  1. Never so happy to be at work. It means the big snowstorm was not so big.

  2. Forecast calling for 6"-12" of snow. You have got to be kidding me.

      Probably not a prank, we just had a cold front pack up and move East. It snowed here a day after it was 80*.

      Updated forecasts actually calling for less snow. Here's hoping.

      Mother Nature can be a tease...

  3. Just added a bunch of new pics from the PGA Show. Look for even more in the next couple of days along with some video.

  4. Absolutely no loyalties here either. Right now I've got clubs from Adams, Ping, Titleist, Miura, and Callaway, and TaylorMade in my bag. If you pinned me down and forced me to give you a favorite, I'd probably go with Miura, but I doubt anyone would fault me for it.
  5. -19 on the way in to work this morning.

      Wow, where are you? It was almost 40 here this morning.

      That was the temp on my ride in to work (I live north of Albany, NY). Warming up now...I think it's up to -4.

  7. Foz - that's a good idea, and I love that it's a simple idea to implement. The specifications table might be a good spot for it. I'll be sure it's included in the next review. Actually...half way through this reply I decided it wouldn't be that hard to add it to this review. DONE! Thanks for idea. T
  8. I hear ya man. I struggled with that myself. I even tried to make the bars go from right to left, but that actually made it worse. One option I can think of is not to use a bar for accuracy, but then it looks completely different from everything else. Another idea is to express the accuracy as a negative -5 = a 5 yard miss. At least that way longer bars are better, but that could prove even more confusing.
  9. We have the capabilities to show dispersion and I would love to do it. I'm definitely trying to figure out how to make it work. The issue is that on a larger test we might collect data from 6-9 golfers, hitting upwards of 20 shots each with 5-10 different golf clubs. Imagine showing all those plot points within a relatively small area (the screen starts to look like there was a paintball accident). Filtering does provide some options however, so our approach may be to provide a blank canvas and then let the user select the clubs and golfers from which they'd like to see shots.
  10. Trying to master the folding and unfolding of my new Clic Gear.

      LOL... once you get it down, it will take less than 5 seconds from the time ya take the bag off to the time ya put it in the trunk.

      I got mine at the beginning of last season and I still don't have it down. lol.

  11. Stupid power outage at the office. Working on a Sunday.

      It just must be the day for it. I've been working on a voicemail outage since noon yesterday, with no sleep.

      Got my problem fixed at 2:00AM this morning. I've already got my 40 hours in, so the rest of the week is OT. The government will love me.

       

  12. I can barely walk today. Thank you very much kettlebells.

  13. Hi Mike, Over the last couple of years I've let my fitness slip a bit. Between moving farther away from my gym (and office), working longer hours (I basically have 1 full-time job and 2 part-time jobs), and playing a lot more golf (walking whenever the course permits), I don't have the same windows of time I used to. Toss in a one month old and any hope of resuming my old workout routine are out the window (which is more or less counter productive as far as the golf game goes). All that said, I'm tired of making excuses (and buying bigger pants). The simplest solution, I think, is to supplement my infrequent (realistically 2x a week at best) trips to the gym with some type of daily workout at home. I've looked at treadmill and ellipticals for home, but a quality machine is easily over a grand (probably more) and neither does for flexibility, core strength, or anything else for that matter. I'm a big fan of the gravity machines, but I'm not sold on the Chuck Norris home model, and they don't offer much of a cardio workout. What I think makes a whole lot of sense space-wise, financially, and in terms of what I'm hoping to achieve (better overall fitness with an emphasis on the "golf muscles") is a kettlebell routine. I was wondering if you had any particular thoughts on a kettlebells both in general, and in terms of golf-specific fitness, or if you had any alternative suggestions for a home-based workout regimen? Thanks, T

      Favorite of Friends: Guiness+miniwheats+bananna+splash of irish cream+blender = better then it sounds

      You lost me with miniwheats. Last one I made, I tossed in a whole icecream sandwich. Makes for a nice texture.

      Mostly added as a ode to the breakfast of champions: Guniwheats or Beerio's if you need something light

  17. Playing Capital Hills at Albany today; a day ahead of the Duramed Futures Tour.

      Awesome. A few years ago I played the Palm course at Disney Resort on the Saturday before the Funai Classic. The course was closed to just us (my father-in-law is good friends with the Director of Parks at Disney), the conditions were insane.

       

  18. Glad that a lot of time and effort (and golf balls struck) appears to be paying off.

  19. confounded by the math behind our adjustable driver faceoff.

  20. investigating adjustability.

  21. Gotta love the Mizunos. Always among the very best looking (and performing) irons year after year.
