The Good Morning Thread

[ejgaudette]

Good morning y'all! (I think I am using that right as a yankee)

More beautiful weather on tap this has been a wonderful spring stretch before we get inundated with bugs for about a month or a bit more.

Yard work is getting done with this nice weather including some clean up from trees, leaves, and just general clean up.

Have a great Wednesday everyone!

Good morning MGSpies from 'it's already getting light out and definitely springtime' in WNY on this day before the Community Call, work computer going online and starting the workday from the zero commute to the basement command center.  Got in 9 holes yesterday in sunshine, still Caz park with nice greens as the fairways are far from ready but did run into longtime friend and played 5 holes together before he had to leave.  Rain in the forecast due to arrive soon today and again on Friday so might be taking everyone for a vicarious view on the call tomorrow for the first time this year.  Hope golf is a part of your day

Good morning spies! It is a chilly, windy morning this morning. Winds are supposed to be 20-30 mph all day with no sunshine. We've had such a nice few days recently, so it's going to suck that we are going through a couple of days here that are colder and windy. Hopefully, that all clears up and I can get out and play some golf this weekend!

I hope you all have a happy hump day!

[BLD7]

Good Mormon Spies! Well the rain has moved in and it looks like thunderstorms this afternoon. Guess that means I'll be working instead of playing golf. Today is supposed to be the opening day of our mens league, I doubt that is gonna happen though but I'll wait for the official email stating today is canceled before I get too bummed. Ha. No matter what have an awesome day out there!

[Girldad18]

Good Morning Spies!

Happy Wednesday!  Should be a steady work day which will help the day pass faster.  Supposed to get in the mid 80's here too which is always nice.  Planted a few tomato plants yesterday and mowed a little grass.  Not sure what is in store for me this afternoon, maybe a little swing work?  We will see...

Have a great day everyone!

Good morning Spies! Nice hot cup of apple cinnamon tea hitting the spot this morning. League play starts tonight, very psyched for that! Had a driver lesson yesterday that went extremely well! Busy at work, hope you all have a great day and that golf is part of it!

I get up at 4:30 am everyday. I had a half a can of Celsius and half of a banana (My dog always gets a bite when done doing is business.), worked out with weights, ate a Pure Protein bar and paid some bills. 

Now getting ready to take my dog for a four mile walk then home for a cup of tea and breakfast. 

This is my typical routine, and I throw in a bike ride every now and then, certainly on days I don't do weights (Celsius and protein bar on weights days only).

This is all necessary because I love ice cream and potato chips way too much!

Good Morning Spies, welcome to non frozen weather for most of us LOL. Enjoy the links and have a great day.

Cheers, Hit em straight if you can

Morning All,

 

I’d like to say my day has started well. That would be just wrong though. Normally I’m at work by now. Today I’m sitting in traffic because a semi truck caught fire on the other side of the HRBT. There’s another bridge tunnel I can go get on, if I wasn’t already past that exit and the next I’m nowhere close to. It’s looking like I’m going to be late to work. Thankfully everyone understands that this is out of my control. So no problems there. Hope everyone has a good day. 

[RickM71]

Had some pretty good rain here yesterday. Hoping the course is dry enough as my 11 year old should be having one of her first golf camp sessions today. Looking forward to seeing how the kids progress even moreso than my own game right now.

Happy to meet and greet all you fine golfers. Love the content from the site and forums. Thank you for a great program! 

 

Welcome aboard!!

 

Good morning spies!  On duty next 2 days, and alot going on in that realm. Mostly good, some not, and for those who understand,  you do NOT want to be a "policy maker" these days, as that usually ends with being made an example of what not to do! (Wasn't me, thankfully)

Hope everyone gets out and does something golf related today!

Good morning back!  Welcome aboard

[Cfhandyman]

Good morning to all on a fine but wet Wednesday morning. Forecast is rain, rain and more rain. So no golf today.  As a result, the Espresso machine is working overtime. Plan B is installing some pot lights in the basement or maybe heading to the indoor golf facility.  Liking that much more.  May everyone have a wonderful day. 

Welcome to the forum, @Jazzdrummer420 and @Jessica Adams

Good morning everyone. Weather is making range time very difficult to come by with high winds and thunderstorms. Really need to work my irons as my approach game is killing me lately. Might have to just rely on some net practice in the garage for a few days until I can get outside again. Need to get some more video anyway for my Excellent Adventure with @CFreddie. So much fun following all the testing going on, it's hard to keep up. Very curious to see how the LAB testing plays out. Now my son is talking about being interested in one. He gets his expensive taste from his dad, lol. Hope everyone has a great day ahead.

Happy Hump Day!!!!  My boy scout welded pancake breakfast signs held up to storms and strong winds so far despite being 4'x4' wind sails.  We've sold enough tickets that we'll make a lot of money for the kids to do fun things.  And the coffee is hot.

 

[IndyBonzo]

Good morning!

Welcome @Jazzdrummer420 and @Jessica Adams!  Hope you stick around and love it as so many of us do.

