So I just finished my write up on Freddy and went to my third lesson. I'm talking with Jeff Parsons, the pro working with me, and he tells me that he competed against Couples in high school. Jeff came in second to Couples over in Wenatchee, Washington shooting 76-72. Couples went 68-68 for the win. Small world.

Jeff is a great teacher BTW, we might see him at the Sand Trap soon.

He shot 12 strokes worse and finished in second?

How much worse did last place do! It'd be nice to have a few teaching pros around here. It can't hurt their business, any...

Lost Ball played in a four-some with Freddy when he came down to what was once called Freeport-McMoRan Golf Tournament in the mid 90's....

Suffice to say, Lost Ball was not impressed with Couples. Surprised at how rude he was and many times he cursed....nothing wrong with cursing but using it every three words and complaining about a hang-over all 18 holes didn't really do anything for Lost Ball
Golf is so popular simply because it is the best game in the world at which to be bad.

Lost Ball gets losts of blisters when the gloves aren't on

Lost Ball loves the grip though and won't change it even with the blisters
