@GolfTravelerJoe I've been very fortunate to play golf on 6 continents and play a high percentage of the top 100. Given today's hassles of travel, the ever escalating costs and the yahoos who pursue these top courses now, I truly don't have the desire to do it any longer. Surely great memories!

Ya know I see a lot, I mean a lot of posts across social media from people who want to play courses like Shinnecock, Brookline and even Augusta and don’t get me wrong playing those courses would be amazing to play obviously, but for me I like keeping my list realistic but still amazing places like Pasatiempo, Royal Dornoch and Portmarnock.

@linderje @FFT1776 Simple solution...move back to the country from which you came. Evidently, everything was perfect there.

@FFT1776 Pray after midnight. Most dogs are sleeping then.

OH HELL NO! Send him our message LOUD & CLEAR!

@GolfTravelerJoe @oneputt56 @TSA @Delta Good luck with that! @delta broke the legs off my Titleist stand bag. Due to their delayed flight, I got in past midnight. I didn't open my travel cover until morning. When I reported it, they said it was after the 6 hour limit!! Disgraceful. Basically, FU. Too late!!

@oneputt56 @TSA @Delta Just filed a claim with @Delta

Well that sucks, I just unpacked my golf bag after our trip to Scotland and it was obvious that @TSA or @Delta or the ground crew somewhere went through my bag because my Pinehurst driver cover is gone.

@MichelleKinney @Delta I had the same runaround with @Delta this year. They destroyed my golf bag. Because I didn't report it within 6 hours, they denied my claim. Who gets home at midnight from a delayed flight and unpacks their golf bag from the travel cover? I did in the morning. FU. Too late!

My husband and I have been loyal @Delta customers for over a decade. Diamond. Platinum. -- you name it. They have a lot of our money. But today we quit. Delta destroyed our property. We filed a claim. We sent every receipt, every photo, every document they demanded. We waited, were strung along. It's all a game. Then came the letter. It said our evidence — the evidence *they asked for* — "casts doubt." So we were told, in legalese, to fck off. Let's be clear about what this is: Delta broke our property. Delta made us chase them. Delta strung us along to waste our time, and our money. Because Delta does not give a single fck. This is what this country has come to. Greed disguised as loyalty programs, while charging us for the privilege of being a "valued customer." While they laugh at us and their executives receive hundreds of millions in bonuses at our expense. Figure out whose business you actually want, @Delta. Because you just made that decision for us.

@drakesmith__ Hope they aren't thinking of bringing back Sansabelt slacks...fyi, that's the late great Andy Bean is sporting them in the below picture.

Please no 😂 I used to wear a lot of fabric, it was so hot.

@linderje @sizzle_sarah Prison needs her.

@sizzle_sarah Japan needs her.

Somalia would be a better fit for her.

@drakesmith__ When I play with golfers I don't know, I always look at there stroke, especially on shorter putts. It's amazing how many have a noticeable twitch. Sometimes they are quite violent. When golfers see me putting face-on, they will usually say, "That makes sense. Seems easier."

@MarkCongressGA7 That holds with my experience for sure.

I had the yips for years. Almost to the point where I wanted to quit golf. It started when I injured my left shoulder. If you have ever seen Lucas Glover's struggles with them, that was me. I tried everything, psychology, prayer, grit, getting pissed and nothing worked. I don't know what the yips are exactly but it is not a mindset I can vouch for that. This putter saved my golfing life. Kind of sounds dramatic but it is true. This thing has been a game changer for the yips. For the first time in years I am looking to make putts inside of 10ft. If you have ever had the yips or have them now I can't recommend the LAB Broomstick enough. I just copied Glover's technique. I put a video of him putting with it in the comments.

@drakesmith__ Hank Haney explained it to me this way... No matter how hard you try, when you have yips it's like placing a needle on a record, it immediately plays the song in the groove. You've got to scratch the record so much the needle can't stay in the groove. It requires a huge change.

@MarkCongressGA7 Any insight into what the Yips are, I am not sure anyone really knows.

@linderje I guess Nazi is a term of endearment?

@Weinsteinlaw Calling them Hitler is better?

