I finally found some free time the last 2 weeks to practice my ass off. Put in 2 hours a day on the range/chipping/putting for 7 of the last 8 days. Game is back in shape.
I guess now would be the time to brag about the golf trip I pulled together for next July.
10 days in Scotland - 8 golfers
First 3 days in North Berwick, playing Gullane #1, 36 at Muirfield, North Berwick
Next 7 days in a rental house in St. Andrews and playing Carnoustie, Old Course, New Course, Jubilee, Castle. Got 2 open days baked in so guys can play Kingsbarns or anywhere else if they want.
Getting the Muirfield tee time was huge. We had to jump on it April 1st of this year for a July 2017 trip. We will be in country the week of the Open Championship which should lead to tons of drunken pub and gambling action.
Golf, lodging and local transportation is under $2500 since I booked it all myself. Only thing left is airfare and incidentals.
That sounds like a damn good trip... Well done
You don't need to hit it farther dude. You need to hit the ball straighter and higher.

Welp, broke a couple of ribs playing basketball last week.
The rush is on to heal in time for Memorial Day Ryder Cup.
Should mostly be pain tolerance, so if I can physically swing I will be playing.
I agree.
Still thinking about lessons with your boy. Just not playing much golf with the new job and the toddler
Get some good pain killers or muscle relaxers.
Did y'all get enough players?

Got the pain meds I need, and yes we got 12, so we are good to go.
Castle course is a lot of fun but expensive as hell compared to most the courses I played in Scotland. I think a Palmer design is coming there in a few years so it will definitely be a destination.
a couple of lessons can really help though if you're close on something and want to speed figuring out what's wrong and/or not practice wrong for hundreds of swings trying to work it out.Here's the thing about lessons - they are just a band aid if you don't take the time to really work on what you've been shown. I had to go through playing like dog shit for the last 2 months before finally breaking through in the last couple weeks, and it's because I finally went and spent about 2 hours a day on the range for almost a week straight.
I think you're talking about Castle Stuart. The Castle Course is one of the 7 courses run by the St. Andrews Links Trust.
