On a similar vein as the "How Many States" query, how many countries?  Other than the USA and Canada, I have only been to Ireland and the UK (Scotland).  Some golfers who have visited the Caribbean or traveled through Europe might have some impressive numbers.

Get real, bk. Canada is an independent country, with its own rich golf tradition. You need to count them separately. Your phrasing doesn't do much US-Canadian relations. :beer:

To show your repentence, buy the next Canadian you meet a Molson.

------------------------

Besides USA, I have played golf in Japan (Okinawa, about 30 years ahead of Normdamarine); Taiwan; Germany, and Italy. (I've also played in Sicily, whose locals would count it as an honorary separate country.)

I've visited Canada, but haven't played golf there - yet.

So you know someone who played in another country and she brought you a shirt.  Well, I guess that counts..... :-P

U.S., Japan, Argentina, Mexico, Spain

Was supposed to play Pete Dye's Black Pearl course in Honduras when we pulled in on a cruise a couple of years back......but it turned out that I was the ONLY ONE ON THE ENTIRE FREAKING BOAT that wanted to play golf, so they canceled the excursion.  I could have piled into a cab and played on my own, but decided it was just too much trouble.  I'll bet they had 1,000 people that went to swim with the stinkin' dolphins, but couldn't come up with one more golfer on that damn barge!  Yeah.....I'm still pissed. :pound:

Just a 'point of information' but Molson, and Labatt for that matter, are absolute piss. When you come to Canada do yourself a favour and explore our micro-brewery offerings. I highly recommend McAuslin's beer, all they do are ales and they do it very, very well!

The Budweiser of Canada. The equivalent of Fosters in Australia. Beer for people who don't really like beer...... ;-)

      Favorite Las Vegas Course

      By Maroon88 ·

      I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.

      Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.

      Day 283: Putted on my mat for a while watching an NLU video. Worked on keeping my head still primarily, and then making sure my bead is okay.
