    Headed to Scotsdale

    Headed to the high desert for 3 days of golf after Christmas.
    This should keep my wife happy for at least a few months.
    I will be playing 3 days in a row for the first time in a long while.
    I look forward to a little warmer weather and some golf.

    We'll be there at the end of February visiting my Sis. I usually sneak in 18 holes. 2 years ago, she hooked me up at the Phoenix Country Club That was nice!

    A little nicer today. 54-55 with on and off clouds and sun.
    Nice day and a little better round of golf.
    Birdied No. 2 and had hope but that was the last one.

    Boss said he might be sending me out there in February or March for some training. Don't really want to ship my clubs over, most golf courses rent some decent clubs there?

    Yes. Most here are used to visitors without clubs.
    It is a destination golf spot.
    That will be prime time.
    Negotiate some golf fees now if you can.

    Got 3 rounds of golf in Scotsdale. And on green grass which was much better than dead Bermuda.
    4 rounds in 5 days counting Sunday at the club here.
    All in all I feel pretty dang good considering I haven’t played that many rounds all of the 13 months prior to this.
    Driver is going well, in fairway but not consistently long as before.
    Irons are getting their distance back to normal but accuracy is not there yet.
    Touch on chips is not all that bad.
    Putting is pretty good as well.
    So why is breaking 90 so tough?
    I just need to keep playing and get my touch back. I can’t be impatient at this.
    Stamina still needs work as I seem to lose some gas about 14 or so for a few holes.
    Work slow but keep working and I will.
    I still love the feel of a good shot well played.
    That will be enough to keep me playing!

    Yeah, most of the courses have rental sets. Desert golf is fun.
