I understand that Tot Hill Farm had really deteriorated and they had a massive restoration project to get it back to the way Mike Strantz built it. Among other things, they removed like 1200 trees. Not sure I'm up to playing a Strantz course, but maybe I'll try Tot Hill or True Blue or something. William P, Rickp, sirchunksalot and 7 others 10 Quote Obsessed with chasing the dimpled orb.

Popular Post cksurfdude Posted October 19 Popular Post Share Posted October 19 (edited) Good weekend Morning Golf Spies!! Clear and chilly here, still only 45, but warming up quickly. Had some good range time yesterday with the Newton Motion driver shafts. May do a little this afternoon, too, and then play tomorrow. So on the way home yesterday heard a fun thing on the radio - for any Simpsons fans, Hank Azaria .. the voice of Professor Frink, Chief Wiggum, Comic Book Guy, Moe the bartender and several others .. started a Springsteen tribute band - the hook here is he sings Bruce songs in each of the Simpsons characters!

Popular Post MattWillGolf Posted October 19 Popular Post Share Posted October 19 Good morning Spies, Uppa with a cuppa on a crisp Saturday morning in Central NY. Our 10+ year old washing machine needs a part that is no longer available. The new washing machine delivers on Tuesday. Our dish washer that intermittently doesn’t work is still limping along. I’ve been getting a monthly email from Sears Appliance Repair that the part is still on back order. The joys of home ownership. The garage entrance door is getting replaced today.

Popular Post BIG STU Posted October 19 Popular Post Share Posted October 19 1 hour ago, ILMgolfnut said: Correct. Many flu vaccines in particular are made using eggs. The egg proteins are removed during the purification process, but they still recommend you avoid those types of flu shots if you have an egg allergy. Yellow fever and Q fever vaccines are also prepared using eggs. Yellow fever vaccine is particularly likely to have remaining egg protein. Good morning Spies. Awoke this morning to find a puddle in the bathroom floor; the toilet tank is leaking. Already submitted a maintenance request to the landlord, although I doubt it will be repaired before I leave for Charlotte tomorrow. I'll just turn off the water and use the second bathroom. Could I fix it myself? I could if I had the proper tools, but I don't; they disappeared in one of my innumerable moves and I've never replaced them. Don't really want to bother with it either, to be honest. I put the Newton 2-dot shaft into my Mizuno driver head last night. Looks nice! Now all I need is a grip, and that is waiting for me at Dick's in Charlotte. From there I'll probably go to First Tee and try it out. Thank you for the information on the Vaccines. I had been told that by the old Navy Doc years ago. LOL yesterday I was in Kroger and of course this time of year they are promoting Flu shots. I told the one lady that my wife worked in that store for 13 years and retired from there. I told her if you think I am going to let a Kroger employee jab me with a needle she must be smoking some good stuff. She had the patented (for this area anyhow) Deer in the headlights look.

Popular Post Cfhandyman Posted October 19 Popular Post Share Posted October 19 A fine good morning to everyone. Enjoying my morning espresso, trying to recover from the frustrations of yesterday’s round. It was so incredibly and agonizingly slow. Frost delay contributed to this, so I knew it was going to be slow before I started. After the first hole, I already knew this was going to be a 5 hour plus round. And it only got worse. After 2.5 + hours to play the front nine, there were already two groups waiting on the 10th. That was the final straw, and I walked off the course. Two of my playing partners did the same. At least they had the smarts to get a rain check for 9 holes. I was too pissed off to care. Sorry for the rant, but I would rather play in 3-5*C (mid 30’s F) weather than play another 5 + hour round.

I told her that I had my 6 months checkup the week before and played Golf the day before with my Doc and his son. She could not grasp it and I finally hung up and blocked that number.

