Last of my Mount Rushmore posts, at least for awhile, here come the hybrids! A category near & dear to my heart, I hope you enjoy this trip down fairly recent golf memory lane. So, here we go! ⛳️🧵 (1/6)

Very sad day. Our dear Bella girl was diagnosed with cancer about a month ago. When she woke up it was obvious it had taken a serious toll overnight. Still she was calm, happy & a GREAT dog until the very end. We love & miss her.

Very sad to report that our dear Jack passed away yesterday afternoon. He lived an amazing 14 1/2 years & was strong, loving & caring to the very end. Jack was just the best, good boy you could ever imagine. We love & miss you Jackers! ❤️🙏🥺

Player: What do we have in?
Cutter: No wind, 77 yards to a back pin. You got this.
P: Hmmmmm, that’s right between clubs. A stock 62° goes 75 yards but a normal 60° goes 80. Tough spot. What do you think?
C: 😳🫣

Random good golf thought of the week: New bag, 4 new clubs, 3 new head covers & 1 making a return… Locked & loaded for my round today! Might be time for an updated what’s in the bag too. 🤔

I didn’t take many pics (you know, trying to live in the moment plus I paid good $$ for a professional to get photos) but here’s proof my super daughter & now official SIL tied the knot last night. Amazing & memorable day. 👰♀️🤵♂️💍❤️

Random good golf thought of the week: Set a goal to play 52+ rounds this year (same goal for the last 15 years or so actually) & round 53 of 2023 will be tomorrow! 🎉 I love to play this crazy game. ❤️ How many rounds are you at? How’re you doing on your golf goals? ⛳️

New day, new challenge! Hoping to drive it like yesterday & basically do everything else better. Regardless, great to be on the course with my son.

I have much to be thankful for! The last few days with my sons & two of my brothers on fun, scenic golf courses has been a great reminder of my many, many blessings. I hope you have a great day with food, family, fun & good memories. 🙏❤️🦃

Last round of 2023 with my favorite foursome! ❤️🙏 Special day with great shots, memories made & would have been a special score too if I could’ve got any putts to drop. 🤷♂️⛳️

Love this pic of me & my two youngest from yesterday. Neither are serious golfers but we had a great time at the range & finished with a little putting battle.

I read this week that the

Random good golf thought of the week: This morning I made a tee time for next Friday when my sons will be in town. Few things in life are better than quality time with those you love, playing golf, having fun with the sun on your face. So looking forward to next week! ❤️⛳️☀️
Random good golf thought of the week: I got a new wedge today. Pretty excited about it, so here’s a pic. Well, what I can show. 🦈🫣

Well, one of my many brothers (Phil) careered it today. Broke 80 for the 1st time & shot 75!!! Yes his new driver, irons & putter are working well. No it wasn't at a member-guest. 😏

Great news! And a reminder to all of seasoned, hard core golf friends...
BE KIND TO NEW GOLFERS!
Help them feel welcomed. Don’t make a big deal out of things they don’t know/understand yet. Golf is a great, fun game for life, but only if they come back for a 2nd, 3rd, etc. time.
Latest from National Golf Foundation: 97% of U.S. courses open. Plus, "a surge in participation among beginning golfers and those who haven’t played in a while. Course operators seeing new faces, retailers moving an unusually large number of beginner (boxed) sets."
