..after working like a mule this morning hand spreading 25 yds of mulch, I collected my co-worker and we hit the course...took off early to do so.

thought one: don't work like a mule before hitting the course... yer wore out by hole 10 when it's hot and humid.

meet a 3rd golfer there who was by far the best goilfer I've had the priveledge to play with. shot a -2 70 on a course he hasn't played "for years"..and the course had changed. to those of you who are at this level in your game, I applaud you. after seeing for the 1st time, 300+ yd drives... tight approach shots..and deadly putting... I was humbled. my co-worker is good friends with this guy, and is a 6 handicap. I was the..well... they had to gracioulsy wait for me, but did so with great attitudes...

thought 2: regardless of ones' level,true sportsmanship and tolerance for partners is a true blessing....

your eyes are always a good teacher, if you know what you're looking at, and to see a pure-striker at work, tends to lead to many visual "tips". I noticed that his drivers' face was slightly 'lofted" at address..ever so slightly..and that "click" is the sound you're supposed to hear from an irons on a par 3s, as well as with hybrids and mid-irons.....click... a sound thats' unforgettable...

thought 3: only tyhing that makes each shot sound like it's supposed to, is practice. period.... must hit range....

to all those that have this opportunity..the chance to play with MUCH..another world better, player, I say it can only make you a better player and a better golfer...over time. I know I'm gonna play with these guys as much as they'll have me....

hit 'em straight(er than me).....

Today I saw a guy on the range who is right handed, used a left handed club, addressed it backwards, spun around, and knocked it 300 yards. And man, the acoustics were flawless .