Popular Post fixyurdivot Posted October 19 Popular Post Share Posted October 19 Top of the pot spies . Someone flipped the proverbial switch on temperature here in the Valley of the Sun. This morning has us grabbing light long sleeve pullovers. With all four of our courses down for overseed, a few of us played Trail Ridge at Sun City West yesterday. It was cool but got even cooler as the wind went from 3 to 30+ mph by hole #5. And, naturally, the return leg of the front nine was straight into the wind. When we got to #11, the wind had shifted 90 degrees and we played another 5 holes straight into it . Nothing like watching a purred 7i for a 138 yard, playing 150+, heading right at the flag, get shoved backwards into the front trap. We swore it spent a brief moment directly above the hole . Balls oscillating on the green and trying to factor wind on putts is interesting. We're curious to see what the GHIN's PCC adjustment will be. Sadly, my round started birdie/par/par/par/bogey before the golfing witch showed up. Not much planned today except River's walk and a workout. Have a great start to the weekend all! cksurfdude, Byrnzee, Cfhandyman and 9 others 12 Quote G410 Plus, 9 Degree Driver G400 SFT, 16 Degree 3w G400 SFT, 19 Degree 5w ZX5 Irons 4-AW Glide 2.0 56 Degree SW (removed from double secret probation ) ER5v Putter (Official Review) AI-One Milled Seven T CH (Official Review) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post sirchunksalot Posted October 19 Popular Post Share Posted October 19 The new oven arrived earlier than I expected and was installed quickly and I can't say enough good about the guys that delivered it. I had a slight issue getting the power cord underneath the stove as the opening in the back is much smaller than the one on my old oven. My wife woke up to help me out and she's excited about it and I was joking that she could cook me breakfast. Carefully joking, I will add. I've learned over the years that marrying a woman who grew up in a trailer park outside Chicago can be dangerous and she has sharp kitchen knives. She is one of the most kind, caring people I know but not after getting 4 hours of sleep and I try not to make any sudden movements and startle her.

Popular Post William P Posted October 19 Popular Post Share Posted October 19 Good Saturday morning Spies! Coffee is going down nicely as I sit on the back porch with SWMBO enjoying the cool, brisk start to the day. Weather has been exceedingly pleasant the last few days and it appears it will stay that way for a while now. @Northern Monkey hope Bluebear is at home now and you are getting reacquainted. @Byrnzee enjoy the golf today and the remainder of the trip. Love the ball marker, makes me think of @Erin B if you added the hat and mustache... @sirchunksalot and @Josh Parker I can certainly attest to the enthusiasm of spousal attitude from time to time having married a Kansas farm girl, born and raised, of German descent. It can be quite interesting and colorful to say the least, but I wouldn't change a thing. 100% agree with all, it is time for the political commercials and signage to end but will only be worse for the remaining weeks.

Popular Post EasyPutter Posted October 19 Popular Post Share Posted October 19 Good morning MGSpies on a quiet peaceful Saturday with sunshine streaming in the front windows and Sumatra coffee in the mug here at EP HQ in WNY. Great read catching up on the last 24 and so much to comment on, wish my brain held onto things better and this is page 1030 of TGMT already! Nice new range Jason @sirchunksalot and trust you will survive the day Good to hear heat has broken both east coast @Rickp and western desert @fixyurdivot though the winds can be troublesome in so many ways. Those flu shots @BIG STU and @ILMgolfnut used to get me with mandatory sticks in my National Guard days, could predict what day I came down with the flu after, and had one medic who would tell me I wouldn't feel it as he was putting the needle in the sharps container having already done it... I never did feel a jab from him, and first 2 COVID shots were bad in the first 12 hours that did not stop me getting it months later. SWMBO still pushes for them, I tend to "forget" but after all the stuff the Army poked me with over 30 years, I figure my immune system is adept at killing everything except myself, even got 3 of the Anthrax boosters before they stopped that project. Love the ball mark @Byrnzee and that looks like an iconic one for your game. Take a photo and make it part of your signature, calling card, or whatever! Temps are going up around this patch of God's green Earth this week so might have more company on the course. No word yet on how the last HOPE sessions are being done to finished the program at CC of Buffalo but Veteran Curling starts up at the Buffalo Curling Club tomorrow so that goes back into the exercise mix. Weekends are for home and occasionally golf and hoping to get in a round with good friends with last round played early August, season now is numbered more in days than weeks so doing my best to keep on the course as long as possible.

