Key Distances

Recommended Posts

When I was young it was 4 iron from 200, 8 from 150 and SW from 100. Now it's 5w, 7, GW (all with jacked lofts).

 

But there are several big boy distances that I have wired:

 

Golf Club: 12 minutes

Work: 12 minutes

Tropicana Field: 21 minutes from a seat behind third to my fridge for a post game beer. :).

Taylor Made Stealth 2 10.5 Diamana S plus 60  Aldila  R flex   - 42.25 inches 

SMT 4 wood bassara R flex, four wood head, 3 wood shaft

Ping G410 7, 9 wood  Alta 65 R flex

Srixon ZX5 MK II  5-GW - UST recoil Dart 65 R flex

India 52,56 (60 pending)  UST recoil 75's R flex  

Evon roll ER 5 32 inches

It's our offseason so auditioning candidates - looking for that right mix of low spin long, more spin around the greens - TBD

I timed it last night, stayed to the last out, hung around for a few minutes to make sure there wasn't a replay and left my seat.  It was 10:26 when I left my seat and 10:47 when I walked in the door at home - I can take back roads, the way they have the traffic patterns are terrible for getting on 275 North out of the parking lots.

While watching golf... Zero. "Honey, would you please bring me a drink?"

 

Edit: I have found that "please" works a lot better for keeping the peace.

Back in the day when I lived on the north side of Milwaukee, it was leave the house on Sunday morning at 10:45, drive up I-43, exit at Onieda Street, pay $10 to park in a yard on Watermolen Drive, walk 5 blocks to Gate A at Lambeau Field, buy a brat and Leinie's beer and be in my seat in Row 47, Section 125 (15 yd line) at 12:45 to watch the Packers for the 1pm kickoff.

There are advantages to small town life.  

 

Home to office:  5 minutes, if I get stuck at both lights. 

 

Office to club:  4 minutes, if stuck at same two lights.  

 

Club to home: 2 minutes, unless it's 7:00 on Wednesday and Mrs. Williams is on her way to church, then 5 minutes.  

 

Today's round, 3 guys, 3 carts, 18 holes, two hours 45 minutes.  Time waiting to be served in bar post round, 1 minute.

let's see:

 

8-14 minutes from home to work.

20-35 minutes to get to the golf course I like to play (lights can make it really long)

12-15 seconds for me to  get from the weather computer into the studio and in front of the camera with a smile on my face.

and 2 hours and 15 minutes to play 18 if the course is clear.

??  I hour 36 minutes according to google maps from former house to Lambeau.  You know they patrol the interstate heavily on Packer Sunday mornings.

 

Oh wait, you were preaching, you didn't know they were patrolling.

And I could have received a ticket for speed preaching those eight Sunday's a year. The best was when Christas Eve and the last game of the season matched up and of course it was a 4:00 home game for the Pack. :)
