A pedestrian (someone working at a vendor for the event) died this morning from traffic near Valhalla. The cops are all probably on edge trying to keep everyone safe. It sounded like it was a solid miscommunication deal. However, a cop hanging onto your vehicle yelling stop usually means stop. I can’t imagine these guys driving more than 15mph around the entrance.  

Either way, I hope Scottie can play well and give it another tun.

I completely buy that explanation. I just don't see how Scottie could have 'assaulted' an officer in any sense of the word. It's not like he was trying to escape a possible DUI or a committed robbery. Not that he is not accountable (there certainly should be some sort of prosecution from the looks of it) but, as someone posted earlier, LPD/State of KY will most probably not miss out on the opportune payday. If they do as I think they will, then that will be one state that I can drop off my list of places to retire.

Assault is not battery. Assault is just the threat or implication. Assault doesn't take much, let's put it that way.

Well, in the least it implies intention. Unless this cop looks like a TP5, I just don't see it. 

Anyway he seems to rolling along just fine. Good for him.

Lawyer up, Scottie.

508.025 Assault in the third degree. (1) A person is guilty of assault in the third degree when the actor: (a) Recklessly, with a deadly weapon or dangerous instrument, or intentionally causes or attempts to cause physical injury to: 1. A state, county, city, or federal peace officer.

(2) (a) For a violation of subsection (1)(a) of this section, assault in the third degree is a Class D felony.

https://apps.legislature.ky.gov/law/statutes/statute.aspx?id=53982

For what it's worth, I think the newspapers are misreporting the charges. Kentucky seems to bundle assaults against "protected victims" (including peace officers) into s.508.025 - Assault in the third degree. Second degree assault on police isn't mentioned in the state penal code. The assumption would be for the higher level of assault (second degree), the fact that the victim was a police officer would be an aggravating factor in sentencing?

You ever have someone unexpectedly reach into your window to grab you while driving, as it allegedly happened? He probably just panicked momentarily.

Also, Scottie seems to have been unaware that he was actually a full-on police officer, as he had the bright yellow reflective jacket on.

He seems to have confused them with a volunteer type "traffic marshal" or something. I may not be wording that well, but I'm basically saying… he might not have recognized he was a full-on police officer.

It was dark, early, and confusing.

    • I think it's just to provide clarity. If you marked your ball with a pebble or a small twig, that's a loose impediment, and someone else could move it. An "obstruction" or a man-made thing, or an artificial thing, isn't a loose impediment.
    • Day 243 (2 Jan 25) - Grandson directed drills today - he wanted to hit easy pitches into the holes of the Martin bird house (had it at ground level) - it is doable but it calls for a perfectly executed shot.  He came close a couple of times.  For me it’s about distance control and such.  Drill two - me hit same foam balls to him while he’s in the swing saucer - into a slight wind…now it’s distance control plus anticipating the wind.  A fun exercise - got really close on a number of shots.  Drill three - take his youth Cobra SW and hit flops into to the foam ball basket while he was holding it. Great eye-hand work for him - wedge control for me.  That little wedge  works well.  By the end my junior coach was done and I was too….
    • Going to give this a try for a while and see if it sticks.  Day 1 Today was some full practice: 30 minutes of range work focused on coordinating weight transfer based on Evolvr feedback 10 minutes putting speed control work 10 minutes chipping practice with random targets 5 minutes bump and run work with 7 iron
    • Day 23: 1/2/2025 Had a great range session today. It was downright frigid this morning at the range, but the overhead heater made it tolerable. I started off working on my PPJ swing thought. Some slower, swings, somewhat exaggerating the movements. Then I switched focus and just hit the 6-iron about a half dozen times without thinking. I filmed two of these swings to send to Yoda.  After that, I worked my way up and down the bag (random practice... yay.) Hitting one shot with each club aiming at a specific target. I tried to focus on where and not how. Over all, I was pretty impressed with my results.  If you categorize each shot as either good, bad or good enough. I would say nearly all of them were either in the good or good enough category. Again, yay.  I'm going to do some more mirror work tonight, looking at my videos I think I can still improve what I'm doing. But over all, I was really happy with today's range session. I feel like I've had a giant leap forward in my swing. We shall see if the progress can continue.  Yay. 
    • Day 169: did a stack session. Worked on the early backswing stuff with slow rehearsal swings during rest breaks as well.
