Suprisingly, I was able to get a tee time for my BF and I at Scholl Canyon G.C. We've never been there, its a small executive course with some par 4s, should be a lot of fun. But I was able to get 50% off and the fees include green fees, practice balls, and a cart all for just $13/person. Super cool!! I hear it has a nice view, however...its next to the dump, so we'll have to see.

Anyone else playing golf on Thanksgiving? You'd think prices would be higher right, because its a holiday?

Have a Happy Thanksgiving everyone (to those who celebrate the holiday )

I love the course and haven't been there for a while. This deal seems too good to be true, is it just for 9 holes or something?

My wife and I are planning to play. Course should be empty, but unlike CA, here in the East the weather is hit or miss this time of year. If we get a sunny day, we'll feel like we got away with one. THEN the turkey. Great day if it works.

I went to golfnow.com for this special deal :) Golfnow.com or click4teetimes.com is where I do my tee times, its a little bit cheaper and sometimes you can get a better deal online rather than at the course, which is how I got my deal)!!

      NBA Proposing Changes to Their Draft System

      By saevel25 · Posted

      The NBA is trying to prevent tanking to get better draft picks.  https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/48763248/adam-silver-says-nba-present-3-2-1-lottery-proposal-curb-tanking The concept is that the bottom 3 teams would have worse odds than teams 4 through 10, who would have equal odds. In addition, they could be penalized by having their draft position moved and also monetary fines for tanking.  My concerns are the following. If you are out of it, it would be detrimental to have your stars injured and not develop younger players. Which would naturally cause more loses.

      2027 Ryder Cup

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I could see that being the stress of the playing partner. I would be interested to see a deep dive into how he performed.  I do wonder the difference in record of best ball versus alt shot. In alt shot, you basically are taking 50% of his impact and adding in 50% of another golfers impact. So naturally, his total effective strength would be less.  That could be the case.  I think it might be more due to the style of golf they grew up playing. If in the UK, foursomes is more common, then that is an advantage. In the USA, I don't think foursomes or even best ball is common at the high school or collegiate level. It is more match play and stroke play. Maybe the PGA Tour should petition the NCAA to change their formats to include more Alt Shot.

      This makes all kinds of sense. Look at an exception on the US side: Justin Thomas and Jordan Spieth are a renowned Ryder and Presidents Cup pairing, and they DO socialize together, are the best of friends in fact.

      Tiger has a good singles record, but not a good pairs record. My own personal theory on that is he's hard to play with. If you play with him in either format and lose, it's going to be your fault. "How could you not win playing with the best ever?" kind of thing. That ups the pressure that's already pretty insane and makes you play worse. At the same time, Tiger's a bit of a control freak. He hates not having the wheel and in foursomes play, he has to give that up for half the shots. So he doesn't play very well and his partner doesn't play very well. The Euros are much better (it seems) at giving up that control and playing against him has the effect of reducing the pressure a little because if you lose, well, he's the best ever so it's hardly surprising. All of which shifts the balance a little against Tiger and so his record isn't great.  I also don't think the US captains did a great job partnering him off. Putting him with Phil is maybe one of the worst decisions in team golf history. I think he needed someone who was happy to play second fiddle. Was steady. Kind of person who shoots 68-71 a lot and less 63 or 76 type player. Not sure that was ever going to be an easy thing to do mind you.  As to your other questions, a friend of mine went to a dinner that Padraig Harrington spoke at. What Paddy said is that on the European Tour (as it was then), the players would go and stay at the same place and get together, have dinner, enjoy each other's company and get along. Then in the US, everyone would go to their hotel, order room service and basically barely talk to each other. His theory was that the camaraderie meant much more cohesiveness and people being happy to play for each other and with each other.  County golf matches in the UK tend to be foursomes and singles and a lot of Euro tour players will have been through the county system on their way up. Hard to picture how you can change that. The US is just more individualist and Europe is more inclusive. Just the way that they are.

      Jim Furyk To Get Tough To Win Ryder Cup Back | Golf Monthly Jim Furyk says he will pick the "toughest" and "grittiest" players he can as he looks to solve the "glaring problem" preventing the USA from winning the Ryder Cup Yea, I am not a fan of the toughness talk. I do think the idea of closers might matter more. Tiger Woods, probably had the most grit of any player in history, has a losing record at the Ryder Cup. He was just not good in team formats.  I do think US needs to fix their team formats. It seems to be a historical problem. Do people over in Europe grow up playing team format golf more often? I don't get why they tend to succeed in that format. I am not sure it is a toughness question. I think toughness matters more in singles matches, where you are on your own island having to win.
