So, where are all the golf nuts hiding?

Cleveland wedges here too.

League tonight and I think it was a 38 or 39. Back to back birdies but a lost ball a few holes before. Hitting the new irons a little better each time out. Flew the 9th green and off the back a few others so still dialing in the distance but I am liking them.

SM6 or SM7 I forget which. I like the vokeys so I'll just stick with them when its time.

Shot a 100 yesterday at the same course I shot a 91 on last Saturday.

Went out in 54 .. it was BAD - closed out in 46 (and that still wasn't great)

Shot a 95 today on a new course that i was not prepared for, played lousy on top of it.

Lotta tees like this (220 carry, didnt look like it to me either).....

Into stuff like this.....

Super fun course!!!!! Played great outta the sand which probably saved me from 3 digits lol

I like the look of that course. Remember that one for when I make the trek out there !

So the age old question is: you're playing with your boss, or client, or future father in law.... do you make sure they win ?

Well my usual Member-Guest partner, my BIL, bailed on me this year. So I invited and am playing with the guy that runs my most local cigar shop..... Hmmm dilemma.

This would have been much easier if you would have just flown in and joined the team @Redneck_toy

Always play to win!! It shows strength and confidence.

But I'd be willing to show weakness for a shop discount ! I'd probably have to hear about it though, at any and all cigar nights..... like he has to hear about his Fantasy Football record

Play your game! If you win so be it - if you get spanked so be it!

And in this case definitely play to win so you can rub FF and golf in!!

Play to win. Everytime. Would have loved to come up, just too close to my last vacation.that was 3 weeks long. (1 week after!) I will get back up there before long though

Lemme know if you're coming this way I'll head down @WNYTony's direction and I'll pick on him with you!

Just harassing you - wouldn't expect you to fly up here just for golf. Although watching @mitetak blast it off the tee is worth it.

Yeah it was just one of those questions to ponder. I wouldn't throw it, ever. I just play my game and let everyone else make their mistakes

 

[Redneck_toy]

Speaking of points to ponder, a question:

would you rather A:
Be able to play scratch golf the rest of your life, but only at your home course?
B:
Play to a 10 handicap on any course in the world?
C:
Play to a 15 handicap, but play free at any course in the world?

II'dprobably go with c, since my handicap is higher than 15 now, and I play a metric fuckload of golf. If it were free, I could probably retire a few years early....

 

[mitetak]

C!!

I don't have any mental needs that are filled by a low handicap!!

Playing free ANYWHERE?! Yes please - and I'll gladly shoot high 80s to high 90s!! Augusta here i come!

 

[Redneck_toy]

I think the original question for C was a 20 handicap. My bad. I'd still choose C....

I'd still choose C - no hesitation

 

[WNYTony]

Yeah the free golf would probably win out for me too. Off to play the practice round now - hoping the swing I show up with is a good one !

 

[Redneck_toy]

Tied a personal best, although the first 83 was from the tips. Today, I played the Whites. Flubbed several shots, so could have easily been sub 80.
So my golf journey goes....

2 birdies is nice but ouch to the triple at the end !

 

[WNYTony]

Crappy 84 today in the practice round. Well a crappy 45 on the front - the 39 on the back wasn't bad. Really just playing for skins and the one birdie I did make may hold up. Tomorrow is the main event so I'll be playing more for score, at least until it goes too far south and then it's back to a skins game.
