Not all of Canada is snow and igloos.

90% of Canadians live within 100 miles of the US/Canada border.

Vancouver and Victoria have very temperate climates.

Spring has been in full bloom for a month now ........ taken yesterday.

Now you are just rubbing it in. ;-)

I left for work at 5:30 this morning and it was 14.  I just got out and it felt like summer.  My car thermometer was reading 37.  I'd be playing in that if the course was open. :whistle:

Definitely know spring is here as they have started to hand rake the bunkers again. Very nice.

Pretty nice this morning.

Took this picture at my course yesterday (close to Toronto). These are wild. Can't tell you what they are though. Not much of a flower expert.

The world's largest golf tournament got underway once again yesterday, the Golf Association of Philadelphia's team matches. Association member clubs from the Jersey shore to the Poconos with multiple teams compete for three weeks in individual and better-ball matches. The top tier (Division AA) is the real prize, but over four thousand golfers get to play home and away against teams divided into four team sections (see attached link).

I play for my club's third team and usually play away, mainly for the opportunity to play different tracks, but I played at home yesterday and beat my opponent handily. We lost our better-ball as my partner was a virtual no-show. Had to still my tongue as he was probably the most negative person with whom I ever played a match, but I love the competition and had to let it go. Playing away next week with a different partner.

    • I think you're saying it's preposterous to think that the areas on this club are anything like what's shown here: 30mm toward the toe or heel loses only 5% distance? Highly, highly doubtful. So a guy who hits the ball there and normally hits the ball about 250… will hit it instead about 238. By missing the sweet spot by about 1.2 inches? Highly, highly doubtful. Heck, the high heel barely gets into the red, and orange is only "up to" 10%!
    • Day 151 1-11 flow work today. I've been doing all pause work, so Inwanted to get some rhythm going. Recorded.
    • a) No b) This MLR says: I doubt the MLR is going to affect their weekly league games, in other words.
    • So the question was posed today by some of my friends.  Is a pitch mark the same as a divot?  I thought NO, but they argued if your ball lands in another player's divot (made by club during a swing) this was the same as a pitch mark, i.e. the ball mark made when the ball lands  
    • Original definition use to or still is how far offline you hit it. It might be better to think of it as consistency in retaining favorable launch conditions to optimize distance.   That heat map showed a gigantic 0-3% loss in ball speed. That is absurd. The true 100% sweet spot is tiny for all clubs. Good luck telling the difference if the sweet spot is under 3% in a sizable area. Especially considering variation in launch angle, spin, and outdoor weather.
