Getoffmylawn 2,049 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 So my neighbor popped positive for COVID yesterday. I'm fine and showing no symptoms at all, but because I had contact with him the Air Force still has me on restricted movement (can't leave the house) until the 16th, at which point I get tested and if that comes back negative then I go back to work and life as normal. Til then, telework, kids staying at home and home schooling, etc. I've got enough home gym stuff to stick with my Bryson experiment, but we're running out of warm weather here and I had 3 tee times in the next week that are out the window now. I know in the big COVID scheme there are far more important things than golf, but damn I really was looking forward to playing... Don't tell me you wouldn't think "what about golf" too! 5 4 Quote Driver: TR20 460, Vizard 60g Stiff FW: CBX 119 3w, 15, Project X Evenflow Blue 75g Stiff Hybrids: TS3 3 & 4H, Project X Evenflow Blue 85g Stiff Driving Iron: MP-20 HMB 3i, UST Mamiya recoil ES 780 F3 Iron: JPX 919 Forged 4- GW, Project X 6.0 Wedges:SM7 54 S Grind, 58 M Grind Putter: ER2B Tested the Honma TR20 460 driver Link to post Share on other sites

I'm just required to notify the base medical group of any contact, and they typically get hyper-conservative and require you to isolate and telework for a 14 day period.

Don't want to use glow in the dark balls, looking for a better solution. I have a pair of special blue lens sunglasses that make everything white glow and stand out when looking for a lost ball. They work great. I've never worn them to try to see a ball in flight, but they will help you find your ball on the ground. 5 Quote King Cobra F8 driver Serene: 3 and 5 wood, 5 hybrid iron r7 Draw, Flex L: 4 - 9 irons, PW RTX-3: 52/10 wedge; 56/11 wedge; and Tour Action 900 60* low bounce E-2 Torque custom fit putter Tour B RXS golf ball V3 Link to post Share on other sites

fixyurdivot 8,443 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 My wife and I just finished the Netflix Longmire series and really enjoyed it. Prior to that we watched The Crown and found that series very well written/acted too. We had started watching Yellowstone after The Crown, but the pilot started out a bit bloody/gory so we started Longmire. Several have told us to give Yellowstone another try; that it isn't too blood & guts and they really liked it. Our younger neighbors said to give The Office a try and we did, but it just never clicked for us... probably an age thing. Anyway, we're in the market for a good drama series and welcome any suggestions. 3 Quote G410 Plus, 9 Degree Driver | Official 2019 MGS Tester G400 SFT, 16 Degree 3w G400 SFT, 19 Degree 5w G410 Irons 4-UW Glide 2.0 56 Degree SW (removed from double secret probation ) B61 Putter Link to post Share on other sites
