In December, 2010, six years after launching The Sand Trap, TST moved from self-hosted site running vBulletin 4.0.5 to Huddler's platform.

Huddler provided a new look and feel, new forum software, and continued to develop the platform. Last year Huddler was bought by Wikia, and this year TST will be moving back off of Huddler and onto our own server running an independent forum platform (likely Invision Power's suite or Xenforo).

This change will occur sometime in the next few months. We're busiest during the "summer" months, of course, so we will seek to do it at a less busy time and/or to minimize downtime to as few days as possible.

There's much work to be done, now, but @mvmac and I are seeing this as a great opportunity to take more control of our advertising (which will allow us to expand Member Review programs and do other such things). It'll let us further customize the software as, though Huddler's software has been good, it's been limited in what we can customize because nearly the same instance has to power every other Huddler site as well).

We may also lose some things in the process, though we'll strive to keep everything that we've had in the past. We'll also gain some new things, too: user blogs, for example, and other cool goodies.

Stay tuned. @mvmac has a note for some of you as well about how you can help. We both love running TST and are excited for the future.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 51 (yesterday was 50, not 59 -- that was a typo).  I didn't have a ton of time today.  I hit a dozen balls with a 6-iron in my practice room.   Amazingly, after this I did the ShotScope analysis of yesterday's round;  my approach play was at the 5 hcp level.  That's pretty darn good, but unfortunately for my score, some of that came from hitting a few good recovery shots.  But I also hit some really good approach shots that weren't from trouble!

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By JetFan1983 · Posted

      Shot a 37 today! Palmer Course, PGA National. Really fun. 6/9 GIR, no lost balls. The double and the bogey were both three putts from like 35 feet or so.  The birdie at the last was really fun. I stood over that fifteen footer and thought wow I’m really about to make this, aren’t I? And I hearted it. Really fun. It’s like 9000 degrees outside but I battled through it well. Good times.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By bkuehn1952 · Posted

      I had been in a bit of a slump for the month of June. Handicap index has slowly risen, and there were few sub-80 scores. Today was a different story at Leslie Park GC. Lots of solid shots, GIR's, up & downs, for a 77 (7.8 differential). As with most rounds, there were a few loose shots and crappy putts, but it was a good day.
