Next clutch of penguin eggs have hatched. Hurried to Ping HQ corporate lobby to pick up the new clubs. How fun!

The look is kinda emo Klingon. I liked the industrial minimal look of the Eye 2s. G30s are not very Bauhaus and will take some getting used to. Still, it's the blue pill the Doc prescribed so if they play as promised, who cares? Brain runs ahead chasing fantasies like a dog on a bird hunt.

Dashed to the range to try them out. Got a bag of balls, undid the rubber bands holding them together, and picked up the lob wedge to try a few. Felt heavy as a lead hammer. My old Eye2 irons are D0 (I think) and I like how they feel. Tried another club. Heavy. Heavy. Tried the longest iron. Heavy and super long. Not exactly the easy to hit feeling I was expecting.

A bit baffled. This is the result of getting properly fitted for clubs? Or, maybe this is how clubs should be, and the Eye2's are defectively light and short. Shit. Back to the present.

Easy to react and complain. Or, dash to Dr. Trackman for answers. Better to do some research. Off to the net.
