LOL!!!  Me too!  Looking at Google Maps, I think we're fairly safe.  No houses too terribly close.  Cars, OTOH, may be in trouble.  1 and 18 both appear to border Leucadia, which is a fairly busy road.  Good news is that hooks will be required on those holes to hit cars ... slices will be safe.  (Cept for @Lihu )

I tend to hook, so I'm good. :-$

My goal tomorrow is to not hit any houses or cars

Forget the houses and cars, I am more worried about hitting one of you all the way my game has been. :cry:

Great job team. I'm glad all those short missed putts didn't come back to haunt us today. I'm not sure who had the worst effort of the group. Between my two foot miss on hole 1 that almost didn't reach the cup and Pakoh's 2 footer for birdie on 15 that didn't even graze an edge, there was some stiff competition!

Hacker teeing it up on #2. 150 yard par 3. And, he stuck it to about 15-20'. :beer: Kaili on the same hole, probably with a pitching wedge. ;) Slight pull, looked like just a yard or two off the green. Nice ocean view looking west from the highest point on the course, the fairway of #7. Looking towards the 7th green from the same spot. (This hole had a TV on the tee so you could see whether or not the group ahead of you had cleared the fairway. Some cool beetles chowing down on some yummy cactus near the 14th tee.

( where we playing next?)

Set a record for GIR today - I hit 13!!!, and I also had 2 nGIR - but still managed to screw it all up.  Had 39 putts!!!!!!!!!!  And throw in 2 double bogeys caused by OB tee shots, and I somehow managed to shoot an 81.

My shot of the day was a 230 yd hybrid to about 12 feet on the third hole.  Just missed the eagle putt though.  That shot was outdone by (at least) two others though.  Colin had a 245 yard 3wood to about 3 feet on #11, which he tapped in for eagle.

And on 18, Barrett hit a mid or long iron of some kind - I'm going to guess a 6 iron from 190?? - to about 10" ... another eagle.

Some great shots today boys!!!

Early returns on next outing are that we should head back out to the Coachella Valley.

In for Coachella, tristanhilton85 this is your neck of the woods right?

All for this he always has a messed up drive.

I know.  Seriously though ... the swing looks really good in those pictures!  He's definitely on the right track.

    • Attempting to lift. Any better?  
    • Day 82: mirror work again tonight. Working on the same shoulder down and roll and twist stuff. Going on vacation tomorrow and putting the clubs down, so new streak starts in about 10 days!
    • Day 44, June 17.  Today was some preliminary stretching, exploring what I'll want to set up as a regular routine (both while on vacation without clubs and when I'm back) (aside: this is part of an upcoming goal to stretch daily in a meaningful way, but I don't plan to count it as practice on days that I can meaningfully practice with a club)
    • Having a rough week. Went to the Dr. because I was really weak and could hardly swing my driver.  I take Propranolol 20 mg tablets twice a day. Seems like the Propranolol was driving my pulse down (low 50's).  So we cut the dosage in half and I started taking my blood pressure. It was a little high but pulse came up.   Then yesterday I raised it to 15 mg tab by taking it 3 times a day. Blood pressure 127 / 77 Pulse 75.  Heading out tomorrow morning for 18 holes.    I have my driver set at 10.5* but seem to have my swing speed to low and I can't get the lift on the ball I need.  I have not played this week in hopes I will have the strength to raise my swing speed. I may have to raise my loft to 12* . (I will take my driver wrench) tomorrow. (This Parkinson's is a pain in the butt.)  Will give you a report when I get back.    Retired Old Man, Terry
    • You still got to lift your arms. You basically just roll your wrist over in the 1st half of the backswing.
