Ya thats awesome that they are doing that. I just wish our government would help get the stuff shipped over and show some common decency to the troops who keep our freedom alive.

A great idea. Having been in Afghanistan for six months, I would have loved to have some clubs to swing while there. It really irritates me that we run into so much trouble when trying to get a large shipment (of anything) delivered to our folks over there. --LBB

we did something for the troops at my work,(grocerystore) we were selling packs of cookies at the registers and ppl wanted to do toothbrushes and apparently panty hose is big over there helps with sand fleas or something, but anyway

we sold over 1000 packs of cookies, and countless freakin toothbrushes, we called up our town office cause they would send stuff tot he troops, they said for us to send it over it would cost over 1000$ in shipping yes 1 thousand lol

so then we had to put cups out at the registers explaining what was going on, and we raised the 1000 in like 2 days, it was quick

but after we raised all that money a guy from the national guard called and told us he was making a special trip to iraq and they would take it over for us for free, so i guess it just depends who ya deal with as far is getting them to take it over

so we took the 1000 and bought as many cookies and toothbrushes and panyhose we could get.

That was a great thing to do. No matter what anyone's opinion is on the war, the young men and women over there fighting for not only the freedom of our country, but the freedom of others need to know that we support them and appreciate all that they do.

    • Day 22 - 2026-01-11 More mirror work. Back outdoors tomorrow.
    • 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)
    • Day 9: 2026.01.11 Hit some balls at the range, concentrating on weight distribution at address, got some on film.
    • Day 468 - 2026-01-11 Loooooong day. Did some work in the patio door (as a mirror) when I got home.
    • 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?
