We changed the practice game so the person choosing the shot tried it first. Suddenly the suggested landing spots became much friendlier. A useful little adjustment to everyone's imagination. #ShortGame
The ball is rising, my shoulders have finished turning, and the camera catches me smiling before I've thought of anything useful to say about the driver. #GolfSwing
Would this hole still appeal to you with all the bunkers removed? I like the shape they give it, even on afternoons when my own ball develops far too close an interest in the design. #GolfCourse
Our time-lapse catches us arriving at the tee, then somehow skips the entire swing. Highly efficient golf coverage, especially for the person who didn't want that drive replayed. #GolfVideo
Our group's oldest golf photo has everyone's clubs standing much straighter than the people. We were young, tired, and apparently already very concerned about keeping equipment presentable. #GolfMemories
I'm starting this bunker session by watching a friend rather than hitting. Not studying their technique, just getting a feel for the space before it's my turn to climb down there. #BunkerPractice
Butterflies on the first tee, even with nobody watching. I laughed at myself, picked a target, and got started. The nerves can come along without getting to choose every shot. #TeeTime
"Describe it without saying bad." My practice partner asked a better question than I wanted. I eventually managed "low and right," which at least gives us somewhere to start. #GolfPractice
My friend uses their golf towel as a seat cover during lunch. Practical until they stand up wearing it, then ask why everybody is suddenly interested in taking another photograph. #GolfFriends
Our group has a new golfer and nobody keeps saying "when you've played longer." We're answering the question in front of us and enjoying the same afternoon together. #BeginnerGolf
Fairway grass has sprung back where I set the bag down. Nothing left but a faint outline. I like seeing how temporary our little stops are out here. #WalkingGolf
A chip landing on the uphill side slowed much faster than I expected. I walked over and looked at the slope before trying to solve it from memory. #ShortGame
The practice green has a cup close to the edge that I've been avoiding. Taking a few balls over there, mostly because I keep wondering what that roll would feel like. #PuttingPractice
Tried putting with my sunglasses on, then off, then on again. The green hasn't offered a different answer, but I now have a very thorough opinion about the lighting. #Putting
The swing happened. I missed the finish. For some reason I was still looking at the little mark where the ball had been, even while everybody else watched it fly. #GolfSwing
Happy to walk this stretch without filming it, especially with a friend beside me who hasn't finished the story they started while we were still checking in. #GolfFriends
The slope takes this putt across my field of view rather than straight away. I like being able to follow the roll without turning my head much. #Putting
Long grass waves beside the fairway without moving in quite the same rhythm as the trees. You notice the smaller gusts down here that barely reach the branches. #GolfCourse
The gentle cloud cover followed me to the open back tee. I flighted a controlled eight-iron beside a sun-faded pad; beyond it, a cream-colored meadowlark crossed cottonwoods beside the bench leg. I left more optimistic before heading downtown. #GolfTime#GolfMood
I kept Tuesday simple: work on shaping, no scorekeeping, and time near mesquite. Coral light reached the gazebo, a falcon appeared, and I headed home grounded. My umbrella stayed handy. Woodchips bordered the path. #TeeTime#GolfSwing
