    it's always gonna be your short game that shits the bed after a layoff ... my golf-obsessed buddy practices chipping with these wiffle balls ... light round white balls full of holes ... great to practice at home on some carpet ... will save you quite a few strokes on the course ...

    First round in for 2014! Cold and a misty rain, but we got it in.

    Love the RBZ irons. Blasted them all day. Tomorrow is a wash, but back at it Monday.

    Are they still going to televise the masters now that tiger is out?
  • Cliffy6745Cliffy6745 Posts: 33,837
    Damn. Bad news. Reading the US Open could be in doubt too. Clearly a bad situation for his career

    Anyone who watches the Masters for Tiger is not watching the Masters for the right reason

    Masters week

    The kids events today was awesome

    Did I say masters week?
  • Dr. DelightDr. Delight Posts: 11,210
    Just moved down to Myrtle Beach last week. I live in a golf course development. 4 high end courses all around me.

    Will be hitting the range for the first time in 2 and half years this week.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    there is a subtext to this ... as it relates to obesity and diet ... people should watch documentaries on it like "Fed Up" http://fedupmovie.com/

    not to absolve people's decisions completely but people need to understand how nefarious the food industry really is ...

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

    he's saying that about 11 but i think it pretty much sums up the whole course lol

    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.
