Thanks Charley!! We appreciate it man!!

Golf is easy to make a decent score (relative to your skill level) by playing conservatively but to score tour lowest you need to take a bit more risk. I guess the real skill is knowing when you can push and when you need to be patient.

I’ve commented before but I love it. My biggest mistakes are leaving myself too much to handle when I miss the green. That safe chip shot is what I lack every time. You bounce back so easily, something I have to get better at. So many rounds I could broken 80 but I just blew a few holes up.

Did you lose those balls actually? I assumed you did, but looking back it's not clear whether you took an unplayable or lost it

not under standing why your hitting a hybrids off the Tee box on 350 something yard par fours when its just a clean straight shot to the pin down hill even ,, just setting yourself up for longer second shot in to the green ,, second shot is always way harder then a Tee shot ,, and if your drivers not working why wouldn't u just use a 3w ,,, like i said not understanding the whole hybrid thing

I was hitting driver so bad on the range, everything was a huge hook so i was hitting hybrid just to get it in play.
