    We are shutting down 5 greens for 3 weeks and 2 greens for two months for repair work. I am really looking forward to playing Hobble, Bountiful Ridge, Davis Park, Wolf Creek, Wasatch, Mtn Dell, etc.

    Paying dues and playing one course all the time does have a major drawback, I don't play all the other great courses around.
    Not impressed.

      I shot a 78 last Friday. You have to be impressed by that.

        I suspect I'll do better this Friday (only doing the front 9).

            I am down to a 14 and probably next time around it will be a 12.

            An interesting thing which you probably know. As your handi goes up the money leaves your wallet and on it's way back down the money comes back. I don't consider it gambling because it is pretty much a break even proposition in the long run.

              The members can't be to happy about that. Is this the best time of year to do something like that?

                It was snowing there 4 weeks ago, so I'm guessing they couldn't start it much sooner.

                  Mother's Day round of golf.

                  Nothing like 3 putting 18 for an 80. Damn.

                  The 70's still elude me. I will post the e-scorecard when I can figure out an easy way to do so.

                  Damn.

                      That 3 putt was divine intervention.

                        I'm in awe actually. Sunday Golf. Mothers Day Golf. 2 putt for a 79. That there's the holy grail of my dreams.

                          Not happy at all. Sadly it has to be done though. 2 and 10 have been troubled greens ever since I have played there. The soil under the greens isn't up to USGA standards and the drainage was horrible. Apparently too much water is bad. If it doesn't drain underneath it sits and then boils the roots on very hot days.

                          Shows how much I know. I never figured grass could get too much water.

                              I can't tell you how happy I am for you playing as well as you are now vs when we first played. Atta boy.

                              130 is a tough slope rating.

                                Tick... your front 9 38 with two three putts is pretty good golfing.
