I’ll be honest, I did seriously consider it because he kept trolling us in the Winter Depression thread when he lived in Florida 😜

Yeah. Those were the days. ::sigh::

Feel free to banISH me back to Florida for the next 5 months.

The thermal underwear comes out when the temperatures drop in the 60s. You can be sure there will be real tears in his eyes when we get our first dusting of snow.

They come out with the earmuffs anytime the temp drops below 65. At least now I have a mask with me at all times to keep my nose warm.

There’s gonna be bad seeds that only show up to stir the pot.  I don’t get it...find a hobby.  One of the other forums I’m on just had a guy show up that is like that... and he’s started already.  He’s been thrown off other forums and, not too bright, continues to use the same username so anyone that’s been around knows his deal.

Just spit-balling here.

What about banning everyone who wears a white belt? ... Just a thought

Oh WAIT!
Unless their female. White belts are perfectly acceptable for females. 

Like I've said before, have you ever been outdriven by 50 yards by someone wearing a white belt? We should play then. I look fantastic in my white belts.

I've got two words for you.... Chicago Public Schools. 🤪

Were you treated unfairly by a teacher wearing a white belt?

Unfortunately, I've seen many an asshat get banned from here over the years. Some people just don't know how to play well with others.

I out-hit him by 50 yards with my 7-iron at Chautauqua. Does that count? 🙂

Yes, yes it does.

FWIW I've always found @ChetlovesMer's extreme aversion for white belts ironic considering he is wearing cargo shorts in his avatar. I can wear my white belt at any golf course in the country. Those cargo shorts, on the other hand, are a no no at pretty much every high end track in the world. Just sayin' 😉

ummmmm actually no, it was not intentional.  I am just that terrible with grammar and spelling.  I have done and do a lot of writing at work but I have always had someone proof my work for me.  In fact whenever we bring in a new hire the first thing I explain is that I have very thick skin regarding my writing, correct away. I will never get angry just do not change the intent of what is written.

I find it incredible how much what I write changes to what is published 🙂

 In short, I can't spell, I am horrific with grammar and I am color blind but dang all of my drives go 300+ yards, even on Par 3s

The way my game has been this year, you'd probably outdrive me by 150 yards. 

If you are young and slender, you can probably get away with a white belt. If you are 50 years old with a dad bod.... well... probably not. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Yes, you can out-drive, out-score, out-pretty, etc. me all you want but two years down the road the only thing I will remember about you is you were 'that-guy-with-the-white-belt..' 😂

    • A 5400 yd course is not that short for gents driving it 160 yards considering the approach shot lengths they are going to be faced with on Par 4s.  Also, for the course you are referring to I estimate the Par 4s have to average longer than 260 yds, because the Par 5s are 800 yds or so, and if there are four Par 3s averaging 130 the total is 1320 yds.  This leaves 4080 yds remaining for 12 Par 4s.  That is an average of 340 per hole. Anyway, if there are super seniors driving it only 160ish and breaking 80 consistently, they must be elite/exceptional in other aspects of their games.  I play a lot of golf with 65-75 yr old seniors on a 5400 yd course.  They all drive it 180-200 or so, but many are slicers and poor iron players.  None can break 80. I am 66 and drive it 200 yds.  My average score is 76.  On that course my average approach shot on Par 4s is 125 yds.  The ten Par 4s average 313 yds.  By that comparison the 160 yd driver of the ball would have 165 left when attempting GIR on those holes.     
    • I don't think you can snag lpga.golf without the actual LPGA having a reasonable claim to it. You can find a ton of articles of things like this, but basically: 5 Domain Name Battles of the Early Web At the dawn of the world wide web, early adopters were scooping up domain names like crazy. Which led to quite a few battles over everything from MTV.com You could buy it, though, and hope the LPGA will give you a thousand bucks for it, or tickets to an event, or something like that. It'd certainly be cheaper than suing you to get it back, even though they'd likely win. As for whether women and golfers can learn that ".golf" is a valid domain, I think that's up to you knowing your audience. My daughter has natalie.golf and I have erik.golf.
