Lengthening days.  They're finally long enough I can leave work @ 4:45 and walk 4-5 holes.  But the big one:  come Sunday morning -- start of Daylight Savings!!  Then, at least 12-13 holes after work,

Eating hotpot. And Chinese New Year!

Oh, and outdoor ice skating. My son is learning this year so I go out with him when he practices, quality time well spent.

Hotpot

It's not just a wintertime food, but most people in my family don't want to have hot soupy deliciousness when the weather is warm. Weirdos.

I live mostly in the hills here in AZ, ~7400' ASL.  In my opinion late summer and early fall are the best times of year here.  Most the summer tourists are gone, weather is still warm (50s lows, 70s highs), monsoon is over and the course is drying & humidity is low, lots of sunshine, and fall colors are beginning to appear in the high country.  The only thing not to like is Winter isn't far away. 🙄

Driving with the family over to the Half Moon Bay Art and Pumpkin festival. On the way back stopping at Lemos farm and letting the kids pick out the biggest pumpkin they can carry and we decorate that night. That's our official start of the Holiday season. Along with Pumpkin Ale for the grownups. 🙂

It rains every day, it's ridiculously hot and humid, it's hurricane season.  There are no redeeming qualities to this time of the year in the Orlando area.  That said, we're roughly 30 - 45 days away from 5 months of amazingly perfect weather.

I miss this time of year in Colorado - fall weather and the changing of the season / fall colors.  My favorite time of the year there.

Cooler weather suits me just fine. Waking up to 70 degree days instead of 90-100s is kind of cool. Plenty of time now for some maintenance issues on our vehicles, and rv. 

I also get to play fantasy football, and bet on nfl games. I am in 4 leagues right now. 

Golf wise, for the next 3-4 months, I will be able to golf anytime of day I feel like. No high temp worries. There will also be a road trip or three some where. 

Just an easy time of year. 

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

Peppermint Mocha coffee.

Golf related... Being in the Northeast, getting to work on a couple things without worrying about playing and posting a score.  It's all just practice and reps now.

      Swing check. Cons: The countertop drill hasn't taken yet. Not crazy about A5 to A6 hand path. Pros: Decent BS width at A2 and right elbow at A4. All in all, not terrible but meh..

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 74 (14 Jul 25) - Late afternoon session w/9i, magnetic alignment stick, Divot board and hard foam balls.  Worked on getting the face square at setup and then returning to same through the swing.  The lines on the Divot Board served as referenced parallels for the alignment stick.  Did hit a few balls about 30 total - half with using the alighment stick on the club face and half without.  First time working with the magnetic alignment rod - really reveals when you have the face closed/open/etc.

      I mean, that is what I figure would be the case.  My mind is just trying to wrap around the idea that 22" left = feet aiming like 15 yards left visually. It's like in a CADD system, if the flag is the base point when you scale an image, it stays in the same spot as you get closer (scale up) or get further away (scale down).  I can image how if you have a 10-yard chip, it could look much more like your feet are aimed nearly 22" left of the flag.  Now I want to try to make some measurements and quantify this 🤣.  Yes, they do. Yea, that is true.

      Closer to like 22" than 36. Why wouldn't the target line (ball) be at the target (flag) with your feet parallel left of that? Perception messes with a lot of people. Almost all righties tend to aim to the right, because what feels parallel left — particularly given that your eyes are "between" the ball and your feet — feel like they're pointed MILES left even when they're square. Also, there's no rule that you have to be parallel left of the target line. I like to be slightly open at setup.

      Pitching

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Depends on the lie, pin location, green.  I would say most of my pitches are with my 60-degree.  Its probably like 90% 60-degree, 10% 56 degree.
