What cheeses me off

I managed to create a nice catch-22 for myself.

I've been struggling with M1 golf driver from the day I bought it 7 years ago. Spent $700 and constantly playing out of trees, bunkers and water hazards.
Save your money and leave the misbehaving driver in the bag and hit 3-wood. Then the only catch-22 is sacrificing some distance for the ease of playing from the fairway. Henrik Stenson won the silver medal at Rio and the Open in 2016 and a truckload of cash with this strategy. A lot of amateurs would do well to do the same.

I don't yet have a 3-wood. Struggle with woods off the deck. I have a 3-rescue.

I've also lost a lot of distance. In the sim at Drummond I was hitting driver from 160yds-215yds. Funny thing in reality it's worse as mostly hit <200yds but all over the place.

I'm really struggling and struggling even more to understand how I went from 17.9 to 14.9 handicap in 8 games with only 2 wipes. Irons getting me out of trouble often.
 
QR .. love hate relationship at check in.

Join the F queue. You can't be here. Ummmm.... I point to the Emerald logo showing on the sign.

No, you have to join the business queue.

No thanks, I'll wait here and walk straight up to the desk thanks very much.

I know in DOH their F check in they will only do F pax, but LHR and PER they tried to do the same. DOH doesn't show Emerald icon. Others do.
