No. Been working 20+ OT hours. My golf has suffered.

If you're not playing golf... What's the purpose of having more money?

Pay bills and support your family. My son has strait A's and has become a great golfer. I can help pay for his future and become even better than me as I have with my father.

Could you make significantly more money if you played significantly less golf? ...

I have a decent job, but it entails a lot of miscellaneous duties which get in the way of a "second job." So, I could make a little more money by playing significantly less golf, but not a whole lot.

Besides actually playing golf, I like to get out into the green fairways and see the trees and the outdoors. Working additional money in my line of work would mean sitting in front of a computer even more than I do. I have had minor bouts with carpal tunnel syndrome from too much keyboarding, so I think the golf would help my overall work longevity more than increased keyboard time each week. Anyway, less golf means lower morale means lower productivity. So, I guess the answer for me is NO. Let's play golf...

If you really use all your free time that you use to golf then you'll be so miserable and old by the time you get to retire and use it you won't even want it anymore.

Enjoy life while your young.

I'm back in school getting my Masters, and I make it a point to at least go out a few times, whether its to the range to work on something or on a course. Reason being is that I feel that golf is my escape. Even as frustrating the game can be, I am one that keeps working on something. I just have me, my club, and the ball. It keeps me sane under my schedule of always studying or working.

      That is a bit hyperbolic, I think. Most despicable is a bit much.  Again, a bit over the top here.  Most athletes are probably closer to being normal human beings than degenerates and avaricious scum.  Just sounds like you want to generalize all athletes because it is easy to do so. Hey, generalizing a subset of a population is entirely a human thing to do.

      This is so awesome; my two biggest lifetime hero and the biggest superstars of the past 35 years in golf……both turned out to be the two of the most despicable human beings in professional sports… Between this and everyone whoring themselves out for Saudi Arabia… Used to love golf because I thought they were smarter, better people than the other sports. Turns out a huge percentage of them are total degenerates and avaricious scum like every other sport!

      This isn't going to show you lateral dispersion at all. It's basically just a radar (for speed) launch monitor. It doesn't measure spin or anything like that. Not even launch direction.
