Yesterday I visited the Japanese Coast Guard Training Ship “Kojima”. It pulled into Honolulu on Thursday for a brief visit. I was invited on board and given a tour around the ship. It is so clean, I could not believe it. The ship is a training vessel and has around 60 cadets on it and a seasoned command to teach them. On Monday, I will give them a tour of my office and show them how the US Coast Guard conducts rescues.

I have been golfing quite often and I seem to be getting better but there is always room to improve.  That’s the great thing about golf there is no such thing as perfect golf.  It’s all about self improvement.  You can hit 3 bad shots and 1 excellent shot and still be par.  My short game is getting much better but I need to work on control with my clubs.  I think right now my biggest obstacle is my driver.  I have no idea as to where the ball will go.  Even though you think this would severely hinder my progress, it doesn’t.  In golf the saying is “putt for dough and drive for show”.  Meaning that your long clubs don’t really help your score but if your short game is bad it’s all bad.  You can still put up a decent score when your not hitting the ball well with a great short game.  Hitting your long clubs well though does give you some confidence.  Right now I have been shooting a 95 my goal for the time being is to consistently shoot 85.  I am currently taking lessons and I think it’s really coming together.  Some of the changes have been dramatic.  The changes to the grip are the hardest to get used to.  I will try harder to improve but it requires a lot of time.
