i played sunday and gave up trying to hit anything other than my lob wedge with a full swing...i just started hitting with a half, punchy swing and it was working better at least...i suck

man, my putting has been bad lately...but my chipping has been better

one of these days maybe i can be passable at two things at once

weather permitting i may go play twilight on sunday by myself at the cheap, easy course

loosen your grip and don't be so tight in your arms and shoulders. you'll knock off 2 strokes and get to 145.

I played a ton a golf this past weekend when I visited my parents. Shot a 39 and a 37 on two par 36 nines. The second one tied my dad, who I've never tied or beaten him on a nine. It was glorious.

Been averaging rounds in the mid-40s lately, so it was a nice surprise to put it all together for a weekend.

not O'Fallon, but near there...St. Mary's or St. Charles sound right?

somehow i was 6 over through the first 6 holes, no thanks to my tee shots...they were god awful, but scrambling saved me...i shot a 49 on the front nine with three out balls out of bounds or in water...it's a very easy course, but i'll take it...the back nine was more of a mixed bag with a few blow up holes

i kept topping them - mostly with a regular hybrid and Adams 4-hybrid....can’t keep my head down i guess...hardly any slices though

i was pushing my short irons and wedges a bit left and right, but was making good contact pretty consistently

very few swings over 75%

hit 2 buckets this morning..got an old wedge regripped...looking at buying a new hybrid

Pretty excited for golf this weekend and the PGA coming up.

fire ants

playing tomorrow...it will probably be packed so i hope they don't make us pair up with another group
