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.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By StuM · Posted

      The chatter in my brain is when the distance is between clubs since I am pretty weak at shortened backswings, etc. I try to simply decide if being long or short is the better outcome and choose my club based on that and simply not even try for the “real” distance.  For me a full normal swing is what I strive for.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I saw this comment made in a golf article... "Most golfers stand over a 4- or 5-iron still negotiating with themselves. They think about how hard to swing, whether they have the right club, if they have the aim correct and more. It’s a lot to deal with and long irons punish the “half-in” golf swing." I am not sure the "most golfers" is correct regarding the bolded part. I can understand if there is a bunker, water, and/or OB that a lot of golfers would be fixated on that. I am not sure that leads to ending up more times there. Pending your level in golf, the variance is so large in outcomes, it could be just with in the expected outcomes. I can understand if have a big lake on the right side of the hole being one of the most terrifying shots for right-handed amateur golfers.  I am not sure many golfers are standing over the ball talking to themselves, "Ok, maybe I should step back and pull the 4-iron. Am I lined up right? Oh, the wind came up, should I swing harder? What am I going to have for dinner tonight, maybe steak. (Joking, somewhat 😛)" A question is that how much chatter do you get while standing over the ball. Are you questioning the everything about your golf shot?
