Graeme is reading this thread and wondering what he got himself into.


Thinking the same thing... :-$

Luckily, it appears he has a good sense of humor.

Alright, here we go..... Wow, what a day!  I was so stoked for the day, that over the last couple of days I've had to remind myself that things like this seldom really live up to the hopes and

I just got a call from GolfNow.  I was their top booker in the Orlando area this past year (it helps to book for a small group of nuts just like us) and they asked me if, as a reward, I'd be available

Alright, sorry for the delay, my daughter's birthday was this past weekend and I was tied up.  I'll see if I can't fill in some of the fun stuff now...... Graeme was a lot of fun to play with.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

My wife and I were at a Christmas party last night in a downtown hotel.  I got an email from the woman coordinating the thing today but didn't notice it until we had left.  Turned out she was at the Golf Channel Christmas party in the room next to ours.  When I mentioned that we had just left there she said that if she had known, she'd have brought us around and introduced us to all the on-air talent and Nick Faldo.

Crap, that woulda been cool!  Plus, I'm SURE their party was better than the one we were at.

I figure I'll just tell him automatic 2-down presses and leave it at that.  That oughta keep him on his toes.....

When I mentioned that we had just left there she said that if she had known, she'd have brought us around and introduced us to all the on-air talent and Nick Faldo.

Someone already beat me to the punch line. I just wanted to point out that had you met Nick Faldo, I think you would have felt the same as me: that the guy is ****ing HUGE.

True. I saw Faldo at Bay Hill once and was surprised, he's a big boy.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day (2 May 24) - somehow I missed posting both Tues and Weds practice sessions - so the streak ends and a new one begins…. Focus today was on ball first contact using the Divot Board for reference.   Worked with 7i, 9i and GW hitting hard foam balls.  Started hap hazardly and then settled back into my pre-shot setup.  Much more consistent in the latter.

      My Favorite Putts

      By Clemsonfan ·

      August 2010 Woodfin Ridge 18th hole Playing in a large tournament with a slew of friends and the last day was two man best ball. The 18th, when it was bent grass, was very fast due to a steep slope on the right side. I had seen many people over the years putt off the green from above the hole. I hit a great drive and 3W to 30’ left of the hole. With everyone watching my partner hit it way too fast and never high enough and his ball rolled all the way to the bottom of the green.  I hit mine much higher and the ball came to rest about 20” above the hole. Then it slowly started trickling towards the hole for a walkoff eagle! Nobody said anything except my partner who was yelling pretty loudly. I looked at the crowd and told them it was okay to clap because it was a great putt, and they gave me a bunch of polite golf claps and brought me a beer!

      Day 127: 5/2/24 Stack Full Speed spectrum training session 6/24. Training speed was 5 mph higher than previous high, as was e-speed. Still not as high as I have done in previous programs, but just 1 mph lower. Battling through a neck issue, and possible trigger fingers. Happy with results.

      Day 49. Played 9 from tees a bit beyond my comfort zone and was humbled. Hit a couple good shots so will take that at least.
