Maybe it was outsourced to Venus due to cheaper labor costs.

The last time that happened to me, she was reported missing too long and the superintendent came out looking for her. She's gone now for fooling around and I feel terrible. I felt great then, but now it's bothering me.

I wouldn't let it bother you with any feelings of guilt unless she was a blood relative.

Totally off-topic --- But why did they stop selling Mars Bars here in the U.S.?

This is too funny. This same topic just came up at another golf site. We kinda determined that only some parts of the country still get Mars bars (or some parts just don't know that the wrapper changed

). I am boring with the snack, just Gatorade and trail mix or cashews. Funny snack story - playing in Myrtle Beach last year with the guys mentioned above and we are walking back to our carts and notice a squirrel, just off of the cart path, eating peanuts out of a sandwich bag... we were all cracking up until my friend realized it was his bag of nuts. The squirrel took them right out of the golf cart. Now that was funny.

Haha! Those little bastards always make off with the goods! Last year I was robbed for a 1/2 sandwich and an un-opened Reese's!!! We just saw 2 squirrels climb into the cart and snatch my stuff. My group and I were busting up laughing on the tee box as he scampered off into the trees.

Imagine my surprise to learn on a golf fourm about Mars bars disappearing from the American scene, at least under the name "Mars" bar. Now if I could just figure out what name PoDo golf balls are sold under and why Walgreen's doesn't sell them anymore.

Haha, right. Yeah, it's an in-between with me. I LOVE the hot dog at the turn but at the same time I notice it'll usually throw me off my game. I do good with a bottle of water and a couple snack bars. But damn....love those hot links...

I absolutely have to have a beer if I'm not playing well (which is often) just to calm me down. Other than that Gatorade/Poweraide for me

I come from a Ironman triathlon background and nutrition is the most important part of every race. I seem to have taken this mentality on to the golf course. I have lots of water and I take a water bottle I pre-mixed with a special electrolyte mix in it. For food i often use powerbars or the like, or for that qick hit of energy a gel like 'gu'. Like I said these are all triathlon food that provide a slow release of energy ofver a prolonged period.

I must admit I do love a beer at some stage during the round and nothing beats reliving the great shots over a couple of ales after the game.

I've inhaled the big bag of potato chips in a round before. That had to be two or three thousand calories. I prolly have you beat here.

End result, by the first of this year, I was fat as hell. Since then, I've forced myself to get over to the gym five times a week, and these days I'm watching what I eat.

Eating a hot dog while making the turn will mess with your game, for better or worse. Today, after eating one, I hooked the hell out of two shots on the 10th, out of bounds. But, last time I cranked a 300 yard drive down the middle.

    • For someone with a very consistent swing speed and ball strike, upgrades may improve performance. For everyday golfers, probably not. I'm a rather odd player. I usually get best performance from basic pro or tour heads, but with lighter stock shaft from the model's standard driver set up. (Yes, current EXS is an exception.) When I get a full driver fitting, I usually try a couple of modest upgrade  (not super magic) shafts. Most of the time upgrade gives a couple of extra yards, or 10 yards less. Remember this about stock shafts: They are matched to a particular driver model to fit the type of player likely to adopt that model. Also, most OEMs offer a variety of stock shafts in their drivers. Test for which one works best. And, the final decider...  
    • Uh, seeing you're having trouble with hit-and-miss performance from inherited clubs... Get Fitted! IF the 910H pair don't work, swap them out. Also, only two degrees separation in loft is not much. You might consider a 4W (much more reliable than a 3W) plus hybrid. This would give more distance separation than two Hs. For hybrid, get one you can hit... Maybe a more benevolent 4H. Quite often I try to brand match my bridge clubs (FWs and Hs), and my irons and wedges... but not always. Whatever works!
    • Like others have said, get fitted. Since 2011, I have played some combination of 4W + 7W. I had a Cobra 3H and 4H a couple of years back, and would swap out the 7W for a 3H in cold months (keep out of cold wind, and rough thinner for wayward drives.) The 7W matched up with yardage often with 3H; the current 4H goes almost as long as 7W, but has a lower trajectory. 4H also bumped out 4i in last bag redo; I learned to hit stinger with 4H so that's my driving iron on tight holes with shallow landing area. Again, a side-by-side test will tell you which way to go. If 5W or 3H is meh, keep the 7W. Also, are you looking to replace the 7W with a 5W or 3H, or add a second bridge club (5W or 3H) to your bag?
    • Makes sense and aligns with other literature. Static stretching, especially for longer durations, can impede performance in strength and power activities. I would not want to do like hamstring, quad, and calf stretches then go immediately sprint. To me that sounds like a terrible Idea. I would rather start off walking, then jogging, then running, then ramp up to sprinting.  To me, static stretching isn't even a warmup activity. I like the term warmup; you want to get some exertion going before the activity.      a { text-decoration: none; color: #464feb; } tr th, tr td { border: 1px solid #e6e6e6; } tr th { background-color: #f5f5f5; }
    • Going to Florida for the usual February golf trip, and with our current weather, that date won't get here soon enough. Heading to Augusta GA for the Tuesday Master's practice round, will definitely get some golf in while I'm in the area for a few days. Hope to be able to catch up with @coachjimsc if he's around. Then it's back to Scotland first of July.  Playing 7 new courses, can't wait for that.  Then somewhere after that is the Rhode Island CC Member-Guest and then my normal October golf trip to Myrtle Beach.
