Timing for testing (2025)
April thru Oct. Winter I hit balls into barn net only. Decent sim/launch monitor is 25 miles away.

Data access for testing
This will always be my downfall. I don't have ready access to any data collection. That's why I didn't try in 2024.

This a place I can go to do some initial research on a subject. Google can often lead you in the wrong direction and is way to commercialized. I want to learn and not necessarily be sold to. I don't consider myself to ever be good enough to actually impart any words of wisdom to offer improvement. I do like to offer words of encouragement now and then cause I do realize this game is hard. But fun as well. I'm the first to laugh at myself for some shots, and not afraid to talk about it. I especially enjoy the lack of political discussions.

I am using the Sub70 004 mallet putter in black now for well over a year and shows no wear at all. Super quality.

Welcome @MGS_Gabe to the forums. Lots a great stuff to keep you occupied during these upcoming winter days. Glad you discovered the love for golf. In my gold years how well, I play, is up to me and no one else. It'd great to still be competitive in something. Welcome aboard. -
Sorry for the loss my man. They all hurt. Still losing a comrade from Uncle Sam's Best now and then. Know the feeling of that helplessness sometimes. Great advice.

Election Day. Rainy and 25-30 mph winds so I decided to schedule eye exam since season is almost over. Went to barn to hit some balls into net (my tgt net is still pretty decent shape). Worked on consistency shots and to generally stay loose. Plan to head out tomorrow. Cloudy but 55 so for MI in Nov I'll take it. Hoping for a couple more rounds before that white stuff flutters down.

I hear ya. That time of year. Callie my lab ran out after supper tonight and I hit 2 little eyes in the flashlight beam. Figured it was cat or bunny. Nope, Jed's fair game. She charged and I yelled and some how she heard me and stopped about 2 feet short to sniff. That critter just curled up and hissed. Started to rain so we headed in.

Only had 2 kids come to the door on Thurs. Lights were on and everything. Stayed up well past midnight just in case. Same for Fri night. Tonight I'm sure they'll come knocking on the door since they get an extra hour of roaming. Very disappointing this year.

You are 100% correct. Pass on Great Job to that young lady and good luck in Maui.

After a week w/o, managed to get out and play my normal round of 9. Did OK at 38 especially since I haven't even swung a club. Today was a totally amazing weather day for Mid Michigan this time of year. Normal high at 50*. Todays high was 78 and new record. Wind was steady at 20mph and gust at 30. About 70% of the leaves are down. Not gone, just down and very dry so a 20-30 mph breeze was a swirling $&&t storm of leaves. Took the leaf blower out but to no avail. 1 second here, the next replaced by more. How can I complain? Golf end of Oct for goodness sakes. Hoping next week has some sixties days.

Frankly, I dropped anything to do with TM after what and how they destroyed Adams Golf in 2012. Said one thing and did the other. As my mom always said...
