Needless to say I got the Van out of there...Still no A/C....I'll stick to the Mom and Pop Establishments Thank You...

While I’m up here at Candace’s place I went to a well known Chevrolet dealer to ask about getting an alignment on my ‘98 Corvette. The service writer looked at me like WTF, then said he needs to ask his manager if they can do it? Keep in mind the car has less than 80K on the odometer and is spotless. After about 15 minutes without an answer I just said F it and left. Found an independent shop about 3 miles from her house and talk to owner who has been doing this for over 40years. Shop was immaculate and equipment was state of the art. Dropped car off next day and $110 later all is good.

Since I do both frequently, it's interesting how many similarities there are. Trajectory, spin rate, spin direction, shot shape, gravity, windage, elevation...
Shooting a scoped rifle 200 yards at a 4.25 inch target is infinitely easier than shooting a 5 iron 200 yards at a 4.25 inch target.
Much is left to the Indian, less to the arrow. I can hand a non-shooter a rifle dialed in and they can usually put a round on paper 9/10. I can hand a 5-iron to a non-golfer and they will shank it 7/10 and the other 3 times they top it.
Also, the guy on the right with the muzzle brake is a dick. :biggrinjester:
Speaking of golf, 25 rounds played in 25 weeks. Breaking 100 every time now. Woke up to a 24.6 HC index. Started with 30.
Here is what I learned:
-You either need to get it on the green every time from 150-200 out, or you need a short flop shot. Pick one. Otherwise you will hop back and forth over the green with that low "chip" you can't stop.
-The game is played with loft. Loft is your stopping power. That's what the trees are about. Keeping you on the ground where you have no brakes.
-You do not have to use your driver because it's a tee box. Only use your driver if it will reduce a stroke on a par 4/5. Use course management. (330 yards equals 5 iron 185, 7 iron 145, putter. Not driver 260, gap wedge 70, putter.) If you can drive the green on a par 4 and eagle, this advice is not for you.
-Always punch low out of trees and take the stroke unless you can 9 iron over cleanly. You will burn three strokes playing the jail side of the fairway.
-The difference between breaking 90 and breaking 100 is penalty strokes. Playing the fairway shorter beats playing a long slice or hook OB.
-If you are missing putts on the low side of the hole on a sloping green you never had a chance. Miss high.
