Santa Anita at 9:53 Saturday morning is the current plan with @Chasing_Bogeys and me.

I asked the pro shop, and it seems like there’s more room too @Shindig?

The reservation is under @Chasing_Bogeys‘s name if anyone in So. Cal. Is interested?

I haven't cancelled the 6:52a @ DB yet either. So, if anyone in SoCal wants a DB tee time for a 3some you're welcome to take it.

I'm up for Saturday if you still have room.  Walking or riding?  I haven't played this course before.

Ok, I’ll modify our reservation.

I’m planning on pushing a cart?

Ok @Shindig, you’ve been added. Hope that’s okay @Chasing_Bogeys?

The more the merrier!

@ShindigI was planning to ride but if you want to walk I'll walk it as well. I haven't played SA before either, I'm sure @Lihu will be happy to point us in the right direction.

Walking is better on this course. They overcharge for carts.

Sure, I’ll point but that doesn’t mean you’ll want your ball to go where mine goes 🤪😂🤪

Too bad @tehuti hurt his shoulder, but there should be ample opportunities for us as a group to play together.

As always, we’re there to have fun!

Looks great, but my normal players club is only $65 with a free drink.

Hey all, I forgot this is Super Bowl weekend and we're in So. Cal.

All I can say is "Go Rams" or "Patriots" since my company headquarters is in the Boston Area. But I think I'd get skinned alive if the Rams won and I was cheering them on... :-D

Let's all plan for the 9th! Or whenever free...

@tehuti, @Shindig want to try for Diamond Bar this weekend?

@Chasing_Bogeys said he would be busy this weekend, but that doesn’t mean we can’t play ?

However, I think we should definitely plan for the 16th somewhere...

I probably can’t make this coming weekend, plus it is supposed to rain. The 16th-17th sounds good though.

Yeah, I just went to the range to work on my alignments and they were all closed. I was a little bit miffed, but then I realized what a total golf doofus I must be. 🤪😂🤪

My local range is a pond, so I’m guessing they are open as long as it’s not pouring down rain!

When ducks are foraging in what’s normally dry ground I suppose we should let the range people have a day off 🤪

Looks like they had the good sense to pull down the yardage signs @ SA.

    • Day 82: mirror work again tonight. Working on the same shoulder down and roll and twist stuff. Going on vacation tomorrow and putting the clubs down, so new streak starts in about 10 days!
    • Day 44, June 17.  Today was some preliminary stretching, exploring what I'll want to set up as a regular routine (both while on vacation without clubs and when I'm back) (aside: this is part of an upcoming goal to stretch daily in a meaningful way, but I don't plan to count it as practice on days that I can meaningfully practice with a club)
    • Having a rough week. Went to the Dr. because I was really weak and could hardly swing my driver.  I take Propranolol 20 mg tablets twice a day. Seems like the Propranolol was driving my pulse down (low 50's).  So we cut the dosage in half and I started taking my blood pressure. It was a little high but pulse came up.   Then yesterday I raised it to 15 mg tab by taking it 3 times a day. Blood pressure 127 / 77 Pulse 75.  Heading out tomorrow morning for 18 holes.    I have my driver set at 10.5* but seem to have my swing speed to low and I can't get the lift on the ball I need.  I have not played this week in hopes I will have the strength to raise my swing speed. I may have to raise my loft to 12* . (I will take my driver wrench) tomorrow. (This Parkinson's is a pain in the butt.)  Will give you a report when I get back.    Retired Old Man, Terry
    • You still got to lift your arms. You basically just roll your wrist over in the 1st half of the backswing.   
    • Day 288 6-17 Low point control without ball. hit quite a few swing where i was wanting the club to hit the ground.  Added a ball with towel behind it, just to see where im at. Wasn't horrible but need some more work. Pretty much full speed swings.
