With The Masters in the books, spring just around the corner, and schedules being developed, it is time to work on my golf game. With a 6 month break from playing golf, I find that I sometimes have to relearn my golf swing. It does not take very long, but some goofy swing faults do rear their ugly heads and as such, I need a way to banish them to the abyss. Unfortunately for many players, these faults are hard to eliminate than they think. Alas, I have found a way forward that all golfers can use to improve their overall golf game.

We Are Not Out Of The Woods Yet!
Spring is a difficult time in my area. For the most part, we expect that warmer weather will increase our chances of our local golf course opening. But, alas that is not true. Starting tonight, we are expecting another blast of winter. It makes many golfers in my area sad because that will push back opening day at least a week. Unfortunately, that is part of the seasons in my area.

Happy Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day is special. It reminds most of us that expressing our love to that special someone is important. I have been married for almost 38 years to the most kind, loving, and understanding woman. I thank my blessings everyday that she ins in my life. I love my wife, Teri, to the moon and back!
One of the many blessings I have received in my life is the support my darling freely gives me to pursue my golf passion. She understands how golf influences my life and how it makes me feel. Hence she encourages me to play and practice. Teri is my rock and foundation on and off the golf course.
I am confident there were times I did not recognize the contribution my darling made to my golf game. She was patient and understanding when I took the time to practice and play. For this I am ever grateful.
Valentine’s Day is a special time that reminds people to express their love to each other. In my case, I try to express my love to Teri on a daily basis; it is what we do. It is not hard because she is the center of my universe. I hope everyone has a great day and if you are on the golf course, have fun and play well.
