No, I think that it was a wood 
If anybody can tell if if the right side of the course was as good as the left side that I frequented on EVERY flippin hole, that would be nice.

Man, it was a great day! I normally lurk on this forum more than post since I'm a WRX dude but it was great to put faces to names.
The course was in beautiful nick. You really needed to stay on the short stuff to score well (being 20 feet short of the green in 2 on a long par 5 is all well and good providing it doesn't take you 4 more shots to get down from the snarling rough!) and the wind made it just that bit more 'interesting' ;-)
Mizuno really outdid themselves here. I don't know of any company who has treated their community with such respect and the way they rolled out the red carpet was fantastic. Huge kudos to David M and Sam C at Mizuno and thanks to the rest of the 'blue army' for a great day.

Would like to say how mutch i enjoyed myself at the mizuno golf day, i didnt have to travel far and those that did i am sure would have thought it was well worth the efort. I have played the course on a couple of occasions in the past so knew we were in for a treat, but the quality for this time of year was amazing not only were the greens very fast and true but the fairways were like the turf at wembley. A big thanks to big dave i mean pete,martin and richard my playing partners for the day, and the mizuno team nothing was to mutch trouble, you made me and im sure every other player feel very welcome. Also helo to tony dave g and rick it was nice to meet you all. Well done Mizuno.

I just wanted to have another opportunity to thank everyone at Mizuno and especially Sam, for arranging the forum golf tournament on Monday. Brilliantly organised, great Course and I am sure I speak for everyone that attended in saying we all had great days golf
.
Mizuno pulled out all the stops especially with the gift pack for all the players and free tab in the Club House.
Must add that the tops came in very useful, as the weather did turn a bit chilly during the afternoon.
It was also interesting to see the Tour Bus and even better to be able to try out the new JPX Driver. I’m definitely interested Sam………….
The trophy already has taken pride of place on the sideboard
Cheers again Sergio

There are some Mizuno pics coming as well. I think Sam has emailed some out already.
There's a fair bit of re-sizing going on........so please bear with us. Might be a couple more days before Sam has time to put everything up.
Again - thanks for all the great comments. Slightly worried about next year now.

I think it has been well said by all - it was a glorious day and mizuno were superb and very generous hosts. Both my son and i had a memorable time.
Deemac - the brampton day will be grat to be sure - even if Mizuno can't get people there in person it will still have their spirit and it will be a great chance to meet some of the northern folks who contribute so regularly to the forum. I'm looking forward to it.
My thanks to samfitter & MPX and all the guys at mizuno on Monday - it was brilliant!

We had a good conversation about the ball. Yes - it already exists. No - there still isn't a concrete plan to introduce it in Europe. A patent minefield from what we've been led to believe. However, it's inevitable that it will arrive eventually.
Something for next year's bag?
You're right, we're going to need a tighter entry criteria next year.
