Big spending

It's official, I am soon to be the proud owner of a new mac laptop. And an ipod. And it only cost me $1950.

I'll let you know when it comes in.

Up next on the purchase list is a new set of golf clubs. I went and demoed some today, but didn't find the right set at the right price yet. I did however find the right set at the wrong price. Then I tried a bunch of clubs, big name ones like Callaway, Nike, and Cleveland on the cool swing analyzer, and didn't like any of them. Here is what I learned:

I need a regular shaft for my club speed, which is slower than I would like to reveal.
I like to block my irons right.
I need to learn to close the club face and hit the ball away from the heel.
I need to clear my lower half faster to get the face square at impact.

That's a lot to learn in one day. The salesman assured me that when it all clicks, I will have more power and a better overall swing, but it will take time. I'd rather just buy new golf clubs and let them fix the problem.
