  1. I have a Batcaddy X8R and where I was playing the course was undulating hills and I didn't trust the remote and I got in the habit of keeping my hands on the handle. Now I play mostly at a flatter course but still keep my hands on the cart.  I do keep the remote in my back pocket and will use it a time or two on a round. I often send the cart forward with the distance button on the handle. It will go ten yards with each button push for a max of 30 yards.

    Do the hearing aids help immediately or it takes some time? My T is from hearing loss. 

    I've worn aids for a while now and I don't remember the sequence when I first started wearing them and everything was new and different, but pretty much immediately, if I remember correctly.  These days I don't always put my aids in when I get up in the mornings and the tinnitus will get louder and and louder and very annoying. And when I do put the aids in the tinnitus goes away immediately.

  3. It was hot and humid in Georgia last week. We tee off at 9:20 and walk the front and ride the back.

    The hottest I've played was 105° and it was humid. I was drenched when I finished and I was in a cart.

    I also carry 3L of water and I'll drink it all when it's 90° plus.

    Before I tee off on 18 I start cooling the car down and I get in a nice cool car when I'm finished.

    Traveling through ATL sucks.  That is all. Sad part is that the 85/285 "bypass" had 7 separate accidents within 3 miles (probably all as a chain effect) and this was the least delayed option. 😕

    I was a teenager when we moved to Atlanta in ’66 and except for three years in the US Army and four years I spent in Charlotte I lived in or around Atlanta until I retired three years ago. I’ve lived south, downtown, northwest and northeast of the city. I drove site-to-site as a part of my job, and I think I’ve spent a couple of years just sitting in traffic. Every year the traffic has gotten worse and in every direction.

    I moved to just outside of Athens, GA when I retired and I do not miss Atlanta traffic

    What hole? I play the same course as you I believe. I hate snakes too.....

    This was at Jennings Mill. The one in the top picture was on the large fairway on nine going from the pond to the woods. The one on the bottom was behind the blue tee box on 15 going from the cart path to the houses. I saw both today.

    Love seeing my Falcons bottom of the pile. Just a wonderful job.

    I don't get that pick. Penix isn't going to help the Falcons this year, or the next.

     

  7. I like a burger with cheddar cheese, mayo, mustard, ketchup, onion, lettuce and tomato. Or, a burger with Swiss cheese and mushrooms and mayo.

    The ultimate burger is Bison, mayo, fig jam, tomato and a fried egg. The drink would be a Left Hand Milk Stout.

     

    All the burgers are cooked well.

     

  8. Shogun. Although, I'm ready for it to end because I'm tired of the subtitles. I read the book years ago which is excellent. And there was a made for TV series in the early 80s that was good.

    Warrior. On Netflix so far it's been good.

    Sugar. I watched the first episode and it may be the next to the last one I watch.

  9. I have another: Guys that can’t hit as far as they think they can and wait for the green to clear. We got stuck behind a twosome yesterday and although they hit the ball far, they would wait until the green cleared, more than once, before teeing off when the distance was 380-425 yards. They were hitting farther than I can, but nowhere near the green, so why wait? All it does is slow everyone else down.

     I attend an annual meet at the Tail of the Dragon every July. This year is our 20th year anniversary meet.

    I've had a few MINIs and I didn't live far from The Dragon. I've been there quite a few times. Only made Killboy once though.
