My idea is the best username/avatar combo! In that case paininthenuts might be a runaway winner!

I set his avatar when he didn't after awhile. We give new users 15-25 posts…

@boogielicious is about waves. He's all new-age-y hipster like that ;-)

I always like @Stretch. Or @jamo.

Ha! No way. It's old school as in Boogie Woogie and boogie boarding. But it is about waves. 

I like @JetFan1983 because I get to feel sorry for him! :-P

Because it's pretty fitting.

Yeah, me thinks so  too.

However, the best golf moniker I ever saw on any golf forum was "golfjunkiesr" . His caddy went by "shag stick".

Yea I know what it means, it was my bad attempt at a joke :-)

An alternative line would have been about your love of Disco :-P

I'd have to say @boogielicious is up there if not the best. Looking at the responses here many of us have different ideas as to what it means or meant. He's the man of mystery that keeps you thinking with just a name. Boogie on!

@DavidFehertysBike is a good one too. @boogielicious is great because that is so ballsy. Not too many would attempt to impersonate Lady Bey's title.. :beer: (or come really really close to it). If you win, you are going to have to post a video of you dancing, singing and gyrating "All the single ladies.."..

I know of one that is about a really sweet love story but something tells me that they would prefer to be not mentioned or nominated.

If you're talking about me, I don't really care. Also, it's only sweet because I ended up marrying her. Otherwise it would be kinda creepy. ;-)

And if you're not talking about me, uhhhh, you didn't read any of that. I didn't post anything. Shhhhhh.

I like @GolfLug's username but I'd like it more if I understood what the "lug" part meant. I've met Vishal many times, and he's not what you think of when you call someone a "lug."

Lug is Scottish slang for "ear", but I don't think that meaning makes @GolfLug make any more sense to me.

My favorite name is probably @Fourputt.

Well then, since you don't mind basking in the glory out in the open, I nominate you, my main man, as a contender - @iacas precisely because of the story behind it. Funny I though in the beginning it was some sort of acronym for a boring organizational association or something.. lol!

Not all names have to sound like a 'middle C' on a flute to be pretty.

In @GolfLug, the lug stands for a lug nut, like the ones that hold a wheel on the car.. :-) . It's a constant reminder to me to stay grounded, mostly indistinct but very importantly stay purposeful (hold the dang wheel in place) at all times regardless of the sate of motion of the wheel. Just my little personal life super-philosophy..

I like @nevets88, for one because it took me way too long to realize that the letters were Steven spelled backwards.

And @newtogolf makes me chuckle sometimes because he's been playing golf and a member here long enough that he is now a big fat liar.:beer:

Grrrrrr...... Urge to throw keyboard rising....

My screen name is actually a misprint haha. It was supposed to be JetsFan, but I forgot the "s." But I prefer the misprint way now anyway...

But yea, the Jets make me sad. Ugh. I have a stomach ache now.

    • Day 130: did a stack session. 
    • Day 206 (24 Nov 24)  - An easy session with the 54deg wedge and hard foam balls / one simple goal - distance control thru backswing length while not decelerating.  Had a playing partner comment they noticed me decelerating on a couple short wedge shots in last round.  Hit from distances from close to 40yds down to 20. 
    • Musgrove Mill hole #15 was converted to a par 3 after Hurricane Helene. Today, I had 145 from the tee which is a perfect 9-iron for me. I aimed just right of the hole and pulled it a few feet. Clanked off the stick down into the hole and ricocheted out of the hole 13’ away. Drained the putt for a birdie after repairing the hole which was damaged . Not sure if it would have counted as a HIO, but I was pretty excited!
    • Day 55 - 2024-11-24 Did five levels of Operation 36 on GSPro (different courses). 🙂 Was -4 from 200 yards (32) intentionally laying up on each hole (i.e. not hitting a 5I or something). Shot… 22, 24, 26 from 25, 50, and 100 yards. I forget my 150-yard score, but obviously it was < 36. Putting was odd… (and I did it with the wedge or a 7I or whatever was in my hand).
