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

This was Brookside, but SA was similarly flooded. They never take down the signs, you just can’t see them when they’re submerged 😂

I hope you guys are all doing well. I played a TON of golf this year, but most of it has been midweek after work in Ventura county. I managed to get my handicap down to a 15.4 and continue to grind at

Hi Everyone,

 

We’re planning on Diamond Bar this Sunday morning at 8:40, anyone want to make a 4th?

@tehuti, @Chasing_Bogeys And myself are three with @Shindig doing volunteer work at the LA Open.

Please let us know if you want to join, or we might get stuck in a 5-some 🥺

@Lihu, @Chasing_Bogeys, @Shindig Hey guys. It’s not looking too good weather wise for Sunday. Do we need to cancel, or wait it out?

 

If you folks bail, I’ll go up into the mountains to ski and board 😁

But, yeah, it looks like rain on Sunday...

My kid turned up sick today so I logged on to cancel.

Hey @Shindig, might be able to jump on the course for a short 9 at or after lunch. Let me know if you’re free?

I've never played Willowick - how is that course? Is it walkable?

@Chasing_Bogeys, @Shindig?

I'm going to try to play on Saturday afternoon. Hoping to get a tee time around 1pm. Not sure if I'm going to play DeBell (Burbank) or Brookside or Hansen Dam. I'm taking kids for a hike in the morning and not sure when we'll be back so not sure when I'll get out. I can text you guys Saturday when I have a plan if you want?

I can't play on Sunday.

Willowick is okay. Not the best maintained course, but it is challenging, walkable and not too expensive. It’s my unofficial “home” course for 2019 through the SCGA. I want an official handicap this year to meadure my progress.

thanks for the willowick quick review. 🙂 "Walkable and not expensive" - sounds like my kinda place!

Good luck on Sunday. One of these weekends we'll get us all out as a 4some. When the weather starts to cooperate it will be easier to plan.

Have any of you played the Navy course in Cypress? I haven’t been there since the 90s, but it was a nice track back then. It is open to the public now.

      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.
