  1. So true. I felt them start to creep up around the 16th but I was able to fight it off. Hopefully I can keep my mind around (body turn, shift weight to front, and let it fly). As the season goes it seems like I start getting too technical and too eager to tweak this and that. I kept it simple today...need to repeat that thought process from now on.
  2. Get it in man, enjoy. I’m playing next week as well. I think they could have spread out the tee times to every 20min instead of 10min but we rarely had to wait. Everyone seemed to play ready golf. Although the bumpy greens had a lot to do with it. I’m sure players got it within 5ft and just called it. Keeping the flags in also helps the pace of play.
  3. Snuck in 18 for my bday at Whitney Farms in Monroe. Put up an 82. Best ball striking round of my life. Had the greens been legit and not recently aerated with sand...would have cracked 70s. All those youtube videos over the winter paid off. All downhill from here ha.
  4. I do body rotation drills and fake swings indoors in plain sight. The wife is not amused. I’m trying to get out late next week for my 40th but the weather looks pretty beat.
  5. A peak into everyone’s household and their lives...kinda cool. Friday night of sloppiness would be interesting.
  6. I’m having a hard time with my acidic and rocky soil. Seems like my lime applications do nothing and even though it looks fine during the growing season with my monthly trugreen applications, it’s almost like a fake look...covering up pimples with makeup.

  8. My shitty acidic soil suppresses early growth. Nowhere near first mow besides a patch here or there. I limed the crap out of it last week though. Wanted to aerate but local rental shop is closed. Going to be another meh maintenance season with other projects going on...until I can completely focus on it in the years to come.
  9. I just checked, some course are open around here but now we face crappy weather upcoming. Just can’t win.
  10. Heavy lime applied on my acidic soil. It’s a work in progress. Wanted to aerate but obviously can’t rent it now. Spring on hold anyway...looks cool and damp UFN.
  11. There’s always backyard golf. Get a net for full swings and pitch into buckets, etc.
  12. Golfnow is good like that but damn these shutdowns are no joke. Can’t even hit a ball with a stick by myself now.
  13. That sucks. Maybe they can change to an open course?
  14. Yes it does check all the boxes which is why I’m thinking every golf fan will be out playing...especially if it warms and dries while still in ‘lockdown’. The best escape just got even better.
  15. I’ve gotta get out and play myself. I usually don’t play this early but these are unusual times. Have the courses been packed?
  16. True. Tough course as usual. Good final round.
  17. The Honda Classic is always challenging so I’m surprised at the underwhelming field. Still a good tourney but no Rory, DJ, Day, etc. Starting to get the itch though.
  18. Can’t stand douches. All the stories about him are negative and the golfing world is typically positive, they aren’t TMZ, so you have to be a pretty bad guy as a result. I wish he hadn’t won a major, the Masters at that. Dude doesn’t deserve it.
  19. WGC Mexico is a good tournament, underrated because of how early it is played. Rory back to his old putter and it made a difference. Funny how fickle putting can be.
  20. Hopefully you get well enough to get out there. Nothing like a round of 18.
  21. It’s so hard to win as it is but when you’ve come so close this many times it has to wear on you a bit.
  22. Ha. That’s my next big personal investment but maybe the wife and kids come first? I always struggle with that question.
  23. A great finish to WMO that no one outside of die hard golfing fans saw.
  24. Never knew how bad it can get. Always seems like the sport is thriving with practically every course doing well.
