Currently on my 7th golf lesson. Been trying to get to a single digit handicap. Play three to four days a week but can't quite get over the hump.

I was 17 living near Clearwater FL, junior year of HS. Driving home one Friday night after going to a party ( nice suburban neighborhood), had my window down and only 1/2 mile from home and a truck pulled up next to me with a bunch of guys in the back....They yelled “I’m going to kill you” and I heard something and felt something hit me in the head...I thought they had thrown a rock ( they U turned immediately and took off)...I put my hand to my head and it was all sticky and wet, and I felt a big lump on top left side of head.....
Somehow with adrenaline I made the drive home, got to my front door and was so shaky I couldn’t get my keys in so banged until my mom came down ( she was yelling at me why I wasn’t using my keys)...She opened the front door angrily than almost fainted as my light colored tee shirt I was wearing was soaked in blood as was my face, neck, etc......
To shorten it up, they had shot me with a 9 mm( thank god nothing bigger) and the bullet entered at the perfect angle to follow the shape of my skull up and lodge under my skin at the top of my head as opposed to piecing the skull into my brain... rushed to ER, shaved head, cut it out, police came, everyone told me how lucky I was, and never figured out who or if there was a why it happened..... crazy story, and very blessed I can tell it 28 or so years later...

I can’t think of anything super interesting so I’ll say this. I’m not much a fan of family holidays such as Thanksgiving or Christmas and am much more of a fan of drinking/grilling out holidays such as Halloween/ St. Paddy’s/ Memorial Day/ Labor Day/ July 4
Who said you can’t grill/drink on Thanksgiving and Christmas LOL
Totally can. Smoked a turkey for Thanksgiving while drinking beer, then wine with the family at dinner. Great day, great [censored] food. Christmas next.

hypogammaglobulinemia
Ngl, I had to google that.
So did I when they first told me lol
Question: Do you have the spelling memorized?
After 5 years of practice!
lol
What is it?Just a deficiency in a few of my immunoglobulins, So I get sick easy. Came out of nowhere in my middle 20s but other than feeling like an elderly man I’ve never felt better jk
Do you have to get IVIG infusions?
Luckily not yet! I heard it’s like chemo with sickness in ppl I’ve talked to but others felt fine.
Compared to chemo it's a breeze. Good health to you my friend!
Have you had the IVIG infusions? And I appreciate it man, good health to you too!

I once won a "most improved bowler" trophy.
You've got perhaps the most irrelevant hardware in the history of sports.

Rookie Mookie Betts card is surely also acceptable here? Before he came an accomplished bowler?

Keep going back even when you know there's a reason the last three trips didn't work out. You're Rickey Henderson.

Consistently playing to a high level, but despite hard graft and good results never quite seem to get where you're hoping to:
