Sorry for the late start but I set up a group for us to do a bracket challenge.

On the right hand side you'll see this, I put my full name "Mike Mc Loughlin" into where it says "First Name" and for my "Last Name" I put in my avatar.  You can put your avatar twice or like I did.

The group name is: The Sand Trap

Agreed.  I filled it out like I fill out my ncaa brackets.

"Oh, I've heard of them, they must be good"

"I think I saw their coach at Del Taco in Vegas, I'm picking them!"

"They have cool uniforms."  :)

EDIT:  I'm more of an idiot than Erik because it took me forever to find my picks again.  Anyways, here they are ... http://sweeps.golfweek.com/bracket.asp?ID=7&Bracket;=25967

I am in. A few years ago I picked all the teams in the final four and had the finals and eventual winner all right. I said after doing that, I would never do a bracket again because I could never top it. I don't think I will do as well with this, but we'll see.

Well, I'm even dumber because I actually try to think about it, whose hot, checking stats, etc.

And then I'm dead wrong anyway.

I've got Oousty over Poults in the final.

Damn, it has my actual name next to my bracket. Oh well. I'm J.Constantine in the group.

Jamo, I actually hope your final four prediction comes true. Tiger over Rory would be epic.

What is the deal with you talking about getting Trues? I'm not making the connection.  I'm confused.

    • The term I hear most often is "double teeing" which means the course/club has starting times from both the #1 and #10 tee.  I have encountered this many times and we know if we are the first group off #10, we may well get to #1 and have to wait because there are groups still with tee times yet to tee of #1.  In most instances, where the course/club has a starter, he normally explains this situation.  In this case, the pro advised what you would could/would encounter making the turn to #1.  And, that is exactly what happened.  Probably would have been wise to talk to the pro after playing back 9 and ask when you could go off #1 since apparently that club does not double tee.   Regardless, the outburst towards the other group was uncalled for.  And, I don't blame the member for being upset.  As a member of a private club, you are responsible for the actions of your guest.  I have played many times as a guest in the UK and I am pretty damn sure my host was responsible for my actions while at the club.  I know at the clubs I have belonged to here in the US, that is the way it is.  As a matter of fact, the member may find himself being brought before management and facing possible suspension.  So, I don't blame him for being upset.  However, as the host, he really should have stepped up and put a stop to the OP's actions.  OP makes this statement "I now understand that standards are different on the "private course." But I'll take those lessons to the muni, too."  No, the standards are not different.  You, sir, seem to be just a bit hard headed and belligerent, even if you are college professor...which possibly explains a lot.   JMHO
    • Day 32: worked for about 10 minutes on my drill. Filmed it as well for a check in. I think it’s slightly better but still seeing some issues. 
    • Day 44 (26 Dec 25)  -  played in the Friday men’s shootout with a twist - used the Toney Penna persimmons and MacGregor blades - had a blast playing these clubs.  They really help in zoning in on making solid ball contact.  Scoring was solid - had several looks at birdie and had a few par saves.  Overall a day of focused course management. 
    • Day 2: 2025.12.27 Eighteen holes at Kauri Cliffs. Focusing on trying to keep flex in right leg during backswing.
    • Day 136 12-26 Had a different practice planned today but life happened. Worked on "wide to wide" and still working on remaining flowy. Starting the club head in front of the ball as a drill, is helping with the flow of the swing.
