Prices on golf equipment, I have a question: How Low Can You Go???

I know that I posted this entry on my other blog, but I liked it so damn much that I had to post it here, and since the ecomony is bottoming out and it's such a big issue, take solace in the face that it seems that prices on everything seem to be goin down down down. I recently found some golf equipment worthy of my saliva that I purchased on the spot! a full set of golf clubs... Callaway X-20 eye-rons to be exact! 3 thru pitching wedge, this set has custom weighting as well as unique shaft stiffness that's customized for a golfer who's my size, considering my swing style and clubhead speed... and boy o boy, they are amazingly accurate: Seriously, I don't think I could throw a dart at a photo of George Bush as straight as I can hit a golf ball with these irons... it's amazing. I get a full-on Kool-Aid Man smile on my face every time I hear that lovely "THWACK!" as the iron grabs a touch of grass right beneath that ball and blasts it down the fairway like one of those robot club tester things that you used to see on early-morning infomercials... but when that ball takes off into the sunset, eclipsing the flag as it sails almost magnetically towards the green, it makes a grown man want to cry, especially with all that backspin... enough to make even the most equilibrious (yes, I made this word up) figure skater have her lunch return on her from pure dizziness.

here's the upside (and the point of this silly blog-o-rama): there is an upside to this downer economy... things are getting cheaper, & it isn't just the necessities... it's the fun stuff too...

like golf junk for golfin' junkies.
