Just popping to say 'Hello.' It's been a good year of growth for me on the golf course. Starting to regularly shoot in the 80's and starting to expect 1 birdie and a few pars a round. Even won the long drive comp in a tournament at Washington National! Woo hoo!\

Anywho... just saying hello

I am actually out in Kenmore... where do you play most of your rounds?

Willow's Run, Legion Memorial, Walter Hall and Nile are the usual haunts. I've actually never played Wayne. I hear it's pretty bad. :)

Wayne is not pretty bad... it's horrible.

I dig on Nile, though Ballinger is a great little 'practice round' course. I like the Seattle Muni's(Jackson, Jefferson, West Seattle) as well. Legion and Walter Hall are just a little to far north for me. If I am going up there I might as well just go all the way up to Kayak or Battle Creek.

Late in the season, but if there is a Saturday/Sunday outing I am always down to find new golfing people.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
