Yes I will be in town. My wife and I have a charity event that happens to be on October 12th this year. It is sort of an annual tradition that we get a hotel for the night and spend the following day in Laguna, so I would really be in the doghouse if I cancelled our weekend getaway for golf (apparently I am not as brave as Beachcomber ). I'm sure I could play Saturday morning, as long as we were done by 2:30-3pm. I definitely want a re-match, so let's do it!

See that is where the problem lies... I could get away with spending the day with her on the 12th - taking her to dinner, etc. for her Birthday.  And then playing golf on Sunday the 13th... But going and playing golf on both the 12th and 13th.... Ummmm  I think that could be problematic?

I played there awhile back, and although I stunk royally, I really liked the course.  Would love a second chance at that beast!

Yeah, I hear ya. That would be a tough sell, even for the most easygoing wife/girlfriend.

Brandon, tell you what - if you decide to come down early, I'll keep Saturday morning open and I'm sure we could fill out a foursome. Although I have to warn you, if you are looking to me for more easy $$$$ thanks to my 50 on the back 9 of Talega, don't go spending the money quite yet. After working through a few kinks in my swing, I was able to cobble together a 79 this afternoon at Mile Square Park. Game on, baby!

Alright, well it's still a ways away, but seems like it could work out.

Wow, nice.  I shot a 44 through 9 at Granite Bay Country Club!  I really stunk it up, but mostly cause the guys hosting me were talking my ear off the whole time.

lol, I hit the speed slot ;-)

No, but seriously, driving (including 3w) and putting are usually my strong points.  Irons (especially anything inside 130 yards) are my weakness, although I hit my longer irons well at times.  Par 5s usually are right in my wheelhouse (Dr, 3w/long iron).

BigC beat me in an 18 hole round this week!  Clutch par on the tough 18th hole, and took all my money.  That guy is pretty good.

Ha! Says the man who was 2 under through 3 holes. I'm just lucky it was match play or else you would have smoked me!

Guys, if we keep 10/13... I could be out. Wife wants to go to NorCal for her bday. Last time she can fly before the baby, and it's her bday.

Go to the group's page and click subscribe ;)

Also, now that Beach sounds like he's not going to be able to make it (should we start calling this "beaching out"?), who is leading the charge on this one?

Yeah, I did that but the threads still don't pop up on my "subscriptions" unless I post in them. Probably a settings issue.

    • Why you young whipper-snapper you!😋 To OP, I have no routine, I eye-ball up to half wedge (40-60 yards) most days. Only time I am somewhat deliberate in checking is distances to clear hazards.    
    • Well, I just got back from 7 days straight of golf in Las Vegas.  I've played all three courses at Paiute Golf Resort. Normally I say that the Wolf course is my favorite, but I do really like Snow Mountain as well. I'll say this, all three courses are really great there. You can't go wrong by playing Paiute.  Then I played a tournament at Bear's Best. Been playing that tournament for like 15-16 years now. We've only been at Bear's Best for the last 10, before that we were at Prime Valley. It was a great tournament. For some reason my head fell off during my Saturday round to take me totally out of contention. I also hit a piss-poor tee shot on the 4th hole of the horserace to take my partner and I out of that.  I hit some really great shots during the tournament. But you don't win tournaments by hitting great shots. You win tournaments by making low scores. Which I simply wasn't able to do.  It was great, and now only 357 more days until next year's tournament. 
    • One that comes to mind ... #2 Jasper Hills GC, par 3 Naturally this one was to save par.  Hit two awful shots to find myself on the very front of this fairly large size green. The hole was in the back, left corner with a decent amount of right to left break. I'd only be guessing what the actual distance was, but it was easily over 50 feet. There was so much bend on the back end of the putt that it just seemed really unlikely until the last few seconds when it broke back to the hole, hit the stick dead center and dropped.
