Ha Ha ... The feeling of being in the zone can be achieved thru many ways. :P

Example: closing a major deal, having 3 of a kind vs 2 pairs for your opponent etc.

Miss those sweet spot hits that feels better than sex. But recently found out that i can get the similar feel trading stocks. When the general market drops, but your porfolio goes up, it really feels better than sex. :mrgreen:


Its gambling addiction. :mrgreen:

The pleasure from either sex and/or gambling high feeds the same part of the brain. :)

P/S. I was with a friend last week. He played 186 games last year. It's a great feat considering that he can't play 4 months because of winter.


wah...8 months = ~240 days... out of which 186 days spent playing golf... amazing... he must really be motivated.... ;)

Saw this nice picture of a golf course in Monterey.

Brought back plenty of nice memories. Monterey is probably one of the nicest places that I have visited. if I have not mistaken, Clint Eastwood used to be the mayor of Monterey.

Anyway, the weather is not so hot today. So I can hit some golf balls today or watch the boats.

It may be a good day to hit some balls today ..

I'm using my wife's driver and surprisingly, I'm hitting it well :D
( Somebody broke my Driver ( the kids ? ) and I have not found the time to repair it )

With the irons, I'm still not consistently hearing the Ping. Maybe I'm hiting it too hard. Maybe I'm hitting it too fast ..Anyway, I'm hearing 802's mantra even when I'm hitting the balls - "make sure the set-up is right !"

While I was reading up on the gambling revenue in Macau last month, it brought many many nice memories of the Westin Golf Course in Macau ..

It's located next to the sea with very nice sceneries.

It's better to play during week-days as the week-ends are very crowded.

Here are some pictures :-

No, I dont think so. Maybe the driver is shorter so I can control it better.

Anyway, one of these days, I will need to fix my driver. Else the caddies and my friends would be laughing at me, when they see me tee off from the blue tee with a ladies' driver :D :lol:

Hmm.... I still have an old "War Bird Big Bertha". But that driver's head is so small compare to the Pings ..
