I'll stay out of the political commentary as I am a Canadian, and keep my comments golf related so...100 rounds of golf over four years???? What's the point of being rich and having a powerful job if you're gonna get gypped like that on Golf. Crap, I probably played more rounds that that and I'm piss poor broke LOL.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

Hmmm...I wondered what happened.... I guess I really don't care and if my comment spurs a few people to open their eyes and realize that the current government now operates on a ruse to look like they care about crucial issues while removing freedoms and creating dependence on a handful of elitists that think they are smarter that everyone else and think they know what "we" need...

I swear I hate nothing more that to hear a republican and democrat argue. People need to be in power, not bought and paid for politicians.

The President took a weekend and played golf during a week when Congress decided it was a good time to go home and raise more money for their next elections. Because, you know, priorities.

Get over it.

I am a conservative.  I will not make a political post...I don't even know what it means to lose skins on this site.

I will say this: golf is a place to set aside our outside quarrels and disagreements.  In the world of golf, we should needle the bad shots, compliment the good shots, and stomp any cheaters.  We SHAKE HANDS at the end of the match and show respect.  Now, that last sentence is DEFINITELY NOT GEARED TOWARDS POLITICS.

Just my thoughts,

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By WillieT ·

      26 Nov 24 -  It was not a record breaking round by any means, but rather a simple walking of the back nine today playing TBWB (two ball-worse ball) where the challenge is to play the worse of the two shots played - could be an errant drive from the woods, a tree knocked ball that is 100 yds farther back down the fairway, a nGIR ball as opposed to a GIR….the goal today was to stay no worse than bogie thru nine.  Managed to achieve that goal - bogied 7 holes with one dbl and one par to counter the dbl.  It’s about staying focused and not letting a bad shot or lie derail, but rather be an opportunity.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 208 (26 Nov 24)- Opted to walk 9 today (was the back nine as they had a huge group going off the front) but instead of it being persimmons and blades, I had the regular gamers but made it a TBWB (two ball-worst ball) round.  This really challenges on several fronts - ball striking to be as consistent as possible, course management from non-optimal lies and keeping your head in it as it can be depressing to nail a shot on line-on target and the second rattles the trees right and it’s over 50 yards back and that’s the one you have to play.  The goal was to be no worse than bogie overall (+9).  Finished the round exactly on the number with some solid recoveries, no penalty strokes and only one 3-putt.
