The operative word in the Pee Wee Herman statement is "obligated". Pee Wee Herman by "choice" is mucho better.

I forgot about Daylight savings time---that's truly awesome and super duper. Wish the Laws of nature would permit winter Daylight savings time too.

Life is truly great, and a proper list would fill pages and pages! Just a few of the highlights are:
being married to hottie MILF who makes lots of money and tolerates my bs
Having a wonderful 8 yr old daughter who happens to love golf as much as her daddy
a great career that gives me lots of free time, and enough cash to finance the things I want to do
living 3 miles from a course that I'm a member of, that is hardly ever crowded
my skills on the charcoal grill

(2) great kids that got through their teens alive and well

A career that I haven't gotten bored with after 26 years

Lots & lots of golf nearby at very reasonable prices

And being single so that I have time to enjoy it all

seeing your 9 year old daughter mature before you own eyes. My daughter was in the first tee class room and the instructor asked if the kids knew what city the Masters was playing in? nobody knew so he gave out the first hint, that the first letter of the city started with an "A" and my daughter heard me say that it was played Augusta, Georgia and hint triggered her memory, so she said Augusta to the instructor........... I was impressed she remember after only hearing the city one time.

Kids just amaze you!

    • 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.
    • Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.
    • Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.
    • The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.
    • I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
