a little friend I made one day while out playing.  He wasn't too scared of me and I was probably 2 feet away taking this picture.  He/she was a fat squirrel, too.  Winter must have been good to the squirrels this year!

My philosophy on golf "We're not doing rocket science, here."


Here's some pics from an Arizona golf trip (a friend shot these from his phone) WeKoPa Cholla [URL=http://thesandtrap.com/image/id/258035/width/640/height/478][IMG]http://thesandtrap.com/image/id/258035/width/640/height/478[/IMG][/URL] Dove Mountain Tortolita [URL=http://thesandtrap.com/image/id/258044/width/640/height/478][IMG]http://thesandtrap.com/image/id/258044/width/640/height/478[/IMG][/URL] Dove Mountain Saguaro [URL=http://thesandtrap.com/image/id/258045/width/640/height/478][IMG]http://thesandtrap.com/image/id/258045/width/640/height/478[/IMG][/URL] Dove Mountain Wild Burro [URL=http://thesandtrap.com/image/id/258046/width/640/height/478][IMG]http://thesandtrap.com/image/id/258046/width/640/height/478[/IMG][/URL]

1st Hole at The Island Golf Links outside of Dublin. Toughest course I've ever played. Exhausting.

IMG_0374.JPG

#13 at The Island. When I played it it was about 220 yards into the wind (and as you can see, all carry).

IMG_0378.JPG

#14 Apparently the narrowest fairway in Ireland.

IMG_0380.JPG

#18 Great finishing hole.

I'll say that The Island has gotta be one of the best links courses in the world. It's a shame that nobody's really heard of it. I highly recommend playing it, but like I said, it's absolutely exhausting.

My dad used to love that track. I still use a spring loaded divot tool from there.

"My ball is on top of a rock in the hazard, do I get some sort of relief?"

White Stone in Ft. Worth, TX

    • Day 203 (21 Nov 24) - Weekly nine hole round with my good friend.  Played it as a 7 club challenge (7w, 5h, 7i, 9i, GW, LW, putter).  As we were playing up a set of tees, no super loss of distance off the tee.  Had some good looks at birdie, failed to convert.  These sessions with fewer clubs really helps with course management.  
    • Tell me about it - shouldn’t have second guessed…
    • My wife is going to drag me to see Wicked.   She is very excited to see it.   We saw the musical while in Chicago and thought it was very good.  I'm not usually a fan of musicals but I'm looking forward to seeing this.   Gladiator 2 does look good.   I'm going to go back and watch the original Gladiator before going to the theater.
    • MSN Glover expressed his dissatisfaction with what he termed as 'cool kid meetings' between Jordan Spieth, Patrick Cantlay, Tiger Woods and other high-profile golfers. "I think it's terrible," he stated. "And then hiding behind pace of play, I think, challenges our intelligence. They think we're stupid.     "Don't cut fields because it's a pace of play issue. Tell us to play faster, or just say you're trying to appease six guys and make them happy so they don't go somewhere else and play golf." Fitzpatrick joined the conversation on X (formerly Twitter), with the 30-year-old echoing Glover's sentiments regarding the PGA Tour changes. "He's so right," Fitzpatrick posted. "Pathetic that pace of play is spoken about every year and nothing ever gets done."     I agree. Instead of  penalizing  players for  turtle  play they appease the  slow jerks  by  cutting the  fields. They will play even slower  knowing they will NEVER be  penalized.
    • I've been Playing Golf for: 3 years  My current handicap index or average score is: 1.5 My typical ball flight is: neutral /slight draw The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: hook   Looking for some advice please folks. Started golfing three years ago and got hooked. Had some early lessons and was a slicer etc.  I used to have a severe inside takeaway and through working hard to fix as ever (this game…) it’s now gone too far the other way where I take it back way outside.  i think it looks really bad and have gotten a lesson last year where we tried to competely reset the swing and it ruined things for months as I couldn’t get it to stick (my fault).    anyway do I need to fix this? I hit it reasonably solid but don’t know what else I’m looking at or need to clean up. All opinions welcomed!  Videos:
