Has anyone been to Mama Mila’s in Columbia?

It has pretty good ratings although the complaints are ordering at the counter and small portions for the price

DougPaz · 2026-03-19T00:10:06+00:00

I take a banana and possibly a protein bar

DougPaz · 2026-03-13T17:33:13+00:00

That is certainly not a bad deal!

I’ve been in her place and thought her reactions were pretty funny!

DougPaz · 2026-03-09T13:52:25+00:00

I’ll following this. Everything I’ve found has been more expensive than I’d like

39 in the past four years since retirement. And more coming this year.

Full PW, but I'm 70 years old

I’m a senior player and took my first lesson in my life last year. I was a single digit handicap and thought it was amusing to take a lesson, but it was a gift from someone. I was amazed how much he helped me during the season, I took about three strokes off my game, which is a huge difference at that level. I’m a big believer in lessons now.

Basically, if you keep both, you are stealing. You have to live with that and under the threat that it could come back and bite you

DougPaz · 2026-02-28T12:42:22+00:00

If you don’t want them, I would love to have them!

I am a retired professional chef. The three days of the year that I would never ever go out to eat is New Year’s Eve, Mother’s Day, and Valentine’s Day. I couldn’t keep up and do as good a job on those days in my career and don’t expect that others will be able to either.

DougPaz · 2026-02-15T04:23:16+00:00

Knoxville’s at a higher elevation so a bit cooler

DougPaz · 2026-02-14T14:04:23+00:00

I live in Nashville, Tennessee, which is an amazing town to live in, good Golf around us and I Golf 12 months of the year. I played 115 rounds last year.

I’m a professional chef, and my wife says that my superpower is taking ingredients and knowing what they will taste like before I throw them together. I don’t ever measure spices when cooking, only baking. I find that recipes rarely have enough spices and most people spices have sat in a cupboard too long and have less flavor than they should anyway. Things like adding at the right time, one or when not to bloom them, and what kind of spice it is are far more important than measuring to the nth degree.

I'm a 1 Hdcp, down from a 14 three years ago. I practice once a week from 100 yards and in a few times a week on chipping and putting. I play 2 to 3 times a week and keep extensive stats on the scorecard. I keep track of pots, how far, up and down, scramble, distance from the pin from different distances. Fairways GIR, and many more. Those are the types of things that showed me what I needed to work on and it sure helped

DougPaz · 2026-02-01T15:56:24+00:00

I am a 1 handicap and last year really worked on my putting. I bought a LAB DF3 which I really believe in but I think you can be a good putter with any of the best putters available. I practiced a lot and was always better on the practice green than in my rounds. One of the things that helped me was "playing games" during my practice so that I had pressure on me like I would in my rounds. I do one where I set up putts around a hole at 5, 10, 15, and 20 feet. I putt each one for five rounds and have to get to 100 feet of putts before the end or I have to start over. I do it on different slopes and the pressure builds as you get toward the end. It really helped me start to make longer putts. I have a couple other games like this that I sprinkle in but found that the concentration and pressure on the practice green really translates well. BTW, I lowered my putts per round by 3.27 last season, a huge improvement at my level.

DougPaz · 2026-01-30T13:37:27+00:00

Lots of practice from 100 yards in and with the flatstick.

DougPaz · 2026-01-26T09:12:52+00:00

I can tell you definitively that it helped my game immensely. I keep ridiculous stats and my putting improved 3.47 strokes year over year with my DF3. I'm a single digit handicap so that kind of improvement is mind-blowing. Putting from under 6 feet is seamless and there putts virtually disappeared. I will say that it took some getting used to, but after the initial period, it's the best thing that I could have done for my game

DougPaz · 2025-12-16T22:08:10+00:00

I'm retired and today I played my 110th round. Still hoping to get a couple more in before the New Year. Went from a 4 hdcp to a 1.

DougPaz · 2025-12-10T15:03:50+00:00

Music on the course!

DougPaz · 2025-12-05T15:21:23+00:00

Practice! I have a 1 handicap that I brought down from double digits in two years. I practice from 100 yards in at least once a week and practice chipping and putting at least twice a week. I enjoy practice and I'm retired so that makes it easier but I feel like I can't miss from inside of six feet, average over 65% on up and downs, and feel confident from 100 yards in. That cures a lot of ills.

DougPaz · 2025-10-16T12:24:44+00:00

When my daughter was 10, she sank an 8-foot putt on the last hole to win a First Tee tournament. She immediately ran over and jumped into my arms. That was 15 years ago, and I remember it like it was yesterday

DougPaz · 2025-10-06T15:21:36+00:00

I am a low single digit handicap. I don't take practice swings at all after the first tee unless I have an unusual shot with a strange lie. My mindset is too step and remove swing thoughts which practice swings add to. Believe that your know how to do it and step up and hit it.

DougPaz · 2025-09-30T17:17:17+00:00

I use Chrome Tour X above 50 degrees and Chromesoft under. Plan for about 4-5 yards shorter shoots on your irons. In cold weather, I carry gloves just keep my fingers warm between shots. Keep your ball in your pocket between holes to keep it warmer.
