They have the high schools here regularly, problem is the course gets slowed way down cause the kids walk and this course is very hilly and there is a million and 1 places to lose a ball and some kids are real beginners and this course is not for beginners.

Oh, cool cool. Do you plan on doing anything for JGANC?

And I can related to losing the ball everywhere.. Caynon Oaks is like that, hella tough course, but I'm slowly mastering it.. slowly.. it gives me a challenge everyday.

Oh I don't know I'm just a member there, I would have to ask the head pro next time I see him, I'll se him this Friday and if I remember I'll ask, also it may be in NCGA's website for tournament locations, I know we had some qualifiers for NCGA amateur events.

Don't do NCGA, do JGANC. You should really bring it up. I'd bring my friend down and some other really good golfers


Just looked at JGANC they have some events at some very nice courses (Spyglass of course) and then other places that are very nice but not known nearly as much, and then they go to some real cow pastures but oh well it's for a good purpose, pine meadows and buchannan fields yuck. Keep practicing and do those tournaments as much as possible, tournament golf is your true measure.

Agreed, and thanks.

    • 12/24/2024 So Christmas Eve we hosted the family. But I still found some time before and some time after to get some solid mirror work in. Yay!
    • Day 85 - 2024-12-24 Practiced for 90 minutes (which probably means I hit about 60 golf balls). No launch monitor, but plenty of aids and feedback.
    • So got fitted in a 35" Odyssey Microhinge Double wide 'blade' yesterday at GG. Choice was between it, SQ to SQ, LAB DF3, Rose Axis and Mizuno Craft  (also a double wide). Apparently I'm pretty good a aiming right of the hole consistently regardless of putter type. But it all came down to distance control and the insert feel. We hit puts in the putting area for the fitting but then ended up on the aisle carpet to hit long 40ish feet putts. Which is where the Microhinge did the best for my stroke. The Mizuno was a close second. The DF3 and Axis weren't bad either but I just felt really confident over the Microhinge and slightly soft but firm contact resonated so well. FWIW, I wanted to like the lie-angle balanced putters more than I did and was prepared to spend a bit. I guess putting is the individualistic aspect of our game. Hopefully, I didn't leave anything on the table. Anyone who knows my putting knows I need all the help I can get.
    • The driver swing honestly feels good. Haven't played in a/the course for a bit but did pretty good at the sim place yesterday.  The idea has been to reduce twisting shaft instinctively at impact. For this have weakened left hand grip considerably. Pushed higher up in the hollow of the palm to take out index finger and thumb in pressure application which is a major are major contributors of shaft twisting at impact. On the flip side, right hand grip is way down in the lower part of the middle fingers. Not using index or thumb much at all. It also is designed to prevent getting underneath the shaft too much at impact. More of a float-loady  'paint the ball' feel through the ball. Overall address and neutral grip keeps both lead and trail sides on respective sides of the shaft instead of over or underneath the shaft. It seems it allows/promotes moving the shaft/club unit in unison with wrist/elbow/shoulder joints similar to an elephant swinging it's trunk. It does not feel like I am guiding the club path or trying to control club face at all. Fairly organic. Playing TPC Sawgrass in about a month. Will see how it all holds up. I hear its a good test.. heh.
