Steelwood CC

Posted by LSUfan4444 on 8/23/26 at 7:33 am

Playing on Tuesday with a group consisting of me (11), a 14 who rarely RARALY plays and is probably closer to an 18 than a 13, a 6 who isn't very long and an 8.

Our home course is 6200ish and I am trying to decide on the blue (6600) or white (6100) tees at Steelwood. When I travel I usually prefer to enjoy myself than just grind hitting driver long iron all day so leaning white tees but was curious what others might think.

The 5i rule for me would have me playing white tees without question.

Bike, e-bike, scooter, etc down the levee and it's easy in and out to and from the game.

There have been very very few LSU athletes in all sports I root for once they leave LSU. Shaq, Ben McDonald, Kevin Faulk, Joe Burrow, Todd Walker and maybe a few others but when the vast majority leave, I stop "rooting" for them. I don't necessarily want them to fail and hope they find happiness and success but the attachment ends once they leave for most and Daniels was in the "most" for me, Heisman or not.

My gf (no pics) informed me she wants to get married and have children together and asked me to quit smoking weed for 90 days I guess to prove that I can go without it.

She's asking you to go without it for her, not you. Be alert my friend and my suggestion is to communicate your struggles with her, explain to her your feelings on where you can agree.

This is no way to start a marriage and family,

Most places waive the fitting fee if you buy clubs from them so it’s really a win win if you’re buying clubs already.

Sure, if you want to buy a brand new set of clubs, as a beginner at a premium price.

Most beginners and high handicapper would do better with a used set of clubs from Callaway Pre-Owned and a 6 pack of lessons.

When you are consistently putting the ball in the fairway with driver off the tee and can go to a 3w at times when needed, that's the time to get fitted for driver and fairway woods to maximize distance and control once you have that consistent accurate swing in place.

As far as irons, stick with game improvement irons with regular flex steel shafts until you're somewhere around a 10 index and can hit at least 6 GIR per round.

Putter, go by feel

Wedges, no need to get fit

Unless you have money to burn that is and don't care about the benefits but no reason to get fitted until you are consistent in certain parts of your game because as your swing becomes more consistent, you'll likely need new a new fit and new clubs.

re: Hotels near NRG stadium

One time, it took one time of me staying in the medical district, taking the train to and trying to rideshare back after the event at NRG, NEVER AGAIN.

Stay close to NRG and make your game, concert, event evenig easier and use the train into other places of the city in the day(s) preceding the event and during the day. NRG is a logistical landlocked shite-show.
