I'm on flex-time vacation for the next several days, and plan to hit the white ball as often as humanly possible. The forecast calls for temps in the mid-90's today, and even higher tomorrow ("feel like" temp at 102). Yowzah. North Carolina is beautiful (year-round golf helps), but the temps are tough for this native New Englander. I guess I'll break out the sunscreen today, and actually expose my chicken legs in shorts.
Oooh, but the week to come! Lochmere, Brevofield, Pascal, Sanford, Pine Burr -- even the course names bring a smile. Maybe I can hit them all, if I can tweak the budget to fund it. Meanwhile, the coolest thing has happened. I recently started a discussion about Slazenger wide-sole irons. Well, someone here in the Golflink community has written to offer me a set of Adams Ovation Irons, 4-PW, for free! I'll let him remain nameless, as this came in a private message. But -- what a great gift, huh? May the golf-gods, and the God of the golf-gods, return the blessing to him seven-fold, and may his tribe increase (and handicap decrease)!

Postscript, after playing 18 brutal, humid holes under a sizzling sun:The weather was hot. My putter was not. A headache's what I got. 102 is what I shot. |
