It was a soggy morning at Smokehouse this morning thanks to a much needed rain yesterday and the usual, poorly timed sprinkler activation on the practice field. There have been some discussions recently amongst the PAX about how we have been neglecting some of the routines that used to be staples at our humble AO. So YHC chose today to revisit a routine Nub Q’d at YHC’s very first post, and to return to an old Smokehouse favorite… Hite Hill. This is how betterment went down at The Smokehouse this am:
