  1. Got out for 9 today but did not play very well... Sliced a few tee shots, which I haven't done in a while, and also pulled one left .. so had to punch out of trouble a few times... Two of those rescue shots ended up being pretty good and put me back into good spots where I could make a shot to the green. Wedges were working ok and putting was mostly pretty good .. except for a 3-putt on the first hole where I pushed the second putt just enough to roll over the edge of the hole... So there are two very small water hazards on the Front 9 of my course .. I mean so small a large family of frogs can't all hop in there at once .. and yep I managed to splash a ball in each of them today! They were both short approaches, too .. and I have been starting to hit my irons better *on the range* .. just didn't hit either of those shots really fully, so yeah I have bit of a confidence / shot commitment problem out on the course... ... work in progress...

    NHL

    Go Rangers!! (.. there is no such thing as The President's Cup curse....)
  3. In my garage I removed it on the side I set the net up on .. was actually pretty easy. (Tip: tag the wires on both ends before disconnecting).
  4. Got a Grayson polo as a gift (more than I would spend on myself ) and it does seem well made, comfortable and importantly for me true to size!
  5. Great topic! Exactly something I've been trying to work on. Think part of it is simply the literal nature of being a guy - having that tiny bit of recessive Neanderthal in us that senses we have a (haha) club in our hands and we see something within reach to smash All joking aside, it is a big mental hurdle to rearrange our thinking / our concept of where the real power comes from in a golf swing to propel the golf ball. I'm trying to remind myself on each and every golf swing... "Hit it better not harder" Or visualize this... ..and not this...
  6. There's a TM Demo Day this coming Saturday .. not sure what they have but looking for something "crossover" like to try to possibly replace my 5H....
  7. Read that this morning, too - really enjoy some of his strategy and mental game pieces like that one! One shot at a time....
  8. Thx! Actually planning on going to @Preeway July meet-up in Nebraska - includes Wild Horse which from just looking at the short flyover vid made me want to go!! But yeah would like to check out courses in SD sometime, too .. parts of that state look pretty nice for a visit! @Shank Aaron - Engineers is outside Roslyn NY in Nassau County and not too far from me. Is that May 8th? Do you know if they allow spectators? Anyway course has some crazy elevation changes and obstacles .. def do your homework on it in advance!
  9. So after reading your review I went and ordered a pair of the Rivet with the Enliven Golf lens. Did a custom order to get the black frame with that lens and, interestingly, from the look of the order confirmation, it comes in separate pieces as a pair of lenses, the frame, a pair of ear pads .. so a small bit of "some assembly required" maybe? Hoping they magically enable me to better track my ball ... on my not so hugely long shots ... but yeah the old eyes ain't what they used to be...
  10. Hahaha well Happy HAPPY Happy Mr GolfSpy Sam!!! #whatevertherealnumberis #whocaresanyway #aslongasyouarehealthyandhappy Cent Anni ..and yeah dude only women are allowed to be "39" for as long as they think they can pull it off...
  11. That's a bold move going "NFL" = No F***ing Logo!! But seriously very chill looking iron heads! Enjoy this one Spy-Clubbuilders!
  12. Well just as those weather people .. (can't say weather 'man' anymore not just PC but some of the meteorologists on TV .. at least around here on the channel my wife watches in the morning .. are female and kinda hot and one is like a fitness model and the other won some state beauty pageant in the past) .. so just as they said it's wet and grey and dreary here today... Good day for some indoor exercise and indoor practice - maybe fire up the ExPutt and work on some longer putts, and maybe whack a few into the garage net working on pressure shift and hands/wrists coming into and at impact. Looking forward to the intriguing testing opportunity announcement and to the community call later! Followed by, of course, happy hour and maybe date night with my honey Hope y'all make it a great day .. with whatever it has in store for you!!!
  13. Good info, thx. And don't know why .. trying to support the economy late at night while sitting on the couch .. just ordered a pair of Rivet with the Enliven golf lenses... Online shopper tip: check the Web for any promo codes - found one for -50% off and it worked!
  14. A few years ago I joined a private club .. to be able to play almost on demand, and to practice whenever I wanted .. and, yeah, there's a dress code .. and, yeah, I think it could be be a *little* more relaxed... For example, I like to go untucked everywhere. I wear nice polos but still don't understand the insistence on being to be tucked in on the course. Another example .. women like to wear leggings, but those are considered athletic wear and so not allowed. OTOH the dress code (whatever it actually is) at this club appears to me to be inconsistent - e.g. you'll see guys out there with large, colorful NFL or MLB team logos emblazoned across the chest... Anyway first world problems and we're kinda committed to staying/playing there for the time being .. so "it is what it is"!
  15. Right now it's an Aldila Ascent PL Blue (40/A); self-selected after participating in the Otto-Phlex Experiment from which I was happy using a Grafalloy Pro Launch Blue (45/A).
  16. Mine is just like that, and I think it's currently hiding out in that super fancy Bettinardi Custom fitting studio
  17. Partly the phone cam lens .. at the end of the tall fences, maybe about 205ish yds, it's about 50 yds across .. so yeah very good trying to hit "fairways" practice! hah! HAHA!! ..we'll see what happens when we get there, but I appreciate the vote of confidence!
  18. LOVE Black Labs!! ..but my guy, in his prime and even into his later years, would *not* be just looking at the yummy tasty treats very nearby within easy reach...
  19. Well heck if there's too much extra space in your garage I can send you some of my junk Umm yeah, that sounds like a one way suicide mission to me Theory: that person is a "plant" playing a psychopath for the professor to see how the rest of the students react So you mean like at RNK when you'll say to me - "shoot ya'll your golfin ball headed off yonder past the hollah and went way back in there with the brambles and them ticks" ... in that case, yes I will know exactly what you're talkin about Just keep in mind after "Independence Day" it's all billable consulting time Man seems like you've had a run of bad luck lately... Sorry to hear and hopefully that turns around for you!
  20. There is at least one vet @EasyPutter who does, but he's wau up in upstate NW New York.
  21. gm all on that middle of the week day!! So far sun is shining here, tho a bit cooler than yesterday. But hey ya know the weather does what -it- wants Heading out for another Chiro checkup/adjustment - gotta say between this and acupuncture .. well and yoga & stretching, steady exercise, some of those @GolfSpy_KFT mobility movements, a beer or two on the evenings .. my back is usually doing much better vs past few years! And hopefully continued to hold up though the multiple, multi-day golf trips coming up over this season... Hope everyone else is doing well ... get out there and make it a great (you know what ) day!!
  22. Did some random length putting practice for distance control; then over to the range to work on... .. wedges and distance control; irons working on better contact and wrist action thru impact (also checking out JumboMax grips, see User Group thread under Equipment > Shafts, Grips); hit a few hybrids off a short tee and a few drivers... Who needs foot spray when you have old range balls Haha but all of these did stay inside the right side fence, tho a few would have been in trouble on the course... Also, while working on irons, remembered something from lessons two or so years ago that I don't think i was doing properly anymore = keep the back to the target sitting transition and the start of the downswing... Started getting better contact after that. And then back to the practice green to roll a few more. But, as always - work in progress!!
  23. Oh... Yeah was taking about the watch; I haven't seen how Connex works. But you'll figure something out!
