If so go to the PGA Tour thread and make your picks there. This time I’m asking for 7 picks (instead of 6 picks) in addition to you picking the final score to par of the tourney winner. Make sure that your 7 picks aren’t identical to anyone who picks earlier. All scoring rules will be the same as what was used for the US Open. Deadline is 11:59PM EDT Wed 7/17. I have entered my picks in the thread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best round I've ever seen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first thing I saw when I went to the NHGA website was the final round pairings and it just happened to have a kid, well a kid to me, who is from this area of VT and played and worked at my former golf course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreaves Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 @kdxkeni took a few more pictures of the from the front 9 at my course this afternoon. You’d also be interested in the numerous trees they have marked to take down over the off season. Some really big, old sugar maples that are at the end of their life, a few ash and several big white pines. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't tell you how many similar I've played. The kind where folks play through any kind of weather until they're told to get off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavisStraight Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 We used to go up to Cooperstown every July during induction weekend and we golfed at a course built in the late 1800s, odd layout but fun. The lowest score on the course was from the early 1900s when they used 4-5 clubs, amazing to think a guy shot a 30 with the old clubs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mreaves Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 So I bought new irons earlier this year and I’ve done ok with them. Still need lots of work from the fairway. I seem to hit them better with a little grass underneath the ball and our fairways tend to give pretty tight lies. Late in the year I made what I consider my best golf purchase ever, a Ping G430 driver. I didn’t get a massive increase in distance but my consistency has greatly improved. It’s especially noticeable with my mishits. Don’t get me wrong, I’m still a 19-20 handicap but my driving is so much better. I sort of don’t want the season to be ending. At least it’s gone out on a beauty. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisrotary12 Posted November 1 Author Share Posted November 1 Got fitted and ordered new irons last week. Titleist T150s. Vokey Wedges. And a taylormade driving iron. First new irons and wedges in 12 yrs. Wicked excited. The new driver and woods over the summer were huge. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisrotary12 Posted November 1 Author Share Posted November 1 Since it is year end scramble tournament season a thought is running through my head: if you played all 4 players of a scramble, what would you shoot? i.e., you hit 4 off the tee, 4 into the green, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
