Happy Birthday Thread!

That's a good idea.

What should the award look like? A calendar? A birthday cake with a lot of candles on it?

Birthday cake with one flagstick-looking candle that's got a flame? Something definitely with a birthday cake though, but then how to make it clear that it's shooting age, rather than just your birthday?

Happy birthday, @kolbe, @Mintzie, @OB1977, @Overworkedundergolfed, @windlaker!  Various generations of golfers represented from age 20 to 72, from those who entered their age. All of you have been on the site within the past couple years- hope all is well and that you're golfing- especially one of you who is apparently overworked.

Ah that's kind of a nifty idea.

I was messing around with Sam Snead's straw fedora last night, but couldn't find a simple enough version that I could easily turn into a graphic like the other awards. Snead supposedly shot his age like a billion times… give or take one or two million.

I'll mess around with that idea later.

Thanks Erik

6 Years old today on my second life. When you get a bone marrow transplant the nurses tell you that you now have a new birthday. I've gone with that and that's when my B'day is celebrated... My new Birthday Feb. 2, 2011

It is true though that I'm 59 (my old birthday was in December 1957).

The big 3-0, @onthehunt526! Happy Birthday. Ah, to be young again. (you're probably thinking the opposite)

Also, happy birthday to @BigRob, @andymowz, and @frankie, who haven't contributed much in discussions, but perhaps this is their big year.

Happy birthday to @Shark9. We don't know your age because you didn't specify the year, but happy B-Day.

Also, happy birthday to @dapper dan morby, @DrawBias, and @Par Fore.

    • Day 85 - Played 9. Driver was solid, approach shots were pushed, chipping/pitching was better, putting was rough. 
    • Day 514, March 28, 2024 Quick ten minutes while waiting for the wife to come home for our trip.
    • Day 262: did a stack session. Worked on rehearsal swings during rest breaks. 
    • It's been a little more than a year since I can last remember hitting golf balls and today I just got my second cortisone injection in 11 months. I thought maybe shortly after the first injection I was going to be able to start playing again with therapy but the pain while doing my backswing past halfway just didn't subside like just lifting my hands up in the air did. So today the Orthopedic surgeon put more in the backside of the shoulder than before to address the tendon more. I'm going to try therapy for another 3 months and if I  can't swing the club without pain then I think surgery is going to be my next option.
    • I was just down visiting family in southern California and we played a couple rounds of golf. I hit my ball into the deep rough near some tree's and my cousin's husband offered me his Sim 2 Rescue Hybrid to try out. And I felt the same way, wow! I loved it, it also had a Pure DTX grip on it which I loved. As soon as I got back home, I ended up buying two used Calloway Rogue X hybrids, 3 and 5. So far I've only tested them out at the range, but I love them. They're much more forgiving than irons for me.
