Daryl,
If you start bringing closets into these posts, Mike O and the Bucket will go off on about a 50 post threadjack. I have seen it . It is not pretty.
Back to regular programming...

The sweet spot is the hosel, right? Sure feels sweet so I assume I'm right.

The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts)

Listen Buzzard breath! Don't be crapping on my boy Bucket- I did a little investigation and in 2 1/2 weeks he's posted more than you have since you joined on 01-20-2005. Now what does that say?  That's right- Bucket is one sick puppy!
Now for the question of the day- Where did I pull this post from? Hint:
For the content of the day- Contrary to common golf forum belief- "Feel is always real"- It's understanding how and why it's real that is important. So, when you change your by-line grasshopper- I know it will be time for you to leave and go out into the world. Until then - keep thinking that the stick that is halfway in the water - is bent, or that you can't trust your senses because they "mis-lead" you and that when the tree falls in the forest- there is no sound unless someone is there to hear it.

The "blobman" is apparently based on Hogans swing... it (I think) comes from Greg McHatton (...He attended Homer's class with Yoda I think?)... based on some research done apparently looking at Hogans swing in the Shell World of Golf Hogan-Snead match.... or so I heard.... it is on youtube posted by someone else... i am not trying to advertise or take credit for anything other than finding the clips and sticking them together!

Two down
Two down.....48 to go. Buzzard breath? Not bad, Mike O.
I knew the "c" word would have you both out here, like white on rice!
It may be a while before we get back to any regular programming. But that is .............the way it is here in cyberspace. And I, for one, like it!

The show
The show was consistent with others we have here annually. Some good deals on last years stuff, not much cutting edge merchandise. Lots of shoes and windshirts. Before the internet, these shows were about the only way to get "deals" for the average Joe. Long Driver Brian Pavlet was there, along with a trick shot artist.......did not get his name. Hank Haney is coming in today and I think tomorrow. I wish it was our Youthful Green Guy instead. Maybe next year....

I don't force feed cows! If you disagree then tell me why and I'll try to prove my point! If you agree or don't care - then there is no reason for me to ramble on incoherently! By the way Bucket- I find it rude and politically insensitive to bring up Cows just because UPP is from Ohio! Why all this anger with the Cow versus Pig thing- hasn't your therapist explored this subject matter with you - doesn't it all come from U mama?
