I do miss the handshake on 18.  Our deal now is we touch putter heads after the round.  I still remove my cap/hat when doing so.  

Not a fan of this. I’m not going to mess up the finish on my putter for not good reason.

I’ve been doing the elbow bump, air fist bump, or tipping my hat at people after a round.

Yes!  I did this in the last few in-person meetings I had back in March and I didn't know why others were doing it, but I followed along.  I knew the reference, I just didn't know what the health thing going on was that caused it.  I hope this trend continues even after the pandemic.

It’s just me and my husband on the weekend rounds. I played a few times with friends and we just waved goodbyes. No one is touching anything or getting within 6 feet of each other.

I started with that, but now I pretty much extend my middle finger and raise it into the air.

In Legion baseball they tip caps to each other after the game instead of handshakes.  That can work for golf too.

Bumping the grip ends of the putter avoids this problem.

    • Day 58: night putting session for about an hour. Started with lag putting and ended with putts inside 9’. I need to work on putts from 6-12’, but in a solid spot overall. 
    • Birdied a different #6 today (incidentally, also a par-5, but not the same one on which I previously birdied).  Here's the funny thing though:  it's the par-5 that caused me to post my "how do I avoid bogeys?" on par-5s recently.  So I guess I still haven't parred that hole.
    • Day 20, May 24.  Played 18 today, very poor ball driving.  One GIR, and it was a 4-wood from the rough.  Several other instances of hitting a green on a full swing (and at least one full swing motion -- a 50% UW) that wasn't for GIR.   Still shot an 87 and even had a birdie (chip-in).
    • Welcome to TST.  I spent a bit of time in the UK but I had to look up Wagon Wheels.  Don't think I ever saw them.  Had to Google to see.  Couple similar items in US but Google says they are different. 😁
    • Day 264 5-24 Worked on getting chest through and arms down infront of chest. Contact isn't great yet but on video looking better.
