No, No, V, it was a "birdie" and to halve the back nine and one of my greatest greenside shots... And it will probably be talked about forever at NewPort Cup events in the future.

I know the timespan of when the ball went off the club face and landed ever so softly on the green, then rolled so very, very slowly across the green may have seemed like only a few seconds for everyone, but that special time for me, it was like a lifetime in super-slow motion, for ever and ever.

That's what I call a "Kodak Moment" @iacas  just like the shot of mine you and Mike missed on hole 5 played from the water hazard which I almost holed out....

There are no friggin Kodiak Bears within a gazillion miles of Moon Valley....

Sorry man, that was just so precious. Hey, when I die, let's just say it would be a dagger I wouldn't mind dying from.

I think we should send the cup to Jack Nicklaus for a day too. I heard he chipped on the last day in the last match on the last hole to 'save' the cup. Oh wait, was it some one else??

Who said he was referring to you ???  :-)

He's my buddy, great co-pilot during Newport Cup. I'd still be looking for MV if Kyle wasn't there giving me directions.

Next closest to you would be that hermit Barrett, then we could just loop up the coast to Mike, me, Colin and then Michael to finish off the red team.

A West Coast Team photo would be cool. Maybe you guys can get a golf outing arranged for a Team pic.

A nice sunny day would warm the hearts of us here in the cold winter areas dreaming about playing golf in the warm sun.....

    • This is pretty much how I look at it.  I understand there are times when the piece of mind has value. I think over the long haul I'm money ahead by never buying the extended warrantee. Hell, What do I know? I went to Ch!cago PubIic SchooIs.

    • On my car I got the extended power train warranty. I do read the fine print most of the time. Though at now 37, my eyes aren’t what they were 10 years ago.    The problem with most of these extended warranties on electronics and appliances is you don’t register the warranty with the place you buy the warranty from, which I’ve always found strange. Unless it’s GameStop then you know Alina drops her Switch in the next two years and the screen cracks they’ll replace it. No questions asked.    You buy a slow cooker at Walmart for $50 and the extended warranty is say $6, you have to go through a third party to register your product for the warranty, and it’s pretty damn annoying. Target is the same way. Anything you buy the extended protection on you have to go through a third party.    Why do retailers go through a “broker” for warranties? Because they don’t wanna deal with it? They make me talk to someone from another country, that I can barely understand, when I need my warranty fulfilled.   Sorry for the rant.
    • You may be able to find a regular flex Blueboard on the second hand market. I’m little more than half your age so I swing a shaft that launches pretty low so I don’t have a lot of experience with Regular flex (other than when I try to hit it I miss way to the left).    There are other shafts, such as the newer Ping Alta that I’ve heard good things about. And one that no one talks about. The Jupiter shaft. You can get this shaft for a $100 with a grip and your Ping adapter installed. I was talking to the golf manager at Dick’s Sporting Goods here and he has one in his driver and has nothing but good things to say about it. I thought about getting one for my Paradym Triple Diamond to play it a little shorter, but haven’t pulled the trigger yet.
