Which Costco? I checked Okotoks yesterday and all they had was the wedges. I'm hoping to find one of the putters in Left.

You can get them online as well, order the weight adjustment kit while you're at it.

I couldn't find them on the costco.ca and when I tried to order on costco.com, it wouldn't seem to let me ship to Canada.

Sorry, I didn’t realize when I quoted it that there was the putter video as well. I only saw the wedges and it was the Balzac Costco

I can't justify all three, but I go up to gap wedge 49 degrees, and would love to add one more lob or sand wedge.

I'm really excited though, as after years of meddling golf, I've now had a +1 first nine, and today a +1 back nine. I don't want to get ahead of myself but with a membership for the first time in my life, I think I can make really great strides this season.
Sometimes you can have a fluke few holes, but I don't think two +1 nine holes runs are a fluke, I think things are coming together.

The putters were on .ca a few days ago, but seem to be gone now.
Maybe they removed them once out of stock.

I played 9 at Silverwing. It was supposed to be 18, but it was painfully slow and we quit after nine. To call it a goat track would be too kind. I know it’s $25, and that’s an unreal deal, but it’s in super rough shape. The irrigation was ruined there, and while it’s been fixed, it’s incredibly dry. Like there is no green. The greens themselves are basically terrible. I’m not sure how else to describe it.
Not saying it’s not a good price, and it was still somewhat fun. But just know in advance what you’re in for. At that price it brings everyone out, which means a lot of beginners.

I find golf to be even harder psychologically when you're playing well. When you're off, you just drink with friends, enjoy the sun and hit some good shots with some bad.
When you're on and making progress, everything changes. Suddenly you can nail four holes for par in a row and then that dunked drive on the next hole makes you want to throw your driver into the water with your ball.

Shot 85 at heritage this aft. Was in ok shape for the early season.
Highlight of the round was definitely on hole 5 or 6 on pointe (the par 4 where you tee off up on the hill) and a water line must have burst as water was gushing out of the ground like it was struck oil on the path!

Barry ran it into the ground. It's going to take a couple years to get it back.

Ya I played 18 at Silverwing on Tuesday and it was pretty brutal. Definitely going to take a lot of work to get the course back in a decent state

played Serenity on Tuesday. Pretty good conditions for this time of year. Suncatchers greens were surprisingly fast. First round of the year 88. my best first round ever. was tentative in the begining as I had few Cortisone shots in my shoulder a few months ago. Happy there was no pain!

I'd say more than alot of work, I'm thinking atleast a year of pretty intense work, if not more. I drive by it everyday and nobody did anything with it at all last year, with the excpetion being the one green after all the rain they left it under water for 3 weeks then drained a little bit of water. $25 for 18 is a good price but yeah courss is in awful shape.

Weather looks like it should be nice this week. Have an afternoon round booked for Wednesday. May try for another Friday.
Hoping the trees start blooming here soon.
