damn near had a dear golf buddy die over this Winter. Artery bloackages requiring stents. He's on the mend and doing well now. Reminded me of how much I love playing golf with him, and his Son, and how much I love him!

Glad he is thru it...played with my dad for 35 years, and my wife’s dad for 20 years...carry one of their wedges in my bag every time I play (Hogan grind for pop, Wilson R91 for pop in law)...Im a muni player and dont care about the 14 club limit - I get a few shots in every round with these old duffers clubs to honor them, since they have both been gone a while now...

I love how often it reminds why I like fly fishing so much.

Good one! When my timing is on I can fly cast like nobody's business! When it's off, I can look like I've never cast a fly rod in my life! Golf is very similar.

Love: allows me to forget everything else in the world when I am on the course.

Hate: Not knowing which game will show up on any given day.

    • Day 549, May 4, 2024 After lessons and working with Natalie, hit some balls for awhile. Just backswing stuff. Forgot about the slightly shorter stuff, though I'm sure it was as they were only about 75% speed with brief pauses.
    • Not a coach, but this looks pretty solid to me! PGA TOUR (@pgatour) • Instagram reel 30K likes, 63 comments - pgatour on May 4, 2024: "Come for 16-year-old @kris.kim59’s near ace … Stay...  
    • Best drive I've ever hit: I will not be answering any questions about the rest of the hole. Or the round, for that matter.
    • I tried hybrids way back when TaylorMade introduced the copper orange Firesole Rescue, the clubhead having been made of titanium which was still relatively new even in drivers back then. I couldn't hit it well at all, and while the success of hybrids suggests that the modern ones must be quite good,  I'm perfectly happy with the 5, 7, and 9-woods.  Early ones of mine were Top Flite Intimidator 400s made by Spalding... and also made of titanium, now that I think of it.  I still have them in my basement. I do bag a driving iron, but it's a one-trick-pony that never sees fairway use.    
    • The last time I played Maxfli balls, Dunlop was still making them. How long ago was that? Mostly, though, I used to play Top Flites (original 336 dimple model) when Spalding was still making them. Now I play the Pro V1x. Last time that I ordered some, Titleist was still making them. Let's see how long that lasts.
