Has anybody else seen this over the last couple days? Artist Oliver Anthony, a simple country guy in West Virginia has a song going absolutely viral. His voice is absolutely amazing. And his song has a message. Give it a listen if you havent heard..
Edit Note: Didn't intend to post the song...
Pretty interesting, this course in Sarasota replaced all greens with a synthetic grass. If your home course struggles with maintenance of the greens, would you be open to this idea? What courses do you think this option might be best suited for...
THP'ers, its been a long time since I went vehicle shopping. This weekend, I'm planning to go look at cars with my girlfriend as she is due for an upgrade. Beyond the basics, I dont consider myself a "car guy" nor some sort of master negotiator. We are not looking at new cars. Looking for...
Tomorrow will be my first time getting fit. I scheduled a full-bag fitting as a birthday gift to myself. Is there anything I should be prepared for or recommendations before going into a fitting?

If there were a movie about your life, which actor/actress would you want to play you?
For me: Ben Stiller. He was my favorite actor growing up and just has some of my favorite movies.
A 4-part documentary is coming out April 4th on JR Smith. I'm really excited to see this. As a huge basketball & golf fan, this story is really intriguing and cant wait to see behind the scenes. I really respect him going back to college to golf & persue a degree, all after a 15 year(?) nba...

Simple, do you enjoy Top Golf?
I do. Its great to take people who might like to take couple swings, but a driving range is too much for them. They have great food too in my opinion. Even though I go on average once a year, I like it everytime.
Best bar/arcade game ever? Only rival for me would be pop-a-shot.
Its been a long time since I've played, but man there are not many things better in life than drinking a beer and playing a round of Golden Tee against a friend. Anyone have a Golden Tee in their home?
What is your favorite type of cookie during this time of year? Lots of variations with Christmas cookies out there. I'm a simple guy, straight chocolate chip, all day.
If you could travel to any era or decade of golf, which time would you want to revisit? Would it be to see a specific golfer, or see the game in general?
Do you use a fitness tracker/watch? If so, which one and do you recommend it?
I know the Apple Watch, Fitbit, Whoop are the most popular out there. I'm planning to get one soon but not sure which to go with. Interested to hear the thoughts of others on this.
If you are shopping in-person, where do you shop? Whether it be for shoes, apparel, balls/tees, or clubs. I imagine there are some local/regional stores that I dont know about that I haven't listed.
Before the round, what is your warm-up routine on the putting green?
Are you spending time making X-amount of 5-footers? Are you getting the feel for lengthy putts? Do you not warm up on the greens at all?
