  What is the difference between insurance and assurance ?

  Insurance - might happen (chance of fire)

  assurance  - will happen (death)

  Do I pass? :)

  Yeah, It just seems like I see it get to within 1/4 " before the ding ,next thing I see is 1/2" late and she goes sailing. 

  Been going on now for about a month , father time you gota love him. I even went to Max server full screen, it made the swing scale about 1/4 longer. Thought that would help ,but nope,

   

  Your using the Nike Irons too....  You are in trouble.

  It's been happening to me for ages.   One or more of these suggestion might help.

  1 -  Start using the max balls

  2  - Don't try to hit Ding....  if close enough to ding either side,  it's still ok.

  3 - As Courteney said...    Play a game or two with Starter Balls....  Then go back to your normal golf ball you use.  The difference in speed is incredible.

  So u have civilian insurance, but u still have to pay, is that how American insurance works.

  Depends on your deductible. High deductible plans are cheaper but there's more out of pocket in a year. More expensive plans lower that out of pocket number so you get to play the odds game. Younger people that think they're invincible and don't think they're going to have medical expenses can get away with it. Older types don't have that luxury and have to step up to the pump.  :-(

  Bingo.  I'm paying the first 4K out of pocket before insurance does anything for me. I went with the high deductible for the monthly budget needed to keep a roof over my family's heads and dinner on the table.  

  I can get the wrist taken care of for nothing at the VA hospital, but it's my WGT hand,  can't risk losing that.  ;-)

  Can't ding the broadside of a barn, but I do notice it being exponentially worse if I have thoughts enter my head or I am thinking about something or something disturbs me.  I try to clear my mind but concentrating on clearing my mind is another thought in the head that causes major misdinging.  Can't win.
