A buddy of mine and I are going to play a round tomorrow, and we have a 10am tee time. He wants to play nine, take a lunch break with each of us just bringing a sack lunch, and then play the back nine. So my question is...what would be a good sack lunch to take on with me? I don't want to eat rabbit food and feel hungry for the rest of the round, but I also don't want to get that heavy feeling for the final nine holes. Thoughts and advice? Thanks ahead of time.

Won't stopping to eat lunch throw things off? You'll invariably have to wave groups through... and then what - try to jump in between two groups?

For that reason I think you should take a lunch you can eat while you continue your round . A peanut butter sandwich or something.

I vote sandwich as well. They keep without a cooler, they've got some protein and carbs, you can eat it with just your hands, and you don't have to eat it all at once. Add an apple and a granola bar or two and that should hold you. Just do everything you can to not hold up play. If you can, keep the sack with you and eat in the cart between shots. If not, make sure to tell the groups behind you to play through.

I think his idea was to pull the cart off to the side and sit so groups could just play through and then pick our spot to get back on. Not sure how busy a course on the outskirts of Pittsburgh will be on a Monday morning. I dunno...I've only played 45 holes in my entire life and all have been in the afternoon, lol. The PB sandwich sounds like a good idea.

Really?

You're asking the internet what to have for lunch?

And the internet is answering?

Interesting.  I wonder too - how do any of us know what would work for him?  One person's heavy lunch is another man's snack.  And too, if he was playing my home course, they might never get back on for the back 9.  If it's me, I eat while I play rather than try to squeeze back in somewhere.

      Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.

      I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on.
