Go try PGA West Stadium Course's 230 yarder. Water surrounds 2/3rds of the thing. I was 2 under par last time I stepped up to the tee of the hole. Needless to say, I was no longer 2under after...

That's the hole Trevino got H.I.O. for a Million bucks, right? It's beautiful. I didn't play it from the tips... but I wasn't 2 under at this time either

We have a hole at my home course that's about 210 uphill from the blues. I hit 7-woods on the green often. People think too much about the pin on par 3's...

This one is 238, and forever into the wind. That bail out on the right is NOT as big as it looks.

And it is #17. Talk about a "kick to the nards" hole with a good round on the line.......

    • Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out. 
    • Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though. 
    • Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part. 
    • FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.
    • I know Dean Snell designed the original Pro V along with a couple of other brands tour balls.  How exactly does the Snell ball have problems.  Did he change something in the design or is a manufacturing error since he cannot afford the unlimited R&D budgets of the big manufacturers to iron out flaws
