A Gem In The Swamp

Sat, 23 Dec 2000 20:28:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - This almost-upscale course seems to have all it's bases covered. (Note: Carts have GPS screens, which gives yardage and times your pace.)

COURSE CONDITION: Nice overall, considering the swampy area. The fairways seemed lush with very few...

24-Hour Allergy Fighter

Thu, 2 Nov 2000 23:43:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - Our doctor recommended this model and we found it at a great price at Costco. He said it would not only clean our air, but it would also reduce our Northern California humidity indoors. He was right!

I used to wake up with a runny nose most...

The Best Ball You've Never Heard Of

Mon, 30 Oct 2000 22:11:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - I actually got to try these because I found a couple on a course I was playing. I had heard of Srixon, but just a little.

I teed one of these up during my round and was pleasantly surprised. The name was true for a change. They had a soft...

The Velcro Is Great!

Mon, 30 Oct 2000 00:10:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - We have a 20-month-old daughter and we swear by Huggies Ultratrims. We have never had a problem with leaks and they fit great.

The thing we like the most about these are the velcro closures. We tried other diapers, like Pampers, Luvs, and...

Extra Control? Maybe Not

Wed, 25 Oct 2000 00:41:55 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - This is another Top Flite ball that has a name that is misleading. The big highlighted feature of the Magna Extra Control is that it is slightly oversized. They claim that this helps the ball resist the effects of side spin. Well, I certainly didn't...

Short, But Very Sweet

Sat, 14 Oct 2000 20:28:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - (UPDATE 2006: Alas, this course no longer exists. The land has more value for housing development and was sold. The following is now a part of history.) COURSE CONDITION: It's bordering on excellent, if it weren't for the drainage problem. Things...

Great For Beginners

Wed, 11 Oct 2000 02:03:41 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - I am very satisfied with my MVC-FD73. It seems easier to use than a film camera. The disk storage, view screen, and easy operation and adjustability are what make this a no-brainer for the beginner digital photographer or online auctioneer.

Like A Skateboard Wheel

Wed, 23 Aug 2000 02:31:11 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - The only way to paint the perfect picture of the way this ball feels is like hitting a urethane skateboard wheel. It's very soft and very heavy. I remember a TV commercial showing a guy hitting a marshmellow tied to a rock. I forgot which ball it was...

The Chintziest Of All

Sun, 20 Aug 2000 11:03:44 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - I recently ended my subscription to Golf Illustrated after a two-year trial. The price wasn’t bad and neither was some of the content. I particularly enjoyed some of the instructional pieces.

The problem was the magazine’s overall cheap feel...

The Name Is Misleading

Tue, 15 Aug 2000 17:51:31 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - When a golf ball has the word "spin" in its name, one pictures a finesse-type ball that has a soft feel and spins more from 150 yards in. Well in my opinion, such is not the case with the Exceptional Spin ball.

I read in the...

Boston Acoustics RX 67 Car Speaker: Handle With Care

Sun, 6 Aug 2000 20:30:13 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - I used to sell Car Audio equipment a few years ago and I learned that most Boston Acoustics speakers had a reputation for needing a perfectly sealed enclosure to sound good. When I needed door speakers for my Saturn, I guess I forgot about this...

Solid In Many Ways

Sun, 6 Aug 2000 20:21:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - It is my belief that ball fitting is as crucial to a golfer as club fitting. Not every ball will fit every golfer, but every ball should be right for someone. The Maxfli Revolution is a ball that should be right for certain golfers.

The...

All Hail, The Golf Channel!

Tue, 1 Aug 2000 00:39:16 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - The answer to the prayers of millions of golf junkies has come in the form of the Golf Channel. It was the idea of Arnold Palmer back in the early 90’s and came to fruition in 1995. Keep in mind that this was before a guy named something like Lion...

This Basic Model Is Packed With Features

Wed, 14 Jun 2000 00:01:16 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - For Sony's basic Handycam, this one sure has a ton of features and a very nice resulting picture. Though someone may rarely use all the features, it is nice to have the value for the buck.

The "NightShot" feature is very useful. We...

Thrill Rides & Animals Are Not A Good Mix Here

Wed, 7 Jun 2000 01:42:08 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - Don't get the wrong idea from my title. I love a good ride-filled amusement park, but cramming in rides with wild animals is not a good mix. Stir in the wild teenagers this place attracts and I can't recommend this place for families.

THE EVIL EMPIRE (edited)

Sat, 3 Jun 2000 03:17:57 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - NOTE: This is a not a review of the beer. It is a commentary on Anheuser-Busch's business practices. Unless you follow news in the brewing industry, you probably don't know that Anheuser-Busch has been branded the "Evil Empire" by some...

Sony KV-20V80: Trinitron Tube Is Great In Any Size

Sat, 3 Jun 2000 01:35:02 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - Rather than take you through all the cool features this TV has, I'll get right to the point. You can't beat Sony Trinitron tubes for picture quality! When I say this, I mean ALL Trinitron TUBES including computer monitors. I have a 27" in the...

What Happened?

Tue, 23 May 2000 22:48:06 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - I bought this single because it's the only song on the latest "Singles" album that I don't have. WOW! What happened here? This song is very disappointing. I've been a hardcore Depeche fan since 1983. I've bought just about every album on its...

Muscle Core With Just Average Muscle

Tue, 23 May 2000 21:52:29 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - For a mid-priced ball with big claims, this one was pretty average. The distance was about the same as some of the rock-hard $10-per-dozen balls I've tried and the feel wasn't much better. It also seems as though they aren't as accurate as others in...

Titleist Wins The Low-end Ball War

Sun, 21 May 2000 17:57:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Brew42 - If you want the distance and feel of a Titleist for under $20, hunt these babies down. Though Titleist has put out the new version of this ball called the DT Distance, the DT 2-piece is worth searching for and will not let you down. They feel pretty...
