Thanks Jeff. I haven't been golfing yet, been too busy with school. I am a new golfer. I spent 20 years in the Army and retired 2 years ago. I spent 13 of my years up your way. We lived in Lacy. I finish school this week and I hope to get out there and golf instead of just watching it on TV.

Yeah, my grandpa was stationed at Fort Lewis when he retired. They lived in Steilacoom and my folks met in Tacoma. Tacoma hasn't turned into the greatest place to live... too much gangsta for me. Lacey is pretty quiet as far as that goes. We just bought a house in Lacey, but I keep Olympia up because theres a much higher chance people will recognize that.

    • The chatter in my brain is when the distance is between clubs since I am pretty weak at shortened backswings, etc. I try to simply decide if being long or short is the better outcome and choose my club based on that and simply not even try for the “real” distance.  For me a full normal swing is what I strive for.
    • I saw this comment made in a golf article... "Most golfers stand over a 4- or 5-iron still negotiating with themselves. They think about how hard to swing, whether they have the right club, if they have the aim correct and more. It’s a lot to deal with and long irons punish the “half-in” golf swing." I am not sure the "most golfers" is correct regarding the bolded part. I can understand if there is a bunker, water, and/or OB that a lot of golfers would be fixated on that. I am not sure that leads to ending up more times there. Pending your level in golf, the variance is so large in outcomes, it could be just with in the expected outcomes. I can understand if have a big lake on the right side of the hole being one of the most terrifying shots for right-handed amateur golfers.  I am not sure many golfers are standing over the ball talking to themselves, "Ok, maybe I should step back and pull the 4-iron. Am I lined up right? Oh, the wind came up, should I swing harder? What am I going to have for dinner tonight, maybe steak. (Joking, somewhat 😛)" A question is that how much chatter do you get while standing over the ball. Are you questioning the everything about your golf shot?
