  1. Played 11 of Gearhart Links last night. +3, I will gladly take a round like this. Aside from a 2 iron that went too far and cost me a penalty I played some really good golf. Second round of the year, and I’m in better form than I had been the last few. I’m a little slower than I was, but I’m going to start training again. Averaged around 270 off the tee with the driver with a 303 yarder in there. The UDI is still a laser Beamer, 272 on one occasion. The wind was a little stout, but overall a great round. No real “you dummy” shots, only an unfortunate huge hop into a pond that should have been unreachable….
  2. I’ve got a good feeling about Denny McCarthy this week. (Who the …. Is Denny McCarthy?) I am not sure I can LIVe in this era of pro golf.
  3. So, yesterday my wife says. Do you want to take me to play golf? Immediately I thought, ok… sure what do you want to buy or do in return… nothing it turns out, she wants to ride along with me and read a book. This is huge! She has never asked to come with me before, because she hates golf. Can’t wait to Shank-Dog my first tee shot in front of her. At least she won’t know how bad it really is.
  4. Good morning everyone. No more deployments! Have some very good news to share, but you all have to wait until April 8th. I’m Baaaaack!!!
  5. Don’t give a da*m what anyone says. Go Blue Forever.
  6. Can’t do Tiger like that. He’s on his way to Polo to take over for Tom Watson in a few years when he on the Champions Tour.
  7. Just glad to see something new. No red uniforms this year.
  8. Sure. * as long as you follow ESPN’s rules
  9. Good morning - Can’t wait to be signing Hail to the Victors this evening. Go Blue!!
  10. This is a sad moment for Golf. Tiger Woods is owed a lot by everyone who plays this sport, to see such an iconic partnership be tossed out the window is a perfect example of the current culture.
  11. Played for the first time since March of last year. We did a scramble, used all but one hole of my shots. Finished 16 holes before sunset at 4 under. Played one of the best rounds of my life, to include a 274 yard 2 iron to the fringe, a 316 yard bomb drive (wind helped) to set us (me) up for an eagle, just missed. It’s good to say I’m back to the game I love. That 2 iron man…
  12. Can’t wait to be more involved with the Forum again soon. 6 more months and I’ll be back to a few hundred posts a week.
  13. It’s ok. We love Spartans and Buckeyes as much as you love us. Very little, on the field of course. But what’s sports without rivalry
  14. Who’s got it better than us?!?!
  15. Couple of things that really mean a lot to me sporting wise. 2019 Masters: the GOAT with the W! 2024 Rosebowl… it’s been a long dang time! I don’t even care if they get shut out by Washington. Say what you want about them, but these are my childhood and early adulthood memories. Both of them had a huge slump in the mid 2000’s.
  16. Feels like I’ve been gone for years. Jon Rahm to LIV, at least 9 different Callaway drivers, pretty sure I missed a drop of the left dot Pro V1’s, Tiger has returned, Rickie Fowler still has not won… it’s only been 18 months since I have been keeping up. I am sure I missed many things that happened in the golf world. Either way, I am enjoying a nice morning cup of coffee, and a donut.
  17. Yeah. Should be there for at least 3 years this time. Hopefully 4
  18. It’s still morning in Astoria. After a short stint here, the fam and I will be on the move again this summer. Should know where to by mid next week. Could be a game changer for all of us if I end up where I think I am going to. Wouls be some great news. Our oldest daughter just had a spine fusion surgery on Wednesday. She’s recovering well.
  19. Still missing an S there BOSS… yeah I know…
  20. Glad to be here. Probably see a lot more of me again starting around mid June next year. 🏌 Yeah, hopefully Stallions got the Bama signs before he “resigned”… kidding of course, I really hope no one that matters in the hierarchy knew about that garbage.
