Joe vs pro

[Gunther]

I think we're due a couple updates. Mmvac's worst ball 9 and of course results from the Joe v Pro match.

They started at 3:30 AZ time, so I think it will be at least a couple hours before they are done and he can get in front of a computer with an icy beer in hand.

Mvmac, does owe us some results. Since he's my pro, I wonder if. . .

[mchepp]

It may be a while waiting for @mvmac to play again. He practices a fair bit, but doesn't play all that often.

As for @VegasRenegade I am anxiously awaiting the results.

[Ernest Jones]

The suspense is killing me. I'll be checking back later this evening.

[David in FL]

AZ is what, Mountain time? Hell, it'll be 10:30 Eastern at the earliest, unless he drops us a quick note from his phone! Ugh.....

[Lihu]

He's on the site! How'd it go???

[VegasRenegade]

Ok results are in. But I am to tired to post,.... Just kidding. I won the first 6 holes so match was over. We started on hole 2 to be sure we got ahead of some members getting ready to play, I hit the ball terrible on first hole but saved boggie to win pro hit three wood off ever T 250 plus. HIS FIRST shot striped down the middle buy second slice behind a tree. First shot from behind tree he cut it and put it to up close but second shoot hit tree and went 40 yards backward, he got a double. Second hole I hit bad t shot but good 2nd then hit 9 iron to 5 ft, pro made par I drain first put for bird, first 6 holes went just like that pro would make one great shot then get in trouble on second. He twice sank first putts from 18, 20 ft, but then missed second one. He hit three trees. It was hard to watch, I was one over after 6, then my weels fell off. HIT BOTH tee shoots in the water on par three pro was on green, on ball was only half way submerged so I played it got all wet but did get ball out but scored tripple. One for pro. I got double next hole pro got par. So I am up 4 holes going into last hole which was the par 5 10th. Pro presses the bet, we both have a par putt pro from 12 ft me from 8, He drained them both. My first was short by less than an inch. Second was off line So know money changed hands. It was a very fun format

Very nice, cool format. Bet the pro wants none of that again.

Glad I did not play you. But a video of my pro would have been more interesting

Wow, forget I mentioned anything. . .

Thx guys. I would say I had my A- game today, didn't drive it in any trouble (gave myself a clear shot at every green), had a lot of good "misses" and the putting was really good. The other thing that works in my favor is the course I play, Bernardo Heights CC, is a relatively easy course. Here's the nine I played, it's not a long course even from the blue tees.

Missed 3 greens and made two up and downs, on the par 3's. Funny thing is that the hole I bogeyed is one I typically play well. My goal was to break 40 so hitting 6 greens with 9 N-gir's gets that done. Making those putts for par is just a bonus.
