Yesterday I got clobbered by an errant golf ball. Believe it came from an adjacent fairway. No one owned up to it. Hit me on the fly, on the side of my mouth, while standing on the green. 

Scored double bogies on the final two holes.

Just left my dentist. As soon as the swelling goes down, I will probably lose a couple teeth, and have repairs on a couple of more. Luckily my jaw is not broken. What really bumbs me is is that I am one of the few old dudes who still have most of my own teeth. 

Semi liguid diet for a while. 

I suppose when you play this game as much as I do, the law of averages says crap is going to happen. Yes, I kept the ball that hit me........lol

What kind of ball? ;-)  My luck it'd be a Pinnacle, or Ti-Tech.

Sorry to hear, though, but glad it wasn't worse.  Best wishes for a fast & low-pain recovery.

Yikes!  I wish you the best in your recovery.  Later this month it will have been a decade since I last got hit by a ball on the golf course (other than putting a foot down to stop a friend's bad chip from rolling into a hazard), although mine wasn't nearly as bad as yours.

Sorry to hear about that, good luck going forward.  I hope you won't feel the need to wear a hockey mask on the course when you get back to playing.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