The pattern is unmistakable and repulsive. If you keep calling Black leaders "low IQ," you aren't expressing a political disagreement. You are using a racist dog whistle to undermine their humanity. Every single time Donald Trump uses this slur, he shows the country that his politics are built entirely on grievance and bigotry. It’s a disgrace to the office and a stain on this country.

@linderje @steeler4ever79 Boots, skirts and straight hair were evidently all quite popular back then.

@steeler4ever79 Nobody's fat!

@cptdankkk @nedryun If two graduates came in for an interview, one having gone to a community college or state college and didn't have student loans, the other a major university with significant student loans, I'm giving the advantage to the former before they even say a word in their interviews.

Mark Cuban says taking out a loan to go to college is the dumbest thing you can do "If you can't afford it you can't afford it. Don't take out a ton of loans and f#ck up your future" "I tell people go to community college. Accounting class is accounting class whether it's at a community college or at Harvard" "The delta between the most basic four year school and the best public universities is really small"

@linderje @redpillb0t He believes in massive population reduction. Ok, you go first Bill to save the planet.

@redpillb0t What has worked for 10,000 years is now not sustainable?

Bill Gates: “Cows make 6% of global emissions.” “You can either fix the cows, or make beef without the cow.” That’s the conversation now: not about farming, not about land use — but redesigning the cow itself.

@Delta @jisaacraymond Yeah right @Delta. I'm on AA tonight because you couldn't get me home today and wouldn't until Monday. My last 3 @Delta trips: 1. 10 hour flight delay in ATL. 2. Two consecutive cancelled flights. Cost >$400. 3. Today. Flown over 1 mm miles with you. Gets worse by the day.

@RandPaul @patriotpromise2 Senator Paul, We're tired of years of "All talk, no action." It's well past time to put up or shut up. Thank you. Sincerely, The American people

The COVID cover-up goes all the way to the top. Fauci funded the Wuhan lab. Senior intelligence officials hid classified evidence from the president himself. Scientists were silenced. Millions paid the price. The DOJ has until May 11th to prosecute Fauci before the statute of limitations runs out. I am not letting this go. The American people deserve justice.

@HankHaney They're the same obnoxious guys playing music, gambling and lining up the High Noon's in their cart. The rest of us do care about events on the PGA Tour; especially The Players, Memorial, Bay Hill, Riviera, Quail Hollow, Scottish Open, etc...

I wouldn’t say no one

@linderje @AntiLeftMemes Kinda like a kid who gets a trophy for just showing up. The Greatest Generation vs The Lost Generation.

@AntiLeftMemes Two American soldiers and the medals they've won.

Do you believe Mark Milley is a traitor to the United States of America? A. YES B. NO

@digginholez @drakesmith__ I totally understand and respect that!

@MarkCongressGA7 @drakesmith__ My only times to golf are after getting off work after 14 hours and trying to cram in a quick 9 before sleep. I will be carting every chance I get. Don’t drink and no music though

Golf culture does something subtle and destructive. It mocks the guy who takes it seriously until he has a handicap worth respecting. So most guys protect themselves early. They joke first. They sandbag. They never try too hard in public. You are allowed to take it seriously.

@linderje @EliteMan091 Very well said John.

@EliteMan091 There are several specific reasons that make it out of keeping with the Virginia constitution. They will not strike it down. The courts are no longer judicial. They are political.

If you think the Virginia Supreme Court should STRIKE DOWN the 'new' Gerrymandered map.. ​Raise your hand! 🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️ ​A) YES, Strike it down! ❌ B) NO, Keep it. ✅

@drakesmith__ Absolutely! Competitive Senior golf will NOT disappear!!

@MarkCongressGA7 Definite possibility, the Senior Open and Senior British Open and others I would think would still be around, there will still be things to qualify for.

My goal is to play in some Champions Tour events I will be 46 in August. Here is what my week looks like for training: Monday = Squatting and Olympic lifting session Tuesday = Shoulders and pull Wednesday = CrossFit Metcon Thursday = Squatting Friday = Mobility Saturday = CrossFit Metcon Sunday = Rest
