The “:)” in the title is a nod to the Mouth That Roars’ current run of “Things I Think I Know.” When I consider “think,” there is an element of uncertainty that I don’t wish to risk. In complete contrast, “know” reaffirms that what I relate is certain (even if my readers don’t agree.)<\/p>\n

Things I know I think on September 15th (if there were an ides of September, this would be it.)<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0 Organizing a high school tournament is darned difficult. National and state sanctioning, individual and team competitors and competitions, free swag, course layout, marshals…it all adds up. Hope this works<\/a>!<\/p>\n

2. Coaching high school golf is time consuming. This week alone, I’ve arrived home after 8:30 four consecutive nights. Friday is a one-hour fitness workout, so I think I’ll finally get a chance to see the sun set. However…<\/p>\n

3. Coaching high school golf is incredibly rewarding and nerve-wracking. Watching the guys and girls come in, with pride and fellowship on the line, knowing that the only important results are shared integrity and dignity, is high drama.<\/p>\n

4. The Scramble is a pretty enjoyable way to spend time with three golfing friends of various tendencies. The architecture guy, the power-hitting guy, the short-game guy, the party guy, the score maven…all can have fun at the scramble, provided that the team is all-in when it comes to the goal. Having one hyper-competitive member who won’t budge when it comes to strategy is a dearth and death to the outing.<\/p>\n

5. Posture is the unheralded key to the swing. I find that most ball-striking mistakes can be tied to an increased tilt toward the ball at address. As soon as I stand taller and stick out my buttox, the problem disappears.<\/p>\n<\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
