Oh, roddy ranch. Damn, 2 hours.. hey, you guys should do a tournament through JGANC, I'd sign up for that.

They have the high schools here regularly, problem is the course gets slowed way down cause the kids walk and this course is very hilly and there is a million and 1 places to lose a ball and some kids are real beginners and this course is not for beginners.

Oh, cool cool. Do you plan on doing anything for JGANC?

And I can related to losing the ball everywhere.. Caynon Oaks is like that, hella tough course, but I'm slowly mastering it.. slowly.. it gives me a challenge everyday.

Oh I don't know I'm just a member there, I would have to ask the head pro next time I see him, I'll se him this Friday and if I remember I'll ask, also it may be in NCGA's website for tournament locations, I know we had some qualifiers for NCGA amateur events.

Don't do NCGA, do JGANC. You should really bring it up. I'd bring my friend down and some other really good golfers

Just looked at JGANC they have some events at some very nice courses (Spyglass of course) and then other places that are very nice but not known nearly as much, and then they go to some real cow pastures but oh well it's for a good purpose, pine meadows and buchannan fields yuck. Keep practicing and do those tournaments as much as possible, tournament golf is your true measure.

Agreed, and thanks.

    • Because of the 68.4-72 part. If he shoots 10 over par (his course handicap), he will have shot his index. You don't factor par in when you calculate the differential, but you do when you calculate the course handicap. That's where the difference comes in. It works symmetrically: guy shoots 82 and gets a 12.4. Guy plays off a 12.4 and… has to shoot 82.

    • I'm the commissioner of a golf league and am often asked about why someone's handicap is this or that or why it's going down or why it's not going up. Those kinds of questions can easily explain but this one has me struggling to come up with a logical answer. I understand the formulas to calculate the course differential for individual rounds, the handicap index that results after averaging the best 8 differentials of the most recent 20 rounds and finding the course handicap for an individual round. What I don’t understand is the logic. Here’s an example: Suppose a golfer plays the same course all the time. Let’s say it’s a Par-4, the Course Index is 68.4 and the Slope is 124. If someone shoots an 82, assuming no adjustment, the differential for that round would be (82-68.4) X (113/124) =12.4. Let’s further assume the average differential of his best 8 rounds is also 12.4. Now, if he goes back to that same golf course, his Course Handicap will be 12.4 X (124/113)+(68.4-72) = 10. I understand the math...that's pretty simple. I don’t understand the logic. Why aren’t they the same?
    • Day 5 - Old Macdonald Of all the courses, this one to me, played the most like a link course should play. Huge greens, plenty of room to play the ball down. This one was super fun to play.  Hole 3 is super cool, you tee off up and over this big dune, and at the top you get view of the nearly the entire course. It's like, here you go, enjoy.  I would rate this one 8.5/10 I think every one should play Pacific Dunes, but if I had to say which ones I think people would enjoy the most.  1. Bandon Dunes 2. Bandon Trail 3. Old MacDonald 4. Pacific Dunes.  Pacific Dunes is so demanding. For me, I enjoyed Old MacDonald and Bandon Dunes the most, but I think Pacific Dunes is the best course out there.  Some photos...
