the gift cards and so on were burning a hole in my pocket so to speak...so casting aside rational thought i went to the mall to spend my loot....was shocked...traffic as not bad...must have hit it at the right time....got 5 cds and a reference book on html at borders, with the exception of a recording of respighi everything else was either chant or elizabethan,,,,have just really got into the early music within the last year or so......then on to dick's sporting goods.....was going to buy a new putter and then just see if anything else just jumped up and bit me....i thought maybe new shoes....old ones are fine but leather and thought something a little lighter for summer would be cool...maybe so balls or even a new bag....the last thing on my mind was a new driver......but guess what i ended up with....you guessed it a new driver....the had a really good price on an older model adams....in 11.5 degrees of loft....i've wanted to try a driver in that loft range for a long time.....it's kind of a "senor" loft......helps you get it up a little quicker ( trollie re-reads and realizes that he better make sure everyone knows he's talking about a golf ball.......) also less likely to slice or hook severely.....anyways although i've never really thought about getting an adams just because it's an adams....the loft was what i wanted and it fits my eye....it's only a 303 cubic cm which is a bit smaller then the monster i've been using but still large compared to the older style drivers.......i still got a bit of money to spend so may still end up with a new pair of spikes......
