I haven't used an alarm clock in years because I can somehow tell myself when to wake up and I wake up within 10 minutes of the time I want.

This week, I decided to put it to the test and tell myself to wake up at like 3:00 or 4:00am and see I could still wake up when I wanted. Sunday I told myself to wake up at 2:30am, sure enough, I woke up 2:35. Monday I told myself to wake up at 5:00am and woke up at about 4:50. And last night, I told myself to wake up at 3:45am and I woke up a minute before.

It's so strange. I don't know how it's possible. All I have to do is tell myself when to wake up and I wake up at that time. I don't get it. Can anyone else do this or something similar to it?

Career Bests:

9 Holes--37 @ The Fairways at Arrowhead-Front(+2)

18 Holes--80 @ Carroll Meadows Golf Course(+9)

 

Home Course:

1) The Fairways at Arrowhead

2) Mayfair Country Club


Can you use this power on other things?

I use an alarm clock but I always wake up before it goes off and turn it off. I'm a morning person though and I make it a point to get enough sleep. I also work out. Working out (or being physically active) is probably the best thing you can do to insure your sleep is sound and regular.

Cool man. I have a similar power and wondered if there was anyone else like me in the world. I was too shy to share this power, but now that I have found you I can tell you I can do the same with a slight different scenario...

I stand in front of the stall and say... pee !!! ... and man, pee comes out, right when I say it... no need for anyone to tell me or anything like it... it´s just amazing.

Should we call a TV show, or something??


PS: It´s all in good fun, don´t get mad...

Please don´t swing while I´m talking !!

my super power is...
when i play with hacks... they usually have the best round ever...
its happened quite often... i even played with a friend who i never saw break 90... shot a 78...
an old guy i got paired up with... shot 5 pars in a row and claimed to be a bogey golfer...
a senior lady almost aced a short par3 and got a tap in birdie for the first time...
the only trick is... we have to play as a pair... no 3somes or 4somes... superpowers fail if its more than 1 person at a time... lol
guess im good luck

flopdarock I'm playing with you next round!


I'm kinda the same but it's only works with one of my friends.
Whenever I play with him he always plays excellent.
In the past 3 rounds he nearly got a ace twice (he managed to hit the pin on one of them) and shot 77, 81 and 83.
He plays of 17 supposedly.

I have a super power too. When fat people stand next to me, they look really fat.

I set an alarm just as a backup, but I too wake up when I need to. It's weird. I guess our bodies just know.

Seriously, if you Google this, you will find that it isn't an oddity. There have been studies and several methods you can use to train yourself. I'm the same way, but always set my al;arm just in case. This is probably because I go to bed most every night at 10 and am up at 530.

i do something kind of similar, ive been waking up at 615 for a while so now my body jsut wakes up at that time, like within 5-10 minutes like you.. sometimes ill even wake up and open my eyes and look at the alarm clock and at that exact time the alarm will go off, its kind of weird... sometimes if something major is going on the next day and i have to wake up the next day at a certain time, my body does it then too.

I often wake up just before my alarm is about to go off and I hate it. I always feel cheated out of that extra 5 minutes sleep. Never tried just wanting to wake up at a certain time though. Might give it a go one day when I don't actually have to get up to be anywhere.

You're powers are spilling over to me. When I read this post, I almost pee'd my pants!

Our dogs are our alrm clocks. They wake us up just before 7 every morning to be fed!

Daylight Saving Time really messed them (and therefore, us) up for a while.

i wake up super early too and i'm 16. i love mornings though. alarm clocks are no use to me cause i do something similar to what you do within 5 minutes. i also manage to help people when they play with me, like people who never break 100/90 do when they play with me. i wonder what else our mind is capable of cause this whole morning thing is too small, lets think on a grander scale....

I don't need an alarm clock anymore. I wake up bang on time - or rather as soon as my prostate wants me to wake up.

I almost got chilled by reading this post. Have you came to Dulles Airport (IAD) few days ago? exact to be 11/21/09 around 3 p.m? I was there and using stall and a guy stand next to me say "pee' and did pee...

    • Day 133: did a stack session. 
    • You can pre-order an R50 here for pretty rapid shipping (these are back-ordered almost everywhere): https://www.playbetter.com/products/garmin-approach-r50-golf-launch-monitor-simulator?ghref=2301%3A700794. This is an affiliate purchase, and I'm willing to kick back lifetime ad-free Supporter membership here on TST or a 90-minute GEARS session for the cost of a regular member lesson (about 1/3 the cost). Also, I'll record a video myself soon when I get an R50.
    • Day 58 - 2024-11-27 Some quick 90-yard shots on a particular hole… before a lesson and testing out multiple Foresight Launch Monitors on GSPro.
    • Day 209 (27 Nov 24) - Easy session with the LW - short pitches replicating greens side up and downs. Finished up with the 7i and hard foam balls - making 1/2 to 3/4 swings with deliberately slowed tempo…from varied lies. 
    • Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.
