Hey folks, I recently moved to Washington state from over twenty years in Ketchikan, Alaska. Needless to say, the last six months have been the first time I've been able to play consistently ever. I am really enjoying myself (most the time) and seeing my score slowly creep down out of the cloud range.

Many thanks to "thesandtrap.com" crowd for hosting their blog and this new forum. I look foreword to interacting with many of you.

Feel free to call me muskegman. Muskeg is a spongy moss that covers the ground where I used to live. That's where I got the name.

Welcome, Jeff. In Februray I will once again be calling Edmonds, WA home. I met my wife there three years ago when I was stationed in Tacoma and now we've decided that New Orleans isn't the place for us, so we're moving back "home." I'm in the Navy and have been to Ketchikan several times for exercises as well.

I'm new to golf, especially the playing aspect (heh), but it'd be great to have someone to shank a few balls around with.

Sign me up Aaron. I can shank with the best of them. Let me know when you show up and we'll go hack around.

What a trip! My wife's folks live in Sedro Wooley (just north of Mt. Vernon). I'd would have golfed Avalon GC (in Burlington) last Friday but I was sick over Thanksgiving weekend. It was brutal laying in bed when I could have been out on the course.

Here's a story for you... Leavenworth Golf Club in Washington State was a fun play last summer with three of my buddies. The first hole is one of those drive off a cliff and watch it fly holes. We played 9 holes our first day there because we didn't have time for more. I had the low score of the day but it wasn't pretty. I think I hit three trees and each time my ball ended up in the middle of the fairway. I'll take a win however I get it.

So you were hitting the woods well that day, eh?

A win is a win indeed!

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
