Well on a more humorous note my friend called today at lunch and after some light hearted picking at him yesterday while we were all watching football his wife went out and bought him a huge package of sharpies in a variety of colors and dropped it off to him at work this morning alone with a dozen balls. I think the problem is solved.

funny little story about playing the ball as it lies...last week i take a buddy of mine to my club for his 50th, he plays 3 or 4 rounds a year max but he is actually not terrible, he really should play more. so we are on the T with 2 other regulars of mine and my buddy wants to play me heads up in addition to the team, we haggle a bit since he doesn't have an index number and agree to a shot per hole - but not the par 3's. fair enough lets play.

first t box he is left in thick rough, i am down the middle - we get to his ball about 145 out, the lie is poor, there is a tree just in front of him that kind of overhangs, he has to get over the stream in front. it is not good obviously a punch out. He looks at me and says, "you play the ball down right"  i say "yes", he says "I don't" picks his ball up moves it 2 steps to the right, drops it down, rolls it over to make it pretty and says "what is the yardage again? "

LOL it was all i could not bust up laughing! we still had a great round with one of us following the rules!!

      I’m thinking maybe Jason Day read my post. He’s sitting a -3 two off Rory and Burns.

      Is it only the weekend broadcasts that have a low commercial count?  I feel like it has been a long while since I last watched a Thursday of the Masters, so maybe my recollection is off.  I feel today has a lot more than four minutes per hour of commercials, and far fewer of the fun stories they tell during the Sunday broadcast.

      I mean, I do slide my hips like 7 inches towards the target before impact. PGA Tour average is like 3 inches. I’m not Scottie Scheffler who can get away with it. 🤣 He slides a ton.  For me, I have to feel like I basically just turn. Though, I’m probably over exaggerating a bit with that one video because I’m really trying to push off with the left leg which sends the hip backwards. Ideally, I would be able to get my weight over to the outside of my left foot at impact and into the finish. It’s probably OK that I can slide about 7 inches as long as it’s like only three by impact.

      Day 32 (9 Apr 26) - Grandson is on spring break- puts in to play 9 at our home course.  Used it to work on top of horizon target point for drives and approaches…i.e. pick landing zone (fairway, green) , an intermediate target point and finally what standout feature do I want to hit “over” on the horizon (tall pine, home top, flag pole).    Better l-r dispersion w/5 of 7 drives in the short grass.  Nice little addition to the pre-shot routine.

      I managed to get the full afternoon to watch (Pacific time, so the ESPN broadcast began at noon).  I just saw the first shot I feel like commenting on:  Adam Scott's tee shot on #16 was really good, especially after having what might be the worst kind of Maltese Falcon on #15.    I didn't used to like him, but the past few years he's grown on me quite a bit.
