I play in Palm Desert, staying at the timeshares at the Marriott.   (timeshares are like boats, using someone else's is great, but I'd hate to have my own).   Desert Willow is my favorite course to play, but I'll also play ShadowRidge and, since I stay there, Desert Springs.   I'll be there again this summer, if you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them!

Ever think that maybe you're taking your competition golf too seriously?

I approach both the same way, with the same routine.  It makes no sense to me to change anything up just because it's a competition - just the opposite in fact.  Changing routine or mindset back and forth just leads to inconsistency.

Actually, not really...  I liked my coach quite a bit.  Out here the heat is nothing and I personally didn't mind it.  I actually met up with him last month on the course and we've played a few times since.

I was just trying to make the point that it seems a bit odd to get on somebody for wearing pants in the 80s when we wore them until it hit 100.
