ParFore74x

Sorry for your loss.

Same here. Getting par 10pm is tough in my world. Staying up until 1am to watch the whole race might be quite the task. That’s great news for her!

Good morning spies and TGIF!! For a three day work week, this one sure is dragging. Woke up to the lightest trace of snow on the ground. There is definitely a chance for more until about noon today but depending on one’s source for the forecast, it’s anywhere from a trace to 5”. Such a guessing game. F1 race weekend from Australia so the race will air live at 11pm on Saturday here so I’ll need to prepare for that if I want to watch it live. That means sleeping in or a nap on Saturday. There will not be any improvements in the weather so maybe both. Have a wonderful Friday everyone!

I hear that! Watching my daughter play soccer is like watching the World Cup for me. So much emotional attachment. She’s been playing since she was four, 17 now, and our entire lives have revolved around it since she started. I am putting the part of your quote down that I highlighted with my list of favorite quotes. That totally nails how I feel about my kid every day. Best of luck to your daughter getting into the college that she desires.

Good Thursday morning spies! Temps are hovering in the low to mid 40s for the next few days which I am totally cool with, hopefully it keeps any chances of that white stuff from falling. We have the “Spring Kickoff” at the high school tonight to recognize all of the athletes that have spring and summer sports that they will be participating in. It’s been fun so far, watching my daughter transition from a timid freshman a couple seasons ago to a proud junior for this soccer season. Congratulations to @GolfSpy_APH for the recognition! You do a great job around here and I love the fact that you are engaged in so many threads. Your hard work is appreciated. Have a great day everyone!

Looking good, nice job!

Good morning spies!! Back to work after a week off for me and my body is trying hard to not go. Dragging quite a bit so far this morning. The high today is only 40° but I may take clubs with me to work just in case I’m feeling like walking a few holes after work. Always be prepared. Nothing else going on at the moment, have a great day spies. ️

First round of 2024 is in the books and it was not great but it was within my expectations. Shot 47/43 for a 90 with a mere 2 pars, 4 FIR and 3 GIR. All of the pars, FIR and GIR were on the back nine. The 38 putts really killed me today, just could not get myself into a rhythm. Two of those were three putts. Room for improvement and a fairly clear idea of what needs to be prioritized. Hopefully got the rust knocked off enough that the next round will be better.

I’m calling this one my best today because for some reason I rarely get a good drive on this hole. Par 5 playing 523 yards which is flat to the dogleg and then uphill to the green. Nothing special in terms of scoring but it was just one of those tee shots that had a nice flight to it. Ball stayed fairly low and was perfectly straight all the way to the fairway. Just one of those shots that makes me smile. I’ve been experimenting with driver settings lately and where I currently at seems to be working well.

Welcome to one of the coolest threads on MGS!!!

Thanks all!! Pictures don’t do them justice, they are very nice in person.

The munis here have been open for a few weeks already due to unseasonably warm weather. I’m hoping to go check one out today when the temps climb just a bit more.

Welcome to one of the coolest threads on the forum. Have fun on your Guys Trip!

Good Tuesday morning spies! Last day off of work for me from our trip to Las Vegas. Definitely needed that extra sleep this morning to help get back to normalcy. Currently working on some chipping and pitching with the new 54° Sub 70 in my basement and hoping that it warms up outside just enough in the next couple of hours so that I can go play a round to get 2024 started. Have a great day everybody!

My new sand wedge from Sub 70 arrived while I was at n Las Vegas, thankfully my Father lives just down the street and was able to grab it for me until I arrived back at home. Sub 70 JB Forged Full Groove 54° to match the 58° that I had bought a few weeks ago. Project X LZ 6.0 shaft and Golf Pride MCC midsize grip. Also picked up a towel and alignment stick cover while I was at it.

No way! Night mode all day long!!

That’s always kind of bugged me as well but I forget about because I’m always using my phone to post and don’t see it.

I’m a glove wearer for full shots as well. Huge fan of Bender gloves with their various styles. I use the full leather elite when it is chilly outside and the mesh backed gloves during the hotter days, the palm tree design is my goto. I also remove my glove between shots to help minimize it getting super sweaty. With or without a glove, is all about feel and comfort for that shot.

Sub70 wedges are the only one that I have experience with and it has only been for a few weeks but, I am impressed so far. Quality product, great price, and built to order for my specs in quick time.

Definitely not the best way to start a vacation! Glad that everything worked out for you to still go on the cruise.

I try to live by the belief that I’ll learn something new every day and right there it is for today. Thanks for that! Oh and, Happy Birthday @Girldad18!!

Good morning spies. Getting things together here to head to the airport in a few hours to grab a flight from Las Vegas back to Iowa. Still have tomorrow off of work to transition back to my time zone, maybe play a round. Have a great day spies.

Today I would probably go with a full bag of Titleist but a close second would be Callaway. I’ve gotten along with both brands pretty well in the past.

Beautiful sunrise shots!

I do greatly appreciate the insight on that but, unfortunately she’s already 17 so that option will not work for me. I’ve got an older set of graphite shafted clubs that the wife and daughter can share for the time being and we will see how serious that they want to take it first. Daughter is only an inch or so taller than my wife so it should work out.
