The Golf thread

We bought our son a membership to the local course. He's been going out and playing with some of the college golfers. He feels that once he gets the putting figured out that he will be ready to challenge his old man. That isn't necessarily a tall task but I'll be damned if I don't go out without a fight. 😂
Drive for show putt for dough….

I'm getting the urge to golf again this year. last year I went early but both my oldest son and I were struggling and kinda decided to spend our energy on other things last summer/fall. However I'm enjoying the golf on TV and going to start hitting the range.
I'm sure as soon as I get to "Shanksville" I'll be questioning why I try to golf :coffee:

I have to get the OK from my surgeon on Monday to start playing. I do feel that I am ready. Traditionally, I play the morning of the draft and the weather forecast looks good for both Thursday and Friday of next week.
 
Our old friend Danny Woodhead is in a qualifier for the U.S. Open.


Go get em, Woodcock!! :rofl:
Woodhead tried to qualify a couple of years ago but failed in the last qualifying tournament. Hopefully, he makes it this year.

Justin Thomas leads the Heritage after day 2. JT was one of golfs wiz kids five or six years ago. He hasn't won a tournament in the past 3 years.
Golf is hard.
 
Breaking News: I have been conditionally cleared to play by my surgeon.
I should be able to play my traditional round on draft day. The one time recently that I wasn't able to play, because of very bad weather, we drafted Cole Strange.
 
over a year ago I’d posted about not playing for years because I’d hurt my back in 2018.
I’ve been to the range a few times and hit a few irons but never played a full round. Yesterday I did 18 with my neighbor at our Florida place. The good news is I had no problems physically. Felt great after. The bad news was my game. Good lord I could not do anything right. Shanking shots left and right.
I’m not disappointed, I just need to play more and get my shit together. I used to be a 10 handicap and if you saw me yesterday you’d never know it. Oh well. It’s a start.

Great! Just stretch good before tee off. Also do some back exercises before I leave leave for the course.
You have never heard this before, I'm sure. Golf is hard!
I'll be playing in about an hour. I don't know who is going to show up. Dr. Jekyll or Mr. Hyde.
After spending the last 6 months recovering from a couple of surgeries, I don't care about my score that much.
But, I'm probably going to say a couple of swear words. :cool:
 
I am so up and down with golf. Last year was an up year where I played a lot. I thought that would continue this year and my game would really improve. Guess what? I haven't played a single round and I'm now less than a month out from my first tournament. My next two weekends are already booked and I won't sacrifice the gym during the week to play. So that "I don't give a shit" attitude has already started to creep in.
