I wish we were already in Milwaukee. It's getting pretty hard to focus on work and routine. We have two big decisions yet to make: (a) do we take our dog, Ozzie, with us; and (b) should I spend a couple of days practicing with my two new 10 Meter Crossfire putters and take the risk of changing putters so close to the competition.
We'll be leaving Ann Arbor early Sunday morning for the ~6-hour drive. Then we'll find the Skill Shot competition location, compete in it, and check into our hotel. Monday will be mixed doubles - 23 teams.
The singles competition begins on Tuesday. Sheila and I got pretty lucky there, since her division and mine are both in the G Pool, so we will be on the same course and at the same time, every day, making transportation easy. (And we're taking Clifford the Big Red Truck (Suburban) instead of Cliff the '63 Corvair convertible, so that we can offer more people rides.)
Partly because of my working trip to Chicago that just ended, I have had nearly zero practice. We hope to get a round in at Hudson Mills later today. If we do, that will be our last round prior to the mixed doubles on Monday. I haven't played a round in more than two weeks and have had no putting or driving practice time.
