MN WRX at Tanners Brook, August 17th @ 2PM

[Gripit_Swiftit]

I am open to any/ all options at this point. Like I said, I will bring all of the trade bait I have and a pocket full of cash.

Currently bidding on some drivers on ebay too. Really hope I don't win all 3 I have bids on or that will be tough to explain to the lady.

Amp Cell Pro with Arthur Engineering Xcaliber tour stiff? I also have a brand new in the plastic Rip Phenom Tour X flex if you like that!

The stuff WRX donated to the event came through. 3 Golf Shirts, 1 Long sleeve T shirt, 3 divot tools, a bag tag, set of chips, and 2 putter covers.

Also KBS sent me 3 Hats to give away as well.

It looks like no one should be going home empty handed on Saturday.

On another note, were only at 13 confirmed, maybe 14. Who knows some WRXers that are in the cities that wants to play? We'd love to have 6 more to get to 20!

Big thanks to Rob for all his help on this!

 

I also received a little something from our frineds at Ping yesterday for a VERY nice prize...

 

 

Oh my!! Hope all you MN people can make this! Should be a good one!

[GC70]

Damn that's sweeeet ! I still won't know until Monday. I thought my kid's hockey tourney got canceled , but it didn't. It all depends on game times.

[Gripit_Swiftit]

Swift is baaaaaack, the driver swing is baaaaaaaack. Got hooked up with a SF 2.0 V2 Tour Issue.

Everyone still bring your drivers as 2 weeks is more than enough time for me to screw it up again.

I didn't realize there were prizes and whatnot involved. This just got a whole lot cooler.

Working on getting another guy or two to play. Maybe these prizes will sway them.

[JJensen]

Dibs on the bag gotta bring my A game now!!!

[Gripit_Swiftit]

You can have the bag. I want some of that WRX swag! If I donate multiple head covers (Cameron, iliac) and some other stuff can I guarantee I get either one of those shirts or one of the WRX head covers ? I mean I'll donate the stuff either way but that stuff is pretty, pretty , pretty sweet.

I'm hearing that everyone is around about a 6 or 7 handicap, and we're trying to figure out a prize format. We seem to have an issue with being able to flight this thing, as was the case last time at Prestwick.

I think we all have to bring our "A" games. I don't think anyone will leave diappointed. And if you do, Rob is in charge of complaints. LOL!
Thanks to anyone that can bring some things to donate to the prize pool too like last time! Much appreciated!

Let's get a few more signed up! I'll have to play at least one more round to check it out, but the course was in nice shape last week when I was up there. The drier cooler weather usually makes it play firm and fast. Greens were nice. The wind is usually the big factor at Tanners.

[Gripit_Swiftit]

Yea, let's all play to "6 or 7" handicaps. That sounds fair to me. No need to look at my GHIN. I'll be a gentleman and play to a 6, you can all play as 7's.

I am totally joking about the prizes. I will be donating some stuff but I do not need anything in return. I would love to win/ get any of those prizes but I am not expecting anything other than meeting some WRX'ers and playing some golf.

I will be bringing my "B" or "D" game depending on how one of the 4 new drivers I bought are working.

Currently 8.2. Was a 5 end of last year.

I are not good.

[JJensen]

I haven't played for a while. Only 27 this week. And tonight wasn't pretty.

[Gripit_Swiftit]

Started the year as a 1 feeling good about myself. Currently a 2.7 trending to 3.2. Haven't gone lower than 75 all year. Ready to seek a mental health professional.

Me not do golf so good.

[JJensen]

If anyone needs a set of sweet blades I will be bringing a set if MacGregor M675 3-P with C-Taper S+ with ha. Ill being a few shafts too.

[NRJyzr]

Speaking of MacGregors, I could bring my Muirfields.

Or my Wood Bros blades. A couple different sets of Golden Rams. I suppose I could shaft up the 986 Tours, as well. Too bad the 78 Staffs are in a bit of disarray.

And then there are the persimmons....

[TheDominator273]

6.3 at the last revision, though its bound to go up with how I'm playing. For reference I shot a 55 yesterday subbing for men's league with a 17 on one hole

[mr_divots]

Played Sundance for the first time on Wednesday. Shot a 78 with a stoopid double on a 151 par 3. Tough little course. It was fun.

Did you like that first par 5 on the back, with the crazy sloped green? Good lord....

[JJensen]

Yummmmmy. Do I play these or the CMBs at tanners?

Well, I quit my job on Tuesday and I don't start my next job until the 19th.

Does anyone want to play a "practice" round at Tanners sometime next week? I've never played there before and would love to see it.

Grip,
If you want to play an afternoon round sometime next week let me know. I got meetings lined up all next week in the mornings but I can get out in the afternoons. Let me know in advance and I'd be glad to finally get a round in with you

There were a lot of crazy greens out there. Even the regulars said the greens were like lightning on Wednesday. I had 12 foot birdie putts on #8 & #9 and they ran out on me so much I 3 putted both. If it's the nearly 590 yard hole that you're thinking of, the flag was at the very front, and my 3rd was just in front and I just chipped up and tapped in. I putted really well and it was a good thing as those greens were CRAZY. Oh 3 putted the 1st hole too with a birdie chance above the hole. Don't be above the holes there! LOL! Coulda shoulda kinda round. The greens got me. I was surprised.

I was planning on going up at least one more time before the event. If you guys have a day in mind, let me know. I'm amongst the ranks of the great unemployed at present as well.

I'm tied up in the mornings on Mon and Wed, but open in the afternoons, as well as all day Tues and Thurs. So far, that is.

So if you can stand hideous and malformed, I'd be up for it.

[TheDominator273]

I may be able to make a Thursday practice round if you need a 4th
