I was out shoveling snow at 8 am this morning.   I guess outdoor golf is officially finished until spring!

They said only 10% chance of snow today. Yeah right.

Woke up to snow and my plans to play around today went out the window. Ugh.

Right now I am doing okay despite the 9-10 inches of snow we just received.  I played on Wednesday (12/7) and the warm glow of getting a round in prior to the hammer falling is still with me.  By next weekend, I suspect I will be down in the basement fiddling with the clubs and wondering whether we will have an early Spring.

We're getting a bit of melt-off today, and I'll wait to snowblow for the first time until about 4pm. ;-) So long as we can avoid having too big of a "bump" at the end of the driveway, I'm okay with that.

Forecast makes it looks like it will be a while before I get back out on an outdoor range or out playing. I can get through December okay usually, but I'll get antsy when it gets to January or February.

Ball-shriveling cold for the next two days does suck. Saturday's high is 47 but with rain in the forecast. It's going to take a monsoon to keep me inside.

Come on down to Orlando for 12/28. I can add a tee time or 2 to our little outing.

That's going to take a X-mas gift with a very, very high re-sell value to get that to happen.

Pretty looking course you guys are going to play.

It should be a lot of fun. Temps appear to be hanging around the 80 mark over the next few weeks. 

IMG_1209.JPGWife took this pic yesterday. Anyone that wants to come down and play on the 28th can let me know. I'm reserving tee times tomorrow.

      2026 U.S. Open

      By saevel25 · Posted

      The criticisms are starting already 🤣 U.S. Open pro criticizes Shinnecock green conditions: 'Bumpy' After playing his first practice round at the 2026 U.S. Open, Michael Kim offered a less-than-glowing review of Shinnecock's "bumpy" greens.   The sand, I don't care about that. If the greens didn't come back as well for latest aerification, that would be a bit of a blunder on Shinnecock I think.

      Andy Plummer on Abduction and Adduction

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Well, if your frame of reference spins twice during the swing, then Bryson's ab/adduction is more like 780 degrees so there! (Yes I'm being silly, but not sure it's any sillier than what your pal Andy is doing...)

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Update: Brandon Sorsby has decided to enter the NFL Supplemental Draft. He will not play for Texas Tech in the upcoming season.  From my perspective, I think he did the right thing. I hope he gets the correct help for his gambling addiction. I say the right thing, because I would be worried that the stress from all of this now and throughout the entire year would not be beneficial towards his mental health.  If an NFL team picks him up, then there really isn't any pressure for him to play immediately. He can work on himself and his game for the NFL.  From Texas Tech,  "Texas Tech will continue to provide the support and recovery resources Brendan requires on this journey. Furthermore, Texas Tech will not seek return of any amounts already paid to Brendan through his NIL agreements with the University," Campbell wrote. "We wish our best to Brendan, and we offer our prayers to him and his family as he chases his dreams at the next level. This has been an unbelievably painful experience for us all, but I know that his true, underlying character and lessons learned through this experience will ultimately bring him great success on the field of play and in life." Which, I also the right thing to do.
