Description
This golf enthusiast has been addicted to golf since I was 8 years old, that's 40 years to you and me. Always trying to get the best deal on forged golf irons before they are all gone. Classic forged irons are really what get me excited about hitting golf balls the way they were intended to be hit. That goes for classic putters and classic persimmon woods too. Golf is far too expensive and it doesn't have to be. Golf can be participated in for far less money than what you think. Golf equipment, golf balls at the range, golf outings at the local muni, outings at upper echelon golf courses, and maybe attending the infrequent PGA Tour tournament.
I started the Forged Golf Club Appreciation page on Facebook.

I also make videos The Knackered Golfist on YouTube.

Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again Fellow Golfists,I was in a twosome in a best ball tournament and my partner and I shot a combined score of 9 under par 58 finishing 2nd place behind a group that shot 56. The tournament took place at Davis Golf Course in Davis California which is a par 67 golf course. I really tried to summarize what the experience was like because I have never been that successful at doing golf, ever. The ...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again fellow golfists,Got to try out a few clubs that were worked on recently which included an old fairway metal wood getting a new shaft. I also changed shafts on an old pitching wedge. Special shout out in this episode goes out to Mr. Tilk from Orange County California. He messaged me this week and it was nice to hear that someone actually listens to this podcast regularly. If you ...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again fellow Golfists,I really enjoyed watching the final round of The Masters with Mr Producer. It was so awe inspiring to watch Scottie Scheffler win his 2nd Green Jacket at The 2024 Masters Tournament in Augusta Georgia. His performance on that day showed me that he had a 15th club in the bag that gave him the confidence to be able to tackle any and every shot that was presented to him during ...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again fellow golfists, I watched a bit of golf last weekend and it was a great victory for Scottie Scheffler. He got a new Taylor Made mallet putter and he was really rolling the rock really well at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and won the tournament at 15 under par. I shared a bit of time with Mr Esch and viewed his huge golf collection that is up for sale on Facebook Market Place. ...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again Fellow Golfists, First of all, thank you for downloading and listening to any of my golf related podcast episodes. I hope that listening to any of these golf episodes helps you thrive throughout your day in one way or another. I try to be a bit irreverent and I try to tell it like I see it. I got to visit a putting green on a Sunday afternoon in-between the final 2 NFL football g...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again fellow Golfists, I am now a believer in the Karsten Solheim / Ping way of putting. For years I have never been able to use a Ping style putter the way it was designed and intended. After 40 years of perseverance I can now say that I can putt much more consistently with a Ping putter. I had an outing with a Ping B63 putter at Mather Golf Course and made a video that is up on my Yo...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again Fellow Golfists,Well I was practicing with a Ping Pal 4 BeCu putter at Thunder Valley Golf Resort and it went well. I don't know if I cracked a putter code or anything but it sure seems that I was putting a bit more consistently with my Ping Pal 4 putter. I also made a video of my session on the youtube channel. Thanks for listening to The Knackered Golfist!https://youtu.be/_4HAsDdYHV...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again Golfists, I got to go out to the range on a Friday afternoon and shake down a new to me set of irons that I traded a bunch of putters for last week. I got a new to me set of FORGED Founders Club Tour CB THE JUDGE irons that was 3 thru 9 iron and I picked up a Mizuno MP 9 Pitching Wedge that was in the single club rack at my local Play It Again Sports. Separate from the MP9 PW, these cl...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again Fellow Golfists!!I purchased a new to me 2 iron from a bargain rack at Play It Again Sports and tonight was my first outing with it. It is a Ben Hogan Apex Redline 2 iron with the Hogan Apex Extra 4 shaft. I hit a few good ones but all in all I think that this particular shaft was worth the price. If I ever get my hands on a Wilson Staff Gooseneck FG53 2 iron I just might put this sha...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again Fellow Golfists, Well it was rare for me to actually have fun at Sacramento National on a night that had a gorgeous sunset, gorgeous moon, and a gentle breeze that kept things relatively cool on a Friday night in middle to late October 2023. On this night I shared the time between hitting mostly fully dimpled Srixon Marathon Range balls with my Wilson Staff Goosenecks, new to me Ping Tisi dr...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again Fellow Golfists, I got to catch the final round of the 2023 Fortinet Championship from Silverado Resort in Napa California on the Peacock channel and was so happy to see Sahith Theegala win his first ever tournament on the PGA Tour!!The powers at be decided to reroute the golf course for this tournament to enhance the drama coming down the stretch to have much more of a climactic ending to this gr...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again Fellow Golfists, This host made an investment in a golf training aide product that already shaved 5 strokes off my game in my most recent golf outing. I shot 75 on a golf course where I normally shoot 80 or 81. Under difficult conditions at my local municipal golf course I had a very good day of golf. I owe my success this past weekend to the device that is called the Leadbetter ...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again Fellow Golfists, I wanted to share that I listened to a great historical podcast last night and thought that Conor T. Lewis and his TalkinGolf Podcast did a great job discussing the history of the Ben Hogan Golf Company with John Barba of MyGolfSpy.com. This episode was so great at describing and documenting all of the great history that happened when Mr Hogan was involved in his company.&nb...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again Fellow Golfists, I was able to play my last round of golf of the summer before Mr Producer goes back to school. I was fortunate enough to be able to finally play Hiddenbrooke Golf Club in Vallejo California. This was the site of the 2000 through 2002 Samsung World Championship on the LPGA Tour. This golf course was "such good fun" to play with so many Justin Rose-isms of having m...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again Fellow Golfists, I wanted to share an episode where I talked about what my most recently purchased golf iron set means to me and how they feel in my hands. The shafts that are in these irons are still very good. I had a good late morning outing at the Indian Creek Country Club Driving Range in Loomis California before temperatures reached 100 degrees. The driving range ball quali...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again Fellow Golfists, I was able to take a trip to the Monterey Peninsula area and cool off from being socked into triple digit temperatures in Northern California for a few days in early August 2023. I was very excited to play golf at the Laguna Seca Golf Ranch in Monterey California. I had a ball meeting the staff and playing a Robert Trent Jones Senior and Junior collaboration golf cours...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again Fellow Golfists, I wanted to share a great weekend of golf that was the week of The Open Championship from Royal Liverpool at Hoylake and visiting the 3rd round of the Reno Tahoe Open which is also known as the Barracuda Championship from Old Greenwood Golf Course in Truckee California. I had a great time visiting Old Greenwood last Saturday. I followed Cameron Champ for the front 9 an...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again Fellow Golfists,Just wanted to see what my Uncle Mike thought about this weekend with The Open Championship from Royal Liverpool. It was great to chat with him about golf and what it means to him. I enjoy his viewpoints and perspective regarding golf and it was great to be able to play golf with him when I got the chance at his home club at Willamette Valley Country Club in Canby Oregon bac...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again fellow Golfists, I got to play golf today after work and had a good day out at Davis Golf Course in Davis California. If "No Laying Up" can have a "Tourist Sauce" golf video series watching and recording all of the thoughts, processes, and idiosyncrasies of golf rounds that those blokes take part in, I think it is ok for me to give a post round debrief and or press conference, if you will, t...
Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!Hello again Fellow Golfists,The 123rd US Open happened last weekend and it was troubling that many golf fans in Southern California were denied the ability to purchase regular grounds tickets to be able to attend the third major golf championship of 2023. Numerous golf fans make major championships far more memorable and far more relevant. If I lived in Southern California I would have wanted to attend...
