About his PW being 45 degrees...

I think that is a very good point. His 3 iron is only slightly stronger than a traditional 3 iron (21 instead of 23 degrees) but his PW is 5 degrees stronger. In all honesty, it's a 9 iron with an extremely low center of gravity that helps it achieve PW height. For his skill level, 202 yards for a 3 iron is pretty damn good. And there are plenty of scratch golfers who hit their 3 iron 200ish. Which means it's accuracy, not length that accounts for his handicap.

      Day 26 (3 Apr 26) - Played a local private course that I last played in 2020.  Great day of the course management practice skills exercise.  Had a decent round of play working with the pre-shot process, setting a consistent target and making the most of missed greens for some solid up and down pars (including a solid sand save).

      Fun 4 Player Golf Games?

      I like Wolf, it has more of a control your own destiny feel while still able to keep fair with some handicaps thrown in so everyone can contribute.. And if you play wolf with blind/lone wolf multipliers, birdie/eagle multiplier, hammers, the game gets very big very fast. Its our standard game most of the time.

      Spring! Flip flops! This is what we are trying to feel and... ....this is what we are doing. Not going full on at it but this is reasonably gameable speed.
