Feeling Great on a Monday for the first time in a Month Randoms
Pretty much the perfect "reset" kind of weekend that I was hoping for.
-Casual date night w/ the wife Friday, El Nopal & Margs on the patio. Dateline DVR.
-Gym Saturday morning, 1st coat on the deck for 4 hours, Masters evening-on
-Walked 18 holes Sunday, 2nd coat on deck, Masters & Grilling from 3pm-on
-Gym this morning, at work by 8:30, and feeling completely normal - ready for a good week.
Needed that.
-Spieth, damn. Saw a stat where Phil would have won 69 of the 78 Masters, and tied 4 more with his effort. Rory almost the same.
One person was winning that golf tournament, that's just the way it goes sometimes. That kid is incredible. Again, golf is a weird game & usually impossible to predict when it comes to players & longevity -- but I feel comfortable saying Spieth is a sure thing, and sure to be a household name for a few decades for the most part.
-I know the weather/conditions played a HUGE role, but wonder if Augusta goes back to the drawing board a bit. Those guys treated that course like it was a random Tour Stop for the most part.
-Tiger/Phil -- again, nobody was going to win *this* week, but how people can say flatly those guys are "done" is beyond me. If they are "done", then I guess so is everyone in the world not named Rory, Jordan, Bubba, and a few select others.
-83 for dad yesterday. Hit the ball surprisingly well, would have putted better with my eyes closed. A few great shots, 2 birdies, and a chip in. Glad to get that 1st round out of the way...always so uncomfortable & awkward.
-Our course is greener now than it was at it's peak last year. Like most places (Bermuda), our course was completely ruined last year.
They over-seeded with, and it came out flawless. It looks like a July course right now...carts even off paths amazingly. The Bermuda will take over the Rye over the next month, and it will be good as new. Pretty interesting how that all works, really.
Oh, and they've added that 'Soccer Golf' to the Par 3 course.
-- should be a fun/random drunk thing to do at some point, hopefully they work it into one of the drunken tournaments somehow...I'm sure they will.
-This weekend's weather ---> the ultimate weather. If there was one weather I'd take for year-round, that would be it -- sorry July/August.
