Dean, Great report. Thanks! I'll be trying out the NitroFlex Lite pretty soon.
I missed golf last Sunday because of rain. Since we can only play golf 364 days a year, my one miss is out of the way ;-) Cub ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dean" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, April 03, 2003 10:36 AM Subject: Re: ShopTalk: Grafalloy NitoFlex Lite > Felt really good!
