Popular Post GolfSpy_APH Posted February 7 Popular Post Share Posted February 7 Good Morning all! Much like most of you I check the forum while having my morning breakfast along with coffee... And in between feeding the dogs, unloading the dishwasher, making the kid his breakfast and whatever else needs to be done. So my morning check in on the forum is a nice breather. Purpose of this thread? Well for me it's a way to say good morning to all of you, send a update on what's to come for the day and enjoy some of the more human type discussion we have here that doesn't always revolve around golf. It's a pretty relaxed day here. About 5 or so hours of work (non forum) to do later in the day. Plan to get to the pro shop to maybe hit some of the new clubs, take the dogs for a walk and have various forum stuff to look after. Sun is shining, coffee number 3 is being poured so it is s good start to the day!

tony@CIC Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 2nd cup of coffee here. Just put the dog out for the second time, and double checked that everything was on the golf cart for my wife's member-member golf event this morning. Note; she's not a morning person and has to be at the pro shop by 8:15.

Popular Post Jnoble89 Posted February 7 Popular Post Share Posted February 7 Not a coffee drinker, but been at work since about 6am. Getting my first break in the action for today. Later on the schedule is a planned visit to the local middle school to speak to 7th grade health classes about chronic diseases and health conditions and help to educate about making healthier food choices. I'll be leading an activity that uses Crisco and sugar cubes as a visual representation of how much sugar and fat are in popular fast food menu items.

Popular Post Lacassem Posted February 7 Popular Post Share Posted February 7 We are 3 hours into the morning here. Got my workout in at 5 and when finished getting ready for work got my coffee and breakfast shake made, kids fed and out the door waiting on the school bus now with my son listening to a little Joe Rogan while we wait. Quiet work day hopefully after a weekend of frozen sprinkler head issues from the cold (not to bad relative to what the temp was).

Popular Post BIG STU Posted February 7 Popular Post Share Posted February 7 Well it is a little nippy here. Got the wood stove fired up. Been using it all this year. Helps with the arthuritus in my back and sholder. Even retired old habits are hard to break. I am usually up by 4 AM. My coffee maker is set at 3:30 so it is ready when I get up. As SOP for me I watch Jimmy Swaggart classic crusades then the local news at 5:30 while I am on here. On my 4th cup which is SOP for me. Supposed to be around 70 here today so i will go out and either play or hit balls depends on how many snowbirds are here and if it is still CPO or not. cksurfdude, sirchunksalot, xOldBenKenobiX and 7 others 10 Quote Driver ---- Callaway Big Bertha Alpha Speeder 565 R flex- 5W TM V-Steel Fubuki 60r--- 7W TM V-Steel UST Pro Force Gold 65R----- 9 W TM V Steel TM MAS stiff---- Irons 2015 TM TP CB Steel Fiber 95 R--- GW Callaway Mack Daddy 2 52* shaft unknown junk pile refugee.

David Leighton Reid Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 After eliminating coffee for 1.5 years due to some stomach issues, my doctor gave me the thumbs up for a cup of coffee each morning. I thoroughly enjoy my 1 cup in the morning with a Nature Valley Sweet and Salty Almond bar. Then it is water all day and maybe a Diet Coke with supper. cksurfdude, sirchunksalot, GolfSpy_APH and 6 others 9 Quote Ping G425 Max 9° w/UST MP5 L-Flex PXG Gen 5 0311XF 8° w/Grafalloy ProLaunch 45 A-Flex Ping G410 3 wood 14.5° w/Ventus Velocore Blue-6R tipped 1" Cleveland Halo Launcher 5 wood 18° with Project X Cypher R Callaway Rogue 19° hybrid regular PXG Gen 3 0311XF 5 - G steel regular Corey Paul wedges bent to 53° and 58° Taylormade Spider X putter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jnoble89 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I am by and large a water drinker as well. I do not, however, go all day without caffeine as I KNOW I would not survive my wife and I drink a carbonated beverage called Bubbl'r that is only 5 calories and 8 carbs, zero sugar. It's got 69 mg of caffeine. I don't dislike coffee, fwiw, but just have never been a coffee drinker. xOldBenKenobiX, David Leighton Reid, ejgaudette and 5 others 8 Quote Driver: TSi3 9* Fujikura Ventus TR Blue 6X Fairways: Aerojet Max 3W & 7W MCA Kai'Li White 60 Stiff Hybrid: King TEC 3H MCA MMT 85g Stiff Irons: Aerojet 6-GW KBS $-taper Lite Stiff Wedges: Snakebite Black 52/56/60 Hi-Rev 2.0 Black Stiff Putter: Super Select Newport 2.0 Ball: Tour X & ProV1x #LeftyGang Cobra 50th Anniversary Member Special Challenge (link here) Unofficial FootJoy Hyperflex BOA 2023 Review Unofficial Flightscope Mevo Review Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cnosil Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I have never been a huge coffee drinker and I don’t drink it in the morning. If I am going to drink any it is more of an evening/after dinner beverage. Instead of coffee, I start every day with a talk glass of milk with breakfast and then about an hour later a carbonated beverage; typically Diet Dr. Pepper. Water for the remainder of the day with a second soda depending on my mood. all my work days are typically the same, awake at 6:30, in my home office about 6:50, then I check various overnight work results, check the latest social media posts, and plan my day. Work day ends at 3:30 and during most wanted season I head to HQ for a 4:00 testing session (can be 1-4 days a week, I don’t go on Fridays). Tomorrow will be different, getting up to go visit my daughter at school since she isn’t available for the schools parents weekend due to required clinical shifts. tony@CIC, EasyPutter, David Leighton Reid and 5 others 8 Quote Driver: G400 Max 9* w/ KBS Tour Driven Fairway: TS3 15* w/Project X Hzardous Smoke Hybrids: 915H 21* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype 915H 24* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype Irons: TR20V 6-11 w/Vizard TR20-85 Graphite Wedge: 54/12D, 60/8M w/:Accra iWedge 90 Graphite Putter: TM-180 Testing: Backups: Milled Collection RSX 2, mFGP2, Futura 5W Member: MGS Hitsquad since 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GolfSpy BOS Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 morning everyone! I can barely function on 2 pots of coffee.... let alone cups. Got to start getting myself up a little earlier in the AM for a workout. I always feel better after that, I just lack proper motivation to get my rear out of bed in the AM. ejgaudette, GolfSpy_APH, tony@CIC and 7 others 9 1 Quote Epic Max LS 10.5 - Motore X F3 6X | Speedzone 5-wood - Ventus Blue 8S | TSi3 20* Hybrid - KBS Proto 85S SMS Pro 4-PW - Steelfiber i110S | MG3 Raw Black 50.09, 54.11, 58.11 - DG TI S200 ER2B | Pro V1x | NX9 Slope | Jones Trouper R | CaddyLite EZ v8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny B Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I always wake up around 5am, give or take 15 minutes... habit from working for 50 years. I lay in bed for several minutes happy that I woke up... deciding if I should get up. I have to pee so I do. My wife has started coffee, and I have 2 cups each morning. I used to drink it black, but some time ago we started adding Baileys to it. That got expensive when I retired, so searched for an alternative... tried them all; the best is Kirkland Irish Cream. While having coffee I check MGS and decide the Plan for the Day. Today is at least 2 hours of short game practice; 50º but wind picks up to 20-25mph by noon. Honey-do's in the afternoon.
