Don't know if it was accurate, but I saw a guy on the news specifically say that this is a "1000 year storm."

That is shocking to me since, as a civil engineer, I have never seen reference to such a thing.  Our worst case design storms are always 100 year.  I don't even think any of our reference materials go past 100 year storms.

I dont care how many years. I would like to see some rain out here.

You don't want this. At least 23 dead. many more with homes and businesses destroyed. #17 green with 18 tee and clubhouse in background

Top is the viaduct going under Rt 60 connecting #1 to #2 on the Greenbrier course. Next is the remnants of a cart path and the third shows the normal summer height of Summersville lake with it's current height.

Homes washed off foundations, infrastructure completely destroyed. The people who have homes that weren't destroyed have no utilities and it could be months before service is returned.

They just announced the tournament there was cancelled.  It's a shame, they could use the money now more than ever.  I hope the PGA Tour donates some money to the area.

The picture of Summersville Lake is insane.  The part of WV that I live in got hit hard, in that we got a ton of rain over a short period of time, but if you would have told me a few miles south they essentially got wiped out I wouldn't have believed it based on what hit us.  It's amazing how different a few miles can make things.  I'm able to go out and play my local course (albeit with 2 holes closed and another getting a temporary lake), but the damage at the Greenbriar is just brutal.

      Can Somebody Explain to Me Why Lie Angle Balanced Putters Are Important?

      By Daz_96 ·

      The hype with the LAB Putters is something ive kept a keen eye on but i havent actually tried one... yet!! I use a SeeMore PCB and have done for around 8 years now and it was a gamechanger for me. It was the first time i had been fitted for a putter and from then ive totally bought into the fact that the technology in the putters makes a massive difference The only issue i have with LAB was that i did quiz them on Instagram what the difference between my PCB and a LAB Putter would be as the PCB from what i can find is just as balanced as the LAB Putters, however LAB couldnt tell me what the difference was and just said they didnt beleive in SeeMore Technology, but i wanted to know 'Why'!!  So yeah, the tech im sure works and think if anyone hasnt gamed a putter like LAB or SeeMore where custom fitting is crucial, then you gotta give it a go!

      Day 335 - More putting work, with the focus on setup and hitting the sweet spot.

      Day 8: 12/17/2024 Okay I took my new PPJ swing thought to the range today. I wasn't sure I was quite ready to do so, but I'm glad I did.  When I got it right it was good... really good. When I got it wrong it was a major fail. I hit lots of really ugly ones. But I didn't let that deter me. I stayed committed and focused on the PPJ and I avoided any temptation to go back to what I was doing before just so that I could "look" better at the range. I'm pretty excited about what I saw when I got it right.  I hit the 6 iron mostly (nearly all block work today). I also hit about 6 balls each with the PW, 8I, 5W and Driver. Those had varying degrees of success. I did crack one drive that let me feel and see what the changes will look like once I get fully trained.  Anyway, I'm going to go back to the mirror work for a couple of more days before bringing it back to the range. I do feel like if I can get this right my swing will improve a lot. So I think its worth the effort. I liked the way it looked on GEARs when I get it right, and I like the results I got at the range when I got it right. Now the goal is to work towards getting it right more often.
