When faced with a dogleg right hole....

Aim at the trees and think "My natural power slice will keep this in play..."

Proceed to hit it dead straight and into the woods

or

Hmmm shot par 4 I could hit a 5i off the tee and a 7 iron to the hole or cream my driver..... Picks the driver and swing out of my shoes only to see the ball spray into the rough.... so an easy 4 is now a hard 6!

Lastly...

Hmmm having a bad swing day.. I know if I just swing harder all will be better.... then proceed to come way over the top and makes things 100 times worse

After double bogey on hole one: Sure, I'll have a beer, can't hurt...

After tipping the cart girl a $20: Make sure you come around often... (never does)

Wife calls after finishing hole 14: Yeah, almost done, home in 15 minutes... (yeah right)

"Let's see...I've got a bunch of trees in front of me...the green is 100 yards away...I usually hit my 7 iron 150 yards...so if I blast it through the tree, the leaves will kill 50 yards and i'll be on the green..."

    • Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out. 
    • Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though. 
    • Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part. 
    • FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.
    • I know Dean Snell designed the original Pro V along with a couple of other brands tour balls.  How exactly does the Snell ball have problems.  Did he change something in the design or is a manufacturing error since he cannot afford the unlimited R&D budgets of the big manufacturers to iron out flaws
