    Love to see the vids from different parts of the country. the golf courses are definitely one of the characters, that's why the Masters has so much appeal because they present the course as the star. Love that you don't play music or add sound to your vids that is always subjective and bad for business 😀 Thanks for all the good golf and hard work on the vids

    Zac my main man- nice work- I struggle/d with same thing you do in downswing... looks like you have taken right arm out of downswings which helps greatly with club just dropping in behind.... I have been grafting a lot and recently turned corner ... great to see the improvement .... let’s go brother ... Stay safe and travel well in Wisconsin, looking forward to the vids rolling in!

      Totally. If you have to pick just one golf destination in Wisconsin it has to be Sheboygan. No disrespect to Grand Geneva but Whistling Straights and Blackwolf Run are must plays. Plus, the private course in Sheboygan, Pine Hills, is one of the best kept secrets in Wisconsin. Hope you make it back some day.

    @Airplane_Willy 3 роки тому

    I guess I'll answer the airport question since no one else seemed to. It is still in use, but might not be for long as there is extensive cracking on the runway. Which is obviously a bad thing and once the cracking really starts (and Wisconsin winter gets in those cracks, ice, etc) it goes downhill quickly. They're also closed from Dec-Apr (probably because they don't have snow equipment or the budget to maintain it).
