TESTERS WANTED! ×

Hello from Vancouver, Canada


Recommended Posts

I'm not sure I ever actually posted an intro thread. After re-reading this one, I'm not sure I could top it since I've never holed a shot from 142 from under a tree.

 

I holed out from 150 something once. The most awesome part about it was 4 girls from the High School Golf Team were letting me play through. I felt like a rock star going and getting my ball out of the hole. It was part of a round of 67 and was two more years before I shot that again. The funniest thing was I was testing out a new Titleist ball. I was so busy writing down the distances and how the ball performed it was not until I got home that night and totaled my score that I realized I had shot that well. It is amazing what happens when you concentrate on making the best swing possible every shot.

I just read this for the first time, the original post that is. And then came to the last post to see what looks like a dialogue with yourself. Which is just hilarious.

Liked reading you post.   I'm Larry, and while I am much older (68), we do have some things in common.  My wife is 11 years younger than I.  LIkewise, we have no children.  In his wisdom, God knew that I should not be allowed to reproduce.   I also shot a 68 and then I went to the back nine.   While I have a car, I prefer my pickup, I am a hillbilly.   My favorite movie is Night Shift.  Keaton as the Blazeman, was just great.  I am partial to blue as well.   I have a smart phone, unfortunately it is being used by an idiot.  All I know how to do is make and receive calls.   Being a techno illiterate, I'm not on Facebook and I don't tweet.  But I suspect our most common factor is our love of the game of golf.

That's funny because I kept seeing the account Mrs. Manbearpig and thought it was funny that I could find a Mr. Manbearpig.

The great thing about this thread....well one of the great things.....MBP originally posted his intro in 2012- he joined in 2010.  But people were “welcoming him” in 2016-17 😎

And now the thread will continue to live on.
