Speaking of Winter Depression I just heard that they are cancelling the Masters again this year (2021).  Not Covid related but because there's a shortage of pimentos.

April Fools!!!

NOT. FUNNY. 😳

Yes, we got a dusting of snow last night, and it is biting cold, although I cannot remember a nicer end of winter into spring. I'll take this winter/spring any year it is given to me! Look at the beautiful weather coming up!!!!!!! Can't wait!

The Pirates are in their division.

Winter just won't go away!

Snowing today and expected snow all night.  I guess my Saturday morning tee time is a waste.

Snow last night.  Maybe my course will finally open towards the end of the week.  Haven't played since the end of September when snow cover started for the winter.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Visiting my gf in Chicago. It’s just another reminder how miserable you cold weather guys have it. Late/middle April and it’s 48* and raining?! Absolutely ridiculous. No sun. Dreary and gray. F*** seasons. This blows.

Today was supposed to be the first day of Men's League.

But no, instead we woke up to this... Men's League is postponed until next week.

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Have fun on the slides and the swings. The swings can help with your tempo.

I'm sure my kids will protest if I turn their swings into a golf training aid. 
You should have seen how mad they got when I started working on bunker shots out of their sandbox!

I'm just guessing here, but I bet you were not out there on a tour of the public grammar schools.

    • I get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.
    • 46 (9 over) Short game and putts were awful!
    • 46+40 for an 86. I just need to play 9 holes on the range before each round. 🤣🤣🤣
    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
