Ball could be to far back in the stance, which is causing a descending blow. Drivers now you almost want to hit on the upswing, the launching spot is not right in the center of the face but just above the center.

You may also require a shaft with a higher kick point.

Might want to have the golf club shaft looked at too.

Put up an 80 at Cog Hill #2. Played from the whites, which definitely helped. Course was in great shape. Greens were not as fast as the putting greens. The starter even warned us about this. Didn't matter as I had a couple of three-putts. Great weekend overall for golf.

89 at Woodbine on Saturday morning, 4 pars and a birdie....and 3 double bogeys on the front 9. Ended up with a 42 on the back 9, was really hitting the ball well after about the 5th hole.

Played 9 quick holes at Boughton Ridge Saturday morning. Hit the ball all over the damn place, but still managed some decent shots. Was under par for awhile.

Frank, what do you think of Woodbine? Solid course?

It was in pretty decent shape. Its short and scorable. Ive liked it the 2 times I played it. Its kind of a weird set up because the front 9 starts out with two par 4's, then its par 3, par 5, par 3, par 5, par 3. There are a couple of par 4's on the back 9 that have some length to them.

If we are playing a long course, then I will be a captain's pick.

We should play it at Woodruff. Couple drivable greens, good scoring chances, cheap beer specials.

CSFMB Ryder Cup at Cantigny or Cog. Neither place would know what to do with us misfits. After one round, we'd be banned from the course.

We could just name it "The STU-GOTZ Cup" and be done with it.

Then again, I would be weary as to the contents of said cup.

The STU-GOTZ Memorial Trophy. Not just in honor of STU-GOTZ, but in honor of all fallen away CSFMBers.

Probably. If not, check Costco. The store has everything from food to big screen tv's to caskets. I don't see why they wouldn't sell trophies.

'Twas a play on Stu's love of Kohl's.

In all seriousness, trophydepot.com is a great place to make stupid trophies.

Completely forgot about that. I think that was in my lurking days. (Insert joke here)

Ask shakes. I'm sure he's used that for his Thursday Night A-League Championship trophies in the past.
