This is my 1000th posting on TST. I would like to thank the webmasters for providing a forum for golf junkies.

I would also like to acknowledge some of the patrons whose postings I have enjoyed since I first joined in January of 2013. Here is a partial listing of some of my favorite contributors: rkim291968, Lihu, boogielicious, Golfingdad, RFKFREAK, BuckeyeNut, Ernest Jones, JonMA1, iacas, mvmac, et al.

Personally, I have enjoyed more than 55 years of strolling the fairways with friends, family, strangers (who quickly become friends), or by myself. I find in many ways that golf is a microcosm of life. From Richard Allen’s The Spirit Of Golf And How It Applies To Life ... “Both golf and life require patience and courage, persistence and honesty, focus and self-belief. They present similar challenges, involve the weighing up of risk and the making of hard decisions. In both golf and life, we must learn to deal with triumph and disaster. Golf teaches us about ego and resilience. It implores us to meet challenges and put disappointments into perspective. Crucially, we realise we should not take the game—or life—too seriously.”

Thank you one and all.

I love this game! :-D

Congrats! I recently past the same milestone ... I thought about a 1000th post, but could not come up with anything so profound as yours. add into the equation I finished near the bottom of my class, mixed with being an introvert and you get nothing ... :beer:

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By Elmer ·

      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.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By TN94z ·

      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.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      By imsys0042 ·

      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.
