regardless of where you'll be, or what you'll be eatin'.... please take a minute and reflect reverently, exactly what this Holiday means. Think of those who've given their all for this country. whether we agreed to the war/conflict for which they died, it's irrelevent on this day. personally, I'll walk out onto the porch and face the East as the sun rises, and I'll salute those honorable men and women. whether they died on the ground, in the air, or on the seas... they were the some of the finest on this planet . Please remind those around you, as you party, why......

I retired in 2006 but this winter I spent a week at Luke AFB near Phoenix. They have a beautfiul clubhouse with the flag atop a hill nearby and the practice green sitting right below it. As luck would have it, there were several days that I was on the putting green when retreat sounded. It felt good to hear Taps again and stop and think for just a minute or two about those who are currently fighting, those who have done their duty and returned, and those who weren't able to.

It's too bad there can't be a national retreat ceremony.

Whoever came up with the saying, "A bad day of golf is better than a good day at work", is a moron.

      Feel like you are left side dominant. Keep the back of your glove running through impact. Keeps leading edge down without digging. You will pick them clean with some zip if the grass is nice and generally acceptable results off anything less than ideal. Works with both hingy or dead hand pitches and chips.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 52 (30 Apr 26) - Had planned a solo round, got invited to be part of trio that included a fmr mini tour pro.  Was fun playing back a set of tees and having to stay in my game plan. Both were very engaging and encouraging in the round.  A good day in working through and making smarter shot choices.

      Determining Out of Bounds

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I mean, a golfer is trespassing and damaging property. So, golf rules don’t supersede state laws. 😉 Like, if it isn’t marked and is off golf property. The right thing to do is take an unplayable lie or take stroke and distance.  Also, this is a liability for the course. The homeowner could easily say the course is liable for damage done because they knowingly didn't mark their boundaries which allowed golfers to trespass and damage property.

      Determining Out of Bounds

      Interestingly enough, if the course (the Committee in Rules terms) doesn't mark the boundaries, there is nothing out of bounds.  I realize that neighboring homeowners would take a dim view of golfers whacking balls from their backyards, but that's what the Definition of Out of Bounds requires. "All areas outside the boundary edge of the course as defined by the Committee."
