To all those who don't pick the East Coast team and me, I am sorry for your loss :-P

Seeing as how I live literally on the east coast, I had to pick the blue. No doubt. But I went with my fellow Swede for MVP. I'm looking forward to a play by play or at least a daily recap. Good luck.

I am assuming Team West is practicing hard for this event, especially, @Golfingdad.

I've heard East Coast golfers all play at private country clubs with caddies in tow a la Judge Elihu Smails.   Don't let that annoy you, Team West.   Show them what you are made of. :beer:

Captains don't play AND you didn't tag properly anyway. Lots of invalid entries. That means if you enter properly you have a GREAT chance of winning.

FWIW, since we've had a replacement or two on the red team: anyone who chose @SoundandFury or @tristanhilton85 as MVP will automatically get their subs as their choices: @Club Rat and @Bechambo .

We don't allow that in our contests.

The part about the captains not playing was in the first post and in bold.

He's being penalized for it as well, automatic loss of hole. @saevel25 and his partner are 1 down on the first tee.

Sure, but only because I don't get extra points for winning 5&4 instead of 4&3.

    • Feel like you are left side dominant. Keep the back of your glove running through impact. Keeps leading edge down without digging. You will pick them clean with some zip if the grass is nice and generally acceptable results off anything less than ideal. Works with both hingy or dead hand pitches and chips.
    • Day 52 (30 Apr 26) - Had planned a solo round, got invited to be part of trio that included a fmr mini tour pro.  Was fun playing back a set of tees and having to stay in my game plan. Both were very engaging and encouraging in the round.  A good day in working through and making smarter shot choices. 
    • Day 576 - 2026-04-30 Put my playlist on and slowed down a little as things were meh. Mostly got to an exaggerated P6 and hit from there.
    • I mean, a golfer is trespassing and damaging property. So, golf rules don’t supersede state laws. 😉 Like, if it isn’t marked and is off golf property. The right thing to do is take an unplayable lie or take stroke and distance.  Also, this is a liability for the course. The homeowner could easily say the course is liable for damage done because they knowingly didn't mark their boundaries which allowed golfers to trespass and damage property. 
    • Interestingly enough, if the course (the Committee in Rules terms) doesn't mark the boundaries, there is nothing out of bounds.  I realize that neighboring homeowners would take a dim view of golfers whacking balls from their backyards, but that's what the Definition of Out of Bounds requires. "All areas outside the boundary edge of the course as defined by the Committee."
