Bug guts tastefully presented with lime wedges! Which makes it OK...

Awards, Achievements, and Accolades

Business travels have provided me with some really interesting food options.  In this category, it would probably be some sort of sheep soup with eyeballs, and also a plate of chicken feet.  Most weird that I didn't eat was Soft-Boiled Fetal Duck that I was offered in Asia (no thanks).

Most gross tasting was boiled beef tripe in Italy (straight up, "senza niente"). Smell alone made me want to up-chuck in the company cafe.

I live in MN and have been to a lot of different restaurants. The only one I've been to that serves lamb is a Greek restaurant in Blaine.

Drugs are bad. M'kay.
 
I change my swing every time I don't shoot par for the course.

Lamb and buffalo burgers as weird?

I guess it depends on what you classify as weird but wildebeest, kudu, octopus, ostrich, kangaroo pizza, goose, sea urchin, conger eel...

Plus pretty much every course that I had when I dined here:

Weird food my friends have had that I absolutely refuse:

At a wild game night once at a local tavern, I ate bear and rabbit.  Both were OK, but no something I'd go out of my way to have again.

Deep fried goats eyes.  The insided is sucked out with a wooden straw, they are then breaded and deep fried.  Like many have had calamari and rocky mountain oysters, escargo. I am reminded about the occasional articles about insect parts in candy bars etc. Does that count?

I spent a couple years in Thailand and I ate some kind of weird stuff there. Dog is completely acceptable to eat over there and actually tastes pretty good. Of course I had the fried insects - scorpion, grasshoppers, worms, etc. I actually enjoyed the fermented fish (plaa raa) they put in the food in the eastern part of the country. We had grilled field mice on a skewer and some boiled blood soup stuff, it looks like really dark red jello. I figured I would try everything once, and ended up liking a lot of it!!

Here in Arizona they have cow tongue tacos and tacos de cabeza (head meat tacos) at the more "authentic" restaurants. I enjoy trying different types of food. My mom always told me, "don't knock it 'til ya tried it!"

Forgot the duck tongue.  Not a full-on embryo, but it was all leathery like french kissing a.....well...a duck.

    • Day 48. Got out at lunch to the range to hit some driver shots. Haven’t had much practice there. Focused on setup suggested by @iacas and found some very playable results. I did try to hit a couple of bunker shots after that with much less success 🙃
    • Got a rare birdie on #18 Par 5.  Drive was good and left me in range of the green.  I was @ 210 from the center and needed @ 180 to clear a hazard area.  Green had bunkers lest, right and on back. had been struggling and most shots were short so I took the 225 club figuring back of green hit well. i did hit it well, @ 229 per SS and dead on—kind at the pin.  Ended up @ 1 foot off the back in short rough and lucky for me it was a back pin placement.  Chipped about 15 feet leaving a 3 feet putt for par which I sunk.  
    • Yea, so to clarify for me. I do not feel the clubface much in the swing. I feel the weight of the club. I can feel if I hit the club off the heel or toe. When I try to feel if the clubface is open or closed in the swing, I feel it more with my hands, and less of the clubhead. I would classify majority of my swings as not feeling like the clubface does much of all. It feels like I hold the clubface open. In the finish, it doesn't feel like my left hand faces the ground. It feels more like it faces the sky. I will try to be more aware of this, but it was just the sensation I got when I was making what felt like good swings. For the most part, I was hitting slight draws or slight pushes.  On this golf trip, I had to hit a low 8 iron around a tree to the green. I made an alignment adjustment, and actively try to roll my hands a bit more to get it to sling around the corner. I do have a habit of not adjusting how the clubface comes through impact, and I can still hit the ball straight-ish even moving the ball way back in my stance and trying to swing out more.  Yea, my feels are more hands and arms, less actually feeling the clubface.
