Tomorrrows Opening Day

Sunday went to Coyote Run and hit 60 balls with all clubs off soft mats. Hit em a little better this time, as it was warmer and my hamstrings were getting better. Still a little sore after hard swings. Then I practiced putting and found a trick that appeared to work. I lined up the putter with the top edge of the center marker behind the center of the ball, and it appeared to help me hit the sweet spot of the putter, and the ball rolled better. Then Tuesday after work I went to Odyssey and they said no grass for another 4-6 weeks, so went back to Coyote, and hit 60 more balls, working more on the approach shots and general long irons. Didn't get to the driver, as the soft mats seem to lose every tee. Putted again, working on my new gimmick. Anything that helps your confidence is a plus. My relative called and asked if I could play Thursday after work, but I had to take my nephew to soccer practice. So Opening Day will be tommorow, Good Friday, April 14. I'm sure its the first time I've played on Good Friday. In 2004 on Opening Day I had a 10-foot eagle putt at River Oaks that lipped out. In the 80's at Shady Lawn I whiffed my first shot of the year. What memories will be created this year? Stay tuned and hang on - its gonna be a wild ride.
