You want answers?

I think I'm entitled to them.

You want answers???

I want the truth!!!

You can't handle the truth!!!  We live in a world that has walls and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns.  Who's gonna do it?  You?  You, Lt. Weinberg??  You weep for Santiago and you curse the Marines.  You have the luxury.  You have the luxury of not knowing what I know.  That Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives.  And my existence, while grotesque, and incomprehensible to you ... saves lives.  You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall, you NEED me on that wall.  We use words like honor, code, loyalty.  We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something.  You use them as a punchline.  I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it.  I would rather you just said thank you and went on your way.  Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and defend a post.  Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to!!

Did you order the code red?

I did the job that ...

DID YOU ORDER THE CODE RED???

YOU'RE GOD DAMN RIGHT I DID!!!!!

I'm gonna rip your eyes out and piss in your skull! You messed with the wrong Marine! (as he puts his disheveled jacket back in order in one neat snap) Was he in mortal danger? Is there any other kind? I strenuously object!

Dirty Harry's "A man's got to know his limitations" seems to go well with the game of golf.

    • You know what, I have thought about moving to Arizona a little bit, but I do love the winters here. It really is nice down here from like November thru March. And I totally would do a home setup thing, I really should, but my stupid tennis elbow is really so easily flared up. It's getting better every month with dry needling, but it's so annoying too. I do think I'm finally solving the root causes thru both the dry needle treatments and fixing this steepness/toe strike thing. The former actually does heal it and learning how to plane the club correctly reduces the trauma the elbow takes because of the increase in sweet spot hits. I really should just do a trip to Scottsdale though, I went there once many years ago and it was a beautiful place. Didn't play golf at the time so I really should go. I'd love to get away from the humidity too. And I know there are great mats out there, like at Golf Evolution for example I've been told. In my case, I will hit foam balls off a mat sometimes at home and that has some of the effects of actually hitting a ball while reducing the impact. And this is maybe a topic for another thread, but I've found just making air swings to be more beneficial to me than I originally thought -- that going really fast and not hitting a ball shows my flaws quite a bit too. I'll film myself just making fast air swings inside and trying to fix it. It's almost like speed training except if speed training included trying to make a really technically sound swing on top of it. Hopefully this comment isn't too much of a tangent, but It is the winter depression thread, so maybe tangents about what to do with oneself indoors with golf is okay. Appreciate it though, I really have thought about Arizona a couple times over the last year at least.
    • Day 23: chipped in the garage with foam balls. Focused on crisp contact. Did mostly lower chips but mixed in some higher ones. Slightly more open stance, plus ball more toward middle, plus higher handle led to the best results. Need to keep those 3 things in mind. 
    • Day 2: Worked on distance wedge swing feels. The feel for me is to keep the upper body down more while straightening the lead leg.
    • Day 18 (September 22).  I understand the two club drill better, and was alternating that and hitting a few smooth 6-iron shots;  indoors, off a mat, into the net.  I spent about 20 minutes on this thus far tonight.
    • I don't know your family or work situation, but have you considered relocating to Arizona?  I was out there the past month or so and played quite a few times;  it's hot, but not humid.   Or, if your house is sufficient size, consider setting up an indoor practice area, so at least when the weather or your schedule isn't cooperating, you can still hit a few. ... said Shindig, who has routinely disappeared for months, sometimes a year or more, at a time because of getting busy at work and just quietly sobs to himself as he walks past the room where his mat and net are during that time.  Dang, I need to not allow that to happen again.
