    I need cut a few strokes off my game, Bushboytheyoungest beat me by four yesterday when he carded a 36. I've been bested by the boys six times this year, next year will much worse. The thirteen year old who cleans kennel for me out drives me 75% of the time (sigh). I think he will shooting par or better regular like very soon.

    When I played IP with Hawk, on the 9th hole I found a 5 iron right next to where my ball ended up. Problem was, my ball was in a bunker, and said 5 iron was right next to my ball, which happened to be in a completely unraked bunker, just nestled into the blokes foot print. I wasn't sure if I should throw his 5 iron in the nearby lake or turn it in.

    I turned it in. Made bogey. Fucker.

    Pricks like that are part of why I've pretty much given up the game. I don't need some old fuck rushing to play 36 that day pushing along a perfectly reasonably paced round and then listen to his middle school bullshit as he plays through.

    Where's the putting green ?
    I built one at my house a few years ago .
    It was time consuming and expensive to maintain .

    Saw this link for personalized golf grips. Made me remember about old school personalized skis. But, these are not permanent.

    Hmm, I do sort of need new grips...

    Wasted about an hour last night on the Cleveland custom wedge website... Boy, if I only a. needed a new wedge set and b. had $600 to blow, I'd be all over that.

    A few pictures from Manzanita OR golf course. Just a 9 hole, but fun nonetheless. This place cost me NINE dollars to play. The beer was ONE dollar.

    First hole. Straight and to the point.


    Cape Cod style houses along the fairways.


    The par 3's were all pretty long. Shortest was 165. This one was 220.


    5th hole. Picture doesnt do it justice. 280 to the hole. 70 feet down.


    9th hole. 230 yards. Creek in the middle, water to right. Brush on the left. Immaculate yet moderately spoongy greens. They rolled true.

    Hey, anybody still hitting a wooden driver? Now that i'm playing lots and have a real game I would love to hit something my dad played with and see how it hits. I was in NH the other day and the course had a bin of old clubs for 6 bucks each. Bam I pull out an old woody that turns out to be a George Izett. Really high end hand made club that was crafted where I grew up. Snead played with one. Too bad this one was beat to shit. The club head looked tiny!

    Shot 68-77 in my club championship. Pathetic putting both days, especially day 2 with three 3 putts in a row. Leading after day 1, but finished 3rd. I'm ready for ski season.

    Not still but did. Sweet spot smaller than a dime. 150 yard slices were common. The big guys on tour hit 240-260.
    A few people feel the rain. Most people just get wet.

    still hit a 2 wood every now and then. its my tempo club as the shaft is whippy as hell and you have to slow down to hit it. if I can slow down, this club feels great when you hit it...... not so much when you try and kill it as it rolls 50 yds into the woods

    Got out to play 18 this weekend in KC as was in town for a FF draft. Deer Creek was the place, not a bad lay out but in some tough shape as they have alot of tourneys. Greens rolled real true though....

    So I tell the wife " the only reason I go to mo.co is for burials , court and to play golf " .
    She responds " the way you"ve been playing lately , what's the difference " .
    And I said " I aint dead yet , can I see your tits later "
    She said " you're lucky you're not dead "

    77 at Poppy Ridge today in a strong wind. Solid round for me on very difficult course at 6900 yds. I'm fighting flu so my expectations were probably low which helps.

    Well played sir!!!
    Something about the wrinkle in your forehead tells me there's a fit about to get thrown
    And I never hear a single word you say when you tell me not to have my fun
    It's the same old shit that I ain't gonna take off anyone.
    and I never had a shortage of people tryin' to warn me about the dangers I pose to myself.

    was killing the putting yesterday. iron game not so much. one par. mix of singles and doubles. no triples, which i was very stoked on. saw a cow moose and calf on the 5th tee box, which caused a slight delay. 92. felt good. hopefully play again tomorrow

    Tye, how did it go? Played my 4th round of the year there, partner and I finished tied for 4th at 4 under. His shoulders were probably pretty tired, but I got inside him with wedges 3 times, and made a few putts. Tougher this year, faster greens, tees back to the blues from the whites and some good links style wind.

    Got to play Shooting Star on Thursday, client invited me, pretty great Fazio layout, super cush. 1 birdie, 5 pars, and an assortment of ugly doubles and triples.

    Two over, we couldn't buy a putt and had 4 greenside bunker shots and one fairway bunker! Had tons of fun though, paired up with Lance from the snowboard outfit.

    Have a bad attitude about Shitting Star. Played Reserve today dodging thunderboomers, likely again Monday....

    Reserve is my go to, hit balls once a week there, as in drive over the pass to do it.

    Voted for SRA back in the day because Resor said it would be a public golf resource
    for the county. 8 tee times on Tuesday afternoon- $109 plus fore caddy and cart required,
    not so much.

    At least with a member you can walk and no caddy. Probably the only time I will get to
    play there. Crazy how much earth they moved, actual uphill and downhill shots built into
    the flat valley floor. Pretty holes, but a little too target oriented for my traditional tastes.
