Just a random guess, but it looks like you probably pulled that shot a mile left huh

i tried to fade it in to the back left pin, ended about 3 yards left of the green pin high. hips turned on the follow through and i held off the finish a little, so it came out as a ugly high fade. funny you mention pulling it, because that was the normal mis-hit that i had in those days. since then, ive improved my handicap by a couple strokes because i was able to get a consistent backswing with consistent hip and shoulder rotation, but the "quiet legs" method worked pretty well.

My father taught me to love the game playoing the rolling hills of Oxbow golf course in rural Southerm Ohio. My aging parents moved to Florida about 15 years ago and I had moved to Atlanta, so I figured I would never get to play the course with him again.

My wife and I moved to Columbus, Ohio in 2004 and my parents came up to Southern Ohio to visit some family and friends. When they arrived in town, I called and asked my father if he happened to bring his clubs. He hasn't been in the best health the last few years, so I was surprised to hear him answer, "I did."

We snuck out early the next morning and played the old course for what was probably the last time. I took a few photos; here's my favorite:

    • Day 4 (24 Jun 26) - Played the mid-week shootout - iffy day on putts as I had 35 and of late been in the upper 20's.   Greens recently verti-cut and they are a bit bump and long haired - no excuses as I need to learn to trust making the proper adjustments.   Overall a decent day with some solid long game shots.

    • Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want. 
    • While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).
    • Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.
