Bloody hell.
hmmm... bet he would've got a nice welcoming when he finally came down...
The missus and I were driving from our place to Teneriffe (sp?) last night for dinner and saw the traffic buildup way back past Kingsford Smith drive ... figured something had to be going on around the Story Bridge somewhere
Rusty was telling me about the great demo nights they have at Vic Park nowadays, sounds like a good night out actually
The last one was great. as it was the proshop opening then had free food and drinks (wine and beer)
I was at Vic Park yesterday and they were advertising a Titliest Demo Day on May 1st from 4-8pm.
TM And Cleveland tonight at Vic Pk....6pm - 8pm.
Nike, Adams Golf and the assoicated crap brand (aka Brosnan) tomorrow in Bogan City GC, 4-7pm
The Vic Park ones are regulars. The 1st and 2nd Tuesday, and the 2nd Thursday of each month.

Stumbled onto a demo night at Oxley range tonight,Ping,Nike and Callaway were there.
I was'nt real interested in hitting anything but got a bit bored and wandered over to hear the spiel from the reps.
Cally;
I hit the Hyper X driver and 3 wood.The driver was a surprise...not too ugly a head and the shaft was some sort of Fuji Fit-on.This driver just wants to go straight and felt pretty long,impact felt solid not tinny,I could'nt be sure but it felt as long as my Ft-3.I hit the 9 degree and would need more loft and a longer tee but to me it felt better than the FT5's that I've hit this year.
I did'nt like the Hyper X 3 wood.
Ping;
I hit the new lob wedge,not bad,nice shape and seemed to put plenty of spin on the ball,it wont kick the CG12 out of the bag tho.
Spanked an I10 7 iron,nice,typical Ping feel with a consistent ball flight,nothing earth shattering.
Nike;
I hit the SQ Square hybrid,felt dead,some kind of Diamana shaft blah blah.
Sorry,losing interest,beer calling me,bye.
Hi all were r the demo day for 2008?
see last pages of Inside Social Golf. there's heaps of 'em.
Thanks Rusty
Hi the logan river range at loganholme has demo nights on the last thursday of the month. Last time i was down there they had Ping,Taylor Made. Titleist, Cobra and Callaway gear there. May have been others but didnt take much notice. By the way this is my first time posting and is great to find somewhere to talkabout golf. Hope to get out to some of your golf days soon.

Post in the welcome forum and tell us a little about yourself. Welcome and enjoy!
after reading about Helensvale Driving Range kicking along & their new Bridgestone balls, just thought i'd add that Vic Park have replaced about 30-50% of their balls to the Bridgestone practice balls as well.
Pings suck.

"I played golf. I did not get a hole in one, but I did hit a guy. That was way more satisfying." Mitch Hedberg
SHoulda said it was a Titleist or Mizuno tour model nights, heaps would have turned up.
