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

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By WillieT ·

      26 Nov 24 -  It was not a record breaking round by any means, but rather a simple walking of the back nine today playing TBWB (two ball-worse ball) where the challenge is to play the worse of the two shots played - could be an errant drive from the woods, a tree knocked ball that is 100 yds farther back down the fairway, a nGIR ball as opposed to a GIR….the goal today was to stay no worse than bogie thru nine.  Managed to achieve that goal - bogied 7 holes with one dbl and one par to counter the dbl.  It’s about staying focused and not letting a bad shot or lie derail, but rather be an opportunity.

      Day 208 (26 Nov 24)- Opted to walk 9 today (was the back nine as they had a huge group going off the front) but instead of it being persimmons and blades, I had the regular gamers but made it a TBWB (two ball-worst ball) round.  This really challenges on several fronts - ball striking to be as consistent as possible, course management from non-optimal lies and keeping your head in it as it can be depressing to nail a shot on line-on target and the second rattles the trees right and it’s over 50 yards back and that’s the one you have to play.  The goal was to be no worse than bogie overall (+9).  Finished the round exactly on the number with some solid recoveries, no penalty strokes and only one 3-putt.
