gm all!

Ya know... In a funny confidence, there's a Par 3 that I habitually mess up the tee shots on - I'm too often either wide right in trouble, or wider (haha) left in trouble. So you can see either way I'm in trouble ... 🤪

..so what I've been thinking is to try that "old fart" strategy! .. ie. kind of a low-running punch shot with the Cleveland Hy-Wood maybe..? Gotta test it out on the range!

It works trust me. I have resorted to it because our greens are now sparse and as hard as the parking lot

Good morning all!

Two more days of work and then vacation!  While I won't be golfing (This cruise ship does not have a golf course on it, bummer I know) I am very much looking forward to some time off to relax with Mrs. BOS.  

Just need to get through this pesky forecast first.

GM and good night.  Was awoken @ 4:30am by a Emergency Alert Test.  C’mon man (😁) 4:30am couldn’t they do this Test @ maybe noon?  
Anyway good morning I’ve got shrubs to trim later so I have to wait until the sun burns off morning dee.

That's insane! I don't think I'd be too happy about being woke up by an emergency alert that early.

💯 That was garbage sending that out at 430 this morning! Totally agree... At least it got me up for coffee before playing a round today. Get them shrubs done! 

Hit 'em long!

Good morning everyone! I'm sitting in the car, drinking coffee, and browsing the forum this morning. I'm looking forward to the community call this evening, it's just always a good time. 

It's a beautiful morning with clear skies and slightly cool temperatures. Saw the Garsen Grip test opportunity drop and will be looking forward to it because I've heard about them, but until this morning didn't know what they're about. Kudos to the mods for continuing to secure such great tests for the community. 

I hope you all have a wonderful day. 

Ooooof 4:30???

Jason I think you win the early bird award every morning.  I've had work get in the way for the community calls lately, but I may just have to schedule a conference call for that time here soon 😁.

The bad days make the golf days even more enjoyable.  Go get it, hope today is a better one!

Rick they probably set it up so early so that they can prove the effective range.  No one calls and complains about the alarm at noon 😜

Probably True!!

I have gone to turning on the Do Not Disturb feature on my phone, and while it will not stop an Emergency Test Alert it does stop notifications that my Netflix account has been suspended because yada yada yada, when I never had a Netflix account...  scammers.

Good morning Spies 

Had my coffee driving in to Worcester at 6:30 for my duty at the District Court. Looks like a nice sunny day on tap. Can't believe Civic Duty is keeping me from my spy duty at a fairway to green 🤣

Good morning

It's supposed to be great here today.  Gotta take my shaggy over due pup to groomer so I'll probably only get 9 in while he's there.  Hopefully back to 18 holes tomorrow!

Have a terrific day Spies!

GM fellow spies! Big thunderstorm rolled through last night knocking out all the remaining snow which is welcome news! Also with all the moisture, the course looks absolutely incredible right now. Mid summer green grass and it’s only April 😍. Not so welcome news is lower temps through the next week but should be dry. If we can get to mid 50s next week I will try to get on the range at the very least. Full day of work today then half day tomorrow until the weekend where we are celebrating our oldest son’s birthday (6) a few days early. 
 

Looking forward to jumping on the community call at 4pm EST as @sirchunksalot mentioned. I will be a bit late to the party potentially but still getting on there. If you haven’t checked it out yet, definitely give it a shot! It’s a great time every week and nice to put names/voices to usernames on the forum. Linked below for an easy way to find it this afternoon!
 

 

Already on my calendar! Looking forward to it!

Ir also works if swing speed is low and/or can't control the ball spin; doesn't spin when you want it and spins when you want it to rollout.  Just need opening into green without bunkers.

GM, up at usual time and starting my first cup of coffee.  I have a dentist appointment at 7am.  Great way to start my day!  Good news is that it's close to the golf course, so I can stop there afterwards.
