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.

Obviously the add algorithm know I’m interested in sand traps.  From this very page:

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 323 - Opposite of yesterday, focusing more on taking a full backswing than anything else.
    • Day 139: worked on putting for a while. Did the two cups drill for bead. 
    • It’s winter here and time hitting at my indoor place.  This year I bought and sold a few sets so I didn’t settle in on anything. For this coming season, starting now I have a choice to make.  What set would you guys use? 1.  Nike Vapor Pro irons - They are like new, hit them some last year before I had to demo other sets.  I love them, original grips, barely used so I’m almost not wanting to use them to keep their value up.  Standard LLL and standard grips. 2. Taylormade P7TW irons - Still in the box.  Got them over a year ago but had too much to hit, never used them.  Have used a set in the past and loved them.  Ended up with my own set custom fit to me -1/4”, 1 degree flat midsize grips.  These are probably not as valuable because they are still available and they are fit to me. I hate to put the Nikes away but it makes more sense to save them than the TW’s…. I dunno…. 
    • Day 215 (3 Dec 24) - Another very chilly day - opted to work on easy pitches in the backyard. Worked thru the irons and wedges - focused on foot position and tempo.
