March 2nd Friday Five – Birthday Edition

For my birthday this coming weekend I will be treating myself to some new golf clubs. I have been using the same old clubs for about 13 years and it is time to upgrade finally. It helps that they are $100 off this weekend as well. On that note here are some great posts from around the web over the past week:

    Thank you for the mention!

    Thanks guys. And the clubs should improve my game a bit, but I’m not expecting anything substantial. But considering the age of my old clubs and how technology has improved over the past 10-15 years I should notice some improvement.

    I would just like to get my handicap down to around 7 again and I’d be happy.
