Whatever...XY chromosome theory?? I'll just refrain before I get too agitated here. Obviously you make your own generalizations about women which is different than my own view (and experience).

I've actually been considering one of his for the longest time. Still trying to determine the right combination before I pull the trigger.

Let's see...playing tennis, distance running, bags (not purses), cats, reading, Pittsburgh Steelers football, wine, travel, cooking, watches, history...

Good on you Stephanie.

Though I’m not sure it’s a hobby my wife certainly has a 'collecting habit' when it come to bags, shoes and dresses – many of them are beautiful.

She also has many interests including various forms of exercise, reading and is a great cook.

She loves jewellery, especially antique/older rings and given unlimited money I’m sure she would be have an even bigger collection.

I have some CS fenders and a Les Paul gold top. And a few amps. Not as many as you. My latest acquisition was the Vox AC15 and AC 30 60th HW amps (made in England). That could have been watch money! But I had to have them.

Besides watches I collect bracelets with natural stones. Esp I like mens personalized bracelet with tiger eye and black lava beads. They are so comfortable to wear on the wrist and look stylish. Plus they don't cost much.

If working out counts, my wife loves running and CrossFit.

Otherwise she’s totally into puzzling.

My wife's hobbies are knitting, computers and an noisy outdoor game called trap.

She also collects somebodys miniature victorian era buildings she puts all over the house at Christmas and perverse garden gnomes which are in the planters out front.

Was very active on the forum for years but haven't been around much since late 2016.



Don't own a Olson putter. The putter in the first picture (which I assume you're referring to) is a Tyson Lamb that I had custom made in 2016.

Ahhh looked a lot like an Olson with the timascus insert. Nice Lamb! I was on TCC a bunch back in the old days.

If anyone is interested in blown glass there is a cool series on Netflix called Blown Away. Some amazing stuff being blown in a reality competition series.
