Day 38 (25 Feb 26) - Played in the midweek shootout,  great day of dealing with the elements with solid winds from the south (riding them going out, fighting them coming in - 2club hurt fight).  Not a day to be shy about clubbing up and having confidence on slippery greens.

Day 65 - 2026-02-25

Still in cold and cough recovery but got outside for about 10 minutes at the net. Good to be out moving but diminishing returns on value as I'm lacking real feedback. Energy should return tomorrow.

GEARS Hybrid was set up, so I made some swings on it. 🙂 Backswing is good.

      What Are You Listening To?

      By DaveP043 · Posted

      Last night I got to see Keb Mo live again, this time in a fairly small hall (1600 seats.)  A great show, relaxed and homey feel, and probably the best sound mix I've ever heard. And for guitar-playing folks, there's a documentary of Danny Gatton showing on various PBS stations.  One of the least-famous but best players ever, here's the schedule, and a taste: Events - THE HUMBLER - Danny Gatton The PBS broadcasts have shown or are scheduled in the following states & territories: California, Colorado, District of Columbia, (Washington DC), Idaho, Indiana, Illinois, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri,

      It is a diminishing tournament which is a bummer. Most of the time it has to do with where they sit on the schedule but it not being one of the big ones makes it tough to get the big guys. But it is a chance for everyone else to make something happen, which is always fun to see who takes advantage.
