Someone needs a 'Broke 80' badge.  Go request one over on this thread.

What a round!  You like circles and squares I see.

I broke 80 long before I joined on MSG So I have been patiently waiting till I break 70 before requesting the badge (shot 70 once a few years ago...so close!). Very much hoping it is this year. I would would much prefer not to look at squares  but can't make e'm all....

I like squares too. Usually so much I get multiple squares per hole on my scorecard!

I agree! It makes the borders on the scorecard look so much more bold. Really brings out the beauty of the square shape.

I often like two to three squares within the same box….

Put some circles in the squares and it will be like playing checkers. Ahhh two games in one.  What a concept.

UGH!!!!  We had a ton of rain last night and more on the forecast today through Sunday.  I'm hoping it lets up and I can still get my Saturday round in.  I'll play in the slop if I have to for a chance at a custom driver!

Might have a career round but not excel in the criteria that is being used to pick a winner.

I'm still holding out for most 3-putts or water hazards.

It is raining here today too

But Saturday it is supposed to be clear and I am playing first tee, I hope to pick up and continue from the 40 I shot on the front 9 the last time I played.

I always tell my wife I like to play in the rain since not many other people will be there. Plus it makes you swing a little slower so I find the club face more often. Just make sure you have really good rain gloves.

Now you have force me to play CaddyShack while am working.. SHAME!!!

hmmm I only play in the rain, if I just happen to be caught in it and I have to complete the round for competition. that's why I only have rain gloves and an umbrella . Once you start getting that other rain gear stuff you have committed in playing in crappy weather.

But you have a new putter, that eliminates 3-putts..

With 2 Kids I get so few open days to go play that the weather doesn't really stop me when I want to go. I have rain pants, Jacket and gloves. With my body staying dry and no need to keep the clubs dry due to the gloves it really isn't that bad. I have had to stop and hunker down in the middle of a fairway before just Holding onto my bag and umbrella till the worst pasted, but once it was gone it was all good. The key is knowing which courses in your area can handle the downpour without flooding. Multiple times I have been 1 of maybe 5 people on an entire course (Once due to rain, once due to severe wind). Its kinda nice to have a course all to yourself sometimes. 

That said, CA looks to have started another drought so not sure how many rainy days I'll actually encounter...

Hey, for a shot at a new driver, I'll gladly throw in a few 3-putts.  On purpose of course...

When I lived in SF, I remember when I first moved there was a drought and then it rained for like 3 months, then it was the mudslides and then back to the drought. But I felt most course out there handle down rain well when it did rain. 
Like Florida courses, they get a daily down pour around 2-3pm.. so they are used to getting that rain.

Those kids always in the way. lol!!

Just entered my first round since getting back home to Montana.  I think I entered it correctly? I did not locate the "spring invitational" option.

If you didn't tag it as part of the spring invitational,  it won't count for this period.

Oh well, bummer .  Just my luck I ace the test but forgot to put my name on it.  @GolfSpy_THVcan this be corrected?

[juspoole]

Hoping the criteria is most mediocre round for a lefty - should have that one in the bag....

[DriverBreaker]

Just called the course I'm scheduled to play tomorrow... they said they are 50/50 on whether or not they will be open (we've had downpours here the past few days).  Here's to hoping!

[EEZurg]

But tomorrow is May.  Doesn't the first "round" end April 30? ( I know you want to play...but for the contest)
