I've been a member for four years at my club (semi-private) - $3,300 annual, no fees of any kind, unlimited rounds, 10 day advance tee times, free range balls, free locker, free cart, 25% discount on pro shop, excellent practice facility. I've played 184, 202, 178 rounds respectfully over the past three years, and I am on pace to top 220 this year so far. My club is the home of the Northern Texas PGA where the Texas State Open has been held a couple of times. It's a nice track. You can't top that.

Early morning - but only on days that end in "y"

OK. I must confess I have become a big LPGA fan, and I think I might have finally figured out why. The men lack personality like they did "back in the day." Jacobsen, Trevino, Chi Chi, etc. How many of those types do we have now? Sergio - maybe a little? Who else? Tiger is back to his dominating ways, and it looks like everyone is once again scared of him (refer to Colin's comments at the Open). So why do I turn to the LPGA? Because of all the young talent - Ochoa, Wie, Creamer, Gulbis, all the Koreans, etc? I don't think so. Because they're gorgeous to look at? OK, well a lot of them. No, I don't think so. I think it's because they're hitting what I am hitting. Yes, I admitted it. I can't carry the ball 290 off the tee. I can't hit a 6 iron 195. I don't hit a PW from 145, and I damn sure don't carry a 2 iron. These women hit the ball 250 off the tee; they hit a 7 iron 155, and they carry a 7 wood. I can relate to what they're doing. I can feel the shot. My confessional is over, so now does that make me a wuss because I can't hit it that far? Maybe, but I hit it straight; I putt my ass off, and my short game rocks, so I'll still play you from the tips.

My course is five years old, so we obviously don't do it.

I'm tired of Vijay, and I have been since he knocked Annika at Colonial. He's boring without emotion (other than holding his putter up when he makes a big putt - and that hasn't been muh lately).
