Popular Post GolfSpy AFG Posted September 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 17, 2020 Hey, probably unnecessary, but I want to extend a quick apology and explanation to the community. I've been a lot less active for the past couple of weeks than I was for the bulk of the summer, and I want to make sure I don't give anyone the impression I took my test Honma driver and ran. I'm assigned to USSTRATCOM, and no phones are allow in the building (classified stuff going on) and a lot of websites are firewalled from the work computer, including MGS. Over the summer i was temporarily assigned to a training course that went 100% online due to COVID, so i got to spend a lot of time at home and was then able to get on the forums a ton. With no access during the day, I get home to 3 little kids and those "demands" and suddenly I am dead tired and i haven't gotten on here. Sorry about that. I'm still around, still lurking, still posting a little bit, and still loving the community, and I'll step my game up. My club championship is this Saturday, after which i launch my offseason training plans that I'll document here. Again, maybe an unnecessary post, but i REALLY don't want to risk the impression that I took a test club and ran.

MyWifesSwingCoach Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I once asked my old man if he had the chance to restore something he wanted (because he is a workaholic and always wrenching on something), and he told me he would build an old Chevy II. I am a big fan of the coupe but as it turns out, it was also available in a wagon. How does this suit your eye @Shankster?
