I quit back before Thanksgiving last year, and I'm really glad I did. I just decided I wasnt going to buy anymore. During those first few weeks, I'd bum one here and there from a couple guys at work, but would never buy a full pack. Fast forward to last weekend, and I hadnt had one at all since probably early December, but I was a little hammered at the bar at the Hard Rock, and these fat girls were smoking near me and my buddy. I had to have one. So of course, I turn the charm on, and end up getting one from one of them. I may as well not have. It just wasnt as good as I remembered. So yeah, I think I'm pretty much done for good.

As for the cravings on the course (and elsewhere sometimes), I will have a cigar, but I don't really inhale it. And of course, I dont have them nearly as often as I would a cigarette.

    • Day 203 3-8  Focus on getting wider in backswing and reconnecting arm in downswing. With wider backswing reconnecting arm wasn't happening as well. Made some good progress. Hit foam balls.
    • Day 523 - 2026-03-08 Got some swings in after a Starter Set of lessons with two new-ish golfers. Downswing work almost exclusively.
    • Lets see, Kapalua, and any other course played on Maui, Hualalai, Koolina and the course where the LPGA now plays the Lotte, Poipu, St Andrews, and Ballyliffen. I think that's it, never chased it but sure do enjoy playing Kapalua, Koolina and Hualalai. Will
    • Updated feels Backswing 1. Knees stay at the same depth 2. Shift right 3. Right now it's imagining the hand path going right and up by raising the right arm. I imagine the hands holding the club while it is pointed up and behind me at my right shoulder.  4. Torso (belly) and hips stay facing forward.  Downswing 1. Mostly just straightening in combination with arms down behind me. I know my knees are bent, but it doesn't feel like much. It doesn't feel explosive because I am not going from a deeper squat.  2. Hands to right pocket or right foot. It should feel like my go down as my shoulders stay up. Stay taller. I don't need to use the body to get the club down. 
    • It also counts in my heart! Thank you
