    Doubt Eddie does play, at least thats my impression from his comments made in the Shepherds Bush 09 boot... (when switching between tv channels...).

    Golf is enjoyable even when you are playing bad, go down to Kennedy Bay & you will find out why. The greatest pursuit known to man, very frustrating but to be out with nature isa great feeling. My boy (Pilate) caddied for me on the weekend.

    Well said my friend. My two favorite things, golf and Pearl Jam.

    i've been getting into golf lately, watching it is mad boring, but playing is so relaxing...i could be stressed out, then i'd go to the driving range, then i'd come back in a terrific mood...it's only bad if you let the frustration get to your head, then you end up doing worse, but if you just let the frustration subside, you'll get back on track and really enjoy the game...

    i think it's awesome PJ music is being used to endorse the sport

    Try putting your iPod in your back pocket and snake the earbuds up the back and hit golf balls at the driving range to your favorite bootleg. Relaxing as hell.

    I play a lot of rounds by myself outside of my regular Saturday group, and Ill always do this and pump in the Jazz, maybe My Morning Jacket acoustic or Derek Trucks Band, but mostly Pearl Jam.

    Do you play in this Santos? This looks awesome. No Boston division unfortunately. I love the logo of the Seattle division with undead George Washington.

    agree. even after playing full 18 Im coming back home with more energy than before leaving for the course.... really cool.
    And even watching can get exciting but requires a lot of attention = time consuming but if you really dont have anything to do than spend 3-4 hours infornt of the tv it would really put you into the game as well.

    i can picture Ed and the guys going out to play for shits and giggles...watching them try their best to hit a good drive and then end up kickin up nothing but the grass...that being said, i'd love to play a round a the guys though.

    I always wondered how many golfers there are out there in the PJ masses. I've been playing the game since I was 9 (Im 27 now). Im good, just not good enough.

    Here's a question for the Seattle folk out there. I'm visiting your great city in two weeks. Is there golf in January in the Pacific Northwest? If so, any course recommendations? Naturally there's nothing in New England this time of year.

    Im trying to also do a Pearl Jam reality tour as it is my first time in Seattle. What places are must see for all PJ fans, other than Easy Street?

    Thought there's an interview out there where Ed bemoans the fact that Kelly Slater plays golf and he loved everything about Kelly "except the golf - I'm gonna have to do something about that"...or something like that.... :lol:

    Golf year round.
    West Seattle Golf Course- great muni...any of the Seattle Muni courses (jefferson, jackson, west seattle, interbay) are playable and cheap, $35ish.
    Druids Glen (30 min SE of Seattle)- long, dry-ish, 3.5 hr round in winter
    Gold Mt. Olympic Course (bremerton)- best muni in state, IMHO. http://www.goldmt.com/sites/courses/lay ... page=12203
    Chambers Bay- site of 2015 US Open. http://www.chambersbaygolf.com/layout10 ... &page=4645

    there are TONS of places to play. layers and rain gear a must.

    I'm 28 and have been playing since I was 10 or so.

    I don't play as much as I'd like, despite being surrounded by some amazing courses.

    Gotta get back out there!! :D
  • adam42381adam42381 Posts: 2,505
    I've been playing since I was 8 (par 3 courses at that age) and I'm 28 now. At one time I was around a 6 handicap but now I'm closer to a 12. I don't get to play all that often anymore. I have a new Titleist 909 D2 driver headed my way so I'll definitely be hitting the range soon if it ever warms up around here.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.
