Couple things

- Make sure the grip is in the fingers of both hands.  Some players can get it too much in the palm of the left hand, effects wrist hinge.

- If you do tend to take the club head too far in on the takeaway, I think that would be a good place to start.

anything new on this front? when do we have to pay? and did we agree we have to have a set number of people by the 1st to minimize hiccups?

Sorry guys, I got strep throat was down and out for about a week - then followed Thanksgiving.  I'll pick this up tomorrow as I'm back to 100%.  So tomorrow, I'll get my commitments firmed up - and lock something down with the course in terms of times.

Too late to add another?  I missed this thread earlier, but I'm almost definitely in.  Could possibly bring another player.  I can confirm by tomorrow if plans aren't finalized yet.

not too late!  let us know if you are a 1 or a 2some.

I agree with others that we should lock this down in the near future...


I'm in, but just me, so one player.

Hi All,

I have not kept up with the tourney for two weeks.

Are we playing the Classic or the Players course?

Who's doing the pairings (I assume that the handicaps will arrange our groups (highest last?)? I think My son is going so are we going out in Foursomes?

Agoodman, do you and your friend want to pair up with me and my son?

Thanks,

Lihu

I looked for flights. I was seriously considering coming, and I'd have kept it a surprise until I was there (and tried to bring some things). But the wife nixed that one by about a hundred bucks.

I expect lots of photos, a video or twelve, and some embellished tales! :)

That would have been awesome, especially if you had surprised me

Well since I'd probably try to stay with you, I'm not sure that would have worked out very well...

A flight out of Cleveland costs a bit less...

Thanks,

    • Musgrove Mill hole #15 was converted to a par 3 after Hurricane Helene. Today, I had 145 from the tee which is a perfect 9-iron for me. I aimed just right of the hole and pulled it a few feet. Clanked off the stick down into the hole and ricocheted out of the hole 13’ away. Drained the putt for a birdie after repairing the hole which was damaged . Not sure if it would have counted as a HIO, but I was pretty excited!
    • Day 55 - 2024-11-24 Did five levels of Operation 36 on GSPro (different courses). 🙂 Was -4 from 200 yards (32) intentionally laying up on each hole (i.e. not hitting a 5I or something). Shot… 22, 24, 26 from 25, 50, and 100 yards. I forget my 150-yard score, but obviously it was < 36. Putting was odd… (and I did it with the wedge or a 7I or whatever was in my hand).
