I've been at 10.8 for a while this year, according to "SHOTLY Executive Caddy".

On a side note, I may need to go buy a flat-bill in case I'm teamed up with Slice. The Flat Bill Bombers... custom, neon-orange team polos to match?

I also intend to send Erik home with a Browns ball marker. It's two-sided. One side features a dog growling. The other side features the dog with a leg up and a yellow towel on the ground...

If you send it home with me it's going in the recycling bin when I get home. :)

lol at the flat bills. I bought that hat as a joke, and it's stuck now. Haha.

I'm still not 100% if I'll make it, but I'm gonna try my best. Need to sandbag you MFers...I only pretended to be terrible at golf around Spyder and Iacas to set up my master plan...

UPDATE: I will be appearing in my Rickie Fowler orange, for the entire day. Tell Fox Meadow to prepare, because I'm about to excavate their fairways.

If I recall correctly, you're the one who hit your first tee shot way OB.

Yeah, but I straightened that right out to the usual 270+ fairway splitters

That's good. Orange goes well with blue, as in the color of your balls for standing up your girl.

But that's the right move. Bros before… the womenfolk.

Haha. Hey, at least he can still say "This is what I'm doing!" still. Us married... um, manfolk, have to schedule in advance. I basically said "I'm playing golf on August 3rd and probably won't be home for 5-6 hours!" and ended with "okay, sweetheart?".

No blue balls needed. I know how to work the system.

We still have travel plans, we're just postponing them until we have time to plan something.

Did I mention this was a "work" outing? lol

Very nicely played haha. I've used that one. It's a 100% success rate, so I use that power sparingly.

Well, I played it even nicer...told her I'd blow it off knowing full well she'd tell me not too.

Could have backfired, but didn't.

I don't mind looking stupid.

I play match play, stroke play, and scrambles. That's it. Anything else, and I'm lost.

5-6 hours? Dude you're gonna be gone all day. Stuff starts at 9am. Golf ends around 5 or so. Then there's dinner. :)

    • Day 175: 6/15/24 Putting practice through gates, and some chipping indoors.
    • Yeah, watched Geoff Ogilvy's bit on Fried Egg about his conversation with some bogey golfer finding #2 most fun to play and the irony in it being so.  Makes sense.
    • So, I think the idea behind it is that the ball is not perfectly smooth (obviously). So, on shorter putts, it is better to hit that point on the ball because it gets the ball into a better roll. You are not compressing the ball with a short putt, so it would act more similar to if you were hitting let's say a 100 sided dice. On longer putts, you might be compression the ball so more of the ball impacts the club face and then that single point doesn't matter.  It might be something he made up, could be a confidence thing, could be a legit thing. Maybe it matters more with how good the greens they putt on.  Also, we are talking about a single point here, and the putter face angle, path, ect.. will change a bit on each putt. So, it isn't like you are hitting that spot exactly in the same way.  Not sure it is worth the effort with so many variables in play. 
    • Looking at the aerial, there is very few holes were short is bad. You can always putt from off the green, so it makes the short game easier. I can see where the big number is out more often. It's not really a course where you can easily go low at either. The sand down there is super easy to play out of.
    • Yeah, even Jamie doesn't really push (forward) with the right leg here, so I bumped on his use of that phrase/term early as well. They get away from it, though, and when they show the movements it's more obvious that's not what he's talking about. I sometimes wish there was a better term because, as you note, it often leads to people trying to actually "push" with their right leg.
