I really don't see any similarities between golf and life. For me, golf is just a game. I really enjoy playing,but I really don't see any higher value. Golf for me, is a diversion from life. I am 56 years old,and if I could play baseball or hockey as well as I could when

i was 18, I might not even play golf.I really don't see a spiritual aspect in golf as some people do. My results are usually fairly good, but I really care very little about my score. I just enjoy walking 18 with friends.

Consider:

Each hole is a new beginning.

Sometimes a perfect beginning ends up in trouble.

Sometimes a horrible beginning turns out really well.

Misfortune isn't always our fault but sometimes it is.

Miracles do happen.

Sometimes it rains on our parade.

Bad things can happen to good people.

At some moment we'll need a mulligan.

    • It's miles better, though.
    • Went up to Erie for a lesson. I still need to work on how I shift my weight into my right leg and turn into the right leg. I extend it too much and externally rotate it too much. That all causes me to over rotate the hips and cause weight shift issues in the downswing. I need to feel like my right leg gains flex (it doesn’t), and my knee cap faces forward. The right hip sinks back and right. I need a need a ton more internal rotation. I still have some right elbow issues in the backswing. The path is better, but too much right elbow bend. I need to maintain width in the right elbow and let my right shoulder retract more, let’s say at A3, which helps keep that right arm extended.
    • Day 130 12-20 Today was just swinging what i had and go from there. Did focus on getting to lead side. Recorded swings for lesson  and hit real balls. 
    • Day 1 - 2025-12-20 Starting a new streak, of at least 1. With rain dumping for the next week in the north bay area, I'll be a lot of outdoor net work and maybe some putting. About 10 minutes of 7 iron work, focused on the usuals: weight transfer, keeping hands behind me. I'll have more time in the coming days for video review and maybe some Hack Motion.
    • Day 40 (20 Dec 25) - got in a few reps with the 55° wedge - focused on low flighted spinners from about 10 yds in, then wrapped up the session with a few bump and runs chips with the 5i using a putting type stroke.
