No! The tweet just said they won. I'm not reading anything into it. Just that they won. Sorry for the confusion.  Good to see Vince/Hunter bounce back!

2 more points left to be decided today. Match 3 on the back 9 somewhere. East up by 3.  So the lead will be as low as 1, as high as 5 upon completion.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Congrats to Michael, who was a part of 5 of the West's 8.5 points, thanks to a strong West finish in Match 3 in the afternoon.

Everyone on the East took part in either 3.0 or 3.5. That's some balance for you.

Thank you. Not bad for a guy who arrived at 3:30am last night. Maybe I should play more often on 2 hours sleep.

Great game so far, if you're a Pats fan like me.

What a great day, 36 holes at Moon Valley.

Morning round was great fun, Kyle & I playing Dave and V.

On the 6th hole, I knock one stogie for a kick-bird and just I was beginning to like my new buddy V, he goes and rolls a twenty footer to save a halve on the hole.

Dave was a stud today, played very well.

But, the shot of the day was made by Kyle on the 17th tee.

Google Moon Valley and view this dogleg right hole design.

It's ridicules from the back tee. Requires a big banana ball around a huge tree which blocks the entire fairway.

Anyway, Kyle decides to play a severe hook, though the neighborhood.

He plays this shot which had to carry eleven roof tops and hook 150 yards back to the golf course.

I told that ball had to fly over LA to clear all of those homes.

Played the afternoon round with Colin and things went well for the Big Red Team.

Colin can flat move the tee ball.......

Great swing, fun to watch.

Also, for those who don't know, Matt can hit the ball to the Moon !!!

My new buddy V made amends...

Only took a few pics today, hoping for clear skies tomorrow.

      New Golf Grips. Talk to Me

      By snapfade ·

      I had the D-9's a while back, thought the stock Wilson grips were rubbish.  I put Pure grips on them. Pure is now out of business but available on Golfworks.  Currently some colors in stock as of today. PURE Wrap Golf Grips - The GolfWorks PURE Golf's tackiest grip, the Wrap features a perforated wrap design and is ideal for golfers that prefer a slightly softer, more muted feel at impact.

      Water in Bunker

      By DaveP043 ·

      If he had to hit over the bunker, I'm guessing he was further from the hole, although "in front of" implies the opposite.  If that's right, that may have been the right spot for penalty relief, a single PS.

      Water in Bunker

      By iacas ·

      Did you look up any Rules before posting here? What did you learn or find? You don't get to drop (or place) closer to the hole. 16.1(c) deals with relief for Abnormal Course Conditions in bunkers. You're granted free relief for: Since you say the bunker was basically entirely full of water, you likely wouldn't get complete relief, so for free (no penalty strokes), you are entitled to "maximum available" relief. If there's a spot in the back of the bunker away from the hole where the water is the shallowest, then you can drop there. If you don't like any of those options, you can take a penalty stroke and drop out of the bunker, behind it: You seem to have played from a wrong place (nearer to the hole) and thus likely should be penalized two strokes. It doesn't sound like a serious breach, at least.
