Thank you! Give me so much hope for what I had planned… not! Lol. But keeps my ideas in check. I have noticed the sinking 16 months later. Grass is surviving, but not thriving. So I appreciate the explanation on why that’s happening.

I think a raised flower bed or letting the weak grass grow are my best options for the time being.

I just used Pelican Roofing. Absolutely would recommend in the Slidell area.

Save yourself a lot of time and some money and just call an exterminator. I fought that battle for way too long and it was maddening. I called LaJaunie’s here in BR and it was the best decision I ever made. $230 up front and a monthly fee. Haven’t heard them since and all my other little bugs and flies are gone! Which wasn’t an issue, but nice to not have fruit flies from a banana you just bought 2 days ago ??

I always tell myself to accept a partner when the Marshall asks and I’m glad I do. I always enjoy the company even if I don’t seek it out.

But one time was unlike any other. My buddy and I were paired up with someone who said they were a scratch golfer at Doral who was there on a bachelor party. He was talking shite about the rest of the groomsmen who stayed out late to drink and passed on a tee time at Doral.

He was strait laced and living up to the “scratch golfer” title until the back 9. At some point he went to pee in the bushes and we looked over to see him ripping a line off his finger. Dude became a wild card for a few holes til he pulled out a joint a couple holes later. He was legit for awhile and I was here for his vibes on the back 9… didn’t mind any of what we saw tbh. But he went from scratch golfer to Wyndham Clark at the open in the blink of an eye. We were here for it

Bopper, did you pull the trigger on one?

I try to play a round differently than I normally would. That could mean anything from different tee boxes, only using certain clubs in the bag, best ball against myself, etc. Just something to keep it fresh and remember it’s just a game. Usually when I play bad it leads to frustration and I try to get over that quickly, and doing that tends to help.

THIS! I found myself one time getting frustrated with my 7 year old daughter because she would make a good swing and then change everything the next swing. I looked up some pointers and blogs and realized at that age, it’s just important to expose them to it in a fun way. In order for them to eventually get good and take lessons, they first have to want to keep doing it.

As stated by other posters, the fact that they’re spending time with you is enough. I got into golf because it was an opportunity every few days to go out with my dad. Eventually I found something fun to do (play near the pond, throw golf balls close to the hole, etc.) And then it just grew from there.

But the water balloon thing… my daughter loves it!!

I was gaming the G400 for a long time and just recently upgraded to the Cobra LTDX. It’s pretty awesome and shockingly forgiving (especially coming from a Ping). I also wanted to stay somewhat in your price range, hence why I went with last years Cobra model. It was $300 brand new.

Also, if you’re in BR, the local Edwin Watts has a bunch of Demo drivers for sale. I want to say the G425 is $350 for a “like new” version. Plus you can hit it in the bay before buying.

My wedges go 46, 50, 54 & 58. I barely use the 58 and would be just fine taking it out of the bag.

I would second this. I added a 60 and would be fine removing it. I’ve practiced multiple shots with my Gap and 54 degree and just become extremely comfortable with those. Am I able to hit every shot with those lofts? No… but I realized I save a lot more strokes being ultra comfortable with those clubs. The 60 just has too many variables that can cost me shots

Once that coating is on (I assume I would paint the inside?), could I frame it out and use standard fiberglass insulation? Thanks for your input! Really appreciate the insight.

I used sunlight contractors and couldn’t recommend enough. They were amazing. Open cell spray foam in attic for an old home. 2,200 sq ft back in 2021. It was $1.84/sq ft
