  1. Wow... i wish i had your numbers.. 9 iron 175? your Driver averages 320.. mannnn so if you miss hit 1 drive to 200.. you'd have to average 350 on 4 other drives.. i can't even count that high!
  2. Add on question, and not meant to thread drift.. but say i'm walking towards my ball in a pine needle/branch infested area.. i'm 2 feet away but a rock or something moved, causing a cascade of movement, thus moving the ball. no intent, just walking towards the ball. is that a penalty?
  3. Weeee are the championnnns!! :) NE defense got me 23 points, and my kicker got me 19.. so despite 2 players getting 0s, still won the finals. :D
  4. Oh man.. I was down by some stupid number of points, and New England's DEF/ST pulled it out for me with 33 points. hahaha :)

    2010 Ryder Cup

    Anyone annoyed by the commericals? I mean literally they come show 2 putts, and a drive, and it's off to commercials again.. I DVR'd it, watched an hour of something else, and caught up that HOUR of programming in like 2.5 hours of 'game time'.. I know there has to be advertising, but this is just excessive..

    2010 Ryder Cup

    Single strategy - send your hottest players out first, hoping to finish with a win. Send weak players out later hoping they'd get an auto 'half' even if they're down 5 ;)
  7. Sun Mountain marketing people are banging heads on wall, while their design people are being dragged out and beaten. :(
  8. I just realized, our league is NOT a PPR league is it? confused it with another Yahoo league.. poicked a bunch of receivers.. damnnn
  9. Oh ok.. when I refinanced. i think I went from 5.5 to 4.875.. but i'm not sure i paid any cost.. b/c they had a schedule of costs.. and literally a credit for all amounts. Apparently the agent makes money from bank kickbacks.. but yah.. it's kinda confusing.. thank you!
  10. Can someone explain why you SHOULDN'T refi unless you get a significant reduction in rate? i.e. if i have 4.875 now, why shouldn't I refi down to 4.5? assuming it's a no cost refi.. i literally pay nothing? please help! thanks!
  11. worth it for me b/c i put my range finder in that 'net' thing under the handle.. a pain without it.
  12. yup. .he just needs a slump buster.. ;)
  13. exactly.. b/c on a par 3.. the 4th shot is bogey.. (and swap ball), does the 8th shot mean you swap to a 3rd ball? :)
  14. What's an "Outing"?! how is that different than a regular full course of 4-somes? thanks!
  15. It's pretty silly to compare yourself to a pro. No Pro can chip in from 15 feet 100% of the time.. but all of us CAN, and probably have done so once in a while. does that mean we're better than pro?
  16. i record - score - putts - fw - # of penalties (so if i have a 7, i can know if it's 2 from OB + a 5. or i flat shot a 7).
  17. I noticed that too!! Before i broke 90, i was the easiest going player out there.. hit OB.. laugh it off.. hit an approach into the water - shrug.. smile.. walk over to drop Now - i get frustrated even practicing in the range b/c my ball flight isn't what i want. ?!?! better playing = less enjoyment?? :(((((
  18. I think this is the best approach. You organize the event.. not a course marshal. it's the player's responsibility to keep pace, it's the course/course marshal's responsibility to enforce that rule. if the marshal tells her to pick up her ball, that's not your fault/problem at all right? I think a 'general talk' up front is not bad either, but i wouldn't enforce it with her since it's not really your 'responsibility' as the event organizer.
  19. That's errily similar to mine 89, 90, 87, 103, 87, 90 were the last 5. how did the 103 get in there.. :)
  20. I used to never ever break 90.. then last month, i shot 89.. first time ever. last week i shot 87.. this past weekend, 87 again. Still having the 95/98 rounds, so my handicap isn't dropping significantly, but why is it once you do it once, you can suddenly do it again.. like a dam is broken kinda thing. looking forward to breaking 80. (i guess that's why they call it BREAKING... ) :)

    really? I thought a bunker was considered a hazard, so you can take a one stroke relief, under 1 stroke penalty? i've never done it.. b/c i can usually advance it further than 1 stroke.. but i'm just curious.
  22. It's just waiting to be asked, so I'll do it. Is the one you kept the one with bigger tits/lowER maintenance? :)

    Discouraging

    Rule question based on this: couldn't you have moved your ball out of the bunker.. dropped it, and took a 1 stroke penalty?
  24. Found the answer to my own questions: http://www.usga.org/Rule-Books/Handi...l/Rule-04/#4-3 Example: A player with a Course Handicap of 6 has a maximum number of par plus two strokes (double bogey) for any hole. A player with a Course Handicap of 13 has a maximum number of 7 for any hole regardless of par. A player with a Course Handicap of 42 has a maximum number of 10 for any hole.
  25. ESC for hdcp 0-9, double bogey is max score.. ok When they say for HDCP 10-19, the score is 7. but a 7 is 4 over on a par 3, and 2 over on a par 5. how does that work? 10-19 can score a 4 over par on a par3 hole?
