vBulletin 3.5 is out. vBulletin is the software that powers this forum, and the version we're running here is 3.0.9.

Version 3.5 features a lot of changes. I'm going to push the upgrade off until after the Newport Cup (October 15-16) as the current message board is working fairly well. However, shortly after October 16, the forum will be down for a few hours while I run the upgrade.

After that, the forum may be somewhat "bland" or "default style" for awhile until I figure out how to get back to the Sand Trap look to which we've all grown accustomed. Then again, maybe then will be as good a time as any to change the look of the forum.

This is just a notice. I'll post here a day or so before I plan to do the upgrade. Please continue to use and enjoy the forum in the meantime.

I ran the upgrade already and I didn't lose the "look" at all.

If you run any hacks, you will lose those but the colors and such will remain.

They don't mention this in the instructions but don't upload the images folder, you may lose any custom images that you have.

Guys this is a great set up for your forum. I'm glad to see you guys use Vbulletin. Its by far the best!!! I hope to be a poster on this forum for along time. SO many of the other golf forums are junk. Or have junk hosting.

Thanks guys

The upgrade has been completed. I have some tweaks to make (like removing the style chooser, if I can figure out why it's suddenly appeared).

If you see something broken or that acts funny, let me know.

The WYSIWYG editor looks a little funny....missing the font styles and size functions......some sizing icons in the upper right are also missing.

Check the client script folder, it may have not completely uploaded.

It uploaded and it looks okay here. Check your browser: it may be crap.

There really isn't a WYSIWYG editor. It's a text box with controls above it, and it looks okay to me:

I cleard my cache and cookies and got the sizing thing back but am still missing some icons.....no biggie, my computer is just limping along and is slated for replacement in a couple of weeks so it may just be me.

First thing I noticed was the hyperlink color.... Funny how you get so used to a look. Can't get the quick reply button to work, but maybe that's a profile thing.

Eric, I noticed you changed your autograph!

Oh yeah, that was green before, huh? I'll probably fix that. My autograph is the same.

      Spark League at Severna Park Golf

      By Paloma ·

      Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area?

      I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By iacas ·

      Day 552, May 7, 2024 Played nine holes with @NatalieB with irons only from her tees. Didn't really finish out any holes, just hit the irons and approaches and some chips.

      Revisiting My First Golf Instructor

      By klineka ·

      What has gone downhill? Have you been practicing properly, filming your swing, working on exactly what he suggested without straying? My thoughts are that your results/outcomes from a lesson a year ago probably aren't all that relevant anymore.  And carry distance is far more important than total distance. Total distance is going to vary significantly based on course conditions.

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By snapfade ·

      One thing that has helped me tremendously is to spray the club face with foot powder when I am on the range. Seeing ball impact can be quite helpful if you are hitting shots all over the place. It's not the cure all, but a good little thing to do on the range. The other thing, and I will forget to do it, is the pre-shot routine. Find me a spot a foot or so from the ball in-line with my target, take my stance, take the swing.  Sometimes you take a BS practice swing with no thought. Make it deliberate.  As far as swing thoughts. I have 3 check-points. First is set-up, Second is my take away, Third is my downswing. I cant explain what I think I just know in my mind. Its a feeling that I have that feels right and experience has shown that if I follow those 3 thoughts more than likely the outcome will be what I was looking for. Now, thinking about the feeling and executing it properly is a whole different thing, that;s why I practice, I used to be over a 20 handicap, I am down to a 15.1 in about a year.  I feel like its good progress. the goal is a 10 by the end of the year. If I make it great, if not, hey at least Im not in Gaza. LOL
