I am a police officer in a city south of Boston, 6 years so far. I work the midnight shift to give myself more time for golfing, although it doesn’t always work out as planned haha.

Retired Golf Pro and retired pipefitter hence the name PipePro. 50 years golfing and over 30 as a Golf Pro (Amateur now). Worked every part of the golf business from cart boy, course maintenance, club pro, assistant general manager, golf shop owner (off course), club maker, club repair, mini-tour player (briefly), and teacher. Not in that order. Look forward to talking golf from time to time when the weather doesn't permit play.

Well, I now have to officially change what I put on here. I just accepted a position as a High School Sports Medicine Teacher. I have spent the last 15 years running health clubs as an Exercise Physiologist/Personal Trainer. This will be a huge change for me. I will be going from being on call 7 days a week with crazy hours to an 8 hour day that is only M-F. I will also have 2 months off in the Summer. Can you say single digit?

      Day 11, 1/11/26.  Today was putting, along about 6' of carpet, with coins on the ground to keep me cognizant of what I'm doing.  I think this is the at-home drill from LSW. (Ugh, missed two of the last four days -- 1/10 and 1/8)

      Mizuno Jpx One Driver & Fairway Woods

      I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
