I usually get advertisements that have to do with what I have been searching for. We all do.  

But how in the Wide World of Sports did I get an ad for Shot Puts! 😛 I threw shot in High School a couple of times, but jeepers!

Maybe you searched out "putt shots" and forgot one of the "t's" on putt

So, how many "shot puts" did you all buy? The one I get is that hottie Russian babe who wants to be my caddy.

Cool. I did that in junior high along with the discus. I stopped growing in ninth grade so I did not get very far with that. I might still have the 8th and 9th grade discus records though. Not bad for a 5'-8" guy.

Maybe you guys were searching for Russian brides? Some of them have been known to throw the shot put.

Yeah, I've been doing shopping for the wife so now I get a ton of bra and underwear ads.  Pretty cool the way it works.

I get a lot of "Meet mature women" and "Russian singles online" from Google ads. Don't ask me how they figure out that's what I need.

      Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.

      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.
