Good morning Spies on a sunny, fall MIchigan morning. Golfing this afternoon, and then again tomorrow late morning as it is looking to be the last weekend with temperatures at least in the 70's. Hoping to get to play at least through mid November provided the white flakes stay away.

Hope that your day is the best it can be, no matter what is in your plans, and if you are golfing that both the fairways and greens in regulation be plentiful, and the number of putts low.

You will love this--- A guy showed up at the Shootout this AM in a 70 small block Vette. Man it was just cool enough and you could smell the VP racing fuel running a tad rich but smelling and sounding good

The way Europe is playing, I don’t think different captains picks was gonna matter. When the world number 1 can’t earn any points and loses In embarrassing fashion, Keegan Bradley wasn’t going to be the difference maker.

Stu, I agree. Personally, I think it comes down to which guys are part of the click. I am sure Keegan and Lucas don't play the kiss up game. In my opinion, that's one of the main reasons the US does not play better. They are not taking it serious.

It's been a busy day, but a fun one. We went out and bought my wife a data cable and new computer chair. I got two new pairs of shoes and we went to lunch. Came home after all the running around to pick up my sister-in-law and went out to get new cell phones. Now it's all about getting things straight and getting used to it. It's also going to be fun since I have to train auto correct for words like Titleist, Forged Tec X, Takomo, and any other golf words I use. I just trained a few there.

I do not know for sure but Keegan and Lucas are both scrappers and Lucas really wanted it bad. And to this day I can not see how Scottie is still #1 under pressure he folds like a cheap beach chair. I feel Lucas would have been fired up like Max Homa and sometimes it makes a big difference. Keegan as proved by past performances can get fired up too. Sometimes 3 or more players getting ultimately can fire up a whole team and a coach getting fired up can fire up the whole team. Just look at Crenshaw that year. Zach looks to me like he does not want to be there period. The only real spark plugs we have on our team IMHO is Cantley and Homa.

I don’t disagree with any of that. There’s always more than 12 people worthy of taking. Right now the only captain pick I’m disappointed in is Burns. He’s been a non factor. JT proved he was worth bringing. Scheffler has really been a head scratcher. And glad to see Koepka having great start.

Good morning spies!

Been up for about 5 hours but was too engrossed with the sliver of hope for the US Team to post earlier. At least there's been more excitement today after a very disappointing weekend so far. 

Regardless of what happens I still absolutely love the Ryder Cup and it's hard to deny that it's one of the most entertaining events in golf.

The rest of this beautiful Sunday is going to be filled with football and a solo round of golf this afternoon while the fiancée is out of town.

Hope everyone has a great rest of their day!

Good morning All, 

Been a quiet, lazy morning here. The last 6 weeks of work on my golf game have culminated in the Final Review for the Titleist Irons that was posted last night. So golf wise, I’m taking the day and quite possibly the next few days off. 
 

Have a great Sunday!

I tend to agree with you.  The European team prepares much different than the US team. I wish the US team would follow their lead. We came out flat the first day which led to an enormous lead.  I at least was happy to see the efforts from Scheffler, Thomas, Koepka, Cantlay, etc. today.  At least they made it a match.

A former plus handicapper who must settle for mid 70s to mid 80 scores today.  After taking 10 years off due to back issues, my driver length has decreased by 40 yards on average.  I look forward to any training aids, shaft improvements, club enhancements to get back part of what was lost.

@sirchunksalot you weekday working guys need a good relaxing, hang out Sunday, so enjoy!

I'll probably take it pretty easy today other than the chair and going to get groceries. I really need to do some yard work but I think it might wait another couple of days. I need to check and see if I've got enough gas, I've been meaning to but haven't.

Bottom of the pot spies ☕.  Decided to check out a furniture consignment place near Phoenix and that turned out to be a bust.  So what do you to in a situation like this?  Well, you head to the Irish Wolfhound for lunch and more coffee.

Good Sunday Day Spies, 

I missed the morning call, early Ranger duties today ended up getting washed out.  Rain was steady this morning, even heavy at times. Got to course & there were 5 golfers playing in the downpour at 8am, loved it!  No need for ranger today & sadly no golf, rained all day.  Good thing, wife going away with sisters for a couple of days. Tried to clean my home office while the wife is gone. Watch a bit of the USA Team getting waxed by Europeans & now watching LPGA and doing some catch up work and enjoying a nice cup of Espresso! 

Enjoy your Sunday Everyone! Hit'em Straight⛳

Good Morning everyone!!  My internal clock is off.  We usually play Saturday and Sunday, but my wife and I played on Friday with another couple and then we played on Saturday at the other course in town... managed a pair of 83's which is not bad given the extra PT exercises I've been doing daily.  Dang I'm sore!!  Today we are playing a course I haven't played in more than a year; a par 66 so I hope I can do better, but not counting on it.

Play well today everyone; days are getting colder... and shorter!!

This is the correct answer… Please feel free to  go to the head of the class.
