    Sorry, been hanging low the past couple weeks, not feeling my best , with an on going cough and just lousy in general, trying to get back into the swing of things. 
    l see Rose Zang won the LPGA event with a Odyssey AI DB this week. @Rob Person I’m sure she made you proud, the birthday is coming up in about 2 weeks, got a round booked already at RockyGap resort in Maryland to celebrate and then hit the casino.
    Glad to see so many reviews and interactions going on, can’t say enough about MGS, and the members.
    Happy to be part of such a great community.

    I thought that it was bad being a Buffalo Sabres fan. The Detroit Red Wings may be a franchise with a great history, but that franchise has been a disaster for more than a decade, too!

    Got out to the NC State course this afternoon after work.  Front nine closed for aeration, but the back nine was open and I played it (walking and carrying) twice. Drives were decent once I remembered my swing thoughts. Used the Mindset balls and again was hitting fairways once the swing thoughts were fixed; distances weren't super long but I had a couple of 200+, and hit 6 of the last 10 fairways. Putting sucked as usual. Came millimeters from a miracle birdie on #15 the second time around; pitch from 40 yards out hit the pin and stopped two feet away. I parred 15 both times. Also parred 16 the second time, which was an extremely rare two-straight-pars for me. Sand was my nemesis; the two holes I got in greenside bunkers, the bunkers won the war. Shot 92 anyway though in spite of the sand mishaps.
    NC State is a VERY hilly course. The guy I played with was impressed that I walked all 18 toting the sticks. I'm feeling it right now, believe me, and will probably feel it more tomorrow. Post my  scores, take a shower and ibuprofen, and go to bed.

    Great article @Josh Parker!   Well done Explaining "Ready Golf"!  It's not being discourteous for playing Ready Golf. Nor playing the correct tees! 😁 ⛳

    Friday I played and greens were great. Sunday, I needed a sledgehammer to get to the pin. I asked my son (works at the course) Did they raise the decks on the greens mowers? Yes, because it is getting warmer, and they don't want to burn up the greens. They have Bent Grass greens and we are to far south for Bent. 
    This happened to me last year at Pinehurst. Their greens are good and fast mine were already slow. I must have been 8' past the flag for two days!

    Yuck for the fleas, triple yuck for your FIL.
    I've been on the medical side of what is happening with your FIL, and it's an extremely uncomfortable conversation to have with anyone. Hoping it's not too late to help him; I had one case in particular that it was already too late.

    The golf industry has witnessed the emergence of numerous new brands, each striving to carve out its own niche and distinguish itself. Stix is one such brand, and we are excited to have them participate in MyGolfSpy Forum member testing.

    Thanks. I suspect that the issue is me rather than the weighting. I had one round with what felt like a billion three-putts. The condition of the greens plus my fear of going past the hole primarily drove that performance. Since making an adjustment in distance control, I had two three-putts in 36 holes. Both were the result of me getting lazy about the third putt.
    I am going to spend a lot of time working on speed/distance over the course of this season. If I still have issues, then I may adjust the weight of the putter.
