Lol. I’ve had a few injuries in my time but that one hurt the most.

Crushed big toe after getting it run over by a forklift. 90% tear of my bicep tendon loading a mattress into the back of a pick up.

I received my annual “No chance” email yesterday. Well, on to 2022!

Thanks for that!!!!!

What drives me nuts? People who use a lot of exclamation points.

I have several awesome pink shirts 👍.

I work in Palatka twice a month and never even knew there was a course there lol. It looks pretty nice, I’ll have to check it out.

Within 20-30 miles, in no order. All are public courses. Ocala Golf Club. A muni and my home course. There’s an argument about whether it’s the oldest or second oldest course in the state. Stone Creek Country Club. Silver Springs Shores Country Club. Zack Johnson holds the tournament record (Hooter’s Tour) and Ted Potter Jr holds the non tournament record. Candler Hills Country Club. Ocala National Country Club.

I’m not sure how much of a barrier it actually is. If somebody is interested in playing, it’s easy to find out if there’s a dress code and you can get inexpensive golf clothes anywhere, all my stuff come from Beale’s Outlet lol. Overall, I like a basic dress code but it’s no big deal. I play in a Thursday league and we get all manner of dress with most of us coming straight from work. Keep pace and take care of the course. 👍

I knew I could count on you, Dave! 🍻. We’re lookin at playing on Saturday the 20th and the pricing isn’t too bad, $70 if I book it now.

Looking to take my son someplace different for his birthday and I’m thinking LPGA International. Anybody played it? Any suggestions on which of the two courses are better? I played there once about 20 years ago and don’t really remember that much about it so any updated info/opinions are appreciated.

This brings up an interesting question regarding etiquette. Is it better to use just one hole or move around the green and use multiple holes? I gotta admit, it bugs me a bit when somebody “takes over” one hole. I like to move around the green to check different slopes but sometimes there’s holes I can’t putt to because somebody has camped out there. Just curious.

There’s a course in town that we absolutely love to play because it’s always in such good shape but if they start us on #10, we just hang our heads because we know the back 9 will be incredibly slow due to the course giving groups with a tee time on #1 priority over groups making the turn. One time out I shot a 40 on the our front 9 (starting from #10), in the groove, feeling good, only to make the turn and see thee foursomes waiting to tee off on #1. Waited 30 minutes to resume our round and by then, my mojo was gone. 🤯

Plenty of courses here still open and you can find some awesome deals. Playing Shingle Creek tomorrow morning for $39, normal rate for this time of year is $139.
