From another thread: As to putter gifts, etc.

Interesting question, determination. I think it goes to intent. If it is a 'gift' to just influence the bet
and he accepts it, that is not good and would violate the rules. The whole point is that the can't
resist a new play toy ( women excepted ). My god, the Grape Nuts are almost enough to void the bet. 😳

    What?? I agree about accepting a new putter, no different from demo/ops check. Since no nationwide shortage of putters, involuntary putter additions is a no no. Now that the GN nations=wide shortage is no longer, no more GN, even if advanced barter for some club repair we have planned.

    I'm confident he is looking at ways to trip both of us up. Good fun all around. Gayazz blue was close to a no no.

      OK, if you are just bartering for club repair/exchange, we're good. Yep, he is crafty, but the lawyer in me will prevail.
      Gotta watch him close.

        Eguller Yes, barter. Steve and I have now done this 3Xs. Nothing sinister here, I'm ready to send you the pastel blue Vice dozen. Aug is too long though, we may need to shift while still entertain the Buzzards.

            Blech.....Barf.....I don't do Spuzz blue balls. We'll be luck to hit Spring on this bet. I feel a quake in the Force. 🤔

              How is that OMG Holy Grail blue beauty doing ? Behaving ? Still in the bag ? Inquiring minds.... 😇

                  I don't usually have 3 birdies in a week. I had 3 in one round today, shot 78 and that putter is getting cemented into the bag. This keeps up and I'm taking it to VA in April.......if the bet allows. 😉

                      Honeymoon phase persists. Enjoy the ride. The important rule is 3 putters, no exchanges.
                      Sounds like this one may make the ride North with a seat belt on. 🏌

                        A little birdie informed me that there is 'cheating' happening in this bet. Not good.
