Frivolous post I know.....but very frustrated!!!!

I haven't had time to get out to play a round or even 9 in about a month....actually, it's been about 3 months since I was able to put in a full round.

So I was wondering how long can you go without playing some golf, with loosing your mind? I can usually make 2 weeks, by the third week my mind is on "Must Play Golf" mode about 80% of the time, by the fourth week, get out of my way ...I need to play!!!

Unfortunately, I have been working super long hours at work, and trying to build two start ups (mine and my wife's), plus a 9 month old at home....it gets a little hectic to find time to play....
It's the indian, not the arrow! But it sure is nice to have good arrows!!!!!

Its been raining way too much here, and I am really starting to get mad. I had my best score the last time out and have not been able to capitalize on it.

Last year, i could have cared less, this year its exact opposite. I am golf 24/7. Its very frustrating to be a novice newb:) I want so badly to play better, but an enjoying getting out there alot to practice. I play atleast once a week but hit the driving range atleast once if not twice weekly. Its very close to my work so we head up during lunch hr.

After a couple of days I get irritable. Only made one full round so far this season and it really bothers me. The weather only seems pleasant enough to play while I am at work. I am getting pretty close to building an ark I think....stupid rain. The usual bare spot in my back yard is huge compared to previous years, as all I have been able to do is practice lobbing and pitching. I can't walk by the bag, which is in plain sight, without pulling a club out. Maybe I have a little OCD when it comes to golf.

LOL I think you and I are on that same ark!!!!!

My bag is in my room, and is the first thing I see when I wake up, and the last thing I see before going to sleep.....It drives my crazy not being able to practice or play more. I can't wait for my 9 mo old to turn 3.....cuz we will be hitting the range often!!! And no, I refuse to be Tiger's dad!!!!

I have to go three or four months without play every winter. This past winter was practically unbearable! I can only do so much chipping and putting in the living room. Tiger Woods 09 on the PS3 is fun but not quite the same. Neither is the indoor simulator I went to a couple of times. Now that summer is here, it takes about a week before I start getting really anxious and irritating to be around (ask my wife and kids...)

I picked one week in the poll, but really it only takes about 4 days before I start to get the shakes. It's worse after a good round like today (shot 79)... I finished about noon and at 5 PM I'm already getting antsy for the next round.

    • Day 446 - 2025-12-20 Woke up early and got some swings in before teaching putting all day. Looking forward to doing the same tomorrow.
    • It's miles better, though.
    • Went up to Erie for a lesson. I still need to work on how I shift my weight into my right leg and turn into the right leg. I extend it too much and externally rotate it too much. That all causes me to over rotate the hips and cause weight shift issues in the downswing. I need to feel like my right leg gains flex (it doesn’t), and my knee cap faces forward. The right hip sinks back and right. I need a need a ton more internal rotation. I still have some right elbow issues in the backswing. The path is better, but too much right elbow bend. I need to maintain width in the right elbow and let my right shoulder retract more, let’s say at A3, which helps keep that right arm extended.
    • Day 130 12-20 Today was just swinging what i had and go from there. Did focus on getting to lead side. Recorded swings for lesson  and hit real balls.
