Uhhhh… that's funny. I didn't even recognize that. I didn't really look… but sheesh. Now I feel dumb. :-)

But yeah, looking at it again now, oh yeah.

I think it was the first morning, yeah.

It's definitely the first morning. I have a similar picture of the fog rising over the lake there on my phone, but that picture of yours was much better. (Also, the link I sent was a TST link, from your picture album of the Newport Cup, so I'm surprised you didn't realize it)

I was in "get things done" mode. I don't even really think I stopped and looked at the picture.

Arrrrgh, I had two pieces reversed and just partially "in place" for a minute or more as I answered a couple emails before I realized the timer didn't stop. Reversed them and got this! I thought I was close to 10 minutes again, but no. . .

I'm using a size scaling strategy so the puzzle starts off with the pieces spread out over a larger area to make it easier to move around initially.

Redid it without interruptions and made the same mistake as last time, but this time put the pieces in within a couple seconds.

Finally broke 10 minutes, but unfortunately the second time around. About the same as the last time though. :-P

I'll try to break 10 minutes on the next puzzle.

Looks like the start of a great day at the course. I love those slightly chill mornings with lake fog.

I sucked. 8:34. I should not watch the Pens game while doing puzzles. ;-)

Don't feel bad, I was concentrating on this one and still managed 8:03. :-P  (Karma for teasing @Club Rat I spose)

OMG, tried to do it with my 6S phone, and the stopwatch did stop after the picture appeared. Anyway, other than the fact that the pieces are microscopic and I had to zoom out and fumble a lot yet I still broke 12 minutes!

I think an iPad Pro things would go a lot faster. Using a mouse with a PC really sucks because even with the steep learning curve using an IPhone 6S it was way faster. So, from view on I’m going to use my new toy! Looking forward to faster times assuming my son doesn’t take my pro :-P

Just used my iPad mini and glided through 8:35, I’m charging the iPad Pro. My son will likely take it to school for the week, but I’ll have to try it next weekend.

You're also, I think, doing the same puzzle, and know more each time where the pieces go. No?

      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.
