My partner has really struggled all year. Last night he staked a par-3 AND made the birdie putt--good for both pin-shot and skin money. Only the second time all year he's won anything. Good for him!

Hole #9 is the #1 hdcp hole on the nine. 390 with a cut rock wall-like moat (yes, with water) guarding the green. Short, long and left are all jail shots to the green as well. It's the only hole were birdie for me pretty much guarantees a rare skin. Crushed a drive, hit 8-iron to 25' (can't be shy on the approach shot!) then hit the perfect putt for the rare BIRDIE on the hole!!! Nice. It paid well, too!

We'll have a league tournament this Friday and a nice steak dinner afterwards, prizes, etc. Really enjoyed it this year even though my partner and I finished 9th out of 12 teams! Winning cash is definitely secondary to having fun and playing with people we enjoy being around.

ps: Pair that nice birdie with an EIGHT on a par-4 and you shoot 43!

      That is a bit hyperbolic, I think. Most despicable is a bit much.  Again, a bit over the top here.  Most athletes are probably closer to being normal human beings than degenerates and avaricious scum.  Just sounds like you want to generalize all athletes because it is easy to do so. Hey, generalizing a subset of a population is entirely a human thing to do.

      This is so awesome; my two biggest lifetime hero and the biggest superstars of the past 35 years in golf……both turned out to be the two of the most despicable human beings in professional sports… Between this and everyone whoring themselves out for Saudi Arabia… Used to love golf because I thought they were smarter, better people than the other sports. Turns out a huge percentage of them are total degenerates and avaricious scum like every other sport!

      This isn't going to show you lateral dispersion at all. It's basically just a radar (for speed) launch monitor. It doesn't measure spin or anything like that. Not even launch direction.
