As you may or may not know, the Greater Los Angeles Metropolitan Area gamely braved a Blizzard of epic proportions. I got mine with Crushed Oreos. As much as it was hyped, like most hyped things, it didn't really amount to everything it was hyped up to be. We got some

Tonight's post category was suggested by BFC's comment last week in the inaugural donut post. Thank you to all that provided suggestions and I will be incorporating those into future posts. As I mentioned in the first post, the plan is for this to be an ongoing off-season series on Saturday

Dear Penthouse Forum: I never thought this would happen to me... As you may recall from Volume 8, I decided to go ahead and play 18 holes in order to establish a handicap ahead of my very first tourney. Well, the tourney just happened and guess what? I fucking won. Not only

This post was actually inspired by BFC's Thursday Night Open Thread in which he professed his love for the maple bar. The plan is for this to be an ongoing off-season series on Saturday nights in which I present to you my five favourite somethings and then you comment and

Danger Elbow: A Puppy Injury Tale

Alex_Demote - February 17, 2023February 16, 2023

I got my first Kai Ken in early 2014. They're a special and exceedingly rare breed of ancient Japanese hunting dog that bond very closely to their owners and otherwise don't want much to do with people. For this reason, they're very hard to re-home and breeders are very selective

Given the feedback I received from you in Volume 7, I decided to go ahead and play 18 holes in order to establish a handicap ahead of my very first tourney. I am in a situation at work where I have excess vacation time and if I don't use it, I

As you may remember from Volume 6, I tried the TopTracer setup at the Alhambra Golf Course and thoroughly enjoyed it. Unfortunately, I did not get enough shots on certain clubs to do a real good analysis for every club I use. So I went back. I am happy to report that

Self-Immolation is Overrated

Alex_Demote - February 3, 2023February 3, 2023

I drove 4 hours south of home on Monday, back to the office that I used to commute to daily and have since moved away from thanks to my position transitioning to full-time remote. We're going through an acquisition and their people wanted to understand work that I used to

As you may remember from Volume 5, I wanted to try the TopTracer setup at the Alhambra Golf Course. On a lazy Saturday, I decided to head back and try my luck. This time, the range was open and I was happy to see there were several bays available. When I

It was supposed to rain all day but the atmospheric river must have run dry as it was nice and sunny around noon. Feeling antsy and having planned nothing, I figured I'd go to the range and get some practice in. I had discovered that the Alhambra Golf Course had

On a whim, I decided to head to my local 9 Hole golf course to see if I could get on. It was a cloudy and cold day, so I figured not too many people would be out. I figured if I got on, cool, and, if not, I could

I was looking up tee times at one of my local courses for Thanksgiving Day when I found one for pretty cheap that included a cart. The only problem was that there were only 2 spots available. That means there were already two people playing at that same time. Very much like
