  2. Best round of the day doesn't equal one of the best rounds of all time. Johnny's was a better round, hands down.
  3. My wife just asked what I was doing. "Looking at porn" I replied. Nice!
  4. Wow! I thought I was excessive with three dozen.
  5. No clue other than it was a very high score. My first round was Summer 1981. How much do you remember from the Summer of 1981?
  6. I used to walk/carry all of the time, and I really miss the connection with the course. Then I hurt my back and started using a push cart. Still ok, but not as good as carrying your clubs. Now I live in a golf community and own my own cart. I haven't walked a course for some time, but I am able to play a lot more frequently.
  7. When I took up golf back during the last century, I was told that the only acceptable comments about another's golf shot are: "Ball" and "Golf shot". How can I say nice shot if I have no idea what they were trying to do with the shot? That being said, when playing with my regular group, we say a LOT more than that.
  8. If you're riding (not the driver), take your shot and get into the cart. Put your club back into your bag when you go to pull your club for your next shot. I'm amazed at how long some people spend simply putting a club back into the bag. I only do this if the group behind is waiting.
  9. I have several brands that I have used for a long time...Ping irons, TaylorMade woods...but if I find something I like better, I'll change. About the only golf brand that I will probably not try another brand to replace is . Their shoes always fit me and are always comfortable. I have tried others in the past with disappointing results.
  10. Wow. A 144 slope on a 6200 yard course says a lot!
  11. For several years I too would re-read this book at the beginning of the season. Now I live in a climate where I can play year round, so there is no beginning or end of the season, but I still pick it up occasionally. This is the only golf instruction book that I have re-read multiple times.
  12. My lowest score was a 74 on a par 71 course. My handicap at the time was probably around a 12. This year I managed my lowest 9 hole score of -2, but couldn't maintain that pace on the back nine, and fell apart to finish with a 78.
  13. I have not had the pleasure of playing any Ross or Tillinghast courses, but I have enjoyed all of the Arthur Hills and Nicklaus courses I've played. Also, while not in a class with those already mentioned, I've played a couple of Gary Panks courses recently that I really enjoyed.
  14. This is a very difficult question to answer since the perceived difficulty of a course is directly related to how well I am playing on a given day. I played very well on Carnoustie, but have been beat up mercilessly on a local muni. Also, experience on a course can make what seemed to be a very difficult course play much easier. That being said, and knowing full well that my two caveats play into this choice, I would have to pick The Prince in Princeville, Kauai. While I enjoyed the round, I was exhausted by the end of it. It really beat me up.
  15. I did the exact same thing, hit rewind on the DVR (the term rewind just doesn't seem right for a DVR) to make sure that I saw what I thought I had seen. I think other's comments about Adam being too focused to notice are spot on.
  16. I played the gold course at the wigwam resort in Litchfield Park, AZ yesterday and absolutely loved it. I have been lucky enough to have been able to play several of Robert Trent Jones Sr.'s courses over the years and really enjoy playing them. I would have to say that he is my favorite. Who is yours?
  17. I was amazed at Azinger's lack of knowledge of the rules of golf as he was stating that Tiger should take an unplayable lie and drop outside the bunker. This is a former tour player who makes a living announcing professional golf. You would think that he would have at least a basic grasp of the rules of the game.
  18. 8. Would be a 10 if it weren't cropped. Don't you just want to HIT IT!
