sixcat 4,080 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Sixcat is a childhood nickname. I grew up in a tiny town in southwest Virginia called Fries (pronounced Freeze) with a population of ~600~ give or take. The director of the local YMCA felt it was his responsibility to give every young boy with athletic interest a nickname. Given "Sapp" ran the "Y" for more than 50 years, there exists several generations of men he nicknamed. I was a first grader and in my first year of playing organized basketball at the "Y". During a game where "Sapp" was operating the scoreboard, he asked my mother, who was a local bowling legend, who that "cat wearing number 6" was and the rest is history, as they say. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
808nation 1,790 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Aloha! I was born and raised in Hawaii hence the name 808 which is the zip code of Hawaii. Although I may not be Hawaiian by blood, I'd like to think of myself as a local boy where ever I am sharing the spirit of Aloha with others. Been away from home about 7 years now and boy do I miss the local food back home. Gotta get back some day!! 5 Quote WITB: Driver: Sim2 Max w/ Fujikura Motore X F3 shaft FW Wood: F9 wood 14.5* Hybrids: Sim2 Max 3 Hybrid & Vapor Flex 4 hybrid Irons: Z565 - 7 thru PW & ZU85 - 5 thru 6 with Recoil ZT9 F4 shafts Wedges: RTX4 52*, 56*, 60* Putter: Scotty Cameron M2 Newport Ball: Black & Pro V1 Bag: 2018 MyGolfSpy stand Bag & 2021 Greenside Golf stand bag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revkev 25,708 Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I don't know how I missed this but it's a fun thread. I'm enjoying the stories of how and why. Mine is simple, when I decided to go to Seminary my Mom started to call me RevKev and its stuck with me for over 25 years. Even some of my brother Pastors call me by that name. 5 Quote Taylor Made Stealth 10.5 Aldila Ascent Red R flex Ping G410 5, 7, 9 wood Alta 65 R flex Wilson D7 forged 5-GW - Mamiya recoil 460 R flex Edison Wedges 54 and 59 KBS Tour Graphite 80's EVNRoll ER 5 Titleist Pro VIx optic yellow with revkev stamped on them Still on that elusive hunt for a 3 wood that I'm able to hit - I don't know why, I crush the 5 wood and it's really a 4 wood anyway.

TheWahoo 3,507 Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 LOL... I was waiting for that reply!! I thought maybe MDHacker would use it. Remember when we first met, I used my nickname, Priceless. It was given to me by a Pinehurst caddie and it stuck with my friends. It came from that darn credit card commercial and related to my abilities, or lack of them, in a sand bunker.
