As golf season winds down here in the PNW (Washington), my local play comes to an end this week, as I head for Florida for the winter. It has been a really good, and active, year, as... beside play at my Home Course and winning the Club Championship, I also played in our Area Sweeps League, in...

Who has been to the PGA Golf Show? I will be repping my Golf Club at the 2020 PGA Golf Show in Orlando, FL on January 20. My Club manager says I will feel like a kid in a candy store.

Will play my last round of golf... for the year, here in Washington state, tomorrow. Arrive in Florida Friday afternoon... Spring Hill (Tampa/St Pete area). Looking forward to warmer weather. Will also be attending the PGA Show in Orlando in January.

Wouldn't it be nice if you could get those lost golf balls back? I mean, at $25/$35/$45 a dozen, golf ball investments can get out of hand. At ALVGC we have volunteers who regularly scour the brush and search through the tall fescue, retrieving 100s of golf ball a week. Those ball are brought...

As a longtime member of THP... A couple of weeks ago, I invited THP members to visit our American Lake Veterans Golf Course at http://www.veterangolf.org or www.nicklaus.com/design/american-lake-veterans or on Facebook at Friends of American Lake Veterans Golf Course, and I asked for donations...

I have been a THP member and Albatross member for some years, but it is always good to reintroduce ourselves and update our changed status. As a retired Marine, my Home Golf Course is American Lake Veterans Golf Course, in Lakewood, Washington (Tacoma area). It is a unique Jack Nicklaus...

I did a dumb thing, last week, as I prepared to fly to Florida. I decided I would pull the trigger on Ship Sticks and sent my clubs on ahead. It was a disaster. Since I sent them by ground, I got here well ahead of them. I shipped them on Sept 4th and I flew on September 5. It's now Sept 13th...

Five years later, I still consider myself NEW to golf, although I have learned much. Back in the beginning, my naïveté and lack of asking, had me playing with Ping red dot SENIOR flex shafts. I figured at 68 years old and just starting, it made good sense. A few years later, when I bought my...

Since taking my chipping/pitching lessons, with our Club PGA Pro, Rick Gerouix, a few of weeks ago, and my DAILY PRACTICE SESSIONS... I have EIGHT (8) chip ins from off the green, and 92% of my following putts are from inside 6 feet. I've gone from shooting mostly mid 80's to shooting mostly...

Golf doesn't care..... If you are playing a long course or a short course. The game consists of 18 separate, individual challenges unrelated to each other, except for their combined scoring. If you reach a short Par 4 in one and 4 putt, you get the same score as reaching a longer Par 4 in two...

Didn't expect this to happen for a few years yet.... it was 1 over par, but, I shot my age Today. 72

My Home Course... American Lake Veterans Golf Club, in Washington State, is undergoing a major change. Until this year we were under the thumb of the Department of Veterans Affairs. Our all volunteer run course, located on the American Lake VA Campus, answered to the Govt Officials and as a...

Not sure how GHIN gave me an 8 handicap... nor am I impressed by it. We don't even put scores in, this time of year in the GNW. In fact, the computers are not supposed to accept any scores from course in our 3 state region (Washington, Oregon, Idaho).

My new Big Bertha fairway woods arrived today..... so, in tomorrow morning's Scramble I am going with 2 Drivers... a 9° Big Bertha Alpha off the Tee and a 13.5° off the deck, a 15° 3 Wood and a 20° 7 Wood... all Big Berthas and all set to favor a draw over a cut shot, which, more often than not...

Just for fun, I picked up a Medicus power meter and set it up per instructions. No way am I ready to believe that my swing speed is over 120 mph. So, I'm guessing that this Medicus power meter is a piece of junk. Today's Pro Golfers don't swing that fast.Not to mention that a close inspection...

I dropped from 19.5 to 17.8 since the last revision on April 15. I expect to drop another 2 or more strokes by May 15th.
