Thanks @Smooth .
I think better times are upon us man. A few of our major concerns are lining up for a positive outcome and my health seems to be getting better all the time.

7 iron always havenā€™t you watched tin cup @pathealy? :rofl:. Plus itā€™s edge is flat enough to putt with. I always played with 6 iron par 4 on in 2 even long par 4 and can choke up for short par 3.

Haha 8 iron is much easier to open the face and use out of greenside sand. Itā€™s the perfect bump and run club, easy to hood off the tee and run out there decent. Usually played it on Donald Ross tracks, so getting out of sand around greens and over the lip was more important than distance. Generate more spin with an 8 as well. Super easy to putt with too. Iā€™d putt with an 8 over 6 all day. Just bellying it anyways. I putt with a wedge constantly instead of going to get my putter if itā€™s an easy putt.

Nice!! Fun as heck playing at elevation. Carries for days. Haha I had friends that were PGA of America teaching professionals at nice private clubs (they love trying to just say ā€œPGA Proā€ but most of them arenā€™t even that good. Just practiced their ass off for 2-3 months before their PAT. Haha) and weā€™d play right after they closed the pro shop at 4:30-5:00 everyday and play at least 36. Fun times for sure. 10 handicap is solid too. Makes me believe you were actually a 10 too, because for some reason most people who are actually 12-18s ALWAYS say 8. I hate it so much!! Haha Tee off with three 8s and none of them break 85ā€¦

I donā€™t know how and where this conversation started, but I know exactly what youā€™re referring to, with people trying to claim a much lower handicap. Actually, every time I play with someone Iā€™ve never played with, this exact thing happens :joy:
Not sure why people think itā€™s impressive to lie about something like that. When in all honesty, itā€™s much better to lie about it the other way, for true benefit lol.

Hahaha Exactly! That and them not accepting the tees they should be playing from. Dude who spins a fade out there 220-240 off the tee and wants to play ā€œthe tipsā€ every time. Iā€™d almost rather you sandbag me than lie about being better than you are. Haha

Lol, exactly!! Iā€™m just the opposite. If Iā€™m playing with someone new, Iā€™m generally gonna tell them Iā€™m a 10 or so, but Iā€™m gonna shoot in the 70s :joy:
Doesnā€™t make any sense to me to give a handicap that you know you canā€™t play to. Itā€™s way better to shoot lower than what someone is expecting. And the ā€œtipsā€ is where the 12-20 handicappers want to play lol. Itā€™s always comical, yet so predictable!

By the way, Iā€™m referring to friendly games lol. Iā€™d never intentionally sandbag someone for money or any type of competition, I just like to leave room for error because you never know whatā€™s gonna happen.

Burger King has breakfast? I just heard Wendyā€™s does too. Tbch Iā€™ve always wondered why so many places donā€™t offer breakfast as itā€™s the ONE meal I always miss cuz Iā€™m too lazy in the am. Now every month I hear of somewhere adding ā€œbreakfast foodā€ if u can call it thatā€¦. How was it homie?

I buy the carnation breakfast shakes in powder and just add milk. Unless someone else is making it or I go out that is the extent of my morning meals lol

Burger Kings croissant breakfast sandwiches are good. Subway has good breakfast flat bread sandwiches. Much better for you too.

Steel cut oats, blueberries, ground flax, chia, thinly sliced banana, Greek yogurt, and Ceylon cinnamon every morning. Sometimes add some honey or different fruits. In high school I could get out of class and stuff by buying our wood shop teacher Burger King breakfast.
