    Date 07/25/2023 Course Name Mountainview GC, Morgantown, Wv Gross Score 70 Course Handicap 7 Gross Strokes over/under par -2 Net Score to Par -9 Net Score 63 Net Birdies or better 8 Longest Drive 259 Played well even after rolling out the cart! just kidding. 
    Greens and fairways need some work, bald dried out areas on some greens and a lot of crab grass in almost all fairways. This course used to be in tip top shape in the past, but now seems all they do is cut and water.
    The Lakeview course is a different story, always nice and plush. 
    Can't wait until my BAG TAG arrives, so I can REPRESENT!!!!

    Date 07/29/2023 Course Name Willow Fork CC Gross Score 80 Course Handicap 5 Gross Strokes over/under par 8 Net Score to Par 3 Net Score 75 Net Birdies or better 5 Longest Drive 268 Came out of the gates SLOW this morning.  3 Doubles on the front nine.... 2 OB holes and one Water... So 5 penalty strokes and the additional strokes due to the mental anguish of 5 penalty strokes... but did have a birdie mixed in there.  Smooth 44 going out.  Turned to the back nine with a new attitude, and birdied 10, and strung a bunch of pars together with one bogey to shoot even par 36 on the back.  I guess I can say I'm happy to shoot 80 with 5 penalty strokes.

    Played ok but this course will grab you when you least expect it. It's a good challenge for all levels of golf.
    Just pick this up at a golf outing by winning the longest putt.

    How long have you been playing golf? What’s your handicap or normal score?
    I have been playing golf for 43yrs, starting out playing when I was 13yrs old, played for my dad's Spaulding Epic forged blades. Wish I still had them! 
    My current handicap is 7, but at one point I was a scratch golfer for most of the 1990's through early 2000's. Then life happened and I've been trying to get back to scratch since then. I can still go low and hold my own against the younger crowd.
    What do you love about golf?
    The best thing is that it is you and only you against the course, also playing with family and good friends makes it even more enjoyable.
    What brings you to MyGolfSpy? Do you already know any other Spies?
    I wanted to be part of a world class group of fellow golfers sharing and reviewing experiences and equipment with honest opinions.
    Where are you from? What is your home course?
    Hopwood, Pa - Uniontown CC. -- https://uniontowncountryclub.com/ucc-golf/ 
    What are the best and worst things about golf in your region?
    Best- have access to several types of courses, from Private, Resort, and public. all within a 20 mile radius.  Worst - some of the pricing for the course is not equal to the quality of the course.
    What do you do for a living?
    Technical Analyst for a fortune 500 company for the telecommunication industry handling Cell phone towers, fiber optics and small cells.
    How’d you pick your user name?
    PUTSO -- this is a family nickname that started with my dad's oldest brother and has been attached to all the male family members. It is legendary around home in regards to baseball, my dad played against Maury Wills and Don Zimmer in the PONY Class D minor leagues 
    Buck -- this was start in high school by a few girls that I had the pleasure of knowing, as well as my brothers friends that we all partied with back in the day. They came up with the saying --
    Buck Buck likes to .... SkI  -- but it was actually supposed to be another word. LOL
