Rickochet I think Dyno was the first to apply the term "poon" to golf equipment.

Yes, he absolutely was! He maintained that separating the head and shaft from any club with "poon" would permanently destroy the poon, even if you put them back together.

      darpar GREAT THREAD TOPIC!!!!

      It is, even if it's the (at least) 3rd time around. Wasn't there a discussion back in July, or last summer at least?
      Always funny though.

      I always missed Persimmon after he left.....for unknown reasons/causes.

          darpar I played a round of golf one time with puttnfool. He gamed one of LogicalOne's original putters. In person he wasn't so bad. Pretty solid player. Followed the rules strictly and never took a mulligan. Was very, very focused on his round of golf. I could have been Prince Harry and he probably wouldn't have noticed, lol.

              I missed it if there was. But I was absent from here for quite awhile.

                rsvman2 For some reason I remember Puttnfool posting a lot about giving people negative feedback on eBay transactions. 😆

                    I didn't interact much on FGI as I primarily joined as a component greenhorn trying to absorb knowledge on selecting and assembling components. I did enjoy tangling with ASKE and someone whose username I can't remember in religious discussions on the P&R page. I was also very much in with the forged side in those days.

                      The biggest thing I miss is the Paws and Balls tournament. It seemed like it always got a great FGI turnout and it was 3-5 days of great golf and golf courses. I met many of you there, including Phileo who I actually still talk to everyday and play with at least twice a month.

                        The other one had to be Phileo... or whatever his name was before that. He used to post here as 4GSwag but hasn't been around for a bit.

                          I remember years back my family was headed to Scottsdale for a week to visit my inlaws. I think Ramers had an office in Old Town so I messaged him to see if he wanted to grab a beer. He says we can do better than that and lines up a round of golf...maybe with some of the old AZ mafia? My wife said "fine" initially but then realizes I'll be golfing with "random guys from some golf forum" (her words) and shuts me down. Wife: "you can golf once with my dad and that's it". Yes Typhoons' wife and mine are somehow not too distantly related at least in personality ☹
