Harder is Better / by kazh@mindspring.com

Slowly making daily progress with the 4 iron. Today, with dilated eyes, feeling of distance between brain and ball is wobbly so it's like swinging weirdly drunk. Just one drop of stuff in each eye will do it. Secret agent kit for the MI6-KGB Match Play Championship.

Thought then occurs to me that maybe range sessions should be made purposely difficult. Choose small targets. Windy conditions. Hard to hit irons. Bad lies. Lousy balls. Master that, then a nice warm day on a perfectly groomed course has to seem like shooting ducks in a barrel.

Could move to Scotland. Or, wonder if there's a club harder to hit than my 4?
