MD/DC/VA Golfers - Twelve Monkeys Mental Divergence

[thechief16]

Pretty interested to see how this goes. . .

 

Doak redesigning a muni in Houston that gets 60,000 rounds per year with the goal to be to host a tour event.

 

Andy Johnson and Mike McCartin were talking that this was the EXACT wrong way to do -- take a popular muni and try and renovate in the hope of getting a Tour stop. Seems like Doak gets it, and if anyone can pull it off, I suspect he can. But I am skeptical. Most likely they just make the course tougher for the masses and the Tour pros hate it.

It'll be interesting to look at before and after aerials, to see how many of those trees internal to the course come down. It doesn't look like the greens or tees are really cramped by trees, but there a lot of trees in general. It's not hard to imagine them doing some pretty significant thinning.

But NW gets another 40K on top of that! When's Doak coming to MoCo?

 

How many rounds did you say?

Win win.

I played Memorial Park when I was in Houston for a wedding about 10 years ago. It's a pretty forgettable course. The only things I remember about the round was a helicopter hovering over part of the course for a couple of minutes, it being very crowded and slow, and periodically getting glimpses of the Houston skyline.

haven't gotten shipping confirmation yet. you might have scooped them all up. After hitting those trees and cart paths, you will continue to play that heavily discounted tour ball with that gash in it. Makes me feel like...

You should have seen the piece of sh*t I played 2 rounds with in Virginia Beach. Looked like someone soaked it in dark asparagus whiz, hit it with a serrated knife, and had sharpie squiggles all over it

Ah, so YOU were the one who bought the XVs.

 

I bought a shitload of regular Z-Stars. Reflecting on my backwards scoring slide the past year, getting up and down was a huge problem for me. Some extra bite is needed on the small greens at home.

[SullGolf]

Go_Time downed an entire golden corral buffet. FAbb ate 2 starburst. Maybe that's why he's so wispy. FAbb go hit up the buffet for whatever scraps go_time left behind.

When you remembered to pack your sous vide ribeye for lunch:

[FAbb]

F that noise.

 

I need to get a baller Costco executive level membership, and hop on the HBD Costco food court diet.

[top.h]

Pro tip:

 

For a more vegetable laden salad, open your Costco chicken Caesar, take the dressing out and fill that space with sliced onions from the hotdog condiment section before you mix everything together.

Why don't you just microwave a Styrofoam cup of water, add ketchup and pepper and call it Tomato Soup #beenthere

[TheCityGame]

Kinda snuck up this year, but Hero World Challenge starts today.

 

Always a tasty field.

 

Bubba Watson/Pat Reed make up a very likable pairing. Enjoy missing that one, Fabb.

[FAbb]

Sounds like I need to make friendly with 2MT, and go over to his house to watch some coverage.

I just dumped my Q3 bonus into EagleMore/Hivemore, need to be frugal somewhere

[ceejay81]

Hey guys, I had a salad last night to go with my Safeway ready made meatloaf and Velveeta shells and cheese.

 

Prepare for the iceberg lettuce recall today.

Pretty important article for some of you guys. . .

[baddomes]

Great they list the best ball retrievers right AFTER black friday.

[FAbb]

I've been waiting for the 2018 list to be released. Now I can pounce on that 14ft I GOTCHA with confidence.

 

[ceejay81]

This retriever is golden.

 

[TheCityGame]

The guy I play with most at TV carries a retriever. Probably the best golfer I've ever seen who carries one. He's like a 2. He plays with clients a lot and says they love it when he gets their ball back. He puts a hybrid cover on it so no one knows that he carries one.

 

Speaking of Turf. . .2More and I are starting -- what we hope to be -- a series of events with "our guys". I got a little tired of "am I in or out" with a few groups out there and told 2more we should just start our own dang thang. We're starting this Sunday with 8 guys. . .fourball for 9 holes, singles for 9 holes, then a short putting competition for a bonus half point. I think we could have gotten 12 if we put in a little more effort. Hopefully we can grow it a little and see if guys are down for differently structured play dates. good group who likes to compete, but keeps it the right level of seriousnes.

This time of year in our group we've got such a range of handicaps and given the weather conditions and whose going to show/not show any given week we play quota points, and then we come in the clubhouse after the round and we have a deck of cards to determine teams. We pay out individual for the top 3 with half the pot and then the other half pays out the teams. Keeps guys in it who may have had a bad day but draw some good partners.
