    I pulled the "work from home" thing first Thursday of the NCAA tourney...I said "fuck it" this Thursday and bagged the whole day.

    Hit the driving range today to get the feeling back. Hit better than I thougt I would with my long irons, and worse than I thought I would with my woods. I think it's time I upgrade my woods.

    Im busy this weekend so I won't be watching the Masters (maybe Sunday if I get back early) but I will be checking on Thurs/Friday. :)

    As excited as I am for the Masters, the lack of TV coverage is ridiculous. I know they have offered a little more in recent years with some stuff online, but the fact that so much is missed those first 2 days is brutal.

    Will be hitting the range for the first time in 2 and half years this week.

    Luke Donald's grounding penalty in the sand trap was found out because some fans ratted him out ... and the "grounding" penalty was because he smacked the sand in anger with his club when his first shot didn't make it out. Is that really the intent of the rule? Don't you have to be addressing the ball?

    your club can never touch the sand unless you are making a stroke otherwise it's a penalty

    Could be a really weird weekend without Phil or Tiger. That said, a lot of good players in the mix but Bubba is trying to run away with the thing.

    I missed this, but good. Like I used to tell the idiot I played with a while back who threw his clubs. "What did the club do? Throw yourself." "Luke, what did the sand do?"
