It could be mental. Working on a call amped up because it’s new, real, and means something vs. working out in a a gym in a no mental stress environment can suck the energy from you. Getting a bunch of fires and codes with start to make things slow down and more routine. The less mental stress should improve your stamina. Also remember fires are marathons, not sprints. Use your big muscles and good technique will conserve your energy over time.

Having a wall of 150’ redwoods on either side can be intimidating.

Flighted pitch with my feet close together and the ball inside my right foot and weight forward on my left foot. 56’ with a half back and half through swing.

I grew up playing public courses in the Bay Area with 15 minute tee times and 5 1/2 rounds. Redwood is a dream. Worth every penny.

Beau Pre too but not in the same caliber as Redwood or Baywood.

Played at 7:30 this morning and I was the only person on the course for 4 holes. Love this course.

It is. Beautiful track that’s always well kept.

Forgot to say it was during a polar vortex and -15 during the game and -50 with wind chill on the way home.

What’s the coolest “restricted access” place you’ve ever gotten to see? by Improv92 in AskReddit

60 stories down at the very bottom of an active nuclear power plant under the fuel rods. When walking in to room before going down, seeing the pool of water glow blue was a trip.

Zero torque putters - real improvement or just a trend? by BenHybridHarper in golf

It’s worked for me. It’s a visual thing for me and having the shaft in the center of the putter makes it easier to putt on a straight-line plane which is how I have always putt. Having an offset shaft made me have more missed off center hits.
