Me too!!  I know of a couple of total clowns who went out there yesterday and just :poo:  the bed all over the back 9!  I definitely don't want to be like them. :beer:

I was only 6 over on the back. Not horrible... And I had 2 birds and a par so I would have helped my team... Plus the strokes I would get... Def gonna do better this Sunday!

I'm still waiting to hear back from carrx. I should know tomorrow if he's coming or not and at that time I'll update the groupings. It looks that we will have at least one group that goes out as a threesome and there might be a second as well. For those groups, they will play to their full course handicaps instead of 80% but obviously will not have a throw out score on each hole. I think that we are just going to stick with the 6/1 indexes unless everybody wants to get me the new ones... I know for my team it would balance out because even though Golfingdad's has dropped mine has risen.

If carrx does make it, we'd be one short of 20 players so if anybody knows anybody that wants to go let me know asap so I can move the groupings around. However, if we can't get back up to 20, that's no big deal either.

Mine is up to 12.9.  However I suggest we keep it at 6/1 to save the trouble of trying to get everybody's updated handicap the day before the event.

Guys, have fun. I'll be thinking of you, especially when the Tax Commission in a neighboring State changed the terms of our agreement so I don't have to show up. I coulda' been wich' ya. I coulda' been a contender ... not.

Enjoy! Take pics.

Mike & Brandon,

I'll probably try to join you for breakfast, rather than fumble around with my stove at 5am. If you don't mind, can you confirm where you guys are going?

I am not familiar with the exact area, But there is a place listed in this website in San Clemente open at 6:30am 7 days. http://www.breakfastorangecounty.com/ However, my son and I will probably pick up the breakfast hamburger at Carl's Junior on the way down. It's hard to wake him up this early on Sundays. Look forward to seeing you at the course. Go E team, at least we are another vowel team.

Colin, I think this is where they're going.

Actually, Mike can't make it, so he is just meeting us up at the course.  I've tried calling that place to see what time they open but kept getting a busy signal or something.  Weird.

So I may go by there around 6:30 and if they aren't open I'm going to IHOP, which appears to be closer to the course.  Big C, if you want to meet up you'd have to PM me so we can exchange numbers or something, cause this is kinda touch-and-go for me.

I went by that place.  It's open at 6:00, but looks pretty funky.  I was parked directly in front of it and had no idea where it was til I got out and started looking around.

Yeah sorry, figured I should get there early to check in and get the score cards together.  Also it's an hour drive for me.

It'd be shorter if you took the 5 to the 405, get off at ... that's all I got. It's late.

I should be there around 6:45 - 7:00 so I can help with that.

Spoke with carrx and he won't be able to make it... Here are the revised groupings.

Since bmartin461's index is 17.6 I decided to switch him and mdl so that entire groups are playing from the same tees and not having to stop more than once. I know Brad said that he would be good playing from the Blues but I think this way will make it a bit easier. Also, as I said earlier, the two threesomes will get 100% of their course handicap and have no throwout score where as the foursomes will have to play to 80% of their course handicaps and will take the best 3 of 4 on every hole.

    • Attempting to lift. Any better?  
    • Day 82: mirror work again tonight. Working on the same shoulder down and roll and twist stuff. Going on vacation tomorrow and putting the clubs down, so new streak starts in about 10 days!
    • Day 44, June 17.  Today was some preliminary stretching, exploring what I'll want to set up as a regular routine (both while on vacation without clubs and when I'm back) (aside: this is part of an upcoming goal to stretch daily in a meaningful way, but I don't plan to count it as practice on days that I can meaningfully practice with a club)
    • Having a rough week. Went to the Dr. because I was really weak and could hardly swing my driver.  I take Propranolol 20 mg tablets twice a day. Seems like the Propranolol was driving my pulse down (low 50's).  So we cut the dosage in half and I started taking my blood pressure. It was a little high but pulse came up.   Then yesterday I raised it to 15 mg tab by taking it 3 times a day. Blood pressure 127 / 77 Pulse 75.  Heading out tomorrow morning for 18 holes.    I have my driver set at 10.5* but seem to have my swing speed to low and I can't get the lift on the ball I need.  I have not played this week in hopes I will have the strength to raise my swing speed. I may have to raise my loft to 12* . (I will take my driver wrench) tomorrow. (This Parkinson's is a pain in the butt.)  Will give you a report when I get back.    Retired Old Man, Terry
    • You still got to lift your arms. You basically just roll your wrist over in the 1st half of the backswing.
