Hahaha ... Very funny Mr. "I'll take 4 if you'll give them to me" :P

My HCP would have to be established off of the 25 balls I hit in a booth today at Golfsmith. But seriously, they all carried 272-276 and within 3 yards of center. I was testing a new 20-deg hybrid. I didn't buy it because I was trying to fill a 266-271 yd gap.

There's a chart on here somewhere that says of you carry a 20 degree hybrid 270 yards with that kind of accuracy then you are a plus handicap. Tristan, take his strokes away!!!

Not sure if this affects the estimate but my ball speed was 296 mph average but the spin was like 10,276 rpm so the total distance was only 14 yds because they all spun back so much.

Smash factor was 3.0??

We got this. You and I were in the foursome that had the lowest total out of every foursome at the December outing, while the other two members are split in different groups this time...

Alright! Go pastel green team!!!

@tristanhilton85 - can you give me the Pantone code for the green used for the winning team B?  I want to make sure I have a shirt that matches.

@Golfingdad , @Bechambo , @Jaydub514 - I got a yardage book from a friend who played a tourney here recently, so that should help a little I hope.

Looking forward to it.

Awesome!  Thanks for the reminder because I got a yardage book when I played the Eisenhower course ... and as it turns out, the Babe is also in there if you flip it over.

We are set!

(I even have a good strategy when playing Industry Hills that I learned my one time there, and it goes like this:  Don't shoot 20 strokes over your handicap.) :-P


Also, completely random and 100% useless fact:  The dumb commercial below, that we've probably all seen 9 million times, was filmed at IH ...

So, looks like the rule is a red shirt for Sunday. Sounds about right. Anyone getting breakfast beforehand? Plenty of fast food in the area, plus a Denny's... :/ I haven't studied the map though.

Salmon maybe? I don't have any salmon shirts. Or peach shirts. I have red.

Alright guys, here are the groups:

I figure that we should all be ok playing the blue tees; if you feel that you should move up a set, let me know (obviously you'll get a few less strokes). I've tried to keep the groups as even as possible (groups 1 and 3 each have a total of 43 strokes, and group 2 has 47 strokes). We will be playing the modified stableford that we've been playing at these. The best 3 scores will count on each hole with the following point structure.

0 - Dbl Bogey or worse

1 - Bogey

2 - Par

3 - Birdie

5 - Eagle

7 - Double Eagle

We'll do the closest to the pin on number 13.

Forgot to ask, can you confirm the tee times and was a warm up bucket included in the price?

Thx.

    • I too, like @GolfLug, remember great wedge, iron shots, or my missed putts, more than my made putts. My most memorable recently, would be: #17 Old Course St. Andrews (last year) I had been putting awful all day (I started 3 putt, 4 putt, 3 putt, 3 putt), but found a putting stroke on the back 9 and was 1 under on the back going into 16 and of course I 3-putted it for a bogey. Got to 17 and my playing partner just hit it into the hotel, so I went a little more left and decided to not try and hit it over the hotel.  And as soon as my ball was in the air, I heard one of the other caddies do the chicken noise.  LOL My shot was a little more left than I wanted, about 185 yards, I hit a 6-iron and it was drawing right at the flag.  The pin was just to the right of he bunker and towards the front of the green. My ball hit short (and just missed going into said bunker) and stopped about 15 feet left of the hole. Had a little left to right break and as soon as I hit it, I knew it was in.  Birdie on the road hole, looked at the caddie and said not bad for a Chicken.  Parred 18 (missed 10 foot birdie putt) for a 35 on the back 9 at the Old Course. #18 Springfield G&CC Last year while playing in our season long match play event, my partner and I get the 18th hole needing to win the match to move on into the knockout round.  We are tied going into 18.  A tie and we lose on overall points by .5.  Our teaching pro is on the other team (very good golfer), so we were pretty sure we needed a birdie to have a chance to win the match, I hit on of the best drives I hit all day and had about 135 yards to the pin, but it was in a place where you didn't really want to be long.  So I hit a PW and it landed just short of the flag but released about 12 feet past the hole, so have a devilish putt coming back down the hill.  Our competitors were away and the pro missed his birdie putt by inches, I thought it was in when he hit it.  So after reading the putt, which probably had a 2 cup left to right break, I made the putt to win the match.   #15 Springfield G&CC A few years back, was playing in the first round of the Club Championship (against the previous years runner-up) and my putter was balky all day.  Got to the 15 hole, 2nd Par 5 on back, and was 3-down with 4 to play.  We both hit good drives, both hit good second shots and we both hit decent 3rd shots.  I was about 15 feet and he was just a hair longer.  He missed his putt, I had another slider putt down the hill, with about a foot of right to left break and made the putt.  I birded the next hole, to go 1 down, but not a memorable putt as I only needed a bogey to beat him on that hole, he had all kinds of issues going on.  Lost on 17, as he birdied it, right after I missed mine to lose 2&1.

    • Ok so as of this point the bug persists. We figured out that I can select the tees (gold or blue) manually and it resets the back 9 scorecard to the Lake course, but as soon as I add #10 manually, it automatically sets the back 9 as Ridge and no amount of playing around with the tees changes it. And it still doesn't save #10 when I sign off. Andy from support said he will speak to the tech team about it, but it seems there isn't anything either of us can do at this point. I've accepted that #10 is simply lost. I now have 17 correct holes and that's going to have to be good enough.
