I only play nine holes every two weeks but do something golf related every single day. whether it's ball hunting, going to the range, watching golf on tv, or just swinging in the backyard. Not sure why but to me Golf is certainly addicting. My next nine is tomorrow but today? 1. Walked along the fence of the private club in my neighborhood to start the day. Watched a few players tee shots. Found 10 balls. ProV1, the number 1 found ball in golf. 2. Played golf games on my free Thinq app. 8 more days left and my Q handicap is hovering around 10. 3. Called my friend to talk about tomorrows round. 4. Swung some in the yard, some chipping 5. Watching golf on TV while posting here. 6. Checked out the scorecard for the nine I'm playing tomorrow. Even looked at the course on Google Earth. Probably play more ThinQ games later. All in between hours helping my honey make our juice for the week. Time to get professional help or typical for most golfers?

My son was up visiting this weekend, which usually means no golf, but I talked him into going to the range and giving it a try. I then "talked" him into playing the front 9 with me. I think he had a good time.

If I don't have an early morning range, or play session planned, it's a few swings with my driver, and my regular 2 mile, morning walk with the dogs.  I associate walking with my golf game to keep my legs in decent shape. 2 miles does not sound like much, but the course I use has flats, up, and down hill areas that pretty much work the muscles I need in golf. The cardio benefit is just an extra. Takes about 45 minutes. When the weather cools off, I will increase it to 4 miles. I am still waking up to 85+ degrees temps, and high humidity.

In My Bag:
A whole bunch of Tour Edge golf stuff...... :beer:

    • Rule 1.2b refers you to a section in the Committee Procedures (Section 5I) that helps explain what a Code of Conduct may (and may not) do.  Defining acceptable behavior (including smoking) and applying Stroke of DQ penalties are certainly within the Committee's authority. That Code of Conduct certainly should be available, either in written form or in a webpage accessible to all.  It may not show up on the "standard local rules" for an organization, the "hard card", as it sounds like its a policy of this particular golf course. Assuming that's the case it should show up on the Notice to Players for this particular event.  If you can't find it, ask someone, send an email, try to find out.   In summary, yes the Committee can DQ (or withdraw) a Player for smoking, even before or between rounds.  But its up to you to go from there, communication is the key here.

    • Hmm... I not sure I completely understand. If the course has a no smoking policy, then he shouldn't smoke at the course.  I'm assuming since you are aware of the policy, it must be written down somewhere.  As far as getting disqualified from the tournament, I would think that would be up to the committee. But it feels like it is within their power to disqualify, so why take the chance?
