For a Father's Day gift my wife got me grounds passes for the whole week of the PGA.  I've never been to a tour event before so I'm pretty excited to be attending a major!  Any tips?  I'll definitely be there Saturday and Sunday most of the day.  I'm thinking I'll checkout a couple hours of a practice round Monday through Weds. and then try to spend half a day on Thursday.  I won't actually be off from work (my job is kind of flexible, but I can't disappear - too much going on) but I'll be able to arrange my schedule to spend some time there during the week.

Any tips or suggestions are greatly appreciated!

In the bag:
Driver:  Burner 10.5* Stiff     ||    3 Wood:  Burner 13* Stiff     ||     Hybrids:  Slingshot 17*, 21*, 24* Utility

    • Day 12: stole about 10 minutes in the garage, doing my drill with foam balls. 
    • Day 116 12-6 Still working on getting to lead side. Tonight I also tried some skill work with clubface awareness.  Hit foam balls. 
    • To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
