Have to remember when these are.  Sorry I have participated as yet.

Once you make one or two,  it becomes a habit.   No need to apologize,  just a small group and we get on all kinds of golf related topics and put faces to the names of the people we see on the forum.

^^^^^ This^^^^

Joined for a while today again from work before leaving to the end of the day.

With the Detroit Gran Prix going on this weekend, I work very close to the downtown area, and the traffic and road closures on most of the roads I travel make my 35 mile commute on surface street about a 90 minute adventure.

Also had our IT group enable my laptop camera, so going forward I should also be seen by those others on the call. 

Best part of the calls is mentioned above, putting faces to the names, and interacting with other people with similar interests (golf) globally.

One of these days I'll be at home instead of the office and I'll be able to join with camera, mic, and all lol

[GolfSpy_APH]

We are live!

Note: Short night for me as lots going on, however I will leave the call open for as long as everyone else wants to join in and chat!

I hate that I missed the call, had a tee time after work.

I got stuck on a work conference call. How dare they want to have a teams meeting during work time when I should be on the community call.

I got stuck in one too, they never run long and of all the days today everyone had "one more thing to add"

[GolfSpy_APH]

Not a worry all! Was a quiet smaller group which way nice as I was/am exhausted with my real life work.

Great call with some fun discussion and next week @GolfSpy SAM will be running the call! 

I'll do my best to drop in, but can't make any promises.

[GolfSpy SAM]

Sorry for the delay, but the Link is Live!!!

I had a fun time on the community call today, @GolfSpy SAM did a wonderful job as our conversation leader and it was great just to get to know him better. I've also decided if I ever go into a golf equipment business for myself, I'm going to target him specifically. I'll make a mint.

@GolfSpy_APH, we missed you on the call today and wish you nothing but the best as you're caring for your daughter.

Thanks @GolfSpy SAM for hosting the Community Call today, was great seeing you and @sirchunksalot for a while and Bob R who popped in before I had to drop off to take care of things that need doing before golf kicks in this weekend.  As it was light rain made it fortuitous I was proactive in making the yard pretty for MyGolfSpouse for her weekend.  Just keeping my biggest fan happy who promotes my golfsploits (without a disparaging word or a single eye roll.)

I saw mygolfspouse mentioned on the forum earlier today and thought that would make a good forum in and of itself. It could be a support group for our significant others to talk about how to deal with our craziness.

It was nice to see you too, Derek. I always enjoy the conversations with you.

As great an idea as I think that is Jason, I'm pretty sure all this obsession is a relief to our lovely spouses who know they have nothing to worry about as our addiction centers on a small ball and where it goes.  It frees them to live "ordinary lives" with a spouse who isn't going anywhere untoward with disreputable unsavory types and no chance of being married to "one of those people" and as such, being the social beings women are, I'm quite sure their social groups provide plenty of support for all things, including a husband/significant other who golfs.  In the infamous entry of the Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy, we are "mostly harmless."

I was glad i got back early enough to join in for a bit. I learned that  @GolfSpy SAM is a club marketers dream target! 

[rkj427]

Had to miss the call today due to a work conflict conference call set-up by a customer from 4:00PM - 5:00PM EST. 

Then I had a work function event at 6:00PM closer to work than home, so I just headed there and met those joining me there.

Should be back "on schedule" next week and hoping to join then.

[GolfSpy_APH]

Missed all of you last week and am excited to get this call going again for this week!

Had a great time on the forum community call and it was good to see you back on there Jamie. I'm glad to hear your wife and kids are doing great. I got off the call and was telling my wife about it and had to go on Instagram to let her see a photo of your kids. She said you have beautiful babies. I think there might have been a couple of awwws.

Like Jason said, it was another good meeting! I’m anxious to see what this upcoming testing opportunity is going to be lol. I’m off work next Thursday so I should be able to join in on the conversation a little more.

My turn to miss the call, too many irons in the fire - first one I have missed.  Looking forward to seeing everyone next week!

We missed having you along with us Derek. Life gets busy sometimes and we'll look forward to hearing from you next week. 

[rkj427]

Although I called in from work before leaving for the day, the content while I shared was both relevant and informative to the happenings in some people's personal lives, golf, and the forum.

For me it is easier to stay after normal work hours at work and join, than to try and take the call "hands-free" while driving home.

 

[russtopherb]

Hopefully next time I won’t have people in my office so I can fully join in. 

[GolfSpy BOS]

I'll have to see if I can join in next week from the beach 

Always enjoy getting a chance to talk and hang out.  It's the next best thing to the Pinehurst trip!

[cnosil]

I miss being on the Thursday calls,  hard when I have a league match or am doing most wanted testing.  

[GolfSpy_APH]

Good news is I have another special guest company joining us in July

Hoping to join in a bit!

[GolfSpy_APH]

Thanks all for joining once again! 

Seriously is a highlight for me and enjoy getting a chance to meet and chat with all of you.

[TSauer]

It was nice being able to participate a little more than usual. I wish I had every Thursday off work.

[GolfSpy_BEN]

I enjoyed the conversation. I should be able to participate a bit more next time. I was driving home from work this go round.
