Thanks for that Judge. Great song! I guess I need to confess I have never watched March

Madness, not being a basketball fan. Every year I hear about it as college basketball fans

fill out their brackets and the long tournament begins. 

Down here no one does that or at least in my circles. Now back in the day in Charlotte which was ACC country there were a bunch.

Here there are a bunch of Super Bowl boards. There are at least 5 running in my club alone. And yes even though I normally do not bet on sports I am on all 5. Hope I hit something. But still will not watch the game. I know one of my buds said yesterday between the course , the Moose Club and the 2 other bars he frequents he is on 10 boards.

Don't think I've ever hit a Titleist club. I don't have anything against them or anything. I 

kinda look at them as making clubs for scratch and better golfers. I have just tended

toward companies like Ping or Callaway, etc. that make more game improvement type

clubs. 

That is understandable and Titleist has definitely been intentional about keeping that brand perception. I can tell you for sure that Titleist has something for everyone now, other than the super-super SGI category, so if you are curious, check ‘em out. The current lineup is tremendous. 
 

I have considered off and on doing a 2 day full fitting at TPI in Cali. It’s not cheap — $250 for each: long game, irons, wedges, so that is $750 and the fitting fee does not apply to club purchases. I don’t know if they work with adaptive golfers either — have not gotten serious enough to contact them directly. 
 

Ping has the official adaptive program…I’ve played Ping my whole life and had a great experience there so I’ll probably keep the ho in check on this one. 😂

I wore out my Steve Miller 8 tracks on the way to school in the 70's.

Song of the day ?  Well. It came on the radio this morning. And there it is. The ultimate ear worm.  This isn’t a song I like. Particularly.  But it started years ago on the video game GTA vice city.  If you know. You’ll know.  80s radio Chanel in a car or on a bike.  It was on repeat behind Billy Jean and a few others.  Over and over. I dare you.  But I wouldn’t.  
 

side note. Can’t you just see the cigarette in her hand.  I don’t know why that comes to my mind with bangs and hairspray.  🤣
 

 

 

I remember her hairy armpits in the video.

Good morning.

He did tons and tons of shorts like this and the girlfriend just sat on the bed in the background.

 

 

 

 

 

Then one time, he handed her the mic and wow.

 

 

His nice little hair bun brings back fond memories of my Grandma Netti.

Anyone featuring an accordion (outside of polka) gets extra points! Kinda like bagpipes.

Big Wheel! Ya love your Big Wheel so much you keep trying to ride it even when you to big!

 

The chassis be cracking under you, wheel spinning cause you too heavy, ya can’t even fit

 

No problem! You stand on the Big Wheel!

Oh man, I remember makin big ramps out of miscellaneous pieces of wood that would collapse if ya looked at em wrong. Ride down the street full blast and just go for it! Ya fall, ya go in put some Bactine n a band-aid on the road rash n do it again! 
I can’t recall the last time I saw kids hittin ramps out in the street… Reminds me of talkin a walk on Christmas Day and seeing several kids cruising around on their electric bikes n vehicles not even havin to put in work! Haha

No Big Wheel or Cheetah.  Had distances to travel, people to see, things to do.  Needed a bicycle.  First “real” bike was a Columbia 3-speed.  But the kool kidz were riding 10-speeds. So a Schwinn Varsity was next. Then moved up market to a Super Sport. All financed by my lawn mowing hustle. That coppertone SS was a bad mofo.

Shortly after the Chettah days I got the sick Panda dirt bike. I’d ride all over. Mom just said be home by dark. I fondly remember riding down to the drug store and buying candy 😊

In your situation I would stick with Ping since they have the official adaptive program. They have always been at the forefront on engineering anyhow so I can see where they know their stuff on the adaptive end.

Only owned 2 bicycles in my life. One I kept at Grannie's in the city. Got my first mini bike at 11 it was a Sears with a 5 HP Briggs motor. From that I graduated to a Honda Dream 50 and then to the Italian made Harley trail bikes. I always had my own golf cart which believe it or not was a Sears. When the golf course was built the owner did not want carts but realized he had to have them. The original 10 carts were Sears bought in 1959. By the mid 60s they had been replaced. We had all 10 junked so I had parts to keep mine running. Basically that is where I learned my mechanical skills. Around 14 or so I went "big time" with a Honda 305 Scrambler.

Like you said I had a lot of ground to cover around that golf course growing up.
