For the past 10 days I was in Texas with my wife.  A little business and a bit of visiting our families.  I played  a few courses in San Antonio and the Austin area.  I have always liked Cedar Creek because of its "blue collar" muni golf heritage, the elevation changes, the cost ($35 for 18 with a cart) and the overall ambiance. 

Here is a little something that some might find interesting, amusing or boring.  The one great attribute of this video is it is short.

That's a big wall !

I travel to San Antonio quite a bit. I often have a hard time finding a range, and so it's the first and only place I've ever used TopGolf.

How far is this place from downtown San Antonio?

I use old Taylor Made clubs from eBay and golf shops.

It is sort of north of the central city.  Near La Cantera resort, Sea World and/or Six Flags Fiesta amusement park.  Off the 1604 Loop.

I had a cousin who used to live in SA, we would play Pecan Valley every time I was there - nice track, too bad it closed.

Always had a blast in the Alamo city.

Players play, tough players win!

    • Day 16: range night! Worked on long game for about 40 minutes, with a good solid 20 minute focus on my priority piece. Things improving there. Bookended that with some wedge and driver work. Finished up with about 30 minutes of short game. Working on distance control and all types of shots and lies. Short game is probably as good as it has ever been. 
    • You should be able to install it yourself, honestly. You could easily blow it on and use some one-sided duct tape or something so it stays in place. That's what I've done with one of my grips.
    • Day 22 (12 July 26) - worked on putting tempo today using metronome for accurate tempo. 
    • Hi all, My Edel putter seems to have developed a rattle.  I don't think it's a big deal, as I mostly hear it when I'm tapping down ball marks on greens.  However, I am debating getting it fixed, especially as I intend to play a lot of golf in August and September, and to continue playing regularly after that of course too.  My issue is I think fixing it would entail the fixer (golf shop repair station?) removing the grip and, presumably, applying a new one.  My problem is two-fold.   First, I like the grip on it, although after eleven years, maybe it's worth replacing.   The bigger (second) issue is getting the grip.  I don't like the flat-fronted putter grips anymore.  I have the round one on my putter, and I suppose I could buy one from Edel's website, but would a golf shop install a grip I bought elsewhere and brought in?  Or could they order one if Edel is not a supplier of theirs?  I don't recall ever seeing any Edel products in a Roger Dunn or PGA Superstore, although the era when I would go to a store and browse has long since ended (for better or worse).  I'd also wonder what the timetable is, as I'm leaving for a seven week trip in under three weeks. Any suggestions on what to do would be very welcome, whether about the rattle or the grip, together or independently.  Thank you!
    • I'm glad to know that picking up grass and letting it go doesn't help.  It felt like it shouldn't, but I'm glad to hear there's a good reason why.  It makes sense that wind is different higher up than it is near the surface. For a while, I was in the habit of checking the prevailing wind direction before playing.  That helped if I wasn't sure.  However, I still am not really sure whether something is a 5% wind or a 10% wind (and, of course, I know that a "helping" wind helps about half as much as the same wind hurting).   One of these days, I'll learn how to figure out what to do differently if the prevailing wind is 10mph vs 20 mph.
