    Well, this is sobering……

    I’m one of those who believes new clubs are not always the answer to playing better. I was playing back in the 70’s and I’m not scoring better than I was 50 years ago. But, if I was still using the same clubs I had back then, I’d definitely be scoring even worse today than I am now.

    Do you ever feel not good enough for a golf course?

    I’m good enough to PLAY any course, not necessarily good enough to score well though. I’ve never felt I wasn’t good enough about any course but I got old and lost a lot of distance. Now, I know I’m not long enough to play places or from tees that are too long for me.

    House Value vs. Property Taxes.

    Zillow numbers in my area are very close to what houses actually sell for. A big reason I moved to Indiana 3 years ago is because of how reasonable the property taxes are relative to the price of the home. In the Great Lakes region of the Midwest, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois and...

    What Do You Do To Just Get Away???

    Back in the day, I used to go fishing to get away. I quit playing golf for several years when I was working a lot of hours, on call a lot and just didn’t have enough time to play frequently enough to play as well as I was capable. Being on the water was the respite I needed to recharge and...

    Most Nervous You've Been for a Round

    The one I remember most was my freshman year of high school. I made the varsity golf team. The only freshman with 2 seniors and 2 junior’s. First match, the 2 seniors got up in my face and threatened to beat the crap out of me if I didn’t play well. After averaging 37-38 for 9 holes leading up...

    League Partners Giving Putts

    My senior league is pretty informal and it isn’t very competitive. A couple of the guys don’t concede anything but most of us will give most putts under 3 feet or so.

    Are Sunglasses Optional?

    For those that sunglasses affect depth perception or otherwise mess you up while golfing, do your sunglasses have curved lenses? I have to have relatively flat lenses to see properly. My eye doctor confirmed my observations and said it’s a common problem for some people

    Range Finder Warranty

    The length of the warranty has, in most cases, little to do with the quality of a product. It’s usually something the marketing department uses to help sell units. People often make decisions based on the length of the warranty. Longer warranties are an added expense for the company and a cost...
