It was fun as always, even though I could barely walk at times. It’s always good to meet people in person that I’ve interacted with online. I am a little disappointed we didn’t get to have dinner together and just kind of chat with people not within our own groups but a 5 hour round will do that. I hope everyone gets home safe. Looking forward to the next outing.

Remember everyone… you should have posted your round to GHIN last night. Some did. Most did not.

It was fun. My phone said I walked 4.7 miles and climbed 20 floors, despite riding in a cart. Cart path only was a bummer but that stuff happens. The weather was pretty good compared to what I was prepared for a couple days ago. I brought my full rain suit, umbrella, rain gloves, golf bag cover and a change of clothes.

The course selected was a very nice one. The bunkers were crap but the balance of the layout was interesting and challenging.

The TST group is a diverse collection of golfers who are easy to hang with. It was a pleasure to join everyone yesterday.

@StuM, thank you for plugging away at this for all those months of messages and changes.

@iacas, thanks for pulling together a fun format for the competition.

@ChetlovesMer, thanks for not driving our cart off a cliff and making my wife a widow.

Thanks. I didn’t love it but I think it was fair, and different.

Open to disagreement on this as always.

A key to longevity is to keep moving 😉

Yea, looks like they were doing work on some of them too.

I liked the course, it looks more daunting than it is. It was a fair test at par 70.

Least I could do. 
I enjoyed that round. You're a great cart-mate. 
 

Hope to do it again sometime. ... I mean play golf ... not drive the cart over a cliff. 

BTW - I'm still pretty sure those punks too my ball. :angry:

Thanks @StuM for putting this together. Always good to be able to put names and faces to the site handles. I enjoyed the round. Got home at 4 AM safely. Hope everyone did too. 

Looking forward to seeing y'all and some more next time! 

P.S. bunkers were okay. Just had to punch the bounce down into the 'sand' pretty firmly to not skull it. But yeah, other than couple of mini par 5s posing as par 4s it was a fair and fun course.

That's awesome. Would love to go to one of these one day. I recognize Scott, Bill and Erik. And a couple of you guys from your swing threads. Good stuff, guys. Sounds like a great time.

Glad you all enjoyed.   Todsy’weather was fantastic for golf so the few of us that opted to stay the night were rewarded.

It was wet due to rain that ended 3 hours before we all arrived, but… it wasn't bad. It was reasonably warm, not super windy…
