    If you have a long enough metal rod, you might be able to tap it down in place. probably whatever it is wont come out or be fixed without removing the grip.

    Well kinda yes - when I went to Australia a few times there were days that literally didn't exist for me on that year due to the swap. I'm sure there is some weird math that could prove is all wrong in some form or fashion!

    Ya know, work is really getting in the way of golf related activities lately. 
    Hope it's a great call tomorrow,  and I'm truly bummed I won't be able to attend!

    Just so everyone is aware, the reduced fitting price requires a purchase at the fitting.  Fitting needs to be scheduled by 1/22 and completed by 2/15.

    Date 02/07/2024 Course Name Sulphur Springs CC Gross Score 79 Course Handicap 8 Gross Strokes over/under par 7 Net Score to Par -1 Net Score 71 Net Birdies or better 6 Longest Drive 240 SIM Round? Much better. I still made 11 bad swings (perhaps I should say less than good instead of bad), but I made significantly more good swings. I figured out I hanging back on my right side because of my right ankle, so today I dropped my right leg back and “felt” that kept 90% of my weight on my left leg. I say felt because there were a number of times I could I had a really good weight shift. My bad swings were more of a tempo issue than anything else. As the round went on I had fewer mistakes so this was a very exciting day for me.

    Date 02/07/2024 Course Name Surrey Hills Gross Score 74 Course Handicap 6 Gross Strokes over/under par 3 Net Score to Par -3 Net Score 68 Net Birdies or better 6 Longest Drive 313 SIM Round? What a round! Everything was working. My swing is starting to feel good again and I'm getting some distance back. Despite the front nine being 30 mph wind that always seemed to be a crosswind that pushed my ball near trouble, I managed to keep all my shots relatively safe. 
    I even managed to get a "hole" in one! 🤣 I actually had to look up the ruling on something like this and it looks like I get relief according to Rule 16 since it's a burrowing animal hole (beaver in this case). Needless to say, I made a trip back to the cart for my ball grabber so I didn't lose it further in.

    Date 02/06/2024 Course Name Key West Golf Club Gross Score 83 Course Handicap 13 Gross Strokes over/under par 13 Net Score to Par 0 Net Score 70 Net Birdies or better 5 Longest Drive 185 SIM Round? Let me start with conditions.  I think the photo says it all!

    It is Key West and I've lived here for 17 years.  Originally from Western New York, you'd think I'd be able to take the "cold."  However, it's amazing how fast your blood thins out when you're in a warm climate!  That's the 8th hole which is a par 3 over mangroves.  
    Today it was 62 degrees with 25-35 mph winds.  Yes, I have a windstopper heavy vest and a beanie to keep me warm.  You can save the sympathy comments!
    Anyway, given the conditions, I played pretty good.  

    I had only one missed fairway (and it was a doozie).  Again, I'm seeing some added length in my drives today.  Even with the high winds, my performance driving distance was 174 with a long of 185 yards.   That's good for me!
    My approach shots were about average.  The 11% greens in regulation is about average.  What saved me today was getting up and down and my putting.   The six up and downs for pars did not include the three I had for bogey.  Together, it yielded a solid strokes gained for my short game.

    The doubles I had were just moments of poor judgement and execution.   The 25 putt day was a good day, including a 22 ft putt for par on the last hole.   
    I just hope that I can continue my decent play going forward.
