Look what my kids did to me last Christmas.

Ouch.

Well, no one in their right mind would do that to themselves.

... Yup, we all know you are a great guy and "right mind" is just some collateral Yellow Ball damage. He has that effect.

Men, gather round, I have an important announcement. 

Since I was not included on the list of attending. We will be forced to stay in golf bag ball pockets once again. Revenge shall be sweet.

Training starts immediately. You have until June to get in shape. We will focus on duck hooks, shanks, slices, and worm burners. No golfer will come out of this outing unscathed. We will rest the first week of June. After that I want everyone in their dress whites. We are to blend in and raise havoc. We will give these guys stories to tell. Do I make myself clear?

... I hate to give you credit Newman Yellow Ball, I really do but that is brilliant stuff and your true colors are showing.

Am I jumping the gun?  Got out my Shotscope and am subscribing to and updating the courses on my H4 device.

Have the courses marked as Favorites in my SwingU app, got some studying to do for prep work.  Never know what watery delights await yellow balls.  [hehe didn't draw attention to @Yellow Ball this time]  [oops]

I haven't done much more than look at the scorecards....par 3s appear to be long.

First lesson of the year yesterday.  A nine hole playing lesson.

Have been in a little bit of funk the last few months for a variety of reasons, but recently I have had flashes of brilliance interspersed with moments of agony.  Sunday was a good example:  5 double bogeys and 4 birdies to shoot 79.  Was either perfect or god awful.

The lesson just pointed out that I was falling back in to some my old tendencies again despite having worked hard to fix.

Would like my game to be in top form for the Pinehurst Trip, so creating a practice plan and will be working towards that goal.

Well we're in for rain all weekend.  With the ground already liquified here looks like I've got another week of wait before my "Pinehurst practice rounds" begin.

If it was my choice right now, I'd give it all to you.  For keeps. 

I just hope we can get some of this rain during the spring/summer this year.

At least it is 72* and sunny here today. But as usual it is a workday. Fri, Sat, and Sun well, you know rain and, in the 50's.  Praying for a rain pattern shift!

Is it too soon to start laying out golf clothes for the outing? Asking for a friend!

Tom, I think the real question is... when are you going to sneak over there in advance of the outing to do "intel" on the course?  Maybe a round with the pro so he can show you all the places "to" and "not to" hit it... haha.

Maybe not too early.   There is the whole wardrobe scripting thing that needs to happen.   Do you want to match someone else or show your own personal style.   I think that comes down to the head to head competitions and will it be team based on individual based.   Lot and lots of planing….I thing we are already behind.

I think many guys know that I play these courses pretty regularly on my yearly (or more often) visits to my place at Talamore.  For the right price, I'd be glad to provide some intel.

I just finished another round of course flyovers. Mid-South is going to be a ball buster. I got to hone my game a little more before I venture over there. Too early in the season to torture myself!

I thought you were already paid off. Didn't you get the Cobalt Q6 bribe.

Way ahead of everyone on the scripting.  Here's day 1...

I make my own beer. Name your style, and I'll bring it!

[JohnSmalls]

I think I may just wear camo on the tee boxes so the people in the next zip code won't see who just missed the fairway by an entire county.
