I've been up since 7pm last night and now it's 1:42pm.

I work a 3rd shift job from 9pm-6am so that's part of my problem, but I just stay up, I do this almost every day and get somewhere around an average of  6 or 7 hours of sleep a day.  I used to only get 4 or 5 hours.. .so i'm getting better.

Drugs are bad. M'kay.
 
I change my swing every time I don't shoot par for the course.

Sometimes. No caffeine after about 9pm is a rule if I want to sleep before 1am. However, some nights I stay up late because it's the best time to be online - most everyone else is gone and you can get work done.

If I'm golfing the next day I get antsy

The only issue I have most nights is that it takes me at least an hour to fall asleep, once I'm asleep I am good till the morning and won't wake up again.

I usually go to bed around 12 or 1 and it usually takes me a while to fall asleep, but I usually have no problem getting a good 8 or 9 hours. Except when it's hot out and I have no air conditioning. I just can't sleep when it's hot. I do have to avoid caffeine after dinner as well, that stuff really gets to me. But I'm no where near insomnia.

Im guility of getting 4-6 hours of sleep during the week.  Its not so much that Im an insomniac, I just lose track of time and next thing I know its midnight.  If I actually make a point of going to bed at 9pm I can get to sleep, but it just never happens.

I HATE the heat when sleeping.

My girlfriend and I recently moved into an apartment that is hot in the winter...can't imagine how summer is going to go...probably gonna have to buy an air conditioner

      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.
