Hey! That's elder abuse! I'm forever damaged, emotionally, by such remarks. My attorney will be contacting you.... As soon as I remember his name.
I am SO out of shape after this winter. Between spending time in classrooms, getting no physical exercise and it being too cold to play golf and walk the dog... I'm a pathetic weakling right now. Gotta get the old bod back in shape!!!
But then t;he golf game might go down because of getting muscle bound.Hey! That's elder abuse! I'm forever damaged, emotionally, by such remarks. My attorney will be contacting you.... As soon as I remember his name.

Man, this old game is infuriating. Played Saturday, hit a lot of great shots, but the putter was out of sorts. I missed 3 or 4 makeable putts from 6-10 ft. Felt like I hit decent putts, just didn't drop. Chipping was not just as tight as it needed to be. Shot +6 for 16 holes and felt like I played as well as the week before (+1). A five-shot swing is a lot.
I guess that pretty much summarizes the game.

The Golf Gods giveth, and the Golf Gods taketh away.
60's today and the course is back open!!! That's the good news. Played terrible!! Score didn't look that bad on paper. 41/40. After a few week layoff, should be happy with that. No help from teammates. Lost $2.00!!!! Durn golf!!!!
Nice again tomorrow. Gotta win back some of that money or head to the local bread basket to get food for the rest of the week!!! :>)

The Phoenix will rise again...
81 is terrible on the PGA Tour. Everywhere else, it's pretty good golf.
Yeah, but... We had six. Split 3 vs. 3. My 3 had my 81, a 91, and a 94!!!! The other team had a 78, an 85 and an 86. They were 3 under as a team. We were 5 over as a team. At 25 cents... That's $2.00. FOLDING MONEY!!!!81 is terrible on the PGA Tour. Everywhere else, it's pretty good golf.
Shot a 93, at Kierland which is really good for me ... was in sticker shock on the "normal" price of green's fee in the winter ... $209 ... they are nice courses, but I can find a lot other options here in Phx ... Fortunately my round was covered.
Another beautiful day. A little more wind, but only 20 to 25 mph. 39/40 for a 79. Won back $1.50 of the $2.00 lost yesterday. Whoopeee!!! Beginning to get used to the change I made in my putter. Made some nice putts today. Tee shots went haywire the last 5 holes or could have finished even lower.
89 today on a sunny, breezy warm day. Score not so good, but life is good.
Well, up 50 cents for the week. Lost $2.00 on Monday. Got back $1.50 yesterday. Another $1.00 from those suckers today!!! Rough day on the course, though. 42/42 for a sloppy 84. After beautiful weather the past two days, WBL and Company sent cold north winds this way today. Temps steadily dropping with north winds gusting to 20 mph. Really need to work on my chipping. Been inconsistent... VERY inconsistent. If it weren't for rolling in some long putts that I would normally miss, would be scoring much worse.
Teaching tomorrow and the weather is forecast to be awful anyway.

Better wear your body armor in case that troublemaker brings in a gun.
Cold and windy this morning. Just three of us showed. And, we were the only three on the course until around noon. I stuck the old Ping Eye 2's in the bag to give them some fresh air. Still an amazing set of irons. If it weren't for the ancient hands, wrists, and elbows I'd leave them in the bag. The graphite shafts in my GMax irons simply absorb so much more shock and are easier on the joints. The Eye 2's area almost exactly 1 club shorter than the GMax. The GMax have jacked up lofts, longer shafts, and lighter flex shafts. Why wouldn't they send the ball further?
The greens had become awfully shaggy over the dormant winter time. Yesterday, the crew mowed and rolled the greens. Sheesh. From slow winter greens to a tight mowed and rolled surface?? It was difficult to judge distance. Heck! It was difficult to keep a putt on the green!
Still had another 42/42, duplicate of the last round. The GMax are back in the bag, however, for the weekend rounds.
