  1. Well said!!!!! He has a tough life.....
  2. Wow...got home in time to catch the end of the tournament on Sunday. Caught the Steve Williams interview at the end. I was shocked to see him win a tournament. I heard him talking about it being his biggest win since he's been out on the tour. He was also talking about how nervous he was when he got up on Sunday morning. No wonder he split from Tiger, I guess he fiqured he could beat him so he would just go ahead and win himself. Amazing!!!!!!! BTW.....Was that Adam Scott caddying for him. Man, I miss one week away on vacation and amazing things happen on the PGA tour. These guys really are good!
  3. I love the burial at sea line....In other words,,,,open the chopper door and here's my foot!!!!!!!!! Love It!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  4. Welcome to the forum and congrads on the hole in one...I've been playing steady for 15 years and still haven't got a hole in one..... Congrads
  5. There are good deals in Myrtle Beach you just have to look. If you just check a individual course rate there very high. The best way is a package deal. A few years ago I got a package deal thru the group that handles Glen Dornoch, Heather Glen and Possum Trot..All very nice courses. I think the group is called The Glens Group. I had a summer rate of 99 bucks for 3 rounds in the AM. I'm sure its more expensive in the spring, but I would bet they still have a deal. There's other groups down there also, I know The Witch is in with a few other courses also. Do a little internet work and I'm sure you can save a bundle!!!!! Good luck, Joe PS>My group goes every year and I'm allready looking forward to October to get down there!!!
  6. Glad for the Pack......Anybody who loves football has got to be happy for the Packers!!!! I'm not a true fan, but I have always considered them to be my NFC team since my team is in the AFC. It's good to see GOOD beat EVIL every once in a while. Enjoy your victory! Joe
  7. Norm... Just looked at the trailer for this season...Looking forward to it!!! My family and I will be rooting for ya...Go Luck and thank you for your service to our Country!!! Joe
  8. Thats not it...I signed for a 5 which is what I had. As Iacas pointed out earlier you are responsible for your hole by hole score which I allready knew. This wasn't my first tournament. The problem was that the number that my opponent wrote down on the 18th hole was interpreted by the committee to be a 3 not a 5. My argument was that if it was a 3 my total score would have been 2 strokes lower than what was written. I told them that I thought my opponent had wrote a 5 down and that is what I stood by. I was only using the total score as a point of reference. Unfortuatley, my opponent didn't play that well and said he had someplace to go and he split as soon as the round was over so I didn't have him there to verify what he had written down. What it came down to was that this was a local public tournament and my 75 put my in first place iin the A division. The tournament had a few local boys from that course in the tournament and they didn't play as well. The committee needed to look out for there own... No problem. This happened about 7 years ago and I have never played in any of there events since. I don't plan on giving them any more of my hard earned cash.
  9. My favorite beer is:::FREE BEER!!!!!! Stay thirsty my friend!!!!!
  10. Alot to cram into 1 hour. Although, I personally didn't care for the team format this year, I'm still looking forward to the final episode. I really enjoyed looking at Sara this year, but, I would bet thats a lot of maintenance right there.
  11. I got disqualified once for signing a incorrect scorecard. My opponent who was keeping my score had the worse handwritting in the world. I signed the card for a total score 75 which was the correct score. The committee of the tournament questioned my score for the 18th hole, which was a 5. They said that it looked like a 3. I explained the scorekeepers writing was terrible.The said the other holes that he wrote down were readable and it looked like a 3 not a 5. I told them if it was a 3 it would have been a eagle and my final score would have been 73 not 75. After argueing for 5 minutes I lost. I have never played in another tournament sponsored by these folks since.
  12. I really like my new Titleist AP-2's.....Give em a try!!! Joe
  13. I'm with Shades above.... On our Myrtle Beach trip every year we do it at least once. Stay up and party all night and then go straight to the course. You can allway sleep after your round is done!!!!!!
  14. When my son played Junior Golf tournaments there was a local kid who's mother allways came to his tournaments. She would rent a cart and watch her son play. She would drive ahead and act as a spotter. Funny, she would only spot her son's ball. One tournament I noticed that she had 3 balls in the ball holder of the cart. He son would hit a shot in the woods and she would allways find his ball while the group was walking up from the tee. I noticed that the ball supply in the cart was getting smaller with each stray shot he hit.... You can draw your own conclusions, but, I'm pretty sure what was happening!!!
  15. CONGRADS!!!!! Its a great feeling isn't it....I shot 68 last year and couldn't believe it...Can't wait for it to happen again! Enjoy and have a cold one on me... Joe
