Mrs NCL and I walked 18 at Hillandale in Durham, NC on Wed 3-22. 60 degrees at 1pm tee off, cloudy, windy, spitting rain from holes 2 thru 14. Cleared later but winds picked up. Shot a 51/46 = 97 from mixed tees (about 5600 yards). 39 (!) putts, hit 12 of 14 fairways, 2 penalty strokes for errant shots (1 lost ball).

Nike putter is now in the starting lineup replacing the TM.  Must be the putter, it can't be me!

Since it was a TM putter, I'm 99.99% sure it was the putter.  Smart man to bench that thing.

... Just amazing. We made it to 69* today with 15mph winds. Here are a couple pictures I took today that are supposed to be a barren desert in March. Normally looks like a Spaghetti Western with brown, brown and more brown and some tumbleweeds blowing through. And I am serious about the tumbleweeds. First picture is last February and notice how brown the rough is. This year we have beautiful flowers and green every where, even in the rough! 

[imkirby34]

Who was the clown that said that Miami was going to lose to Drake in the first round?  Oh, yeah, that was me.  🤡

In my defense, that was the closest game, by final margin, of the 3 games they've played so far.  🙄

I actually thought Bama would lose before getting to SDSU, so I was a little concerned about the game tonight. The dark horse pulled through though!
 

1 more round for points!

[NJBigFish22]

I’m really really disappointed in the Longhorns, they could of at least had a off night to help my quest for zero points!

They've could've helped me out, too, since I had Xavier.  😜

 

OTOH and completely unrelated, I might actually get to play golf without rain next week.  Ok, now, I've just jinxed it.  At the very least, it will be cart path only, but we were planning on walking anyhow.
