Whoever double-crosses me and leaves me alive, he understands nothing about Tuco. Nothing!

I get out of golf exactly what I put into it. Which is to say, “not much”. I haven’t played a round since prior to my stroke on Aug 1, 2017. Now OA is kicking my butt in mid-40’s.
However, I used to play great customer golf: I pay for the round I buy the beer You always beat me |

You did not drive the green so no care....LOL
in my younger days I could - If I got a good roll - LOL Remember one time there was a foursome on the green - with the ball rolled up on the green they all turned around and looked at us on the tee box and waved...they let us play thru. I F'en never got an eagle - There was a course outside of Atlanta - three times I was on the green in two and never got it! Wished I had taken up the game a couple of years earlier! when I was about 18 - I went and played a round with my Grandfather...I was trying so hard to gorilla the ball - that I got beat - my Grandfather said no mater how far you hit the ball - still takes two strokes to get on the green!

I can also hit a 56 deg wedge about 100 yards when trying to take a 1/4 swing chip from about 25 yards out in the first cut of rough and a perfect lie. |

Do kids still play Cops and Robbers, or are they just taught both are equally bad and given a participation ribbon after a rousing game of scoreless Everyone's a Winner Ball? - BehindBlueI's

And if any of you are wondering “what iron for a watch.” (When you read 90 and fly the green and look again and it says 110) it’s a sand wedge. |

It tacks my score by sensing impact. If I want to track my distance I have to remember what the distance is on the tee box to the green then when I find my ball I read the distance to the green again and subtract that from the tee box distance. Been thinking about upgrading to the Approach S70 but I an finding it hard to justify trhe $500 when I also want a new putter. At the same time I am trying to save funds for a new guitar. LOL It sucks being hobby poor |

I'm not hitting 300+, but I'm working a lot on flattening and shortening my driver swing.
It's helping accuracy without losing distance. Hopefully it translates to the course and my caveman brain doesn't kick in on the tee box. |

I did a handful of 300+ drives this past week. It's always fun hitting a bomb in front of a group.
I went down to visit a buddy and they consider him to be a big hitter. I was past him on just about every drive that hit the fairway. For the guys who want big tee shots, remember the longer the ball the bigger the miss. I hit one somewhere in the 330s on a par 5. Left an 8-iron into the green. Problem is, I flew the woods on the right. Flew over the shitter house. Flew over a tee box and the green before it by about 50 yards. It was a bomb. Had we been on any other hole on the course, it would have been in the water or in someone's living room or pool. I'd trade 20 yards distance for 20 yards tighter dispersion on misses. But, boy do they feel good when you catch one. The best feeling I remember on a golf course was the first time I hit one 400 yards. I can't do that anymore but I'll send one out there about 360 on occasion. Did it in the work league last year. Left a 3/4 sand wedge into the green and still left with a par. |

My Dad: with respect to your chosen profession son, do what you want to do, who you want to do it for and where you want to do it.

I've worked my ass off to improve my game. I've finally developed a solid swing and average 240 on my drives. Had a 317 down wind a few weeks ago while shooting a 77. You have to practice all the time. The game can not be perfected. |
