I never lay clubs off the green. I either return to my bag or lay them on the pulled flag stick. Every time.Quote:

IDK. You need to know you opponent I guess. This one friend does not do so well when you’re a nicehole. I think he becomes a little complacent. But, if you start provoking him by talking shit he’ll kick your ass.Quote:

I haven't played since last October, haven't swung a club even until the first hole here, so I was pretty happy with an 82, with 4 birdies and almost an eagle. The membership here is amazing. For the most part you can play 12 months /year and it's $185 /month, AND you get every RTJ course in the state and all the range balls you can hit.

This was my favorite hole, par 4 3rd or 4th. I put my drive 4 feet from the water right up the gut. Didn't think I could get there.

Birdied this guy. 7 iron to 6 feet.

This was a cool hole. Pic is from 100 yards off the tee box and you had to fly the gorge on the left there. I put mine as far as you could around the corner about 8 feet in front of the gorge. I thought it was in the shit, though and reloaded, only to put my second proV1 WAY in the gorge all snappy hooky style.

Super downhill par 3. I put one in the drink.

Split fairway par 5. Left was pretty impossible. Driver, 3h to 20 feet, rimmed the putt and left it 2 inches away for birdie. Still reeling after that one a little.
Attachment 140448
Can't see my ball because it's too close to the hole and the pin is in the way. Birdie #2 on the par 3's.

It bothers me more when Phil applauds Justin Rose for coming back and beating him in the Ryder Cup, but yes, I know that feeling. Also, when a crappy golfer says great shot, when it really isn't. I just say thanks and move along, but it irks me a little. I developed that little pet peeve when my mom started playing and she'd say it about anything that got more than 10 feet in the air.Quote:

The course was really awesome, especially when I walked up to the counter and they said, that'll be $42 with cart, at 8 AM. I guess it was cheap day and they had a half off thing going on. The greens at this place were, aside from ball marks due to all the rain and being really soft, they were perfect. It's been a long time since I liked greens that much. I have to admit though, I'm making a concerted effort to stay away from bermuda grass. Fuck that stuff.Quote:

It's amazing how much good putting can mask oh so many flaws.
Love the golf trail. Did a week long 12 guy trip there 8 or so years ago. Had no idea it was that inexpensive and you got everything. Good shooting.
Fucking golf, it's like that hot chick that's way out of your league, but she did you one time and now she just teases you. Finished T-30 in the state mid-am, only one four putt and 3-4 three putts for two rounds. The good news is I get to play with 50+ crowd soon.
Tough break. Sorry it wasn't your day. Golf, such a fickle mistress. Golf - An exacting activity that is quite hard to predict and impossible to perfect. Like life.
Took my 13 HC to the club yesterday and won big shooting a boring 37 for nine. 6 pars, 2 boge's and a chip in bird. My new slower, shorter swing was in sync delivering more distance AND accuracy. And I had the luck.
Playing tomorrow for the first time since Aug of last year when the same customer invited me to play in their employee outing. 18 hole Country Club course along the Lake. Cart and fortunately they go with the best ball scramble format for hacks like me.

believe me, i have no problem going a round in silence. nothing wrong with just being civil on occasion.Quote:

Funny stuff. It is like a reverse cock blocker.Quote:
