Da Big Kahuna wants to know.....

Okay, well the heat here in Dayton has finally lifted a bit. I haven't played but 1 round since my last entry, but with 95+ degrees and 90% humidity, the game loses some (not all) of it's appeal. Not that I don't enjoy the game when it's hot, but when you can ring out your shirt after just warming up on the putting green, things are a bit unenjoyable. The one round I did play was not that bad, could have scored better, but still had an enjoyable round (and it beat doing yardwork!).

 Anyway...I pose a question to all who have the interest in the game of golf. What music is playing in your mind while you're playing? Does music even play in your mind while playing this great game (or am I just a little on the "touched" side)? I ask this due to the fact that some of my friends and I were just discussing the timing aspect of the game. Timing, like everyone's life, is different for everyone. For example...My swing is a slow take away, at least until the club is parallel with my shoulders, then BAM! It's off to the races. This is why I try to keep music as the "soundtrack" to my game. Somedays it's Jimmy Buffett's "Nautical Wheelers" or "One Particular Harbor". Other days it's a Toby Keith or Kenny Chesney tune. If I am wanting to really get it moving, maybe a little "Tropic of Capricorn" by Sammy Hagar, or something by Van Halen. If it's a round of laughing it up and just having fun, maybe some Iguana's (tex-mex) or something light hearted. No matter what the round, my wonderfully bizarre brain has music playing in the back ground.

Think about it...What music is the soundtrack of your next round? Let me know. Maybe a certain type of music could be found to lower all of our scores.

Til the next time...
