I am washing my hands 137 times a day.
Hey Shack, that means that there is a lot of alcohol and even detergents being absorbed into your bloodstream, so much so that if you take a pee, then it will clean out your toilet.

So more spare time on your hands. :bounce:

Social distancing advice is to stay 2metres apart. If you avoid sharing an electric cart and avoid the clubhouse, this distancing is possible on a golf course. What do others think?
Why not walk the course? It is what golf should be all about. Plus more safe distancing among your foursome. Just do not putt out and a gimme should be within 6 feet of the pin.

Also noticed that Annandale was open last week, when I drove by. Not sure if they have now shut down.

Multitasking.

Anyone here play World Golf Tour?

http://wgt.com
I tried to play golf on this site. Seems like they are allowing you to "rent" the clubs and golf bag for now. Not sure if you can continue doing so, or having to "purchase" your golf clubs and balls. But if you want more distance from your clubs, then you have to purchase the "VIP" clubs. Doubt that I will purchase anything from this site. All the same, not a bad site to try out this frustrating sport.

I've been playing off and on for a few years, never spent a dime. I've earned a few free one-day rentals for achieving certain goals, but I'm still pretty much playing with a "starter" set.
I'd rather work my way up, rather than buy the best clubs and balls. That would be like creating "all-star" players on Madden, MLB, or NHL and winning every game you play by huge margins.

Any courses that you suggest? My golfing buddies mentioned Pebble Beach and so I tried it. Was very challenging and annoying when I lost all the balls in the sea. Then I was instructed to purchase the balls from the pro shop. Of course I could not get the Callaway Balls for free, and had to settle for no name brands. LOL. Then the game had to be restarted. But thank you to the mulligans, I hit 76 when I had to restart the Pebble Beach Course and also ultimately earned 20 credits. Doubt that I will be able to even come close to this score on an actual golf course, as I have only played this sport when it involved tournaments paid for by the Outside Suppliers and it was the "Best Ball". But then it was all about free food, alcohol and prizes. LOL!

I mostly play the unlimited stroke play tournaments every month that are free to enter. Got my best scores on St. Andrew's and Kiawah in Hilton Head down to about +8-10.
Started playing a round at Bethpage Black this morning and gave up after 6 holes. LOL
Haven't played a round head-to-head against anyone in my friends list in a while.

It is a good thing that I watched the videos on Twitch prior to playing. Very effective in using the right clubs and types of swings like Punch or Chip etc and then taking the wind speed as well as the rough / bunker ball "burials" into consideration.

Mind you I did take advantage of the mulligans when you play in the practice mode. I will switch to the tournament mode and try to see how well I can do. LOL.
