I've always got my Aimchart in a scorecard holder.  And a ball line drawing thingamiggy.

That's 2 on Aimpoint. I guess I better figure out what that is...

That's a cool coin?  How much is that worth!?  More than the 60's or 70's sand wedge I bet?

I also use Golfshot GPS for distances and my grandfathers sandwedge from the 60 or 70's.  The sandwedge is so worn down that the toe is rounded and the groves are barely there.  I am still able to hit it out of the trap well though, so I continue to use it.

the nylon bristles are enough to clean the club faces.  I never use the metal side so as not to take the chance of scraping off the chrome finish of my irons.  I do use it if I see a rust spot, though.

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

I routinely carry the following:

  • One long & one short Tee
  • Divott tool (either a switchblade or a lightweight aluminum)
  • Tiny brush for my irons(it's the size of a quarter)
  • Blue & White Poker chip ball mark for long putts
  • Hat clip U of KY ball mark fpr short putts
  • Chapstick
  • iGolf Neo+ GPS on my hip (fits perfect in a small cell phone case)
  • small towel tucked under my belt on my right hip

I feel out of kilter if i don't have them all.....

After thinking about it my must have accessories are my golf clothes. The comfort, the performance of the fabric, the light weight shoes. In the summer I'm cool and I move without restriction. In the winter the gear is warm and light weight.

I really like the wired one for wedges - in particular after hitting out of a bunker.  Just does a great job of removing the sand/dirt that gets deep into the grooves.  But I have a combo pocket brush - which also has the nylon plastic retractable side for my fairway woods and hybrids that I don't want to worry about scratching.

Note, I use the wired side to clean my MP-59 irons with no issue (chrome finish).  The chrome isn't going to come off from a wired brush - unless you are using it wrong.  Simply get a little water/spit and it helps lubricate the surface which will eliminate any issues of causing unnecessary abrasion.

Yeah man I love summer golf clothes! A new 3 pack of wife beaters and a fresh cut pair of jean shorts feel great!

That's cool...... I used an old Moran silver dollar as a ball marker for years.  I still have it in my bag but haven't used it as a marker for years......it was retired for the magnetic Ohio State marker several years ago.   I'd have to look to be sure, but I think mine is 1890.

    • Hitting some good shots on my golf trip. It's good I can tell when I hit better shots the way I want to swing the ball versus when I use an older swing. Shockingly, the short game has been at worst, not harmful to my game. I am using similar feels to the full swing, in that I try to get my hands down. I've been nipping the ball clean off the turf. 
    • I was laid off two months ago. Good severance, a 90 day layoff announcement regulation the company wanted to avoid so technically I'm still on the payroll for a few weeks, and a bunch of banked PTO, so I'm in a great spot and working on a startup idea I've been batting around with my brother for a while. That means I've got time to get to the gym! I'm at like 60-75 minutes 5x a week of strength training, and either a run or a bunch of time playing soccer or tennis with my daughter on the weekends. Stronger than I've been in forever. Up ~5 pounds of (noticeable!) muscle!
    • Do you have examples of exceptional scores versus their established handicap indexes?
    • Day 539, April 23, 2024 Mirror work once again. When I get back to swings, I'll just do it A. LOT.
    • A bit of background. The Southern California Golf Association (SCGA) runs an annual event known as "Team Play." It is a wildly popular match play competition where Men's Clubs across the region put together teams of 20+ golfers together to compete against other clubs in a 16 vs. 16 match. In any given year, approximately 80-100 clubs will participate. Each club is grouped into "pods" of 4, and will play 6 total matches - one home and one away match against the other 3 clubs. The winning club from each pod advances to the Team Play Playoffs - a single elimination format - until a winner is crowned.  Antelope Valley Country Club just advanced to the championship match for the 3rd consecutive year. They won the championship in both 2022 and 2023.  Based on my review of the match history from the past 3 years (linked below), they have won 21 consecutive team matches. Keep in mind, these are handicapped matches, so this is not just a case where a group of sticks bands together to dominate the poor amateurs other SoCal clubs. Even if these guys are grinders who never quit, play their best under pressure and routinely putt the lights out, the law of averages still say that a streak of that nature is mathematically impossible.  Is there any plausible explanation beyond institutionalized sandbagging throughout the club?
