Thunder Hill! There was a lot of guessing (wrong) about landing areas at that track. I felt kind of beat up after that one.

Stupid choice on my part. I'm blaming my youthful indiscretions on that one. :P I apologize again for choosing that place. Ugh. It was not fun.

Was it kind of Cross Creek-ish?

No. It had 1000 lakes or so (an old fish hatchery) and greens that wouldn't hold a lob wedge even if you landed the ball 10 yards short of the green. Tried very hard to be "the most difficult course" and in a lot of ways was, basically, because of how stupid it was. Anyway…

This year, in September, @mvmac  and I will be holding a Ryder Cup-style tournament in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area. This event will take place at the site of Annika's 59, Moon Valley CC in Phoenix, AZ on September 10, 11, and 12.

Our sponsors for this event are:

PING - makers of some of the finest golf equipment on the planet.

Moon Valley CC - Our host course and, as mentioned above, the site of Annika Sorenstam's record-setting 59 round in 2001.

TRUE Linkswear - The shoe that's revolutionizing golf, with its minimalist, zero-drop, low-platform, technology and styling.

PURE Grips - The best grips in the world, made from PURE rubber, with easy-on, easy-off no-tape installation.

KickX - Makers of the KickX Tour Z Golf Ball, one of the longest, softest balls on the market today.

Just a little update…

    • Day 216: 7/26/24 Putting along 3’ 1” wide ruler. Dry swings with a 7-iron.
    • Day 85 (26 Jul 24) - Played 18 today (in the rain for most of the round).  Was a fun day, as rain goes, to work on very different course conditions - course was totally soaked, cart path only (no exceptions per the Supt), so zero ball roll out, soaked slow greens.  How did it play out?  Quite consistent as I shot 84 (43 front, 41 back).  A day of focused wedge play to darts on the green as I did not have to worry about excess roll.  While it was a card full of bogies (11 total), a lone double that was countered by a hole out birdie on the par 3 12th hole.  Solid, solid putting - those darts gave me quite a few one putts (8 total) for 26 putts total.   
    • I just recently bought two pairs of True, originals 1.2 and a lightweight pair which will have to wait until after Winter.  Very comfortable, but they leaked at the hells, unusual design almost like they have a slipper inside at the back with a waterproof membrane.  The leaked  outside of the membrane, but it eventually crept up into the shoe. I’ve had them replaced, but I haven’t really had a chance to test them yet  
    • Maybe his opinion is based on purely apolitical observations?
