I cheap out on greens fees/carts. I don't walk because it's fun or healthy. I walk because it's cheap. I go for twilight rates, military discounts, and coupons. Anything in the $10 to $18 range after said discounts is good, and over $20 to walk is unacceptable. I have a caveat that the course has to be good. A local club had a course where I can ride for $22 on a weekend, but the greens don't have any grass; unacceptable when the sweet course on the GD 100 Courses You Can Play list down the street is cheaper to walk.

Somtimes I treat myself to the $60+ round, but it has to be a special occasion with friends.

Next year perhaps I'll get a membership. I can make that into the ultimate cheapout if I play 200 times.


Oh yeah, and I've never payed retail for a club.

Ben Hogan is my swing coach.

Balls-There are so many good deals out there. In the last year, I purchased new balls from a store, once.

Golf shoes-Same deal. Purchased two new pairs of TW Nike shoes for $51 and $35. A flat out steal.

    • Day 54. Was in a good place last week. Yesterday’s round killed my confidence.  Full swing practice trying to get back to where I was but struggled with being tired and tense. Back to basics tomorrow. 
    • Welcome back! Evolvr.com? I don't use the full extreme end of it, and that's probably dipped to 75% or so nowadays. But I use the sole more than I don't, yeah. Also… it's good to learn this shot: Middle up. Not generally outside your feet in either direction. I generally have it slightly forward of center, yeah. Short version: tip your upper body in the direction of the slope. Look at the GC3. You can find them for really good prices sometimes.
    • 3 rainouts in a row….that’s SAD Sorry, I’m in MI or I would take you up on a round.  
    • Day 3:  I tried to hit a bucket at the range but an 80 year old man (he told me his age, showed me his knee replacement scars, told me all about his chronic low back pain, etc) couldn’t pass up the opportunity to mansplain to me every little thing I’m doing wrong.  Dude, it’s my third frickin day.  I know I need to twist my hips more, I know I need to keep my head/chest down and not pop up, I know I need to hit through the ball and follow through further, yada yada yada.  I know.  That’s exactly what I’m trying to work on.  How about you tell me or show me how to do those things instead of telling me to watch Iron Byron videos?  Rough day.  
    • Day 132: 5/7/24 Full Speed Spectrum Training session 8/24. 7th training program overall.    Another slow session but 4 mph faster than my last session, which was my slowest ever. Going to the doctor on Friday to check on pulled neck muscle.
