  1. It was the worst summer of my lifetime. Simply because of the misery mornings filled with clouds, fog, and drizzle followed by like two hours of lunchtime sun before the afternoon/evening rains. For two months it was practically monsoon season. Every day I left work, it poured. Not severe storms either just training type tropical rains. You litterly couldn’t do anything outside after work all week. The weekends were washouts too. You’d have to get things done around lunctime in that small window of some sunny dews. Ya know, like chopping down all the tropical weeds, vegetation, and spraying and chizzling away at mold growing around the house. I had a 8ft weed next to my mailbox where I had to use a chainsaw to cut down. It was a disgustingly depressing summer. Never again.
  2. Yea. That’s why you also usually see no-names put up low scores on day 1 in big events, then fade. Tough to have your A game 4 days in a row but if you can trend upward by being patient and feeling the course early instead of attacking aggressively...because you can’t win tournies early but you can lose them. I’m perplexed how caught off guard some big names where with the course. Maybe they didn’t respect how much tougher it would play compared to last week so they weren’t as precise. The wind was a factor, sure, but big names shooting 80?! Dunno...interesting round tomorrow though to see who can bounce back.
  3. Not sure if anyone is watching but Muirfield beat up the best players today. Crazy how they can make the course that much more difficult in one week. Cut line will probably be + 2 or +3. Very US Open-ish.
  4. Keep us posted. I’m torn between a mini-split and central. I have quotes on both with central being double the price.
  5. Crazy. Looks more like a heavy sleet bomb.
  6. Yea. I like Morikawa’s slow takeaway. No coincidence he’s one of the best iron players.
  7. MA: The Ranch in Southwick and Crumpin Fox in Bernadston. I’ve heard Pine Hills is awesome but I haven’t played it yet.
  8. 3 CT courses off the top of my head...Wintonbury Hills in Bloomfield. Fox Hopyard in East Haddam. Oxford Greens in Oxford.
  9. Actually...Try not to swing hard with irons. I think most of my flush shots have a slower tempo where I’m not trying to max it out but more focused on pure contact.
  10. Me too. I always had a tendency to roll my elbow during my backswing so the video you mention has helped me to be mindful to keep it pointing down as much as possible.
  11. Wizzy’s girlfriend thought she’s finally ‘auditioning’ but instead Wizzy has his pants off next to the tripod for a completely different reason...one she is unfortunately all too familiar with.
  12. I hope concierge removed the electrical items from Wizzy’s room.
  13. I’m been changing my thought process lately...going away from some things I learned last season and over the winter... and I find this guy to be simple but technical. Here is a good video on transition, which is where I struggle and probably many of us do. Follow him on youtube.
  14. 83/75. Sticky but at least it’s sunny.
  15. We did not play Bethpage Black. We’ll do it at some point later this summer. My friends played it twice, says it’s worth every penny to experience it. That’s awesome you get to play with your kid. A perfect sport/game to do so. Who’s better? I hope I can share it with one of mine when they get older.
  16. I know nailing forecasts for everyone is not easy and it’s generally better to keep the public more aware and safer, especially how dumb people are, but they should have adjusted their forecasts last night or at least this morning when it was pretty clear this was NBD for anyone NE of NYC.
  17. Yea. It was something track worthy at least. The track over NJ and W of NYC will pan out. I thought this was a weak/bad forecast by the NHC and NWS offices. The flood and TS warnings NE of NYC was uncalled for but not many will mind or notice.
  18. Taking on the left side of the cone so far and WV has it and the OH valley low looking phasey. My guess is over CNJ to NNJ (west of NYC) and into Upsate west of the Hudson. Score one for the GFS.
  19. Match radar with any of the big models and it didn’t have the heaviest stuff that far into Lancaster county PA. It would probably puke itself over EPA, NJ, and maybe NYC but anywhere NE of there will get mostly scattered convection. #floodfail
  20. Not talking about the ‘center’ but the extent of western and thus the heaviest precip...is further west.
  21. It looks west of guidance atm. Haven’t seen anything show the bands make it that far west of philly.
