Hey I was impressed that you were still giving a lot of effort even on the fourth golf round. Many wussies would have just given up.

RAH tips hat. (a golf cap of course)

I like golf, i just don't like what it does to my blood pressure and to my mental state of mind.

free is free, beggars can't be choosers.....sure i would have prefered just baseball....

but making even one nice shot for par, can put a smile on your face

Do any of you golf pretenders have a sanctioned handicap? (beside the painfully obvious ones)

RAH
For the record my handicap index is currently 9.6

Yes, it does take into account the difficulty of the courses that you play. They take your best 10 scores out of your last 20 to figure it out. So it's more of a measurement of your potential. So technically if I play a course that is considered average diffuculty, I should score around 81. But since most of the courses I play are considered harder I usually shoot closer to 85.

No, that would be Berz. He did beat me over the 4 rounds.

Hehe.

You mean anyone that doesn't play the courses you play is a n008 golfer. When Berz beat you on your own courses he was still a n008 since he had all the luck.

Naw, he beat me fair and square.
My only bad luck was that my driver shattered on the second hole of the last day, but that's no excuse.
I didn't play my best. Hopefully I'll be better when we have the inevitable rematch.

Sigh. Rah if you are going to attempt to be 8 times champion you must lose this attitude of yours. Of course you didn't lose fair and square.

The last day at Kemper Lakes was reasonably a neutral course, since I've only played out there a couple of times. He just eeked me out that day.

What are you, rah? A blade man? Cavities? A mate of mine, plays off 8, just bought himself a set of Ben Hogan blades. Had them imported, I think. I battle around with my Pings.

I had a set of ping knockoffs, but never really felt comfortable with them addressing the ball. Some people swear by them and some swear at them.

I know use the King Cobra oversided off-set irons. They're more cavity type.

I just bought the new King Cobra 427 Driver. 9% loft.
It makes my old oversized driver look like a 7 wood.

Funny that. They helped me enormously. Or I think they did, which is most of the battle in golf.

I'm glad you waited till Greg Norman sold out of them.

Oh jeez, that'll bring out the hairy-chest beaters. Who's going to turn up and boast an 8 degree loft?
