[bmoney003]

I don't want to mention his name here. But Brian has been made aware and is going to talk to him about not playing again. And said he will be DQ'd for today

Very nice to meet kC. And mixed emotions of this tourney

1) I could only play mine holes. My son has a high grade fever 104.8 and had to WD to get him to a hospital.
2) I was playing very well (I think I was in first after 9) I had three pars, all net birdies. I was at 29 with two holes to play then got the call about my son. And it took me right out of it. Getting two 8's
3) I played w a guy who straight up said he could care less it was a tournament. He pressured us to pickup if we were a stablefored zero. And was complaining why we were playing so slowly. He also didn't follow course rules. He hit from inside conservation areas. And would comment. Eh I don't care I'm playing for fun. He made rude comments like after my cart partner hit his second tee shot into the woods. He said. Hey just out your 7 down and move on.

He made it not fun at all. I wish I could play in the net A.

I'm playing Suday as well. I'm also in the B division. Also I've never had a negative experience in the league yet. I hope it's erred for you.

Also, is your son ok?

Thanks for asking.

He still has a high fever. It has gone down to as low as 101.. But stats around 102-103. Poor little guy. The dr says its viral so we just pump him with fluids and Ibuprofen. He is 23 months and usually super happy. He's been miserable.

But he is doing better

[Imp]

Wow, I hope your son gets better! I hung around for a bit afterwards and was looking for ya, but do what ya gotta do. Hope all is well.

As far as the guy that said it didn't matter, let Brian know what happened and who it was. He's sent out numerous emails that this is tournament golf and should be played as such. If he continues along that line, maybe he's in the wrong place? If he picks up, his marker should assign a penalty for each infraction, etc... it's up to the marker to do so.

Played with a father/son (Can't remember names) and another guy (Doug). All were much better players than I yesterday. I couldn't get a short iron to go straight to save my life yesterday, which mean lots of scrambling to save par/bogey. Was in 3 bunkers and each bunker took 2 shots to get out of. But once I was on the green, I either 2 or 1 putted it (only had 1 three putt). All my issues were off the green.

Even when trying to play safe with short irons or hybrid for shot placement... nothing worked.

And to add insult to injury yesterday, on the way home some lady in prov switched lanes into me and clipped my front driver side of my month-old Subaru. She told the cop I switched lanes into her. Was NOT a good day.

oh man!! that is a crappy end to your day.

Thanks for the advise...yes Brian is going to talk to him....I also found out I will be in the A division come next event...

I was hitting my tee shots (I used the 3 wood for many because of the hole setup) Hitting my irons very well...was just getting into trouble by just missing in spots you cant miss...i.e. short side with big hills there or bunkers etc. but my putting was also on...I think it had alot to do with the great condition of the greens...very true roll

Wish I could have played the whole 18. oh well. looking forward to sunday!!

[KjBowen]

Look forward to seeing you all sunday at Triggs

If today is a inclination on how I will play I will be happy.

Shot par on the front 9 at Laurel Lane and missed a 3 footer to shoot 1 under.. didnt miss a shot.

[geoangus]

Sounds like you guys are having a good time. Maybe next season I'll give it some more thought - nice course selection. Plus I've had the pleasure of playing with KC, so I know you all are in good company. Keep the stories coming!

Chris will attest to this.

Just have fun.. That's the only thing that matters

[bmoney003]

I know. No doubt I will.

I have played triggs to an 83. Also played it to a 95. So tomorrow is a crapshoot

I'm excited though. Should be a great time

[KjBowen]

If either of you are interested.

I'll be there at 730 to warm up and hit the range along with some short game practice

[bmoney003]

I'll be there around 8:15. I have to let the wife sleep in a bit since she is working till midnight. In only live 10 mins away so that should give me plenty of warmup time

[Imp]

Have fun guys. I'll be watching the results.

Played a fun round with good guys
I didn't really play as bad as my score
Greens were beyond terrible.. No putts rolled straight
I had a triple and a quad on hole 1 and 3
Played better after that and after I used my 3 wood most the holes.. That thing is a rocket
Also almost made my first ace on the closest to the pin hole.. 9 inches away!
Thanks Brian and Chris for a good round
