    Elmwood was a joke since it is a par 68. I played Indian Creek yesterday and the greens were lightning quick.

    I know, just stone is so wide open that it’s a fairly easy play.

    From a EAL IG story, just casually reading some Hemingway by the pool next to a golf course. He couldn’t try any harder.

    Started lining up my putts using the alignment on the Pro V1 while practicing the other day. Made like 10 10 footers in a row. Pretty novel concept for a +3 hcp that teaches people how to play for a living.

    This reminds me of being at the driving at the Seminole course while back at FSU. There was a practice bunker to the left of the range. I skulled the hell out of one and it flew under a raised up truck in the parking lot. The ball loudly ricocheted between the ground and under carriage a dozen times. I scurried over to my car and hid while the shame and embarrassment subsided.

    so today I decided to play a quick 9 holes...and the two groups in front of me that wouldn't let me play through made it 2 hours. But It was two guy who could barely golf sharing time with their wives/gf's who were learning to golf, so I couldn't complain too much.


    However, I have started doing this before my rounds and I feel like I'm putting better. I drop an alignment stick down on the green, about 4/5 yards from the cup. line up a straight in putt. Then just continually sink the same putt over and over. I look stupid and feel stupid, but its definitely helping.

    Don’t think that’s stupid at all. Good way to boost confidence in your putter and ensure alignment is good

    IrishLAX2 or anyone else have strong opinions on rain gear? Needing to get some pants for Bandon. Last year at a charity tournament I bought both the short and long sleeved FJ HydroLite jackets at a huge discount but need pants now; are the FJ pants worth the extra cost?

    Agreed, I only bought those jackets last fall because the tournament shop had them discounted by about 40%. I’m also currently annoyed with FJ because I bought the new Superlites in April and already had a problem on the toe of one of the shoes; I reached about when it first came up and they said not to send them until their facilities reopen after Covid (understandable) but I haven’t been able to get a response since they’ve reopened.

    Hard to hit a 3 wood 280 without a spine. That’s just solid anatomy management.

    I went golfing at Stonewall Jackson resort today with a vendor from work. There were two of them and me with my boss. We got to the 3rd hole and there's a guy teeing off. All of us are working so we are just waiting for him to finish up while we're checking emails.

    After hearing his third shot, we put down our phones He's still going back and forth from the tee to his bag to get another ball. Apparently he isn't putting any in his pocket. He hit FIVE tee shots while we were there. What a fucking asshole. Someone told me that it was probably devine and a lot started to make sense.

    After 3rd tee shot i wouldn’t have even looked for any of my errant shots and would have just drove straight to the next tee box.

    Breakfast ball off the first tee if it’s before 8AM and you can’t get to the range because you’re still drunk from the night before. No other exceptions for reloads.
