Most people never get where they want to be in the long term because they are unwilling to struggle or be uncomfortable in the short term.
Those who win are those who are willing to endure. They remember where they are going rather than complaining about where they are.
First green shaping up.
In front and from behind.
11 green from short right.
The simplicity of the tiny(2700 sf)tilty 9th green from just in front.

Rocky IV was once the subject of heavy satire & a lukewarm critical response, but if you ask me honestly, I would tell you that I consider this to be an all-time sports film. This is a beautiful sports movie that nails so main themes. Sly is awesome here too- give him credit.
Nowhere near the greatest but one of my favorites. Thought this was it. Thank god 2019 masters happened, and fortunately nothing bad has happened since to Tiger Woods.
Anyway let’s go Brooks
Top Gun turns 40, so does its scrappy “underdog” alternative, Iron Eagle.
A logic-defying premise that somehow totally works thanks to killer aerial photography, a wildly charismatic Louis Gossett Jr., and a cracking soundtrack. Totally forgot he played music in the cockpit 🤣
Jim Colbert, an eight-time PGA TOUR winner who added 20 titles on PGA TOUR Champions, died Sunday at 85.
Colbert, born in New Jersey, played golf and football in his youth and received a football scholarship to Kansas State University. An injury ended his football career and he pivoted to golf full-time, finishing runner-up at the 1964 NCAA Championship before turning pro.
Colbert was not an overnight sensation on TOUR; he earned just $1,898 across 13 starts as a rookie in 1966. But he steadily progressed, capturing his first victory at the 1969 Monsanto Open in Florida (one stroke clear of eventual TOUR Commissioner Deane Beman) and adding seven more titles, including a two-win season in 1983.
Between his PGA TOUR and PGA TOUR Champions careers, Colbert worked as a golf analyst for ESPN, becoming a fan favorite with his straight-talk approach toward the game. He was a quick success on the 50-and-over circuit, winning three times in 1991 en route to Rookie of the Year honors, and he steadily added to his win total to become one of just 11 players with 20 or more PGA TOUR Champions titles.
Colbert sported a bucket hat throughout his career, largely to protect his skin after nearly collapsing of sunstroke at a tournament in 1957. There was one six-month span in 1970 where he switched things up with a baseball cap, but after discovering that nobody could recognize him, he reverted to his signature look.
“Lee Trevino has the sombrero. Jack Nicklaus has the bear,” Colbert once said. “I have my hat.”
Colbert had another health scare in 1996 when he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, but he had successful surgery and was back to elite form by 1998, returning to the winner’s circle and being named Comeback Player of the Year.
Colbert made 1,091 combined starts across the PGA TOUR and PGA TOUR Champions. Even though golf wasn’t in his original career plans, he made it his life’s work.
Rest in peace, Jim Colbert.
