Aimpoint express?

No. Look closer. It comes right after that. It appears that we need to assess a 1 stroke penalty.

Lazy rule breaker!  His cap is false.  Just look at his swing.  No way he can break 150!

Re-calibrate the radar gun officer - not an official round. Don't think even a round. Was by himself.... no?

Psst - don't tell him that I left the flag in the hole for my last putt on my last hole.  Don't want him to realize I wasn't actually playing golf. :8)

I noticed a striking similarity between some of our vloggers and Hollywood actors. To spice up your applications, you should get the real actors to sit in.

Some of those are clever and accurate.  Mine?  No way.  In fact, it's downright inconceivable!

I think, as of right now, I have only one choice. @DaveP043 and @NCGolfer didn't finish their VLogs. There's still until I choose tomorrow morning, though.

@mvmac has a few more choices.

We'll announce them tomorrow at some point here in this thread.

The named members will then get a different badge to replace their "candidate" badge.

Along with the first birdie, you have a great personality! It's going to be a tough call for Mike to choose the captain! I like @Pretzel a lot as well. . .

The other guys from the west are all really great guys too. It's going to be tough for Mike to cut some of those deserving to play in this cup!

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.

      I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on.

      I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.

      IMO-the only thing entertaining was the relay race. Everything else was excruciatingly boring...or just  stupid, like the 14-club thing. Watching guys blade wedges into the water over and over is not at all interesting.
