2strokes

Like a few others, I am playing my dream set. A complete custom fitted set of pings, Hoofer bag and hat. Now I just need the talent

Last Monday I got a chance to play the Fort Benning GA Marshall and Patton courses. What a beautiful setting and course was in great condition after a few days of rain. The best part is as you address the ball and get ready to swing, you hear automatic weapons fire and mortar rounds going off. Its a GREAT excuse for a "miss hit"

Took a lesson yesterday after 16 years away from the game. Big bad slice hitter my whole life. Lessons from Matt Trimble at ASU Karstens Ping Learning Center, video analysis. Things I learned: 1. To break my wrist on the backswing. I was not doing that. 2. To roll my wrist (club head) open to close on the swing. My whole life(56 yo) I never knew this. 3. To make a divot in front of the ball . in the old days a divot was behind my ball and it was always something bad when it happened. I always tried to not take grass, just the ball. He made me practice 3 divots in front of the spot where the marker was, then he would let me hit a ball. I could continue to hit the ball if the divot was in front. No divot in front, take the ball away and hit 3 more in front, then I could hit another ball. I was amazed that I could actually hit a draw when hitting correctly. Old days the only time i hit it to the left was if there was water there

Only 6+% of us in the 51-60 bracket. I feel lonely 56 and getting back to it after 16 years of avoidance.

Cheddar ones!!!!
