I love playing in the wind. I get to use my imagination to hit different kind of shots. Not very often I have to hit my 200 yrd club from 140. I learned a lot time ago that it's not about how far you hit a club, it's about how high it goes. My most memorable shot into a 40+mph wind was a really high driver (280 off the tee) into a 150 yrd par three and hit the green. It was fun to watch the ball go over the green, then start to float up and backwards, then land on the green.

My swing thoughts:

- Negative thinking hurts more than negative swinging.
- I let my swing balance me.
- Full extension back and through to the target. - I swing under not around my body. - My club must not twist in my swing. - Keep a soft left knee
