Golf

Alright, so today I decided to try out some disc golf, which is something I’ve been meaning to get into for a while. I went online to see what I’d need to get started, and honestly, it felt a bit overwhelming at first. But after some digging, I figured out the basics. First thing I did was grab a disc golf bag. Not just any bag, though. It’s got these dividers to keep the discs organized, which is pretty neat. I ended up picking up a few different types of…

Well, I finally took that trip to Deep Creek, Maryland, and let me tell you, the golfing there is something else. I’ve always loved a good golf getaway, and this one was no exception.

Okay, so I’ve been meaning to get back into golf for a while now. It’s been years, but I used to play a bit in college. My buddy told me about this “Dad Miller Golf League” thing, and it sounded like a chill way to ease back into the game. I decided to check it out and see what it’s all about. First thing I did was try to find out how to even get into this league. Turns out, joining is actually free, which is pretty sweet. I just…

Okay, here is my story about cutting grey golf balls for sale: So, I got this idea the other day. You know those grey golf balls that nobody seems to want? Well, I figured, why not try to sell them? It all started when I was cleaning out my garage and found a whole bucket of these old, grey golf balls. They were just sitting there, collecting dust. First, I grabbed the bucket and dumped all the balls onto the lawn. I hosed them down to get all the dirt…

Okay, so I’ve been wanting to personalize my golf balls for a while now. You know, make them stand out a bit, maybe add a little flair. I’d seen some folks with custom markings on their balls, and I thought, “Hey, I want to do that too!” So, I decided to get myself a custom golf ball stamp. Finding the Right Stamp First, I went online to look for options. I mean there are tons of these things out there. I was just looking for something easy, you know? I…

Alright, let me tell you about this little project I got into with my Cushman Shuttle 8 golf cart. You know, these things are handy, but safety first, right? So, I wanted to figure out where the heck that reverse warning alarm is located. It’s one of those things you don’t think about until you need it. So, I started digging around. First, I grabbed the manual that came with the cart. You know, the usual stuff, trying to find some kind of diagram or something. There was some info,…

Okay, let’s talk about my time at Colbert Hills Golf Course. You know, I’ve been to a bunch of golf courses, but this one’s got its own vibe. Getting There and Getting Started So, I got wind of this place called Colbert Hills, down at 5200 Colbert Hills Dr in Manhattan.

So, I hit up the Clifton Park Golf Course the other day, and let me tell you, it was quite the experience.

Okay, so, I wanted to mess around with the settings on my Cleveland golf driver, you know, tweak the loft, lie, and all that jazz to see if I could squeeze a bit more distance or accuracy out of it. I heard about this thing called a feral adapter, which sounded just like what I needed. So, I got my hands on one of these Cleveland Launcher XL 2 Driver Compatible Shaft Adapters. First things first, I had to get the old ferrule off. Let me tell you, it wasn’t…

Okay, so let me tell you about this “Calcutta” thing in golf. I heard about it and got curious, so I did some digging and even gave it a try. Here’s how it went down. What the heck is a Calcutta? First off, I found out that a Calcutta in golf isn’t your typical golf game. It’s more like an auction where you bet on players or teams in a tournament. I thought, “Sounds interesting, but how does it work?“ Getting into the action So, I joined this local charity…
