Nic pics...

BTW, who is the player using the TM 300 Forged irons?

I saw MANY people with them in the bag.. That pic with the teal/gree/blue headcover was Todd Fischer. Pat Perez, Tommy Armour 3, Fischer and Oberhourser were having a GREAT time together... Joking on the tee with each other a BUNCH. Great time.

Site should be back up now. Let me know if you have any problems seeing them pics!

Thanks!

Wow, thanks for that. I have been using Opera to view, and I just tried it in IE.. Now, to figure out how the hell to fix that... LOL

The layout of the pics gave me vertigo trying to scroll up and across to see the pics....:cookoo:

It is interesting to see all those TM 300 series irons though despite all the so-called new technologies in irons.

BTW, did you see Robert Thompson in the pro-am? He is supposed to be paried with Todd Fischer according to his blog.

LOL.. I found out what was happening. When I was entering the code from the server to the post, I was not spacing between the entries... LOL I never thought about using that "inferior" IE to test the pics.. LOL ;)

I was there for the practice round Tuesday. The Pro-Am is Wednesday. Those 300's are really nice sticks. VERY soft... Guy at my course has Tour Issued 300's (He doesn't know that, though and he picked them up for a SONG.) Iron tech. has not really changed THAT much pver the last dozen or so years... Especially in the quasi-blade/muscle-cavity back area..

Great job on the pics Portis. Reminds me of GolfWRX with all the pics of the gear the players ACTUALLY use.
I would have followed Arron Oberholzer as well. Great swing.

Thanks, Will. That is what I was going for. I am an equipment junkie. I didn't try for auto's or many swings... But line me up some bags and I am good to go..(Wow, that sounded bad!!)

Thanks again for the kind words, guys!

Did they have any restrictions on photo gear? I'm gonna be at the President's Cup next year for photo ops during the practice and plan on lugging a couple cameras. :D

Nope. There were guys with HUGE honkin' cameras.. People walking around with a camera, and someone following them with a tripod bigger than me!

M Portiss, great pictures.

Who was the player with the Titleist 5i that had been sanded down so you couldn't clearly read that it was a Titleist iron?

That was Tommy Armour III. It was lead tape, believe it or not... Talk about bumping swingweights.. LOL
