Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy WOW brings back memories in that area. A friend of mine who was a carny owned a trailer in Winter Haven. So in the summer when he was out on the road and I was down playing the Mini Tours I stayed in his trailer free of charge. Good base of operations for me since we played mostly in the Orlando, Kissimmee and Tampa areas. Now believe it of not that place was quiet in the summer but fall and winter it was party central. I stayed down one year to the fall and took a job at a Chevy Caddy dealer in Tampa. Did not have any tools with me per say but detailed cars and did general building maintenance. Was supposed to go home Thanksgiving and get my tools and return but never went back. I called the manager and told him I was staying in Greenville NC. Went back the following spring to play golf again---- Man those were the days. LOL that was how I got one of my nicknames "Trailer Park" Edited February 13 by BIG STU 6 2 Quote Driver --- Honma G1-X Stock R Flex---- 3W Callaway Steelhead UST Pro Force Gold 65 stiff--- 2 iron 1980 Macgregor VIP Nike R flex-------- Irons 3 thru PW 1980 Macgregor VIP Hogan Apex shafts--- SW Cleveland 588 Sensicore S-400-- Putter Rusty Santa Fe Bulls Eye Fluted shaft-- Bag Old School Hoofer I had in the stash--- Goes along with my raggety persona Link to post Share on other sites

We had light rain all day yesterday and temps stayed at about 29 so it was creating a lot of icicles. I kept watching the trees but for some fantastic reason it didn't build up on the branches too much. 26 this morning and its an ice skating rink on everything on the property, even the stone driveway is ice covered and slick. The dog didn't like trying to hop back up the icy deck steps, after the first one she turned around looking at me for a boost. 4 Quote Modern Bag: Ping G410+ 9*, Accra TourZ X265 M5; Callaway Mavrik 16.5* 4W, EvenFlow Riptide 6.0 S 70g; Mizuno JPX 919 HMP 4i, PX LZ 6.0; Mizuno JPX 900 Forged 5 - PW, PX LZ 6.0; Cleveland Tour Action 49*, 53*, 57*; PX LZ 6.5 ; Ping Heppler Fetch; Ball - Snell MTB-X; Bag - Sun Mountain H2NO Classic Bag: Driver - Wilson Staff Persimmon; 3w - Hogan Speed Slot; 5w - Wilson Staff Tour Block; 3 - pw - Staff Dynapower; sw - Ram Tom Watson; putter - bullseye standard or flange.

Kenny B 25,157 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Snowing again. 27º Forecast is snow all night long, then freezing rain in the morning. So far, we've had about a foot of snow with 3 foot drifts. The bad news is I have a very long concrete driveway leading to a 3-car garage. The good news is that I started shoveling it yesterday, and my neighbor came over with his snowblower. Need to do it again tomorrow!! 3 Quote “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to post Share on other sites

WOW and you folks are like us not used to it--- Now we have gotten an abundance of rain to already soaked ground. My back yard around the shop and hitting mat is flooded like when we had hurricanes. It has rained steady all day yesterday and I think we are going to get the storm that you guys are getting now in the form of rain for us around Tuesday. 4 Quote Driver --- Honma G1-X Stock R Flex---- 3W Callaway Steelhead UST Pro Force Gold 65 stiff--- 2 iron 1980 Macgregor VIP Nike R flex-------- Irons 3 thru PW 1980 Macgregor VIP Hogan Apex shafts--- SW Cleveland 588 Sensicore S-400-- Putter Rusty Santa Fe Bulls Eye Fluted shaft-- Bag Old School Hoofer I had in the stash--- Goes along with my raggety persona Link to post Share on other sites
Shapotomous 2,090 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I think rain is in the forecast today rather than the ice if we are lucky.
