Big hockey fan, and the Carolina Hurricanes. Used to go to some practices and game day skates, and Brett Hedican always skated by and waved to my son. Brett was #6, and the Canes won the Cup in 06.

Mine comes from a former baseball coach. He loved playing aggressively and gave me the best hitting instruction I've ever received:  "Hands high, let it fly."

My nickname, "Cannonball" is also from my HS Baseball Coach.  In one game, and while sliding into 2nd base on two occasions in a game, I broke a SS's leg and a 2B's arm.  So, Coach called me Cannonball.  I am still referred to in my hometown, which is a half hour away, as Cannonball. I use "Cannonball" on a lot of sites.

CoachB25 is what players called me.  and 25 was my uniform number when I coached baseball.

Coach (me) to player, "Hey, what percentage of putts left short never go in?"  Player, "Coach, 100% of putts left short never go in."  Coach (me), "Exactly."  Player, "Coach what percentage of putts that go long never go in."  LOL!

Mine is perfect for me, as it covers a lot. Aviation background, served as a cadet Sergeant in the Civil Air Patrol, the stealth fighters nickname is the nighthawk, and hwk was a part of the license plate of one of my favorite vehicles. Its a handle Ive used for a long time.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
