Lmao!
 

David, very funny!

But now that you mention it, wool and flannel sheets make me feel ehmmmm, comfortable.

Toronto is a great city!
 

I keep forgetting my geography. But I remember

If you can't see the photo, It's my favorite Canadian (OB is 2nd in a very different way :) ), Shaniah Twain.

Thanks City. Shania belongs to the world now. Lets share her ok? Actually, Kev and Jerry may be in closer proximity to Shania's home town of Timmins Ontario than I am in Toronto. Not sure.

They could probably cross at Sault Ste. Marie and make it to the Shania Twain Center in about 16 hours of driving or so. About the same time it would take me drive from Toronto to Atlanta OR now that I think about it fly to Atlanta , play 18 holes at Bears Best and then meet Lynn for a New York Steak and a martini at Houston's then toddle off to bed at the Hotel.

The only thing better would be if we could get Shania to hit Marietta Ga. Maybe she'd hang around Houston's looking for old guys who talk about golf non stop. I hear she's into that kind of thing.

Ah snap you got me off topic again City! Dam, I feel for the Shania thing again.

This is called "Modeling" in the teaching biz.
 

We are modeling a civil community that can talk/joke about lots of fun stuff (like good meals in Atlanta and a talented, beautiful singer) and still be serious and self-critical about golf technique. John, am I missing something, here?

In the end, we only compete with ourselves in golf. This is what life is. I can't be you or Daryl or Lynn. I can do my best to follow their insights to see if they work for me but that produces humility in that they suggested an improvement and it worked for me.

I understand mistrust, believe me, well, try to believe me. :) How do you trust golf teaching in a world where people just lie? Try an idea or insight and if it works try another. Easy peasy.

Lynn Blake and Daryl and OB and the state of MN etc. do not need you or me. Lynn has told me enough in his website with free stuff and videos to get me to par shooting, if I had 4 years to just observe and ask questions. He owes me nothing. People he has taught have given me great golfing insights for free. When I tried to pay the MN gang back, they tolerated me buying dinner and lunch for two days and then just kept giving me stuff! Free rounds of golf, hours of golfing insight free range balls, picking me up from my hotel twice a day... I figured I spent $1000 for the week. Kevin alone gave me about that in his time and instruction, and free golf in the first two days. Gerry gave me as much in many different ways.

The four Mondays after coming back from MN, I probably made another $250 in skins games with what I learned and would have made more but my hcp. fell like a rock! All my hacker friends stayed at a 14 hcp. and at an 11, I had to give strokes to guys I knew were cheating for years. I finally just told people I'll play them straight up or not at all. That was very interesting and a future thread or two.

The world has some dark places and people, no doubt ( like Jeff's basement in Indiana LOL) ! This isn't one of those dark places. These are not sinister people. And guess what John? WE want you to loin our tree-house and put on the decoder ring and learn a few useful insights! And give us a few, too.

City,
8" of snow in my yard at this moment and it is still snowing a bit.
I may have to find some medication to get through this winter. I just recently found Compression on a nearly regular basis and now I cannot watch that type of ball flight until probably mid April.
This is such a downer. Be sure to get a round of golf in tomorrow just for the MN contingent.

feel for you Jerry, it must be a downer indeed

I took the Schnauzer to the range today, while it was 62 degrees.
 

A much older gentlemen sat down to Play with Anna Louisa, our Schnauser, and asked me what kind of clubs I was hitting so I showed him the ZB's. He asked me my hcp. and I mentioned the website, the PLane, the # 3 PP and then beasted some range balls while Hitting and Swinging. Showed him some Basic Motion, too.

I feel a PGA teaching card coming on with multiple LBG certs for a new summer job! How's the tuba, Jerry?

ICT

The LBG certification will be much more important to you from a teaching / playing standpoint. Something I never thought I would say...

The tuba is wonderful. I am subbing with an orchestra this afternoon, brass band rehearsal tomorrow night, brass quintet rehearsal later in the week. At least I have that going for me.
I hear my clubs calling from the back of my car. I think they want to head southeast into Wisconsin where it hasn't snowed yet.

Busiest retired Dude in the North! :salut:
