Pebble Beach

Well I just watched my little brother tee off at Pebble Beach......from the comfort of my tiny cubicle in a windowless building 2,500 miles away. :russian_roulette: The good news is, if I can survive this, I'm assuming I can survive anything.

Ha! nice, so that first tee camera is good for more than just drooling at the course huh?

Yes, watched him putt on the practice green for 15 minutes too. They have cams on the 9th, 17th and 18th greens as well but, I warn you, proceed with caution. I'm just waiting for someone from IT to come confiscate my computer now.

That's why I love being in IT....... just got to make sure I don't have anything fun on my screen when the locked down users come to complain about something

I streamed a good bit of the Master's coverage last year without incident, so I'm probably in the clear.

Well, someone has to play the course right? It might as well be your brother. :-)

I knew you dirty ba$tard$ did that crap! I can't go to YouTube but I can go to pgatour, a few other sites and of course this one. I have a lil computer tech in me so when I asked our IT guy his answer was simply that it won't let him due to our business protocol. Ha ha oh well I do have GolfWRX!!

maybe the greens are punched.. they always do it this time of year... either last week of March or first week of April.. if that makes you feel any better..

Here's the link to the live cams http://www.pebblebeach.com/golf/pebble-beach-golf-links/live-golf-cams.

I'm happy for him, that eases the pain a little......I think. He played Spyglass Hill yesterday and said it was great. It's a fundraiser trip for his golf team so they're staying at the resort and playing 1 of the courses each day. Man, it hurts just to type it out like that.

Ha, yeah I definitely am. I'm happy for him, this was his first big trip anywhere and it apparently was awesome. Most of this is in jest....most.

Ha ha I figured it was. I like the most at the end. My uncle was at the Masters last year. He has not clue about golf but loved his trip up there. I'm hoping to get drawn one year and experience it for myself.