Haha. I'm married to a half Spanish lady and the attitude can be real at times. Haha. Oh man, you were treading on some dangerous ground there. I once worked with this lady from Cuba who made her husband use the bathroom sitting down. It was one of the crazier things I've ever heard.

Popular Post Rob Person Posted October 19 Popular Post Share Posted October 19 Good morning spies! With the waning of the full moon, I'm hoping the shenanigans of the illicit and illegal type wane as well. It's been a doozy of a day already. Come on Monday!

Popular Post RichL85 Posted October 19 Popular Post Share Posted October 19 1 hour ago, sirchunksalot said: My wife woke up to help me out and she's excited about it and I was joking that she could cook me breakfast. Carefully joking, I will add. I've learned over the years that marrying a woman who grew up in a trailer park outside Chicago can be dangerous and she has sharp kitchen knives. She is one of the most kind, caring people I know but not after getting 4 hours of sleep and I try not to make any sudden movements and startle her. I married a southern redhead with a bit of a Napoleon complex due to her height. Not to mention she went to culinary school so she really knows how to use the knives. I understand your caution all too well. Imagine her current mood when our 10 year old daughter is only 2 inches away from catching up and already wearing her shoes as well. I've learned no sudden moves or demanding requests unless a minimum of 7 hours of sleep was met and that she has been sufficiently caffinated. If those two conditions aren't met, don't even think of asking for anything. Today is shaping up to be a standard weekend errands day. Swap some books at the library, grocery shopping, etc. I do need to take a look at one of the vehicles again to see if it was just a random issue or if I need to get a new battery because it wouldn't start the other day. It's been having some odd electrical things going on with certain systems. One day the idiotic auto on/off system was deactivated. The last time I started it said the traction system was deactivated but the auto on/off was working again, so who knows. Just haven't felt like messing with it yet.

Popular Post EnderinAZ Posted October 19 Popular Post Share Posted October 19 Good morning spies! It was raining when we got up this morning. A sure indication that fall may actually be starting here in the desert. It will do the course and all of the valley good to see some rain. @Byrnzee That is an excellent marker. I am envious of your trip to Pinehurst! @fixyurdivot In Maricopa county the signs cannot be up past the 20th of November. On the 21st I will be out doing a public service and pulling signs down. I couldn't care less about the signage, I want the rebar for welding projects and art. As of 11/21 the signs are considered abandoned. @ILMgolfnut My latest Samsung/Tmobile phone has a spam blocker that stops all of those text political messages. I suspect you can find something on your phone that will do the same.

Popular Post Northern Monkey Posted October 19 Popular Post Share Posted October 19 Happy Saturday everyone. Late post for me today as been on the road most of the day picking pup up. Thankfully BluBear is now home again and settling back in. Cookie, as predicted, was all over him when he got home and is now laid next to his crate trying to paw him. So sweet to see how much she cares for him. He went nuts when he first saw us and it took a real effort to stop him from hurting himself. This was despite him having being given sedatives by the vet! We’ve got another 6 weeks of crate rest and physio for him yet so still some work ahead. He’s a bit drowsy after the sedatives but the sleep should do him good rkj427, Cfhandyman, Javs and 11 others 4 10 Quote Driver: G430 Max Fairway: LTDx Max 3 wood Hybrid: King Tec 3 hybrid Irons: Forged Tec 4-PW + GW Wedges: Jaws 56 SM9 52 Putter: Mallet Ball: Chrome Soft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a look at the battery terminals especially the ground/-/cathode as when I've had intermittent trouble it's often been a buildup of corrosion that needed a battery brush to clean both the post and the cable clamp. It it's clean then a new battery is likely the repair needed. Rob Person, William P, BIG STU and 7 others 10 Quote Derek Verified Hack, ~25 handicap Golf for exercise and peace of mind.
