I received mine in the mail today.  Can't put it down.

Damn, I knew Erik's PURE grips retained tackiness for over a year, but I didn't realize it carried over to the books one reads.

Great book! I'm only 80 something pages in, but this is so good. I'm so happy for you guys, @iacas and @david_wedzik . I can already picture 100 years from now (medicine has impro

Jokes on all of us when we get the book and find out it's 200 pages worth of data on how much better golfers score when playing 15" holes ;-)

25 copies???? You have way more friends than I would ever want :)

I'm going to be fairly careful about who I give a copy to. I want the person to actually read the book. This day and age, that might take a while.

That's a good way of going about it.. It is not like you are in a rush to do it either.. This will always make a great gift for someone you know loves golf!

Why does that book look like it's only about 10 pages thick?

Mine is still wandering around in the heartland, I presume ... it still just says "Your item departed our WARRENDALE, PA 15095 sort facility on June 19, 2014 at 3:27 am. Information, if available, is updated periodically throughout the day. Please check again later."

It does look just like the cover. Golfingdad what do you think of the 2nd paragraph on page 35? Oh wait you don't have it yet. ha ha

It's the best paragraph in the history of books. Oops. Sorry. That was probably a bit insensitive to @golfingdad . =P

That's OK.  I'll be thoroughly consoled when I get my copies and open the book to find my name in them. :-P

No big deal ... he only got the cover! :-P   I'm secretly hoping that Newman is @jamo 's mailman and, therefore, I can get mine Tuesday, while his is in a storage locker somewhere, and I can tell him to "suck it!!!" :beer:

You are quoted in the book?

LOL, I hope not ... because the instructional value will drop dramatically. :-P (But I was promised a "thank you" in there somewhere with my early indiegogo order - along with several of the rest of you, of course. :beer: )

There is probably a section on what not to do, and your the prime example! :-D

Not really. You need to have examples of what NOT to do in an instructional book. =P

Nice, my copy is is town but USPS says it's still out for delivery. I have no idea what time the mail comes.

So, mine got delivered at 4:30 but I'm still at work (going on 11+ hours yay!) so haven't been able to hold it in my grubby hands yet. :(

Mine reached and left Jacksonville this afternoon - I would guess it gets here before the Tuesday estimate, but a lot would have to go right for me to get it tomorrow.

At least you can get your grubby hands on yours. I think I saw the mailman reading mine today.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Congrats! Day 551, May 6, 2024 Played 18 holes with @DrizZzY hitting irons only and playing the white tees. No really "bad" shots, and a few really, really good ones. Finished on nine (they send us off 10 in May) with… a 197-yard 5I uphill and an 84-yard sand wedge to three feet.

      @anaveragehacker, you’ve been ignorant this whole time and now you’re being disrespectful. Not a great combo. You asked what the rules were and we told you. You complained about them and we told you why they were the way they are. The “who is the committee?” Question has been answered a few times. Dave and I are Rules Officials and the other people replying know the rules far better than you, so the fact that we are all disagreeing with you should say something. this thread is going nowhere and your original question has been answered several times.

      What is this committee I keep hearing about? We’re a small league playing at a county course. And these are temporary issues that may be gone in a day or two. In any case, I wish more people agreed with me. It seems that trying to convince golfers to modernize rules is like trying to change the Bible. You guys are so serious it kind of proves my point. Other sports make adjustments for  field conditions etc during lower level play. This isn’t life and death here, it’s sport. No need to keep arguing. I have my opinion and you have yours.

      TST Explores the ShotScope H4 (Stats Tracking Device) and Pro LX Rangefinder

      By DeadMan ·

      Yeah, I agree that some of the charts are hard to make sense of. That short game chart is showing how often a short game shot ends up within a certain distance. The orange bar is all shots, the green bar is for shots within 25 yards, and the blue bar is for shots between 25 and 50 yards. I just play around with all of it and will figure it out. I would suggest just diving in and see what jumps out and work on that.
