Currently live in NJ and work in NYC. Born in Manhattan and raised up between there and the Bronx.

Got a late start on this thing we call golf, started after my 50th birthday. This is my fourth year playing and I finally got the little lady to take an interest in the sport.

Play mostly on military courses, which for the most part are very reasonable priced. This leaves me more money to buy equipment. What is it with golfers in general, this buying frenzy?

Well hope to learn a lot and share the little I know.

Regards to all my fellow golfers out there.

Anthony

I switched over from the Adams Idea A2s. I like the feel of them, but they have taken me a longer time to hit them solid. The PW is more like a 9 iron and they go from there.

I hit each iron farther than the Ideas by five to seven yards. Like everything it takes a while to get used to them based on your swing.

    • Day 24: did a stack session. Worked a bit on downswing feels during breaks. 
    • Day 444 - 2025-12-18 Light day of hotel room work. GEARS Summit v2.0 today. Good day.
    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
