  MAN!! For the last two days, I can't seem to pull the trigger on the "ping"! I need to get back into the zone. Hopefully soon. Who else's trigger finger ain't working right lately?

  My trigger finger has never worked. The only time I seem to hit the white line is when I want to be a little early or late. I don't think I could average 25% of hitting that white line since being here. My game revolves around knowing this, accepting this and hitting the next shot without expecting otherwise.

  Try snapping your fingers during a practice swing when you release the mouse button.  You will get a sense of the timing for the meter that way.  Generally, I take practice swings when ever I feel it is necessary to judge the speed of the meter.

  Over the xmas holidays (2 weeks) I was hitting the white line an average of about 80%. Since then I have lost the knack, about 50%, don,t know whats happened.

  Holy catfish!   If I could ding it even 40% I know I could shoot a 60. 

  I get it 10 - 20% of the time, must be doing something wrong I guess.  50 - 80% is a dream for sure.  Maybe that is the Rapture effect, especially combined with a G ball it must be nice and really slow.

  Mine is self inflicted. I bought new irons, putter and hybrid. The good news is with a little practice, I hope to get the timing down. Until then, 9 hole rounds of +10 are not uncommon

  Well Duffer, those "4 pints" might be what caused your average to go up.  :)

  Yep cowboy, I noticed that typo after I hit the send button and said to myself, maybe thats what I need, have a couple before each round. Then if I do bad again I'll just laugh it off and have a couple more. lol
