Nice dog braddah. I never had a boxer, but they look like a gas to own. Those and either Border Collies or Australian Shepherds would be my next dog if I found enough energy to care for them properly.

My border collie Jasper who I had to put down last year after almost 15 years. Think about him every day, don't think I'll have one like him again.

How many Border Collies does it take to change a light bulb?

One.  Plus he takes the time to bring all the electrical wiring up to code.

Beautiful dog @Gunther .  RIP

Haha, yes, he (they) was (are) very intelligent. Thanks very much, that meant a lot.

We RV a lot, and sometime we stay in some pretty out of the way places. Security is of some concern. We have a couple of dogs who help out with security just because of their size. Mik is a 6 year old American Bull Dog. He gets a bad rap because folks think he is a Pit Bull. Our other dog, Moose is 5 years old, and is  mix breed Collie/St Bernard. They just received their yearly vaccinations last week. The both tipped the Vet's scales at 122 lbs each. They are our buddies, and we would be lost with out them. Since we spend so much time in the desert southwest, they are accustomed to wild animals, and reptiles. These guys grew up together, since Moose was a year old. With their size, when they get to playing with each other, we just get out of their way. :bugout:

I've got a 9 month old English Bulldog named Bacon! He's about as close to a kid as I want for now.  He's about a expensive as one it seems!  bulldogs are predisposed to a lot of health problems and he's already had his fair share, and they're not cheap to get taken care of.

I have two old Shiba Inu's that have been blind a decade or so. Like family but dang they have been expensive. After they are gone I am done with pets for good.

    • I played in an outing a few years ago. The course was wet, and it was windy. We all did bad enough to reward us with a PCC of +1 (If I am remembering this correctly). So all of our differentials went up 1.  So, if that score is part of my best 8 out of 20. That means I am getting 1/8th of a differential improvement. For you to get a PCC, you need enough people submitting their score for handicap during that day. Let's say you were the only person who was submitting the score for handicap, odds are you are not getting a PCC.  Which is fine, because no handicap system can be that nuanced. I don't think you'd want it to be. Still, my statement is correct. It takes into account weather and abnormal difficult conditions. 
    • I’ve been rather surprised how my original question relating to the logic behind “differential vs course handicap” elicited the responses expressed on this thread so far. I suppose it shows that there are many who have given this subject a lot of thought. I personally like the current system for the same reasons stated in the post by saevel25 and it works very well in our league. I just needed to get the reasoning/logic clear in my head so I could explain it succinctly to those who had questions. Regarding the ongoing discussion, the only tweak we make is only the scores made in league competition count. (We don’t use GHIN, we do the calculation ourselves.) The only additional thought I had is perhaps the powers that be can come up with a method, when doing the differential calculation, of giving greater weight to the rounds played more recently than those from 20 rounds ago. I’ve been testing this with an idea I had similar to the way colleges calculate GPA’s based on credits offered by different classes, but honestly, the complexity it adds to the calculation isn’t worth the trouble as any change made has proven to be inconsequential.

    • Day 102 11-21 Early practice session today. Flow drill, getting to lead side, and a bit of skills work. Really need to slow down and ingrain the "rotating" to lead side.  Feels weird-which is great, it means changes, I'm just going too fast right now.
