I got my clubs gripped, got some plugs put in a few (I had bought them used last season, turns out some were a little too short).  Looks like I am ready!  Hit a bucket and a half of balls today and man...RUST!

I can already tell I am going to be sore tomorrow.  Sucks.  What do you guys usually do for your first game of the season?  I'm not playing for another week or so but I do want to get back into shape.

As soon as the snow clears, I head out to the course, alone or with a couple friends.  It is just "practice" until 4/1 and handicap posting season starts.  Our tournament schedule begins mid-May so I am usually somewhat ready.

I like hitting the range a lot right before season (which we almost play year round here, so take that for what it's worth). I'll word it like this, if I haven't played in a bit, I like to hit the range a lot just to get the feels back. My first round is usually good, then my next one is not that good....lol

      Day 47: simulator day! Played St. Andrew’s and shot a +1. Not bad, especially with having to putt at this simulator set up. Had about 5 minutes at the end to work on some feels as well.

      I think you're saying it's preposterous to think that the areas on this club are anything like what's shown here: 30mm toward the toe or heel loses only 5% distance? Highly, highly doubtful. So a guy who hits the ball there and normally hits the ball about 250… will hit it instead about 238. By missing the sweet spot by about 1.2 inches? Highly, highly doubtful. Heck, the high heel barely gets into the red, and orange is only "up to" 10%! @M2R, I've never heard of "Ask Golf Nut" but I'm dubious of his claims in the video and really, really dubious of what's on his site: "Why AskGolfNut Is the Most Trusted Data-Driven Golf Resource". Hmmmmmm.

      a) No b) This MLR says: I doubt the MLR is going to affect their weekly league games, in other words.

      So the question was posed today by some of my friends.  Is a pitch mark the same as a divot?  I thought NO, but they argued if your ball lands in another player's divot (made by club during a swing) this was the same as a pitch mark, i.e. the ball mark made when the ball lands
