No more beer.

This is becoming a pyrrhic victory.

I have proven some things to myself.

1) TGM is very, very useful as a set of templates accurately describing the forces of an effective golf swing.

2) Even a casual knowledge of TGM can help almost any golfer, a lot.

3) Shooting par is do-able for a non-professional in general, and for a person with an artificial hip in particular, given the insights offered by TGM.

4) After 67 rounds this year, and several hundred buckets of balls, there must be a more efficient way to study TGM and apply its insights.

5) Next Spring, I will reach the "par shooter" designation by "front-loading" my training with at least one 3-day trip to see Yoda, if possible.

I'm sorry Yoda, for not seeing you sooner. I enjoy Westerns and I have discovered that the journey is sometimes as intriguing as the destination. Sometimes, however, there are hostile natives and terrain that is better avoided.


I will be rooting for the Twins and Phillies in the MLB playoffs. I'd love to seethem play baseball with snow packed along the sides of the stadium!
