That is one scary post. It makes my eyes hurt just trying to read it.

You didn't actually read the whole thing?.............

I just read the whole thing. Felt like I was going in and out of a dream. The font seemed to change size few times.

I am going to have to go home and re-wet my contacts.

Edit:  Can't recollect a single word.

Keep the peddle to the meddle. Golfweek kant spel. OTH, peddle passes spell check, or maybe autocorrect was the culprit.

Little known fact:

Many people assume the phrase is "pedal to the metal" in reference to driving a race car fast, and that's actually incorrect.  It's actually "petal to the medal" referring to Jesse Owens' superstitious practice of placing a rose petal in his sock during each of his Gold Medal winning races at the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin.

Gold shoes? That is badass! Clearly a typo, but a funny one!

[quote name="saevel25" url="/t/59498/the-best-worst-spelling-and-grammar-errors-thread/1160_10#post_1149267"] I don't think it was a typo. I think he wears gold shoes :dance:   [/quote] [quote name="Ernest Jones" url="/t/59498/the-best-worst-spelling-and-grammar-errors-thread/1160_10#post_1149270"] Must be an Arab thing! :-$[/quote] HILARIOUS .. I should turn on the notifications so that I see this sort of thing.. Gold shoes must be expensive :)

Worked on my pitching this afternoon and almost sweated to death.

Just wanted to update how the pitching technique was working for me. It's getting much better. Primary reason is I am getting bored just pitching around the green so I am making up some games. This evening I tried to fly the ball into the hole. This had some interesting effects on my pitching. First I found I can have tremendous distance control when I am focusing on just hitting a 15.9 square inch circle.  I was a good 15 yards away from the pin and the balls were landing pin high majority of the time, with +/- 1 yard left or right of the pin. Second, it took my mind off technique and focus on target.

If you have a good practice green area, try this out.

Doesn't really fit, but @saevel25 , you ARE an engineer…

The hole is 4.25" in diameter, not 4.5. :)

10 popular grammar myths, http://finance.yahoo.com/news/10-popular-grammar-myths-debunked-141500488.html

These were debunked by a Harvard linguist. So, they must be true. ;)

It's probably been posted several times but something I hate SO MUCH is when people say "should of" instead of "should have." Saying "should of" instead of "should have" basically means you haven't read a real book since 2nd grade. It means your understanding of the language is based on what it sounds like and not what the actual words are, which you would have easily picked up on had you been reading.

This would have been funnier if you wrote 'would of' there at the end to see if anybody picked up on it. :-P

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
