    Have you ever played golf barefoot?

    Yes. Many times. At least two or three times in Hawaii because almost everyone did. At least a Wailua on Kauai at the time. It seemed to make me take a more balanced swing. Even felt like more grip than ‘spikeless’ shoes- especially in damp conditions. Gotta be the right course though. Some...

    Tour Event 2026 ANWA

    Yeah, they looked ‘similar’, but fairways and tees looked ‘faded’ or something

    Tour Event 2026 ANWA

    Just watching some of the Augusta National Woman’s Amateur. Something is off. It NO WAY looks as green as The Masters appears on TV. Either they paint the grass for next week, or they do some color tweaking on the coverage.

    Could you and Can you still Dunk?

    Yes. I was a high jumper in HS, and regularly trained by dunking. But NEVER while the Bball coach was around. No interest in the game and didn’t want to deal with the hassle. These days, closest I get is going to Dunkin for donuts

    How Much???

    As mentioned, I’m looking for the ‘travel cover’ type that comes with bags. I have the clear rain thing.

    How Much???

    Unfortunately, here in metro NY (Queens), it is EXTREMELY rare to find any golf related anything.

    How Much???

    I don’t need a “rain cover” thing, I have one of those clear elastic things for that. I need that cheap cover that comes with every bag I’ve ever purchased. But not for 20-30 bucks

    How Much???

    Jeez… How MUCH? I guess I got all worked up, I can’t type

    How Much???

    I’m sticking this here since I’m not sure which category it fits since it isn’t trolleys or clubs… if it gets moved, so be it. Anyway, I need a new hood for my golf bag. All the extras from older bags have either disappeared or blew away out the back of the cart. Since every bag seems to come...

    Gas Prices: What are you paying?

    On this trip to Florida and back, anywhere from $1.89 at Buc-ees to 3.50 at a random BP in Florida. On that… if you’re looking for a particular brand and the exit only shows THAT brand, Don’t stop. Obviously they have no competition there and jack up the price. Once we got to Satellite Beach...

    Have you ever served jury duty?

    Exactly. In my NYC stint, we had nearly 600 cases (I was secretary), only 2 were rejected. One was clearly entrapment, the other was very poorly presented by prosecution with conflicting testimony from officers involved.

    Have you ever served jury duty?

    Been called a few times, picked for one. Settled/Plea while we waited in Jury room. Also served on a Grand Jury here in NYC. 4 weeks, Unless you had a previous trip planned WITH proof (you WILL get a later date), physically unable to serve, or dead- with proof, you are not getting out of it...

    Winter Storm Memories

    ‘96 in NYC. Friends got married that day (Sunday) on 57th st. No snow when ceremony started, when we left, full on snowstorm. Couple rode a horse drawn carriage down to wall st. area. We drove down (6 people in a Ford Escort) and found a garage. Reception was gang busters and went on until 11pm...

    What do you think is the biggest myth in golf?

    That everyone should finish in under two hours because you want to get to back to the all you can eat Breakfast buffet.

    Golf only membership...

    Jeez, in a 'Metro' area? No Brainer. but, btw, is this a "Private" club or a 'semi-private' facility? Only downside, I can see, is the winters in Detroit can be from October to April. :p Could be 5 months of idleness. But even at that, 200 and a bit a month is a steal. Here in NYC area, you...

    What do you do with your phone on the course?

    Leave it the car 99% of the time. Wife knows where I am, if it’s an emergency, they’ll And most times people think something is an emergency but isn’t. “Bring home whatever” is something that I can’t do anything about until I’m done anyway.

    Have you ever gotten paired with a pro athlete or celebrity?

    Coaching staff of ‘90 Yankees along with Gene Michael(GM). Showed up as a single at Lansbrook in Palm Harbor, FL. Guy in pro shop said ‘hold on a sec”. He checked with starter to ask if it was okay to join them. (I saw who they were from the window) He gave the thumbs up and I joined them at the...

    When do you give up on looking for your ball?

    Depends on where my partners are. If they have to wait for me, not long. If I’m waiting on them, then a few extra ticks. I will have a “face palm” moment when someone in group hit their tee shot 100 mph, 100 feet in the air, straight right (left) into a forest, then says “I got a line on it…”...

    You’re playing well thru 12 holes- Do you start protecting or stay aggressive?

    To be honest, I learned to NOT "track my score" using scorecard. I have a 'feel' for how I'm doing. I only mark my score every few holes and just leave it at that. I don't know my actual score until I'm finished the round. If I'm playing well, I just want to keep that feeling going and not have...
