Ugh!!!

Before (around 12:30pm)


After (between 5:00 and 5:30pm, same day)


Needless to say, anyone looking to win some money in a golf match against me may want to ask in the next few days. I have a feeling I'll be "remembering" ten cubic yards of mulch for quite awhile...

And let me guess...that wasn't enough mulch to finish the job :(

Hopefully the smell won't be with you for long.

It wasn't manure, Everardo. It was mulch. It smelled like... tree bark and dirt. Very little smell at all.

It was enough to finish the job, and no, I didn't golf. Today, though... be interesting to see how it goes. Hands and shoulders still sore.

    • I think you're underestimating the lateral accuracy of mid/high handicaps even with wedges in hand. 
    • Option 1 for 8 iron and above. (150 yards and above), Option 2 for 9 iron and below. To pick one, since 75% or my irons are 9 iron or less (I play my rounds at 6,000-6,200 yards 90% times), I would settle for Option 2. Basically under Option 1 a 15 yards dispersion left or right for short irons and wedges would be terrible. I mean who wants to hit half wedges 15 yards left or right? That would make me quit golf. But OTOH the +/-10% (10 yards long/short variance but dead straight) would be manageable.
    • Day 234: Quick range session. Working on lower body stuff in the backswing. Looking slightly better, but going to need more work. I do think I lost a bit of my previous wrist stuff in the backswing while practicing, so something to keep an eye on.
    • First option, easily. ± 15 yards with an 8I is unacceptably poor. Every iron would basically overlap two other irons plus a little into the other one (max of one, min of the one two irons away).
    • I'd still take the first option. Knowing exactly how far your ball is going to carry every single time is huge.  Plus an average dispersion of 30yds isn't that big, that's still going to result in the overwhelming majority of your shots on the green.
