When they dial back the ball and make us start playing with fiberglass shafts, what will us OGA boys be gaming? 

 

Note to self:  Start hording golf balls.

Great news that you’re on the mend. That’s solid improvement. Success breeds more success.

 

There a big difference between dreading putts and the feeling that you can’t wait to get putter in your hands.

 

I remember the story of Hogan griping in a hotel room to his wife that he just couldn’t make enough putts. And she asked why he didn’t just hit it closer to the hole. And he took it to heart. 🙂

 

Absolutely.  You make a few.  Stop 3 putting and suddenly you can putt with anything !  
 

Everything else gets easier too when you aren’t under so much pressure to not 3 putt.

The unthought of question is will the market for ball retrievers tank in 2030? 

 

 

 

oops had to edit the year

Cool.  Just goes to show you , we’re all different. And guys who at the extremes have to fight the norms.  March that  guy into a pga super store equivalent and they’d tell him how wrong he is 😂.  

Or post it here in the equipment or I&A forums. I can see it blowing up like an atomic bomb

Only because some people are so narrow minded to think their way is the ONLY way or if some "guru" says that is "The Way".

If I state something on the lines of that I always say it works for me and may or may not work for you. I have always said that there is no one etched in stone way to play this game. Whether it is the swing or the equipment used. Some people just want to create hate and discontent as SOP. They live for it

I just heard through the grapevine (pinot grigio) that they're changing the name of the forum to SkiWRX.

 

Or head to SkiTalk.  There's a subforum on golf.  Y'all be top dog experts over there.  There's even a thread on Instruction.  I didn't enter.  Surprisingly, no ski I & A topics on best way to hold an edge.  Chez Ziggy be like the Grille.

Im not looking to get a whole quantum gravity thing going here but

 

Can you imagine the magnitude of an intellect capable and confident enough to author such a chapter 🤣

They got so many things right. They being Einstein and Hawking.

 

Only a few more chapters to go!

 

If you’d like something after you finish that brings together science and art/humanity, you might want to check this out.

 

It was a BBC series 50 years ago with Jacob Bronowski (sp?) called The Ascent of Man. Brilliant and captivating. I think it was transposed to a book.

 

If someone converted the series to video, it would be far better to watch than read.

Just watching Spieth, Scheffler and Hovland for the past couple of days is enough to prove that.   Vastly different swings and they're a combined 43 under.

Equipment info searching is what brought me to GolfWRX in the first place. I could have just

thrown $20K in the fireplace and come out the same.......but I would have missed out on so

much fun!😀

Ditto in the I&A. 

 

It's interesting when you take a step back and observe how we golfers need full commitment to whatever it is we believe in order to execute.  That same mindset can leave a golfer with a hair trigger on rejecting anything that doesn't fit his version of "the facts".   

 

Life is too short.  So many ways golfers can relax and share good fun without calling each other's baby ugly.

Told the wife that I needed to run an errand yesterday. I couldn’t go tomorrow because place is closed on Sunday.

 

She told me it was Friday.

 

Another satisfying senior moment.

Well, you have a good excuse. You were just preparing for retirement. That involved buying 

and testing a lot of clubs!

 

Looking back, the year before I retired might have been the high point on the graph of my

club hoing. Then again, maybe it wasn't. My first year at WRX was probably the high point

on the graph. Club hoing was a new and exciting thing back then. I dove right in. What a

ride!🤣
