What is 'rotation day'? It's the first day of exercises designed specifically to get my previously injured spine ready for the mechanics of the golf swing.

I've done the cardio. I've done the work to get the core back in shape. I'm doing the heavy lifting. I've put in the work. Here's 30 days of effort. I don't do this to brag; I share it to say, "I've put in the work."

(The workouts include walking - if I exclude that, I still had 28 solid days at the gym out of the last 30).

Rotation day involves doing a series of exercises that twist your body, torso, and spine.

All the things you couldn't and shouldn't do in the early stages of an L1 to L3 spinal fracture.

As I was doing this routine yesterday, I kept reminding myself that to make a bucket list item work, you've got to put in the work. I can't hope to show up in early April, swing a golf club after this situation, and expect a great round. I've got to put to work the muscles that were not put to work, and some of which were battered and bruised in the fall, to work.

On April 6, I'll tee off at the Old Course.

Pure bucket list.

You can't get to a bucket list if the potential for the bucket has been interrupted by circumstances.

You've got to push through the circumstances.

Fore!

Futurist Jim Carroll hopes for 4 days of extraordinary golf at St. Andrews in early April.

Good Morning #Canada
Today, #Golf officially begins, for me anyway as I'm playing 9 holes with my brothers. Canada's 2,400+ golf facilities ranks us in 4th worldwide, and 90% of those are open to the public (versus 75% in the U.S.). It is Canada's most popular sport with over 6M participants, with high rates of growth among women (6%YOY) and Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (33%). It's a $23B industry, mostly due to the golf balls I lose.

Someone is finally starting to notice the amount of the time POTUS is spending outside of Washington DC and what it is costing taxpayers.... according to the Palm Beach County Sheriff ... “We’ve already heard some information where he may be spending more time here than in Washington,”. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/mar/09/trump-golf-trips #golf #POTUS #Florida #PalmBeachCounty #taxpayer #fore
