Hello everyone, The name: Once during a round took my shoes and socks off to try and hit out of water. (Look easy when I saw it on TV once, so I naturally had to try it). All I will say about the shot is that it did not end well. I was completely soaked and covered in mud and at the end of the round discovered I some how had a couple of small rocks in my socks. By the way I would still do it again (practice makes perfect). My golf game summary: horribly inconsistent. I say horribly because I can go out play 9 holes and shot low to mid 40's one day and turn around and shoot in the 60's the next. It is usually always a differnt part of my game each time that struggles. Hoping to get some practice in over the winter. The wife generally frowns upon me swinging my clubs in the house, but sometimes it just has to happen or I'll go crazy. Anyway, hoping the golf talk on this forum will help me keep my sanity until April. Mike

Welcome, I'm just south of you un Northern Il. I played 27 on Monday but I'm afraid that may do it for a while. We may get lucky but I'm not counting on it.

No problem national golf center in big bend has a heated outdoor range is open 9-8 every day I think. There is a simulator in Oconomowoc and another simulator in Genesee at a pool and spa place. Both require appointment.

Sorry, heated.

You don't have to apologize to me bud. How much is a bucket there? National is $7.50 or $8.50 for 75 balls.

    • I get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.
    • 46 (9 over) Short game and putts were awful!
    • 46+40 for an 86. I just need to play 9 holes on the range before each round. 🤣🤣🤣
    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
