Well I made it out to the first day, practice round, at Oak Tree in Edmond, Oklahoma. It was the first time I have been to the course and I can honestly say it is AMAZING. The course was in amazing shape and people were already showing up, just for the practice round.

It is pretty big for Oklahoma, we dont get many big golf tournaments. It is expecting 75,000 for the weekend.

Oklahoma is also getting the 2007 PGA Championship, but it will be in Tulsa.

If anyone lives around Oklahoma, I recommend making a trip out to Edmond, it will be worth your while.

Do me a favor and drag Cody's butt out there, wouldja? Did you take a digital camera? I had a good time attending the Senior PGA last year (Laurel Valley CC, near Latrobe, PA).

Well, to be honest Erik, I tried. I had two tickets, one for me and I got him one, but he didnt want to miss a day of work, I tried. I didnt take my camera, I wish I did though. You would be amazed at how beautiful they have the course. I know another guy that was going to take his camera, I will see if he did and took some pictures. If he did, I will post them for the board to see. I even called Cody up and told him he made a mistake not going, lol. I think he knew he should have went with me.

It was still early, so alot of the top players were not out just yet but Craig Staidler was out playing and signing autographs.

Someone has to pay the bills around here.

Originally, I had planned on working the event. I even sent in my application to help out, but things just got crazy with the job situation and move, and that messed everything up.

I definitely wanted to go every day, but maybe next time....

Come hell or high water, I'll be at the PGA Championship next year. That's just not an option to miss...

    • I kind of like this interpretation especially if you think about it the unplayable rule would probably put you in a better spot.  using back on the line releief.  
    • I did not realize that, I was thinking a more traditional golf club.  
    • Thanks for the feedback. @StuM, we are a "club without real estate" so no facilities or pro. We have a membership of around 185 players and we only play together as a group at our tournaments, which are held at public access courses. A group of us setup the tournaments, collect the money and dole out the prizes.
    • In general, granting free relief anywhere on the course isn't recommended.  Similarly, when marking GUR, the VSGA and MAPGA generally don't mark areas that are well away from the intended playing lines, no matter how poor the conditions.  If you hit it far enough offline, you don't necessarily deserve free relief.  And you don't have to damage clubs, take unplayable relief, take the stroke, and drop the ball in a better spot.
    • If it's not broken don't fix it. If you want to add grooves to it just because of looks that's your choice of course. Grooves are cut into putter faces to reduce skid, the roll faced putter is designed to do the same thing. I'm no expert but it seems counter productive to add grooves to the roll face. Maybe you can have it sand-blasted or something to clean up the face. Take a look at Tigers putter, its beat to hell but he still uses it.
