I watched Paul and Art play at a small bar in St Lou back in the late 70's …
With less than 75 people packed in a very small area, they preformed for a couple of hours.
Yes I'm older than Dirt and thank the good man above I'm still around to talk about it … :whistle:

It would be rather depressing if I wasn't ...

In the late 70s they were still a huge act. To see them in a small venue is a very special treat. Love their music and harmonies. When I was learning guitar, theirs were some songs I had to learn.

Good ol' Breck.  Ask your brother if he's ever been to the Gold Pan... used to be one of my hangouts.

Yesterday there was 1-1/2 hour frost delay at Green Valley Ranch GC near Denver International Airport.

Ugh!  It's that time of the year where you have to call in the morning to see if there is any frost delay.

Some courses in my area have their own apps. They will send out a push notification alerting you to a frost delay, and when they expect to open.

North wind at 25 with gusts to 45 mph. Cold front supposed to be through my area by 5 p.m., CST. Currently 57*.

Actually, if it wasn't for the wind, I would be playing.

So, watching "Charlie's Angels" and planning on tomorrow or Wednesday.

Same thing can happen in the Spring. Many years ago, my buddy made an early morning tee time in early Spring. The weather had been glorious, and was supposed to get close to 70 that day. But the overnight was crystal clear with a heavy frost. We sat around at the course waiting for the place to open for play. My buddy's next door neighbor was in our group, and he told him, "You know John, they allow you to play golf at noon as well!"

      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.
