    Nets & Divot Mats

    The Spornia models look good. Maybe I can hold off a bit and catch an end of season sale. Well, at least end of season around these parts.

    Most Pars or Better in a Round

    9 hole round +3, started off bogey, par, bogey, bogey, and then 5 straight pars. #3 & #4 par 3's #9 par 5 I had to pull a rabbit out of my hat with a 21 yard chip to a 2 ft. tap-in.

    What’s worse?

    Punched greens and what makes it really irritating is when you booked a tee time and drove 1 1/2 hours to 'play'.

    Nets & Divot Mats

    Has anybody purchased any of the cheaper priced nets & divot carpet items off from Amazon. I'm looking for a net that doesn't run $900 or more. I'm looking at something less than say $150 - $200. I was wondering what your experiences have been with them for durability on the net, brackets...

    Trying to Break 100

    I've played 4 times since my last post. No 18 hole rounds and a couple ended after 5 holes out of pure frustration. I literally could not hit a driver to save myself. Five holes I used a driver and the total yardage on my Shot Scope was 707 yards. I hit a weak 149 yard downhill shot on #9...

    Trying to Break 100

    I took a year layoff from golf and picked it back up again. The first few rounds out of the gate were usually around the 105 marker playing it as it lies. The usual long layoff crap of tops, fats, and 45 degree shots to the right at random times. Usually after a beautiful tee shot. I...

    Idiot of the YEAR!!!!

    Sorry to hear about your misfortune. Hopefully a kind soul out there will come through. It makes my driving away from the vehicle and not strapping the bag down to the cart seem trivial. Multiple times I might add.

    Chess

    I've been on a climb recently then have been hitting a wall. I have been using basically the same opening moves and do not get blown off the board. I do need to study up more on combating the 'd4' opening from my opponents. Things get dicey when I'm playing black and that is their opening...

    Opussums

    I put some cantaloupe and other treats in the trap a few days ago with the intention of catching a woodchuck. The next night the trap was sprung and I caught an opossum. It is a nasty-looking critter with a face only a mother could love. It was transported across the river so I'm sure there...

    Chess

    Play online, it's free. I signed up to chess.com and pay a fee so I am able to have a computer analyze my games or solve puzzles. It is free to just play a computer or person. It is amazing how many lost opportunities present themselves during a game. I just don't spot them in the 10 minute...

    Rahmbo goes down

    He should have bartered for 'social distance' playing privileges. It's a shame that a pre-existing condition gets one the boot. :sick:

    Town names that make you giggle.

    Middlesex, NJ Middlesex Township, PA - a town nearby used to be called Farview but the name was later changed to Drytown supposedly because the residents refused to give the Confederate soldiers water as they were passing through. There is a name of a place located about 15 miles from me...

    Trying to Break 100

    You sound just like me, picking them off the grass like a surgeon. We leave no trace that we were there. A delicate balance of finesse and hitting 5 inches behind the ball. I guess we could call the latter malpractice on our part. :eek: This finesse player started his very first day of a...

    How far do you hit a 7 Iron?

    As of today, my stock 7i carry distance is 125 yards. 💩 A few years ago on the simulator, it was 155 yards. :unsure: Two shoulder surgeries and back troubles robbed me of 30 yards. I do know that more than a few years ago when I played with minor aches and pains and could make a smooth swing...

    What's the longest break you've had from golf?

    Mine was 4 years. I had just picked up the game in the weeks prior and had finished lesson #4 out of 5. The pro said I hit great for someone just starting out and I was looking into getting a few playing rounds in the lesson plan. I was going to go out and play a round after lesson #4 but...

    Trying to Break 100

    I got mixed in with a threesome today and it was from the gold tees. One guy and two ladies. I struggled for a 99 with short balls off the tee and erratic shots throughout but still had fun. I also was in the sand quite a bit and I was tentative hitting them out with people standing past the...

    Chess

    I've been watching quite a bit of chess content on YouTube lately. Some of it is from the Los Angeles Chess Club and some of the same players playing games at the beach with some friendly banter and trash-talking going on. There are two youngsters (Golan and Dada) that put the hurting on the...

    Trying to Break 100

    I've hit many a drive that looks like a deflating balloon. You just never know where it is going to go. :)

    Trying to Break 100

    I went out to play 18 yesterday with the goal of getting back home to watch the PGA. The first hole I pulled a 3 wood and it landed in front of the ladies' tee box on #2. I'm 107 yards out and it is a pin seeker from my vantage point. Too bad it rolled to the far end of the green so I'm...
