- You carry your clubs in your vehicle at all times just in case someone calls and wants to golf.

The first year we gout our memberships, we would play in the pouring rain and 40* or lower outside. It would be freezing and we would still be out playing.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that does this. This is for everyone that plays courses that have flocks of birds: You know the exact time and location of a flock of geese at any given time; and can describe the path they take and which tee box they prefer. When you can walk down a fairway, look at a divot, and give an exact date when you made it. When you leave work with your golf shoes on to save time because of rush hour traffic

You make your girlfriend pick out all your regular clothes for you because shopping sucks, but you insist on custom matching all your golf clubs with blue New Decade grips so they look cool.

... everyone on the planet knows where you are when youre not answering your cell phone

... you plan absolutely everything around your tee times

... the very first thing you do before you decide where to go on your next vacation is to check out available tee times at courses near where you'll be staying

... you keep asking your brother when hes gonna start teaching your nephew how to play and he's only 3

... you dont ever use your gps unit in your car but have already worn the buttons out on your gps for the course

... you gauge distances in yards or clublengths even when youre not on the course

... your pets are named 'par' 'bogey' 'birdie' 'eagle'

... its also the nicknames you give to your kids

... you have golfballs everywhere... in your car... room... office... pockets

... you clean your clubs more often than you wash your car

...you find that instead of folding your arms. putting your hands in your pockets or otherwise occupying your hands during conversations, you absentmindedly form your golf grip.

I do this without even thinking of it, I probably do it in my sleep, too!

When your dog is named Birdie (guilty)
Your favourite number is your lowest score on 18 holes.
You look at applications online for applying for a job at Titleist or other golf companies.
You go to the local golf store at the simulator at night or during the winter to "stay sharp"
You have a net in the backyard to hit balls into.
Your basement can be referred to as "mini Golf Town" with all your old merchandise.
You have tried playing golf under water with buddies
You call courses to ask if they are draining their ponds to retrieve the balls.
70%of your income goes to golf. the other 30% is food.

    • Day 74 - 2026-03-06 Backswing work out back at the net. Slow.
    • Day 101: did a stack session. Worked on hands down in the mirror during breaks. 
    • Got told off yesterday for doing full swings and full speed swings so went to the range this lunchtime and did some slow speed stuff and freezers. A few videos from my session.    First few are DTL then some FO This one is of me looking at the club on the way back. I think I get my arms lifting all the way back, not that you’d know because YouTube keeps glitching on me.    Second one is two slow backswings. This glitches the first one but the glitch looks like a pretty good position so I’ll live. Second one works. Then another swing back and hit. When I’m not watching or really focusing on it it seems that my upper arm doesn’t lift at first, rather stays roughly where it is and I add the lift at the end so the club comes a bit more inside. I think that’s what I’m going to focus on. This one glitches a bit too but it’s really just pausing. This shows the club coming a bit more inside but not as laid off at the top Then a couple of face on ones And lastly one smoothie and one freezer at normal speed  Quite happy with how this went. I can see my arms are better when I take it slower. Also while I’m still pitching my arms out it doesn’t seem to be as extreme as yesterday. Light at the end of the tunnel 🙂
    • Pablo, you can’t get much safer than cash and a public meetup spot. Don’t know what happened to you there.  Always check their profile to make sure they have either sold stuff, have other things for sale and have a profile that shows they don’t join FB the day before.  Be wary if the price is too low, but those are usually the people who joined 2 days ago and have nothing in their profile .  Craigslist is the place full of scumbags usually.
    • Good images from the short AMG video released yesterday.
