Okay all you botany grads, what type of plant/tree is this?  The photos are from Sicily.

That looks like a persimmon tree.

 Sure looks like a persimmon tree.  I think my dad had a driver, 3W and 5W made out of that.

Ding ding ding!!!

@billchao was correct, along with everyone else who concurred with his response.  The tree is found throughout Sicily, although I suspect it is not a native plant.  And the tree is used for its fruit, not its wood.

      Same here.  I know others here hate it, but I like the shotgun start idea.  Gets more golfer on the course quicker & and shortens length of time to show the tournament.  All too often coverage starts well into the round and you miss a lot of the early golfers.  Of course, the coverage needs to actually show them and drop the fluff pieces.  We should be able to see more actual golf in the same tv time allotment.

      Day 154: did an hour on an indoor simulator. Played 18 holes and then did the range for a bit.

      Very fair, I can also have a tendency to think that way, and it's struck me too that it's maybe a generational thing.    I don't necessarily think things will end up worse, and I also think LIV have some interesting ideas while the PGA were too old fashioned. All that said , I think getting there is going to involve several lost years for the sport, and I get the dismay some are expressing.

      Day 1 (10 Dec 23) - Putting drills today (total rainout).  Missed posting yesterday so I get to start over again (actually wrote up the post, just failed to submit).  At this rate I’ll never get back to red numbers….😁

      Day 15: 12/10/2023 Over speed training today. Oh my goodness, I was slow. Seemed the harder I tried the worse it got. ... Looking forward to being better on Tuesday.
