good morning Tony, Dave, and Rick. home health aide on her way over so I can sign 'discharge' papers. nothing more she can do until the cast comes off and a waste of time just to take my vitals which I do twice a day myself.
will choose a smoke soon and try to navigate my way outside without breaking my neck. not very graceful going down the one step.

Well, to be honest, 90 mph doesn't sound like much compared to the pros, but I'm in that same area and that's what they recommended for me at the Golf Galaxy fitting I had. Plus, if you're hitting it over 220, you're putting some speed into the ball, for sure.

It's not about age, it's about how fast you're bringing the club into the ball. If you're swinging that fast, you don't want regular flex, because then the club won't come into the ball consistently, it'll be too whippy. Even worse with senior flex.

seldom do my outings go where all my clubs work as planned. I start my drives with my 3 wood unless I have a very wide fairway. hybrids (3,4) I use out of the rough. I quit carrying my 60° wedge and put a 5 wood in the bag. only have 6-pw, 52°, 56°, and of course the putter. so I still have 13 clubs to carry.

My Cleveland driver is really far when I hit it well. My second shot is killing me. I need to figure that part of my game out. My lack of play has a lot to do with it. I'm one who has to work on my game. My lack of range time and play time are obvious.

Today is Wednesday, Sept. 8, the 251st day of 2021.
There are 114 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History:

On Sept. 8, 1565, a Spanish expedition established the first permanent European settlement in North America at present-day St. Augustine, Florida.

On this date:

In 1504, Michelangelo’s towering marble statue of David was unveiled to the public in Florence, Italy.

In 1664, the Dutch surrendered New Amsterdam to the British, who renamed it New York.

In 1761, Britain’s King George III married Princess Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz a few hours after meeting her for the first time.

In 1892, an early version of “The Pledge of Allegiance,” written by Francis Bellamy, appeared in “The Youth’s Companion.” It went: “I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”

In 1900, Galveston, Texas, was struck by a hurricane that killed an estimated 8,000 people.

In 1935, Sen. Huey P. Long, a Louisiana Democrat, was shot and mortally wounded inside the Louisiana State Capitol; he died two days later. (The assailant was identified as Dr. Carl Weiss, who was gunned down by Long’s bodyguards.)

In 1939, President Franklin D. Roosevelt declared a “limited national emergency” in response to the outbreak of war in Europe.

In 1941, the 900-day Siege of Leningrad by German forces began during World War II.

In 1943, during World War II, Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower announced Italy’s surrender; Nazi Germany denounced Italy’s decision as a cowardly act.

In 1964, public schools in Prince Edward County, Virginia, reopened after being closed for five years by officials attempting to prevent court-ordered racial desegregation.

In 1974, President Gerald R. Ford granted a “full, free, and absolute pardon” to former President Richard Nixon covering his entire term in office.

In 2019, Rafael Nadal held off a strong comeback bid to win his 19th Grand Slam title in a five-set U.S. Open final against Daniil Medvedev.

Ten years ago: Addressing a joint session of Congress, President Barack Obama challenged a reluctant Congress to urgently pass a larger-than-expected $450 billion jobs plan to “jolt an economy that has stalled.” Ten oil workers were forced to abandon a crippled 94-foot research vessel in the Gulf of Mexico and pile into a life raft during Tropical Storm Nate; by the time rescuers arrived three days after, three of the men had died, and a fourth died later at a hospital.

Five years ago: California and federal regulators fined Wells Fargo a combined $185 million, alleging the bank’s employees illegally opened millions of unauthorized accounts for their customers in order to meet aggressive sales goals. U.S. aviation safety officials took the extraordinary step of warning airline passengers not to turn on or charge a new-model Samsung smartphone, the Galaxy Note 7, during flights following numerous reports of the devices catching fire. Greta Zimmer Friedman, identified as the woman in an iconic photo seen kissing an ecstatic sailor in Times Square celebrating the end of World War II, died in Richmond, Virginia, at age 92.

One year ago: The Northern California foothill hamlet of Berry Creek was largely destroyed in what would be the deadliest of the wildfires burning through much of the state; it left 16 people dead. More than a dozen California firefighters trying to protect a fire station in rugged mountains were overrun by flames; several were hurt as they deployed emergency shelters. Students across the nation ran into computer glitches as they began the school year with online instruction at home because of the coronavirus. Britain’s government banned gatherings of more than six people in England, as officials tried to keep a lid on daily new coronavirus infections.

I did play a par 3 over the summer and that was one of my better games at 5 over par. I had another round with a 51 and 40 for a 91. Inconsistency and then there's the round with the low 100's
I'm happy with bogey golf.
You get to enjoy more of the scenery that way.
I always say I got my money's worth out of a round. Morning, DroppedToNumber6Dave.

I can count the amount of times I golfed this year on 1 hand. It is what it is. La ast time out I could not hit my hybrids to save my life. I luckily still had a 7 wood in my bag. I may just hand em up?
seldom do my outings go where all my clubs work as planned. I start my drives with my 3 wood unless I have a very wide fairway. hybrids (3,4) I use out of the rough. I quit carrying my 60° wedge and put a 5 wood in the bag. only have 6-pw, 52°, 56°, and of course the putter. so I still have 13 clubs to carry.
My Cleveland driver is really far when I hit it well. My second shot is killing me. I need to figure that part of my game out. My lack of play has a lot to do with it. I'm one who has to work on my game. My lack of range time and play time are obvious.