No golf for me for a few days, but had a nice practice session yesterday focusing on approach shots.  Loving the lower swingweight/counterweight in my irons.   It went too well to be trusted.  Need to figure out how to move that to the course.  
 

Wishing you all fantastic days!

Good morning Spies! Work is an afternoon thing today, then drive 90 minutes to the next duty station. Thought about swinging by PGA Tour Superstore before work, but probably not (just discovered that PGATSS is owned by Arthur Blank, the guy who built Home Depot into a giant and owner of the Atlanta Falcons)

Welcome to our own little slice of daily insanity!

Top o' the morn all!
April showers for my area today and tomorrow.  I was able to get some practice in yesterday.

Each day is getting a little bit nicer.

Welcome to the forum! The Good Morning thread is the best place to start your day. So grab a cuppa and dive in with your device of choice.

[jbern]

Good morning! The weather is nice outside right now, but we're supposed to get high winds and rain starting shortly. I was really hoping to get out today and do the Solo Scramble challenge that's in the virtual tour corner of the forum, but I definitely won't have time before the storms. 

Still on quite a high from the LAB test announcement and my smile has been ear to ear! 

Have a good day everyone!

[cksurfdude]

gm all on that middle of the week day!!

So far sun is shining here, tho a bit cooler than yesterday. But hey ya know the weather does what -it- wants

Heading out for another Chiro checkup/adjustment - gotta say between this and acupuncture .. well and yoga & stretching, steady exercise, some of those @GolfSpy_KFT mobility movements, a beer or two on the evenings .. my back is usually doing much better vs past few years! 

And hopefully continued to hold up though the multiple, multi-day golf trips coming up over this season...

Hope everyone else is doing well ... get out there and make it a great (you know what ) day!!

[Dan1993]

Good Morning Spies!

Looking like a beautiful week ahead out in Virginia Beach. Looking forward to some warmer weather after a chilly winter. Unfortunately, work has a way of keeping me off the course. Hate to see it. But Friday I should be playing a little hookie for a 11am tee time.

Enjoy a Fine Day everyone!

[MattWillGolf]

Good morning Spies,

Happy hump day to those who celebrate it. The needed dental work has not dampened my excitement of the L.A.B. Golf test opportunity. Looking forward to this one indeed. I ordered a Ghost Anyday Maverick Black Ops 7-way bag with the forum logo. Felt it was time to represent. I did get out for 9 yesterday. The course is a bit mushy but the greens have improved a lot in a week.

I need to do my first lawn mowing of the season today. Rain is in the forecast so it will be a morning job. I have a 2 mile run on tap today and that may be pushed to the treadmill if the weather predictions hold.

Wishing all a wonderful day!

 

[ILMgolfnut]

Almost forgot, today is our kick-off call with Mike Carroll to finally start the Fit For Golf test. If last night's workout is any indication, it will get me in super shape or kick my butt, or maybe both.

[J7Hawkins]

Morning all! Headed to the range this morning as me and a buddy both took the day off to enjoy some great weather and golf all day! I’m hoping to play 18 this AM, lunch, gym, then 18 again later including the 9 hole Wednesday night men’s group. It’s going to be a fun day! 
on another note, it’s crazy to me that the PGA is following Augusta with a designated Signature event this week at RBC Heritage. Nonetheless, I will happily shut up and watch . I hope everyone is having a good week so far, I know I’m anxious to see who’s reviewing those AutoFlex driver shafts!

Good HumpDay morning MGS troops!

Hows your Wednesday shaking out? Just looked at the weather forecast for this weekend, going to be playing in rain/snow on Friday for VGA, Saturday it’s supposed to snow…

Yep, spring in the Rockies. Sunday is supposed to be back in the 60s. 

Helter Skelter weather and old man winter can’t decide if he’s coming or going. Hope your day is blessed and full of enjoyment. Happy Birdie Hunting!

[Kenny B]

Good Morning everyone!  Hope your Wednesday is off to a wonderful start.  Not much going on here; have a massage, then off to shop for an anniversary gift and make plans for our anniversary dinner (after our round of golf on Sunday, of course!!).  Details of our wedding later this week… don’t miss it!!!

[GolfSpy_KFT]

Good morning fellow spies and happy Wednesday! We got some pretty serious rain and thunderstorms here in the evening yesterday, but it is more than welcomed in my book as we had a relatively dry winter snow wise and need the precipitation. Course is greening up very quickly, and in typical fashion as it is here at my home course we should be looking at mid-summer playing conditions by May. The work the grounds crew does truly is fantastic.

Pretty standard day ahead of me for work, then only one day left this week as I will be off Friday. I have a conference to go to Saturday which is paid attendance for work plus mileage (win!). On my day off I am taking a little trip down to Vortex HQ in Barneveld, WI, to check out their new line of golf rangefinders .  Really looking forward to that and I will try to have some media content to share with you guys both here and on IG, so keep an eye on the forum account as well as my personal IG (@jasonnoble3).

Also for those following my recent development of the shanks, some progress was made last night! Found a drill that will now be a daily ritual of setting a tee just outside the toe and inside the heel of my club and swinging through the gate without hitting either tee. By the end of the night last night I had made very good progress from when I started.
