  1. Hit a bucket at patriot golf course in Bedford , Ma today . Sun , zero breeze, sweat out of all orfices . Range goes to 270 , then net . Hit roof of building behind net several times . It’s the little things in life . Wish I got a T time today .
  2. PF I’ll be visiting my favorite hotel this Thursday-Saturday. Spruce gotta grab some carne tacos on Friday from the truck I’m looking forward to the cooler weather
  3. I believe that is certainly a possibility... i know it seems a bit "out there" given we are now a bit more relaxed and enjoying the summer but i would not discount it when Flu symptoms spook folks . Should MLB cancel and the NFL Cancel....and Schools be mostly remote learning which i don't believe will be far fetched before Thanksgiving..it would seem not so far fetched....to make a stay at home order part 2 (last time just for a couple months- till the vaccine is ready) not a shock. Melbourne, Australia just did.
  4. This sentence highlights what i meant, simply the path of least resistance is people making their decisions base more so on safest possible than "is this necessary". That can certainly be debated...my point was just that "is this necessary" sort of takes a back seat once once someone makes the first decision to close , bc then there is pressure for other to follow due to perception of not. To close resorts is one thing ..to close the outdoor hiking up a mountain on your own and skiing down is asinine and exhibit A.
  5. Ran into my buddy at grocery store yesterday . He works at Ken Jones Ski mart in Manchester . Believe he said they begin getting ski’s resdy today. He was curious if the shop was going to cut the season ski passes they give employees . He was talking about a giant supply disruption from manufacturers regarding new skis for this upcoming season. I was mentioning to him about NH needing a big natural snow year bc I just don’t see how they will go forward w regular snow making plans . They may say otherwise now , but the reality of the situation is ...politically correct panic lurks right below the surface . What I mean is as soon as Flu season gets underway , and people in public actually produce symptoms consistent w Covid (they aren’t necessarily distinguishable) that every single flu sniffle and cough will be met w a different sort of level of concern (that will surprise people) and this on top of the current backdrop will result in doing everything to be safe , especially with the hope that a vaccine is around the corner (in spring ) , That will probably mean whoever shuts down the most will appear to be doing the best job to be “safe”. The media will play its usual role to not miss a opportunity to “inform/ frighten” people and enhance this response. The stage is more than set. .02 cents I certainly could be wrong , In particular if the country is seeing falling Covid cases from a decently low point that would be very helpful as flu season kicks in, that would be my big hope for people’s health and businesses.
  6. He’s obviously competitive and pretty dang good. He also ( I would guess) may have a mental hurdle or glitch of confidence when he picks up the driver ? and it had cost him enough in his overall score to can it .
  7. Just shot a 29 on back 9 at Augusta to finish with a 63. Tiger woods golf boom!
  8. Played North Course in June. So no lol
  9. Grey area of performance Enhancers
  10. Crushed a 335 drive last nite (as Rory Mccllroy) on X box . Felt great
  11. And the lucky finish . Didn’t know how to fit them all on one post. You can see the ball Against the blue sky above the “C” a little higher than my head .Ok I’m done !
  12. Not to take up the thread but it’s not far from my drive -swing on Golf course . I have to be in the zone otherwise there isn’t much room for error as I nearly leave my feet as I rotate thru ball and yes this somehow went straight
  13. I can carry 300 on my best ...this is Almost exclusive to driving range where I really get a good hip rotation and accelerate my hips thru ball. My friend took a cool slow mo vid of my swing on one of those drives and I was somewhat lucky it went straight. I also love to do the sort of of one step Happy Gilmore / David Ortiz like Home run swing at the range , it’s just fun lol
  14. Old Scotland links in Bridgwater I went our w my Gf and her son and the first hole was frightening even with 2 carts . So I suggested we switch to best ball and that did the job.
  15. Played Stow Country club (Mass) 9 holes. My favorite golf weather . Mid 60’s and dry with a breeze Course was decent
  16. His swing didn’t have That disaster mid swing stop/hitch , but his drive off the T with a shorter more compact swing was a utter disaster on that hole The 9 in New market were a blast ..we played best ball and just had fun. A few of my drives cleared 300. In a best ball I’m useful off the T , otherwise hit and miss ..depending on competition level. There was a tournament I played in couple years ago in that area (I got the longest drive and not much else lol) , the driving range went to 250 and then there was a big net behind that ..and behind that was a small parking lot followed by a police station w what sounded like a tin roof (when hit ) . That was a blast . Definitely going out again soon to play another Round. Golf may just turn out to be the most popular sport this summer
  17. Some cold 925’s must be moving in quickly snowing thru Lebanon and now back thru Grantham it’s a white out and 31 @ 1250’
  18. Vermont tech college was last stop love that spot my friends dad used to be president 1400’ snow was drier than I anticipated
  19. I saw them as a less desirable area . Especially at 1400’ and sorta in between best precipitation lm near Grantham at 1250’ and it’s 37 and light snow (surprise to see flakes was about to head up to 1750’)
