Morning Spies. About twenty degrees cooler here today with potential thunderstorms in the forecast. Hanging with the girls for a bit then headed out for a 9:40 tee time at Chaska Town Course. Hopefully the rain holds off.

Have a great day can’t wait to hear how the changes go! Family is always part of my weekend and watching golf is on the menu! Just got the no more kids snip snip and I will be relaxing and warming up a bag of peas while watching Rickie make his come back ! 

Definitely take it easy after the procedure and enjoy watching golf on tv. I hope we see some continued success from Rickie, he seem like a genuinely good guy and is good for the game. 

@rkj427, happy birthday to your wife. I hope y'all have a good day!

GM & Happy Saturday!!  Got up early and took SWMBO to breakfast.  Nice morning so she wanted to walk which we did.  Neighborhood is having a garage sale and and usual my driveway was blocked, never fails.  I think the next time one of these sales happens and people park so my driveway is blocked im going to put a 4sale sign on the car!!

Good morning MGSpies on this overcast Saturday in WNY.  Working in the yard is the event of the day and hoping the light infrequent rains give the chance to get everything done sooner than later.  Golf plans for tomorrow and Monday so trying to get the stage set for enjoyable times later, hope golf is a part of your day today  

Now, tea is usually my weekend fare but coffee is being insistent so attend to it I shall

Absolutely! Redefining sportsmanship to me

Good Morning All, 

No golf today, so for those lucky souls who do get out, play well and have a day! We are spending the day with Kim’s grandparents. They are having a new bed delivered and she has volunteered us to help. Which is cool because they are surrogate grandparents for me, as all of mine have long since passed. A day spent with family is a day well spent. Have a great Saturday folks!

[cksurfdude]

Morning all!

Actually thinking about my evening plans - wife is having a girls night so been helping her set up (extra tables, chairs, move other things out of the way, set up things in the right places, get the coolers out, extra trash and recycle cans, ...) - anyway so I need to get outta here!

Thinking maybe golf store (why not?), movie (Guardians of the Galaxy), gym (not really a night time workout person but maybe a little) then see if a friend can get free after his dinner obligation to meet up for a cold one (or two).

Hope everyone has a fun day .. and evening!!

Good morning MGSpies from a gloomy gonna be inclement weather Friday in WNY with hot coffee  making everything seem just right for the last zero commute day of the week.  Missed the community call yesterday afternoon trying to get everything orchestrated before tee-off that seemed to work as regular partner helped me to see his perspective for my game improvement that is remarkable to him but glacier slow to me.  Golf will be Forum until Monday with the things that must be done, so hoping golf is a part of your day 

Thought of you today. I golfed at Southern Meadows this morning with some friends in a scramble. My first time there. It was great to see that they support Project Hope.

The next PGA HOPE session at Southern Meadows is tomorrow morning at 10am, so I will be there about 24 hours after you!  I have not played the course, only provided assistance to the pros running the program but if you talked to the Head Pro Mike Clawson then we have an acquaintance in common  and I will be working check-in for him as the Vets arrive

I met Mike and his dog.

Good morning Spies on an early Sunday morning here in southeastern Michigan. Weather here for the morning through mid-afternoon looks great, it is later in the day when I have a tee time booked that it starts to get "iffy."

Sunny and partly cloudy now, but a chance of storms rolling through in the late afternoon. I am really hoping that it is more like the evening hours, so I can get golf in today.

I did manage to spend a couple hours at Carl's Golfland yesterday afternoon, both range work, and hitting a few of the new Callaway clubs too.

More on the Callaway clubs I tried in the "What Have You Bought Lately" thread.

Hope your day is the best it possibly can be, and if golfing hit them straight and not too often!

Early morning for me! Kiddo woke up up a couple times with the last being around 5:15. Thankful for strong coffee though. Still trying to recuperate after a wedding Friday night, with it being our first night away in 5+ months.

planning on going to the driving range, if the rain holds off, to get my driver back in line and if the rain doesn’t hold off a quick stop at golf galaxy to window shop is never a bad way to spend the day. 
 

I hope everyone enjoys their Sunday!

[GolfSpy_APH]

Honestly not a very good morning. 

Ivan slept like garbage the last few nights and the curling hall continues to have issues with the refrigeration system. Meaning my fatherhood leave hasn't really been leave as I have been at the hall the last few days working and need to as well today.

However the forum and all here seem to be doing much better which helps!

Have a few rounds of golf booked for next week and hoping my MGS bag shows up Tuesday before my mother arrives from Canada. 

So much going on!

Hopefully it'll all get better for you soon, Jamie. I remember you talking about the problems at work and I hope y'all can get it fixed. 

It's a nice morning here,  I'm just waking up and keeping the animals company sipping on some coffee when they let me. I don't mind, they're my sweet beans.

I've got to run some errands today since it's grocery day. I also need to get my wife to cut my hair, it's getting to where I'm looking like a chia pet. 

I hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Good morning all! Yesterday was a crappy day both weather wise and with work. Today is looking better! Having my coffee and catching up on the site. Hope everyone has a great day!

[Caddie1966]

Morning Spies.  Our ladies member guest wraps up today.  They rightfully had the early tee times wrapped up this weekend so I did not play and won’t today.  We are hitting the 100+ degree mark today as we have the past few and will again every day for the next 7 per current forecasts. Heat index hit 117 and 119 the past two days with humidity in the 55% range making it as hot and humid as it gets here. I have to play early when it gets this way. I hope you all have a great day and play well.

[DoubleBogeyDad]

Morning Spies! Got some much needed rain overnight. A good thunderstorm that had both of our girls up and in our bed. On my second cup of coffee already .

No major plans, if I can carve out a few hours hoping to build a sandbox for the girls under the playset we picked up a couple months ago.

 

[DoubleBogeyDad]

@GolfSpy_APH I feel you there! Even at 3 and 4 our girls will go on runs of sleeping like crap. Everyone in the house feels it.

Hope you get some full nights and find some time on the course to reset. Maybe with the Kid Caddie!

[Rickp]

GM & Happy Sunday!!  Up early took a walk with SWMBO and had breakfast at home.  SWMBO has plans for today but I’m not in the loop hope to be soon.  
Rain was limited to a small storm yesterday we’ll see how it goes this afternoon.   
No golf until tomorrow morning!!!  

[CSiders12]

Good morning and happy Sunday! We got some much needed rain last night which was great, besides the fact that it started pouring while I was at the golf course. Got a little wet, but it was needed so I'll take it. Not much going on today as I will head back to my grandmas house to take care of her. Hoping to finish up some grad school projects and watch the ending of the Traveler's Championship. The weather is supposed to cool off this week, so I'm looking forward to getting out and playing some golf this week. I hope the day is a good one! Cheers!

[EasyPutter]

Good morning MGSpies on a sunny summer weather Sunday morning with coffee in the mug the kids gave me on Fathers Day, a flavor I would not have chosen that's actually very good, though the notes of blueberry are surprising yet complimentary to the coffee itself  arrived at Southern Meadows GC for PGA HOPE session 5 of 6 and nephew's high school graduation party after close to home. Hope golf is a part of your day

[GolfSpy_BEN]

Good Sunday Morning All, 

It’s the last day of our staycation, and the plan to commemorate that was to sneak out and play 18, but my fickle friend Mother Nature has other plans. With Thunderstorms in the forecast, I will have to settle for a virtual round at the golf ranch and some continued testing of Paradym fairways. C’est la vie.

 

Heres hoping a wonderful Sunday funday to all of you!

[Preeway]

Good morning from the Lake of the Ozarks. It’s our annual family getaway/get together and all 19 of us arrived safely. Lots of sun and poolside shenanigans are in store, as well as 36 holes of golf this week. Cheer!

[J7Hawkins]

Good morning all! Yesterday my friends and I played a fairly nice local municipal course which was great... except for the 100* heat and the 4.5 hour round due to the course being backed up. That, and the course didn't have any water stations set up or a beverage cart. Not great! But, we survived and had a great time out playing golf! 

My new utility iron finally came in the mail yesterday, but after I had left for my round so today will be my first opportunity to hit it! I will definitely be posting my thoughts on the Srixon ZX Utility in another thread sometime this week. I'm a bit nervous but excited to move away from a hybrid to a utility iron, but I think the change will be positive as the lower trajectory in the Oklahoma winds should play much better! I hope you all are enjoying a nice weekend! Have a day!

[ParFore74x]

Happy Sunday morning spies. It stormed on and off pretty much all afternoon and evening yesterday for some much needed rain here. Wasn’t motivated to get up early enough for sunrise golf so today will consist of a few projects around the house and then watch some golf while I putt later this afternoon.

Have a wonderful Sunday spies!!

[OdinSnipes414]

Good morning it’s almost Rickie time quietly posting 60 yesterday to sneak close to the leaders should be a fun finnish with the way the morning wave has been scoring watch out for Tom Kim making a play

Hello all, late to the GM thread today as my day started at 4:30 am to get up and help block and split wood with some friends who helped me with a big painting project at the house. Full morning of work but got a lot done and wasn’t too bad. Hoping to sneak a nap in when the kids nap and then see what the afternoon brings!

Hope it brings no rain and lots of epic adventures 

[sirchunksalot]

Good morning everyone! It's an especially early start for me this morning. We had to change the line over the weekend so now we have to make sure it all works before the rest of the shop gets here. 

I'm just glad the storms have blown through and we didn't get the forecasted rain we were supposed to this morning. 

I hope everyone has a great start to your week!

[Triple_Putt]

Morning everyone! Slept terribly, not sure if it was due to the air conditioners or what. Either way drug myself to work, coffee and a donut in the car before heading in. Going to be warm and hazy here today. Hope it’s a great day for everyone
