Kenny B Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 My wife and I played our last round in Scottsdale this morning at McCormick Ranch Palm Course. We got there early to eat breakfast and the pro shop said we could go early if we wanted to get in front of some pros playing a practice round before prequalifying for the Waste Management Phoenix Open. He said it would be slow after them as they take a lot of practice shots. I didn't play very well... 46/42... 88 with 2 triples and 3 doubles; pins were set in difficult positions and slopes were ugly on fast greens. I did get my 2nd birdie of my trip on the par 4 #10. Fun course that would be easier to play the next time. We played by ourselves and didn't see anyone on the course the entire round; played in 3:30 taking some extra shots here and there. Yesterday, my wife and I played with her brother and @fixyurdivot at one of Bill's courses in Sun City Grand... Cimarron. I shot 87... starting off badly with a 48 on the front nine; couldn't get my driver working very well. I turned that around on the back nine and shot 39... pretty happy with that.

But you know how to swim, right? Sorry! ... Well, since you brought it up I think it is finally time we recognized the elephant in the room. With stories like yours is it any wonder Yellow Ball is suffering from DID, Dissociative Identity Disorder? Formerly known as multiple personality disorder or multiple personality syndrome, is a mental disorder characterized by the presence of at least two distinct and relatively enduring personality states. (See photo below) ... The disorder is accompanied by memory gaps of how many times he has been hit and more severe than could be explained by ordinary forgetfulness. Conditions that often occur in those with DID include white/yellow personality disorders (especially borderline and avoidant), 3 putt depression, substance use disorders, eating disorders, obsessive–compulsive hooking disorder, and golf forum accusation disorders. Self-harm, non-epileptic slicing seizures, flashbacks with amnesia concerning OB flashbacks, triple bogie anxiety disorders, and suicidality are also common. This also explains why his favorite comedy is Shutter Island. sirchunksalot, Kenny B and cksurfdude 3 Quote Driver: Qi10 10.5* ... Ventus Red Velocore 5R Fairway: Aerojet 3/5 ...

Popular Post ole gray Posted January 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2023 I shot 81 today in some pretty nasty wet swampy muddy slip down and bust ya arse sucky kind of conditions. My driver was pretty much on sick call today so my new Cleveland CBX Zipcore wedges hopped on a hoss and came to the rescue. These things are awesome off wet mushy turf! The bounce on these puppies is perfectly suited for soft conditions. I'm looking forward to some dry weather if we EVER see it again so I can give these wedges a spin or two in normal conditions. sirchunksalot, ejgaudette, MattF and 7 others 10 Quote Ping G430 Max Driver 10.5 Degree Titleist TSR1 4, 5, & 6 Hybrids Titleist T350 Irons 7 - W48 Cleveland CBX ZipCore 52 56 & 60 Degree Wedges LAB Mezz Max Broomstick Putter / TPT Shaft (Platinum @ 45/78) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was one of the courses that I could actually hit pitch shots decently because the grass was nice; even the dormant bermuda (or maybe I just figured it out now that I left). Bunkers were decent, but parts of the course were still a little wet from the last rain. On one hole we had to look hard for my wife's Yellow Ball that found it's way into one of the many puddles in the fairway. Fortunately, he was saved... for a couple more holes when she sent him swimming. We played for $129 which was a little steeper than many of the courses we played, but it was one we hadn't played before so wanted to give it a try. I think the prices are going up already for the WMPO and SB. sirchunksalot, cksurfdude, Rickp and 1 other 4 Quote “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you’re in New Zealand, but yeah, it’s the same down here in coastal Carolina. So many holes with water hazards and forced carries over environmental areas or swamplands. When I’m up on Long Island though I can sometimes go a few rounds with the same ball, as I play mostly parkland style courses, where unless you hit one deep into trees, you can almost always find it and have some type of shot.

funkyjudge Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 (edited) Weather forecast was way off-base for today (we had our first measurable snow of the season and the temperatures never got to 40*, although the forecast called for mostly sunny and temperatures in the mid-40s). Because of that, I played 18 holes on the simulator, following all rules of golf (no “gummies”, mulligans, etc and no free drops — all penalties were taken). I shot 39 on the back nine of Casa de Campo (“Teeth of the Dog”), and 40 on the back nine of Pinehurst No. 2, with two putts that hit the center of the cup at a speed that should have resulted in hole-outs, but both putts bounced out. It’s not real golf, but, coupled with the 37 that I shot outdoors yesterday, I am hoping that the swings I took and ball flights that I saw on the simulator today have me prepared for my winter golf tour event tomorrow morning — tee times changed to a 10 AM shotgun start because it’s supposed to be 31* between 8:00-9:00. Long underwear and hand warmers plus walking the course to stay warm are on the menu for me for sure! Speaking of the tour event tomorrow, even with the delayed start, I will need to be up between 5:30-6:00, so it’s time to get ready for bed.
