To bad you arent allowed to smoke a fatty on the golf course. Would prolly improve your game much better than than ruining it by drinking hahaha.

I wish I could say I never took a break but I had to between 02/03 when I lost my eyesight.  IIRC I first started around tour 19/20 something like that,with a different name and I had a few names until about 05.

  Since then I havent taken a break,never needed to as the TA is my arena of choice and I can relax and hopefully pass on a little info to help players along.

  Nah I play by sound!  Just like the pinball wizard!


 Actually Brooke,I had lenses implanted and it improved my eyesight for about a years or so then it has gradually gotten worse. I cant focus,or change focus very quickly it take time for my eyes to adjust and I cant see anything inside about 2 feet,I have to use glasses to read. I had comp glasses made but I found just a bit of movement back or forward and I couldnt see so I opted for a large screen and I sit back about 5 ft from the screen as my distance vision is better than close.

  I still have problems with text,the map etc. but it's much better than when I couldnt see,they took my driving privilage away for about a 18 months and that was a huge relief when I got it back.  I still dont drive much and rarely at night but I can get by.

 Now it I could only find a way to shoot..... Ah life would be good!

Actually Brooke,

Man!  I'm sorry to hear of those vision problems but very, very glad to know that things are better than they were.  My best regards to you, Morfiend, and my sincere hope is that, as medical technology makes great advances (which it is continuing to do), there will be solutions for you as well.

  But.. but I'd have to learn braille,wouldnt I???? :devil


 Brooke, I had lenses implanted,not much more cant be done at this time. I suppose I could get new corrected lenses implanted but I'd need a bifocal lense and I'm not sure that can be done.

  My last visit the doc urged me to get bifocal glasses so I would only need a single pair but I'm waiting since I notice my eyes are still changing.  Soon though I will have no option as my distance vision is starting to go also.


   It's a good excuse to use on SWMBO when I want a new and even larger display.....Hmmm looks like a 70 in display is in my future......... :devil  Ya that's the ticket,Dear I cant see the screen anymore! ;)


  who knows what the future might bring,bionic eyes.....sweet!
