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

As long as it's not Wayne... ugh

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.

    • Day 24: did a stack session. Worked a bit on downswing feels during breaks. 
    • Day 444 - 2025-12-18 Light day of hotel room work. GEARS Summit v2.0 today. Good day.
    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
