    LASIK....Who's had it? Who wants? Experiences?

    Going on 24 years since I had it done and it was the best money I've ever spent!

    The Car Shopping Thread

    Bought a Certified Preowned 2021 Hyundai Tucson a couple of weeks ago, trading in our 2011 Mazda CX-7 that we used the whole time we lived in Mexico. It is the "value" trim, but has way more options and features than the Mazda. I'm really loving everything about the Hyundai so far!

    Tee up Wedges on Par-3s?

    For a front pin, teeing up a wedge works great for me. I can hit it high and stop the ball where it lands, not worrying about spinning it back off the green.

    What did you shoot today?

    75 with 5 birdies. Scores on the 3 holes where I hit it into greenside bunkers: triple, double, bogey. My bunker game is horrendous...

    Luggage?

    The discount chains often carry a brand called Lucas, and we've had really good experiences with their luggage.

    GHIN 9-Hole Differential

    My wife has never played, but has to get a GHIN handicap to participate in the Sunday Funday, a couples golf outing held regularly in our 55+ community. She's going to need to get in X number of 9-hole rounds in order to establish a handicap (not sure how many at this point). I'll be playing...

    Home Pest Control DIY

    I sprinkled boric acid all around the baseboards in an apartment many years ago. I wound up moving out a month later, so I don't know how effective it was. 2 things we found in Mexico to deter flies were 1) a fly fan, and 2) Sterno with half of a lime suspended over the flame (sometimes with...

    Last club to truly surprise you?

    My M6 3-wood. After my old R7 cracked, I tried so many different 3-woods, but none were as good. Until I found the M6; that's one of my favorite clubs now.

    HIO: How close have you come?

    Only managed 2 in 47+ years of golf. If all the ones that hit the flagstick or hole had dropped, I'd be at about 12. If the hole was as big as a Frisbee, I'd be somewhere north of 25 by now.

    What is your least favorite household chore?

    I don't mind cleaning the kitchen or doing laundry. I hate ALL other household cleaning and try to maintain an unspoken understanding with my wife that I'll do those if she handles the rest. We had the luxury of having a maid (a really good maid) in Mexico; we sure miss her...
