seperate you from the rest of the field.

Probably the last equipment changes I will make for the year will be wedges. I have new ones (with conforming grooves) ready to go, but probably will change only when I have to ! It is too much of an advantage around the green.

Good golfing to everyone for the 2010 year! Let me know how your rounds or tournaments go!
