What the interwebs tell me, it's be like Waffle House hashbrowns. Scattered.

As far as a 17th man, anyone I know that might go would fall under the non-golfer category. Guys that don't do rules and don't have handicaps.

As for myself, I like mine "smothered" and "covered"!

FWIW, weather.com has only a 20% chance of rain on Sunday now (Saturday still doesn't look good).

Glad to hear we (might) have a 17th.

Yes, the forecasts change constantly. My buddy's Son was on vacation the first week of August, and we golfed it up! Played 5 times in 6 days. T'storms in the forecast every day, and we only saw a drop one day. We just battened down the hatches, rode it out, and finished the round.

Well, weather types have been known to get things wrong. Maybe we will get smothered and covered. Wouldn't be my preference though.

P.S. If for any reason the teams aren't fair or you want to change them, just PM me.

P.P.S. @macdaddy18 wishes to have the last tee time.

Erik:

Pairings look good to me. Suggestion:  Maybe send group pairs # 3 and 4 off first.  Low-cappers who hit the ball a ton.  I played with Jeremy last year and he can hit it long.  My group (daves and Dennis (1) and Slice and Slice can go off in the second grouping if its ok with Slice and his partner.  I'd be more than happy to follow the big hitters and go off second grouping.

Slice Of Life:  Is it okay with you to be paired with me and Dennis and go off as the second group? We all seem to be of similar hdcp and skill level.

As an aside, Dennis and @daves will be at the course tomorrow around 8:15.

Looking forward to a fun round, gents.

I did message Erik last night to request one of the later times tomorrow, but it really isn't that critical.  I'll be happy to do whatever works for the rest of the group.  @cupslam and I would like to play together - he's also a local guy (Sandusky), but we rarely play together these days - if that's ok w/ our partners, @saevel25 and @Jeremie Boop.  @Hardspoon, sorry we don't get to try to defend together, but you're probably better off w/out having to carry me on your back to victory again!  Looking forward to the event and thinking very dry thoughts. . .

I only made two-man teams. I didn't make foursomes or set the order of those foursomes.


BTW, everyone remember to bring your @GAME Golf units!

I'm at the hotel now. Rain is heavy and coming in horizontal. The friggin tv isn't working either. As soon as it slacks off a little, I'm going to the course, even if that means mostly sitting in the bar.

Weather ... great.  And I'm supposed to be on stage playing music in Wooster, outdoors in this weather.  If we get our show in, it'll be a miracle.

Let's hope for dry weather tomorrow morning through early afternoon.

Ok.  Certainly can wait until the morning.  Dennis and I can go off whenever and with whomever.  Teams 1 and 2 looks like a good match.

I think at this point we'll probably just end up hanging out in the lounge here, drinking, eating, talking. Tonight.

Tomorrow still a go.

    • Day 36: 15 balls, same as last few days. Then a little indoor putting.
    • hey guys, sorry about the kind of short notice, but i'm not going to be able to make it to the outing this year....  
    • Had to correct the distance - should have read 5,400 not 5,500  yds. 
    • Had to report this one - played Minnesott again today with my son.  We played behind the Friday Men's group and had a decently paced round.  My round started off par-par-bogie.  I was feeling good to be +1 through three.  Played the next two par - par and then disaster hits - well I thought it may be the unravelling of +1 through five.  Tee shot on six is a hard pull hook into the ditch separating four and six.  I know the ball is lost and re-tee - hitting three off the tee on this par five.  Long story short - what should have been at worst a bogie became a triple 8.  Now I'm +4 through six holes.  Get a solid par on seven (which I celebrated as a solid recovery hole).  Eight is a birdie and I'm back to three over.  Nine, a par 3 over water, finishes par for a 39 front.   We roll to the back to where I birdie ten (the toughest hole on the back) to be -1 after the first hole on the back, +2 for the round.  Par eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen and fifteen - that was an in the zone moment.  Have to note that fourteen - the second par 3 on the back - I hit the tee shot just short right of the flag.  Easy pitch with the 56 should put me close for a tap in par.  It does not happen - as I duff the pitch to about 3yds closer.  I reset and this time I nip it nicely only to see it land and slowly roll to the cup and drop in for a chip-in par save ( a first).   We get to sixteen and I am thinking this could be a really good round.  It's also a par 5 and I hit a solid tee shot.  I'm about 220 from the center of the green and figure I can layup with the 3w as there is a nice landing area in front of the green and it would play nicely into the typical distance I hit this club.  I'm sitting about 50 yds from the flag to the right hand side.  I overcook the 56 and see the ball bounce off the back of the turtle green.  I hit an easy 56 again to see the ball roll to the other side of the green.  Long story it became a 3putt double.  Now I am +4 through sixteen.  The last two holes are solid pars - one an up and down, the other a GIR two putt. Finished the back 1 over at 37.  Total score is a 76!  A new personal best.  Best "all around" play through the bag to date. 
    • Day 562, May 17, 2024 Spent a LOT of time on GEARS stuff today, so while waiting for imports, exports, and all manner of things, I did some rehearsals in the mirror and camera in my basement.
