I go up and down for sure. I'm a bit down on the game right this minute. I think that's because I don't have a group of guys I golf with. I go solo a lot and when I'm not playing well or have other places I could/should be, it's almost impossible to just "lose myself" in the game. I can't clear the headspace. I'm so much better when I have people with me who I like to distract me. But... well... being a young father with a demanding job and nighttime freelance writing gigs makes it hard to develop golf relationships. HAHA ****. I sound like I need therapy.

I'd love to walk, but many of our courses don't allow it, including my home course due to the distance between many holes. I may change my membership at some point because of it. I'd love to walk.

So I just had the best round of my life on Saturday. Admittedly, it was still a 95, and not my best SCORING round ever, but it was the first time where I could see my game falling into place. My driver and three wood were both mostly on point. I hit about 50% of fairways, and even the ones I missed it wasn't by much. I started super slow, and struggled all day with any iron lower than a 9. Either I'm leaving the face wide open, or I'm closing it too fast. I think it's mostly a tempo issue. Work in progress! Note, this was on a 140 slope course playing from the tips because everyone else was and I figured, why not? I suspect if i'd played a tee box or two shorter I would have shot under 90 for the first time. Lesson learned.

I went out and played. Had a great time. Bogey took care of me. He did a great job MCing the event too. As for me, well my team shot a 62. Winners shot a 52. We were playing from the whites though, with two tiger holes. I shot a solo eagle on a short par 4. Drove the green and sunk a 15 yard double breaker putt.

So if we're doing SA, I'd say La Cantera unless Hula can get us on TPC.

I'm in. Where you at Hula????

I'd only do it if a bunch of NOrth Texas folks jumped in.

We're riding together if we're going to Abilene haha.

I guess north of I-40 in the spring/summer, south of I-40 in the fall/winter. Generally.

I'm good with any of them.

How'd you like to be in his weekly game at Riviera? haha

Any playing spots left Bogey?

I assume that's an Edel putter. Looking sweet. I've always wanted to give Vegas a try too. Looks like a "small/independent manufacturer spotlight" of some kind to me.

I'm in. I've been struggling with gloves as it were.

Crickets. BK has thrown out Oct 17 or Nov 7. Anyone object to those?
