Hi all,

Looking forward to chatting with you all on occasion.  I retired last year from Boeing with 28 years as an senior avionics engineer.  Worked on design, program management, and customer fleet introduction on 777, 747-8, and 787,  Prior to that I retired as Master Chief (E9) Avionics Technician, U S Navy.

We are now snow birding between Sammamish and Glendale.  We live on the 12 fairway of the Legend at Arrowhead Golf Club here in Glendale.

I prefer not to associate with witches, they make me nervous.  (If you are able to be in two places at the same time, in my book, you are a witch!  Unless you are Loki of Asgard?)

Arizona, huh?  I used to live in San Diego (still not too far from there now) and it seemed like a lot of Arizonaians (Arizona-ites?  Arizona-uns?  Arizonans?  Arizonans ;)) would move AWAY from there in the summer and come to San Diego to get away from the heat.  What are they called?  "Heat-birds?"  "Sun-birds?"

Anyways, welcome!

You see, we live in Washington 6 months, then in Arizona 6 months. So while we don't live in both simultaneously as you thought to assume, we do it alternately.  As for San Diego, in 20 years of Naval service I spent far to much time there.  Literally speaking we would probably be "rainbirds" considering Seattle's weather.  Hope this clears this up for you.

There was nothing to clear up. ;)  I was being 100% facetious in the first paragraph, and just being silly in the second.  It was just a long winded welcome. :)

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By collegefbfan ·

      Yeah.  As far as remaining still, I was thinking body rotates around the spine like an axis.  Instead of pivoting, some like me, sway, come off that axis, leave weight on back foot, etc.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By iacas ·

      I apologize on behalf of… idiot men. Sorry about that. Next time, tell the guy to shut up. 😛  Day 553, May 8, 2024 18 holes from the whites with @rwolfe. Windy AF today, but hit some good shots. Slid back a little from where I was the previous two days, but… I can get it back. Made a pretty nifty birdie on 12 from some pretty odd places. 😄

      My Swing (Zeph)

      The angles look fine. Get as much light as you can on the area — you want the highest shutter speed you can get. Less blur.

      2024 TST Birdie Challenge

      By Sammydreep ·

      Snap @ Tour Spoon! Birdied 11 yesterday. Hit a poor iron ,stopped on edge of bunker , pitch with my lob wedge landed about 6’ away and went in. Only 12 & 14 to go, long par5’s into the prevailing wind. Might be waiting a while although I did have about 15’ on 12 after the birdie on 11, didn’t miss by much.

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      By RandyBobbitt ·

      Tested the Maxfli TourS yesterday. Compared to my former ball, the Titleist AVX, I got an extra 10 yards off the driver and half a club (5-7 yards) off the irons. The combined extra yardage from the driver and fairway wood meant that on par-5s where I usually hit an 8-iron third shot, I hit a PW. It's just a smidgen softer than the AVX and seems to spin well. Some of the reviews indicated a low ball flight, but I did not notice it. I also did not observe any problems with the paint quality, which was an issue with previous Maxfli models up to and including the U series.  My previous round I tested the Bridgestone E6, a two-piece ball with a different cover. It was OK; the same distance and feel as the AVX but with less spin.
