    Paige Spiranac's instagram account is quite enjoyable. 

    And I would gladly play a round of golf with her.  She could probably teach me a thing or two.

    Shot 87 yesterday..good for me...Had a guy ask me to turn down my bluetooth speaker..It wasnt that loud but his green was right by my tee box..I asked him if that was what caused him to be closer to my tee box than his green..he didnt appreciate that comment.. ;)

    Haha. That’s funny as hell. People seem to be getting more uptight these days about music on the course. I don’t get it, but to each their own.

    I’m old school and think there is no place for it on the course. If you need it, use headphones. It’s like the guy talking in the movies, it’s rude.

    I was the same way for a while so I understand both sides. I’ve changed my stance and personally enjoy music while I’m playing. That said, I’m always respectful of those around me and never play music at high volumes. I think blaring music through a sub woofer on the course is ridiculous. On the flip side, I’ve had guys make shitty comments about quietly played music from an I phone when our cart is 50+ feet away. Those are the same guys that proceed to shank one into the next fairway. I always get a kick out of that.

    On a scale of 1-10, I would say I had it at 2...I wouldn't have said a word had the guy not missed his green by 30 yards and said something first..We were polite enough to let him hit his shot before we teed off even though he was right in our line of fire and should have waited til we hit tee shots..I don't play music if its a high end course or a tourney.I can see both sides.

    Bump to the first page. Tiger's playing this week and golf season has officially settled in for most people.

    The good news is that Tiger is continuing to look healthy.  He definitely is in the upper echelon of PGA players right now which is pretty amazing based on his health one year ago. 

    Played golf tonight and fell in love with my 4 iron hybrid.  That just means a club I was hitting well before will not be good this time.

    I really need to start playing. I’ve been buried with work and just not finding the time. I’m going to have to change that soon because golf weather is finally here.

    Same here.  Although I'm guessing most courses in the area are soaked right now with all this rain we've had the past couple days.  Gotta get out there soon...

    Tiger barely on the cut line at the moment.

    This Peterson story is awesome. Needs something like $350k over the next 3 weeks to keep his card.  Said if he doesn't he's leaving pro golf and going into real estate. Much better story to pull for than Poulter and his Ferrari's keeping his card on some math.

    Wow. Crazy story. Hope he makes it in golf rather than getting sucked into a career in real estate (which I am in) lol.  What a drag that would be for him after being so close.

    You’re right. Courses must be swamps at the moment. Or at least I’d like to think they are since I’m not out there.
