We watched Here Alone, I wish I had an extra set of hands so I could give that movie four thumbs down!

That's not our rating system here. So… that's a quadruple bogey? :-)

Watched "CHIPS" last night, almost Par.  If you can get through the first 15 minutes without turning it off, there are some pretty hilarious parts.  If you're expecting a Oscar worthy film, don't bother.  Plus any movie with Vincent D'Onofrio in it, is worth a watch.

Lol! I've shot worse....it had all the ingredients to be a very good movie but in my opinion never got there. Let's call it a hard earned double that we were happy wasn't worse.

Atomic Blonde - par on a short par 4 where you hit driver to 6 inches and 3 putted, so disappointing.

Inglorious Basterds - Birdie Throughly entertained with the movie.  

Final Girl - Almost a bogey, had some good parts, Abagail Breslin :dance:, too many unanswered questions to get a better score.

Dark Matter - ScyFy show, just started watching the series, good so far.  Wish they were still doing Firefly, but this is a pretty good so far.

May be a little off topic. But here it goes.

Growing up, I was a big fan of the TV western series The Rifleman.

I watched a few episodes the last few weeks.

And I tell ya. That series could use remastering.......it's looking a little rough.

In my bag Driver: Cleveland CG tour black Fairway Woods: Diablo Octane 3 wood; Diablo 5 wood Irons: Mizuno MP53 5-9 Hybrid: Cobra 3, 4 T-Rail Wedge: 46* Cleveland, 50* Cleveland, 54* Titleist, 60* Titleist Putter: Odyssey protype #6 Ball: Maxfli U4/U6... But I'm not really picky about the ball I use.

Been on a zombie movie kick. Although these weren't undead, more like the movie The Crazies.

watched Open Grave-Par

not bad, no serious blood and guts. But pretty suspenseful at times. I've seen worse movies.

I hope SHAUN OF THE DEAD and ZOMBIELAND were part of your zombiethon.  Birdie/eagle territory for both.

THE BIG SICK - birdie.  Atypical indie-ish romcom that uniquely delivered for the genre, some really funny stuff, and a great cast.

As I had already seen Zombieland and Shaun of the Deaf about 10 times each, I've been binging on zombie movies I've never seen. I'd give both Eagles. In fact my tagline is from Zombieland. Enjoy the Little Things.

Rewatched Minority Report, Gattaca, Children of Men in a theater, all eagles. Nice to see them as they were meant to be viewed, 35mm.

    • Going to give this a try for a while and see if it sticks.  Day 1 Today was some full practice: 30 minutes of range work focused on coordinating weight transfer based on Evolvr feedback 10 minutes putting speed control work 10 minutes chipping practice with random targets 5 minutes bump and run work with 7 iron
    • Day 23: 1/2/2025 Had a great range session today. It was downright frigid this morning at the range, but the overhead heater made it tolerable. I started off working on my PPJ swing thought. Some slower, swings, somewhat exaggerating the movements. Then I switched focus and just hit the 6-iron about a half dozen times without thinking. I filmed two of these swings to send to Yoda.  After that, I worked my way up and down the bag (random practice... yay.) Hitting one shot with each club aiming at a specific target. I tried to focus on where and not how. Over all, I was pretty impressed with my results.  If you categorize each shot as either good, bad or good enough. I would say nearly all of them were either in the good or good enough category. Again, yay.  I'm going to do some more mirror work tonight, looking at my videos I think I can still improve what I'm doing. But over all, I was really happy with today's range session. I feel like I've had a giant leap forward in my swing. We shall see if the progress can continue.  Yay. 
    • Day 169: did a stack session. Worked on the early backswing stuff with slow rehearsal swings during rest breaks as well.
    • I really think it's just to keep people from doing silly stuff like saying "Oh, yeah, that spike mark will be my ball marker." or "That slightly greener blade of grass." Then when they go to replace their ball they have literally no idea which spike mark or blade of grass.
