No Mulligans

I like Azinger and I liked Miller (and Faldo too). There are a lot of critics who are quick to find fault.

That is an easy no for me. I'm 61 and retired, life is really good. Give me 5 million, life would be a bit better than it is now. Nicer golf courses, better ski trips, maybe a house closer to the beach (only 3 miles to the beach now, only 6 miles to Torrey Pines Golf Course which I can play pretty much any time I want) etc. 5 years in prison would be an extreme reduction in my quality of life. Even if I had a 95% chance of success, i still wouldn't take the bet. 99% chance of success? Hmm, I'd have to think about it.

Are you all adjusting for course rating and slope? Torrey South is a beast if you play from the back tees

The leader and co-leader at this point both use AimPoint

I had a physics question that was similar to that. We were asked to calculate the gravitational pull of a Cadillac sitting outside the window of where someone was born and compare that to the gravitational pull of some planet. I think it was the professor's dig at astrology

I play Torrey pretty often, this is an often repeated saying on the course. So the ocean has some sort of gravitational pull, I'll ask when someone says that.

I think poor conditions hurt high handicappers much more than good players especially when it comes to thin or dirt or mud lies. A good golfer that can consistently hit the ball first and have their divot in front of the ball doesn't have any problems with thin lies.

I was there for Thursday's round. I only watched Tiger play one hole, the 8th on the south. He had a putt of about a 45 feet that had a tricky breaking downhill last 10 feet. He left the flag in. He had about a 2 foot second putt and had the flag out. Most of the players i saw had the flag out.

Me too.

Spit can contain bacteria and viruses, some golfers are immune compromised such as transplant patients like myself. For some the flu or cold can result in a hospital stay or worse. It is not "just water". Spit where it has no chance of touching someone,s golf ball, like behind a tee box.

3 or 4 beers a year or so. I'm pretty close to a non drinker which is pretty easy for me as I don't like the feeling of being intoxicated.

The above was a post I made a long time ago. I seldom do speed training anymore as I don't dedicate as much time to golf as I use to. However, I have not lost the speed I gained even now a few years later and older (now 61 years old). My best hits now carry 220 and roll out to about 250 depending on conditions.

The Crossings in Carlsbad. Coronado. Barona. High end i.e. pricey, Aviara Carlsbad, La Costa Carlsbad. Maderias Poway. Bargain, The Vineyard in Escondido. The twilight rate at Torrey is reasonable for out of towners, the North is less expensive and is the course I prefer anyways. The rough will be nasty in January, pre pga tourney.

Yep, I'm going to try to change. I wonder what the average pga speed is... maybe I'll go for that.

Today it was 56 bpm
