Finding ways to keep myself out of the Deep Rough and in the Fairway

Pre-Order a Callaway FT-i, FT-5 or an iPhone?
The people at Games People Play are taking pre-orders for the Callaway FT-i and FT-5 drivers. Priced at $499 and $429 respectively. I think I’ll wait for a demo day at my local driving range before shelling out that much cash for a candy striped driver! Plus, I think I’ll need that money for the iPhone right? Talk about cool! I wonder if anyone will come up with some neat little golf widgets for it? Like a scorecard or GPS yardage application?
- Callaway FT-5 – $429 – Arriving after February 15th 2007
- FT-i – $499 – Ships after February 15th, 2007
- Apple iPhone – $499 for 4GB – Ships in June

I’d put the iPhone over the driver!
Damn, driver or phone? I would probably take the phone so I could listen to music while looking for my ball
I use oobgolf for scores etc. You can browse to mobile.oobgolf.com from almost any cell phone or pda to enter your scores. I am sure it would work on the iphone…
That looks pretty neat (oobgolf), I’ll have to try it out sometime! Thanks Kevin!
The mobile site has been slowly improving over the last month. You still need to rate courses (and tee data needs entered) from the site. But after that you can do everything on the phone. Using hole-by-hole scoring is pretty sweet. It will bring up your previous stats and other oobgolfers stats if the hole has been played.
Kevin, I checked it out last night, looked pretty cool. Love the site’s design. Though, I wasn’t able to use the mobile site to post any scores, kept saying that I hadn’t rated any courses yet? Though, I seem to have a few rated already?
Anyway, looks like apple won’t allow custom applications on the iphone anyway…so a nice little mobile web app like this would be perfect.
“These are devices that need to work, and you can’t do that if you load any software on them,” he said. “That doesn’t mean there’s not going to be software to buy that you can load on them coming from us. It doesn’t mean we have to write it all, but it means it has to be more of a controlled environment.”
Phone Shows Apple’s Impact on Consumer Products
The courses need to be rated AND have tee data entered to use the mobile site.
Ya, I just saw that WSJ article with Jobs about not allowing third party apps. Thats dissappointing. I am a Motorola Q user and couldn’t imagine not having the ability to go download all the apps available for Windows Mobile OS. That could definately be a iPhone killer, in my opinion.
What waiting for is :
A. to see the phone that really exists. I mean, we have no idea what it’s really going to be like. I love Apple, and I’m as excited as everyone. but come on. right now it doesn’t exist. how can anyone compete against a promess
B. square 3wood. in a round, a think a 3wood is much more useful then a driver. tight par 4s, Par 5s. and giant par 3s too.
C. an Iphone callaway value pack !
I can’t help thinking how killer of a gps/rangefinder the iPhone would be…
