Rickp Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I know this ain't golf related or whatever but I bet your day was not near as interesting as mine It's a good thing my Dad trained me on how to be a good goat wrestler back in the day. I'd be the one whose job was to tackle the goat and hold him still while my Dad gave em a worm pill. The pills were rather large and those goats weren't particular happy having one slid down their throat. Anyways today my wife called me and asked if I would come down to the shelter and help her while she was taking pics of the dogs. She is a good photographer and has helped several of the dogs become adopted are fostered through her skill. If folks don't see em they won't adopt. Ok so back to goat wrestling skills. We had two pit bulls and one lab to take pics of today. For anyone not familiar with pit bulls, they are really strong dogs! So I hop in the first cage and put the collar and leash around Diamond which was not as big as Boomer who I later had the pleasure of wrestling. Because Diamond was not a particular huge pit I figured she would be a breeze. Well I get her out of the cage and about to take her outside when she turned up the jets and pulled my old arse around the yard like a rubber duck toy! I walked her all around the shelter trying to wear her down a bit and boy was that a joke. She reminded me back when I would help my Grand Dad with the plow mules. So after I got the drift that this little heifer had rocket fuel in her blood, I suggested we take her down to the holding pen and try and get some good pics. We finally nailed down some solid pics and took Diamond back to her launch pad. I was worn out when my wife said ok now we need to get Boomer out for some pics. Oh my GAWD! I found out quick why they named that hoss Boomer! I thought the female pit was strong. I got him all harnessed up and we left his cage and out for his picture taking session. Well Boomer wasn't interested in picture taking. He took off and dragged me around the yard like I was behind a jet ski! He had a chest the size of mind and his head was twice as big... That ole boy seemed to enjoy how much he dragged my 200 lb frame around the yard at record speeds.... My wife yelled out, " Hold him still"! I replied back, "hold em still my arse"! That pit had to be a rodeo bull in his prior life... We or rather him took us down to the holding pen and turned him loose so we could try and get some good shots. My wife was finally satisfied with her pics. Me and my buddy Boomer had this little match going back up the hill to see who could out pull the other. It's a good thing I was a goat wrestler back in the day. Where's my extra strength pain meds!!!!!

If I'm behind I will ask as we head to the next hole "that puts you 2 up, right" or something like that. That way I'm letting my opponent off the hook if they feel uncomfortable about saying it. Sent from my Pixel 3 using MyGolfSpy mobile app I try to do that as well, but when you are keeping score, at some point with 5-6 holes to go, I think it’s important to make sure everyone knows where the match stands. It just sucks when there’s 5-6 holes left and you are up 4 and you have to bring up the scores. tony@CIC and gaussman1 2 Quote Lefties are always in their Right Mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rickp Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Beautiful morning 70* @ 7:30 tee time. Shot a 45-43-88.This was the first time we played a course that the greens were recently reseeded with TifEagle hybrid grass. I only made a couple of decent putts as these greens were tough to read.
