lol, i dont do drugs or anything but it doesnt deprive your brain of oxygen as a means to give you a buzz. It contains thc which gets you high from receptors in the brain. Did you learn that in the ea

the amount you would have to smoke for your golf game to suffer the following day would be LEGENDARY.

Jetsknicks LOl,LOL---me thinks some of those OB shots were on purpose, plus at the time the OB rough at Falcon Head was cut short and made for a good second approach

But if it's OB, you can't play the shot from there. You have to take a penalty and play from the spot of your last shot. So, their scores weren't legitimate.

My Tools of Ignorance:

Driver: Ping I20 9.5*
Woods/Hybrids: Cobra AMP 3W and 3 HY

Irons: Cobra AMP 4-GW

Wedges: Callaway Forged Copper 56* and 60*

Putters: Scotty Cameron  35" (Several of the flow neck blade variety)

Ball: Bridgestone B330-RX and Srixon Z-Star

Bag: Nike Performance Carry

Looks like I'm the lone dissenter.  I haven't paid any attention to this in a long time, and I'm sure the research has improved, but...

Back when I was an active pilot about 15 years ago, a study was published in one of the pilot mags about how long pot had an effect.  They measured both blood level and performance, and found that it was about 72 hours.  Since one of the effects include time and distance distortion (stoned drivers drive too slow), and it also can effect your coordination, it doesn't surprise me at all that it screwed up your game the next day.

So, enjoy the weed, but probably not the night before a tourney or a money game.  Save it for skiing!

On the other hand, if Dock Ellis could pitch a major league no-hitter while tripping on acid (look it up), maybe we should be able to play through it.

True that, but lets paint the picture, wasn't a serious game, I was only keeping score so as to work on improving my game, and to post into the course computer. it was a weekday, they were wearing jeans and parachute pants and I'm sure after the 18, even their cart was floating a foot off the ground. so yeah, I'm thinking some of the strokes they gave me were ----less than accurate, and I'm sure they didn't care.

But fun day none the less.   And as a side note --my round was horrible.

      Short Game Chef (Parker McLachlin) Short Game Videos

      My flop shots are 6-7° down (AoA). Does that answer it? 😄  The longer answer is… You have to be able to do both shots.

      Short Game Chef (Parker McLachlin) Short Game Videos

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I hope you don't mind me raising this one from the dead. I got shortgamechef's video access thing for a few months in 2024. I watched his yip fix videos (the general gist is similar to the first video above, but with a lot more detail) and it made a lot of sense. I was working on it in my backyard off a mat for a while and my yippy thing was mostly gone. Aside from anything else, the flop shot using that technique is so easy and controllable. But I got onto a golf course for the first time of the year and found myself by the green on a downslope with the ball sitting down a little in the rough and I was, not to put too fine a point on it, f***ed. Shallow is all well and good from a good flat lie and I understand it, but you can't make that your be all and end all. I still don't know if it's a good idea to use steep all the time or just when you need to. I have a hard enough time with one technique, let alone too.  Just got a pitching skillest lesson with Erik and unless I misunderstood things some, he wants me a bit steeper. @iacas - where do you fall on the steep vs shallow argument and how do you vary it according to need?
