Fantastic job Steph! I'm so happy you kicked their butts with a pink ball, that is probably even better than finishing birdie-birdie! Hmmm, what will I do if someone beats me with a pink ball . . .

It Is a Really Good Ball, Too

Thanks much.

I use the Precept Lady S III Tour (Paula Creamer's ball). It is a special edition in pink and is a 3-piece ball with a urethane cover. It is a tour quality ball. Great distance with enough spin to stick on anything but rock hard greens. It has a nice medium trajectory and you can see that pink sucker for miles!

I didn't doubt it was a good ball. You seem to take a very intelligent approach to your golf.

Well, Maybe

I have to admit I shotgunned this one a little. I was enamored with the idea that the Lady S III Tour could be a pink tour quality ball. I fell prey to the endorsement disease: Paula plays it therefore it must be good for my game! LOL! Ordered some and tried them. I got lucky. They really are good balls and do fit my swing. It is a shame that they don't have them in white anywhere I have seen because I would recommend them to you guys. You could play the Pink, but you must have alot of self confidence to do so. :shock: :toothy1:

Thanks. I know what you mean about the bad bounces. I took a triple on the back nine Saturday on a par 3 when I hooked a tee shot, wind caught it and blew it way left of the green, and it hit the cart path never to be seen again. I might have lost it anyway, but the cart path stuff just steams me.

nine's are dangerous

steph be proud of that nine(i'm at 8.4) ..at times we are the burr in those 1-4's.. when i was playing in my cc i kept wondering when it was my turn cause you see all this carnage around you...but thats whats fun about seeing how you react to new situations...:happy3:

Sorry, I did not write some of that well. My women's index is currently a +0.2, but my men's equivalent index is 5.3 (I use a spreadsheet to keep the men's and the SCGA does the women's). I had roughly the 3rd or 4th lowest index of those who played in the tournament. Given my index it was not unreasonable that I could win, but most folks would consider the courses too long for me to have a chance unless they knew how far I can hit the ball. Length off the tee these days allows me to play reasonably well out to 6700 - 6900 yards as long as the slope isn't too crazy.
