Thanks, y'all.

I celebrated by… taking my daughter to Golden Corral (her choice) before taking her to the dermatologist for a wart removal on her left thumb knuckle.

He applied some clear liquid that he says will cause it to blister. If that doesn't get rid of it (it's pretty big), he'll cut it off next time. We'd already tried home remedies plus one freezing.

Happy Birthday! Sounds like an exciting day! Better than the two feet of snow I got!

Thank you...  Yeah, I hit 57 yesterday 4/10.  Or, as I joked to my wife yesterday:
Me: Wow, I'm 57? Hey, let's add the two numbers together.  5+7=12.  How about if I act like a 12 year old boy?
Wife (not missing a beat): You already do!

Gee, thanks, honey... Feel the love... LOL... :-D

Thanks!

God willing, I"ll now have more time on the course to improve my inadequate 15 handicap. :-P

Maybe the new driver will help my long game... assuming I learn to hit her! ;-)

    • Day 63 (12 May 26) - Nine hole session today with my friend Mike  - worked on approach distances to have good opportunities to set up for up and downs around the greens.  It made for a good time to discipline myself to not get greedy but rather steady. 
    • Knocked off #8 (a tough one to get) today with a mini driver, a chipped 9I, and about a 25-footer in the eight holes I played tonight.
    • You're right.  Side note, and funny story, the only time I can remember hitting a shot O.B. on that hole for the second shot, it was a topped shot where I started near the O.B. marker.  I wonder if I'm not getting as good a shot as I could because I'm nervous about O.B., but I'm not hesitating to hit a 4W if I get a good lie.  
    • Day 262 5-12 Got an early practice session in this morning. Arms off body was the main focus with getting chest through with speed, I did much better with wrist arching through the downswing.   
    • Yea, developing a proper shot zone for that approach should would be helpful. If you are bringing OB into play more than you like, then it is either needs to be an accepted reward for the risk. If you hit 10 shots from that tee ball landing area. If like 1 ball goes OB, that could be outlier shots you need to discard. If more than that is creeping in, then it is probably not the correct shot.  Maybe it needs to be more nuanced. Maybe you hit more shots OB from the left side of the hole than right due to shot shape. If you hit it left to right, maybe being on the left side makes you aim further right, bringing in OB right. It could be an aiming issue.
