Not intentionally

Day 1: Starting over. Did my arm drills between meetings this morning.

My weight issue was a lack of prioritization. Yes, I had a lot on my plate but I always feel I should make time for what is important and I just let it slip to the bottom of the priority list. I began taking the easy way out by going to junk food instead of taking a little time for something more healthy and by not doing at least a little exercise each day...or at least ever other day. Unfortunately when I am tired & hungry I can make the wrong decisions when it comes to food & exercise. But now things should be slowing down and I am recommitting myself. Tonight will be the first test. I have an evening client appointment so I will be home late and those days are often the hardest to make the correct decisions.

Its been a while since I updated, so here goes. First: Thanks to all that were at the TST Outing in OH this past week. It was fun. I had allowed myself to let my golf training & weight loss fall behind the last couple of months. Simply got busy with other things and failed to make either a priority. Weight-wise I've added @ 8 lbs but feel I should be able to get that off quickly once I get back on the treadmill (TONIGHT!) and cut back on the hot dogs, pizza and beer that I enjoy a lot during the summer. As for golf, I do not have a good benchmark but suspect my lack of practice/training/drills has added several strokes to my score. I shot an embarrassing score at Virtues last Sunday. It is posted to GHIN and those in attendance know it but other than that I am not going to mention shooting a 112 (opps, just let it slip). @bkuehn1952 felt I began to rush my putts once I knew I was having a bad score and I need to not let frustration get to me. Still, it was more than putting that caused that score. I did my arm drill for the first time in quite a while this week and will get a video on Evolver soon and will get re-committed to improving. As for my foot recovery I am ecstatic. I golfed 45 holes at Garland May 28 & 29 then 36 holes in Ohio June 1 & 2 and then 9 holes June 4th. That is 90 holes in 8 days and no pain in the foot. 😊 That is a far cry from May 2023 at Little Mountain where I could barely finish 9 holes. On another note, @Hardspoon and @saevel25 are going to coordinate a 2025 TST Outing. I encourage all to attend that if they can as these outings are fantastic fun and a great way to meet other TST Members.

Shot a lousy 53 on 9 holes. Took 4 drops on the 1st 4 holes. Two drops on a single hole! 🤬 Did get my game back for the last 4 holes of it could have been worse. one highlight was #8 Par-3 playing @ 190 to the center with a back pin. I chose to play my 5 which I consider my 190 club and I crushed it 205 and was on the top tier pin high. 2 putt for par and won closest to pin on that hole. i could be wrong but I feel like I am taking my eye off the ball prior to contact and that is hurting me.

It worked for me on Chrome on my laptop

That may have been to offset my error in the HCPs for that day??? 😁

We did applaud, but we were a small group and did not get the "ROAR" of a great shot at the US Open.

#16 At Eaglesticks. The drive being 271 yards is not as special as it sounds. Once part the 150 marker it was a lot of downhill roll. Still, it set up a rare birdie for me.

Thanks for all who came & helped. It was fun, I do not recall who was in charge of the weather but “GREAT Job”

Wordle 1,077 4/6 ⬜⬜🟩🟨⬜ 🟨🟨🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩⬜🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 just missed that birdie putt

I kinda thought about that after I posted. Have fun

I think you are only playing 3 rounds….i hope this is significantly sufficient supply. Bought 2 dozen balls. Hoping that lasts the season….or at least this weekend 😜

We are not playing Northstar. We are playing Eaglesticks & Virtues.

Question: Last year I did not post any scores to GHIN due to an injury. I have not yet posted this year. i reactivated my GHIN membership today. I have my. scorecards for all rounds this year going back to April 16th. i know we are to post immediately, but I did not. should I post my rounds from earlier this year or just start posting going forward?

I bumped into a couple from the Columbus area at Garland this week and he said both courses are good. Of course I have no clue what his definition of a "Good Course" is. But it doe encourage me.
