Is That Really You?


PlaidJacket

Recommended Posts

Just for the fun of it....

 

Most of us have a avatar, photo, or some type of icon to identify ourselves here in the forum. For those of us that use a photo; is that really you? Obviously, I'm not Sam Sneed. But still,  I like ole Sam. He was a sweet swinger of the club and a classy dapper kind of guy. I like the old retro image of golf that Sam and others of his era now represent.

 

So, if you use a photo as your Forum identity tell us a little bit about yourself or why you chose the photo... or icon/avatar.

 

I'm off to the course. Have a nice weekend hackers!

Mine is self evident - I am a Lutheran Pastor at a church with a Day School in St Pete, Florida. I'm also the chaplain for the Deaconesses in our church body.

 

So the Avatar makes sense. :)

Mine is my son one of the first times he played some holes with me. I need to update it to one that I took of him on the Gonzales golf course last week. Or one of my daughter. She was knocking the heck out of it the other day.

Mine is of a random golf hole in Hawaii. I will change to a different hole every few months. I am a little nervous about putting photos of myself out on the internet for anyone to see...

I just changed. This is the cover to one of my favorite albums (Scottish band, to boot), and the title is just perfect for my forum handle. I just need to find a better version of the picture with higher contrast.

Mine is definitely of a hat I own and wear on the course frequently. It rotates with about 6 others I've got in the queue. I love that old-school script! I may change things up a bit myself as far as the pic goes, but for now it represents me to a tee I think.

Not me in the flesh...lol. But.... me in spirit. I'm a rebel, and I march to the beat of my own drum. I don't follow anything or anyone except what I want to.... which most of the time is NOT the norm...lol.  I've been a die hard Raiders fan for 50 years. Al Davis (RIP) and the Raiders exemplify the way I think.

LOL I knew it was on the 18th at TPC "Myrtle Beach" it is right around the corner from me--- The reason I put Myrtle Beach in quotation marks is it ain't in Myrtle but actually in Murrells Inlet. That is sorta a sore point with us guys on the South Strand--- Most of us South Stranders do not want anything to do with "Dirty Myrtle" as we call it---

When I first started playing, I had my mom knit me a couple headcovers. She did Grover first then I got the bright idea for Beaker. His head shape is perfect and she made it well enough that I still use it on my 3 wood.

 

I used to do Waldo for my avatars but started switching everything over to Beaker once I got the headcover. Unlike Beaker, I don't have orange hair or big eyes though. Similar expressions though

 

 

Shoutout to MBP for pimping Beaker out.

I don't know... If I ever met you, I'd be very disillusioned if you didn't look like Beaker...Heh! Along that same line with my old-school, fuddy-duddy ways, you could possibly picture me as one of those sarcastic old guys up in the balcony...I'm not near that old tho...

Affirmative. No good reason for the pic, except like GJ302 I'm not wild about having my mug plastered across the webz.

 

My ShotScope review is me in a nutshell. Help, I'm in a nutshell. How did I get into this nutshell? Look at the size of this bloody great big nutshell. What sort of nut has a shell like this? This is crazy.
