Hello and good evening MGS friends! Played 18 today with the mindset balls. I edited my review and you can access it below. Enjoy your evening friends!

 

[Josh Parker]

I put my clubs together today and enjoyed the process. I learned some tricks along the way and will be making a ferrule change to the gamers here shortly. 

[Michael.Sandoval33]

Quick break from 12 hours on the road today, 1 more hour to go. 

.........We were supposed to be gone for 3 hours

Good evening MGS troops! Humpday sucks. Still battling tricare…

My spousal unit had to get involved too…

So we ran over to FE Warren and got POOP done! The nurse wrote a new referral and will engage with the fools at tricare if this doesn’t work. Finally have an advocate in our corner. So that’s that, weather is kinda blah so I didn’t play today. I still need to finish my evaluation on the Bridgestone Mindset balls. They’re awesome for putting. The system stayed in my mind when putting. I didn’t see much gains by using it off the tee because I already do the system. One last thing before I leave you; found a funny today and wanted to share it. Enjoy!!! Have a great evening!

Drove down to Denver for spousal unit’s dr, then hauled butt back.

Just to turn around and do it all over again at 530am tomorrow for imaging.

Hope you all had a great day!

I'm sure it is tiring but I am glad to hear everything is progressing quickly to get your wife the treatment required.

So… another baseball game down. Son homered inside the park.  Should I honor the Homer over the fence or make him wait for the new bat?  Pretty sure the one he has is working just fine… haha

That bomb to center field could have been over the fence with a new bat though...

At least that's the excuse the younger me would be using lol

Long day MGS Troops. We were in Denver till 1, got us home at 3. We left at 5:30 am to get to the 8:30 appointment. Morning traffic in Denver  is horrible. Anyway, the imaging took 2 1/2 hours. We don’t know the results yet so that’s stressful. So the spousal unit told me to go unwind at the golf course. I played 9 and was striping the ball! I just couldn’t focus on putting. It was bad. I couldn’t get in the right mindset. On another note I did test the Bridgestone Mindset again. This is my review so far.

Hope you all had a great day.

After the long day I would imagine focus for putting would be difficult at best, let alone the issue which is at the fore front of your thoughts. Prayers for positive results from the imaging.

Good Evening MGS Troops! How’s everyone? I played another 9 today with the Mindset ball.

I also walked in preparation for my testing of the Motocaddy. It still hasn’t arrived yet. So now I’m just chilling. I came across this and thought of the spousal unit.

Kinda me. So that’s that. I hit some great shots today, had a good time.

I did have a 300 yarder today so I guess I had a miracle. Hope you all have a great evening!

What an eventful day it was. 

Good news: Spent the day in the city celebrating my wife’s birthday. Hit up some Top Golf, shopped, and some eating. She is now super interested in golf and is wanting a set herself. Very nice! They ended up having a lefty DF3 at Golf Galaxy, which surprised the heck out of me! Rolled it a few times and I probably shouldn’t have… now I want one  

Bad news: We had to get an hour long tow home because our car broke down. Of course the first issue we ever have with it comes one week after we pay it off

Thays quite the adventure!!! Glad she enjoyed her day!!  Sorry about the car. Same thing happened to my wife's car 1 month after payoff/warranty expired.

Greetings MGS!

Played a slow 9 holes today in preparation for going to Bulle Rock tomorrow. Excited for my first round of the season away from Langston GC.

Good evening MGS troops! At the spousal unit’s  group art show. Here are some pics:

We set up some crafting tables and charcuterie table. 

Its for a good cause so what the heck, may as well support.

Have a great evening!

Good evening spies….. If you listen intently, you might be able to hear the whimpering outrage of an old man on the Tex-Mex border. 
   Work wise there was not much theft or damage on the work site. Nothing belonging to “ Those People “ was misappropriated or damaged. 
 However as I was preparing to return to the “  Dark Kingdom “; you-know-who sent me a text including the following pictures. 

The “ Princess of Pain “ informed me that since I couldn’t play golf and might not be able to ever play as often as I had; she was reallocating and reassigning some of my retired golf gear to other functions. The would be “Empress of Everybody”; stated she was starting with this bag that hadn’t seen sunlight since the start of the last millennium. She stated that it will make a nice little yard tool carry-all. The woman has NO clue where we keep or what kind of yard tools we even have. 
  Instead of going directly back to the serfdom of husband hood, I might meander around looking for a Cartel recruitment center and see if the elderly can enlist. 
   Enjoy the rest of your evening my spies. You might want to at least consider hiding your golf gear. You know; just in case

What....at least it's a decent water logo.  It doesn't deserve lawn tools.

My deepest sympathies for you!

Maybe use the argument that it already carries lawn tools…irons and wedges do wonders to remove weeds!

Thank you for the concern and suggestion. I had been feeling rather grownup about making the “ painful “ decision of passing on getting one of the Ghost Bags  because of the uncertainty of my playing status. I am NOW so glad I passed on the bag. Can you imagine the horror of coming home and finding that the “ Decorating Duchess “ had turned the Ghost  Bag into a planter!!

I'm going with what @TJ Hall said, it already carries wedges and irons.

It would be one of the best looking planters…but still terrible!

Still windy and poopy outside. Good evening MGS Troops! Hope all is well. Got a lot of work done today so that’s good.

How'd you all do? Maybe I can get out and golf a little tomorrow. Los poopies have been driving us nuts. Brun-nasty has been farting up a storm too. Lucy keeps chasing him around and that makes him fart more!

The other dogs are just watching and wondering why. There you go, my evening. Have a great evening!

Snagged a diamond plate toolbox for the pickup today after playing 27 holes,  for $40. No keys, shocks blown, cross lock bar missing,  and filthy insides.  But no dents or twisting. Ordered 2 shocks for 8.99, looked up the key code off the lock, and grabbed the jar of lost keys. Had 2 that fit it! Worked the lock with some penetrative oil until it moved freely. Simple green and dawn soap cleaned up the insides nicely (with some bristle brushes and elbow grease) found a piece of 1/4 " rod, drilled the end, bent it on the vice and bam! Cross latch works again. Picked up a roll of sticky door draft sponge and lined the tip. Also ordered the locking clamps for the bed.  Now all I need is a stretch of rubber mat to trim for the bottom and edge wells.

Also smoked some chicken breasts for dinner.
