Wow, I think NASA landed Curiosity on Mars with a less complicated algorithm.

Aw, shucks, thanks!    If I had known that I was actually in the running for such an award, I would have gladly stepped aside.    I find that these awards really do change a person, and usually not for the better.     Pretty soon I'll be insisting that the studio sends a driver for me, demanding the finest table at any restaurant in town, having an entourage....you know, the usual things that accompany award winning success.    One day I'll have an "altercation" with one of the paparazzi that will find me standing on the hood of a police car in my underwear screaming "Get away from me, mother f______'s!!!    I'm a f_____ing Member of the Month on The Sand Trap!!!"     After a well-publicized court case, I'll then being taken away to rehab.

Alas, Jetfan, my friend, I suspect you would handle this fame far better than I shall.    You would likely find yourself in the running for the next Pope (hey, the last guy resigned, right?  There's a chance for you), while I on the other hand will slide rapidly down the Lindsey Lohan Walk of Fame and soon find myself sleeping on the sidewalk in a pool of my own urine.     Curses to all of you who voted reputation points!   You're the root of my downfall!!!

Nah, you're Colin Firth. Class all the way and everyone loves you!

I'm Adrien Brody. I've won it once, but its been a while since I've done anything worth talking about.

Meanwhile, we've got Golfingdad and Beachcomber as Tom Hanks and Jack Nicholson yucking it up with the rest of the Sandtrap's A-list, with Beach wearing sunglasses whenever using his computer. Both are mildly drunk at all times, bloated with their success, enjoying only the finest wines and cheeses. And just the other day, I can recall when they were starring in Splash and Mars Attacks . Oh how fame has changed them....

You and I will still do a good theatre production despite our cries from our agents that there's no money in it.

What I hope happens is by the time you get to 14, this community's membership count balloons to over 100,000, and suddenly parity plays a major role in this award. Then you'll trip over one of these on Thanksgiving and scrape your knee:

And suddenly, you start losing this award by only a skin or two every month to some new random guy. And you'll never win another one in April again because you can't hit a draw anymore, and everyone knows you can't win April without that shot shape!!!

    • My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.
    • Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.   
    • No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death. 
    • Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area? 
    • I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.
