We should get out sometime.

31/m/ottawa.

I tried to play nine tonight, but there were so many people out for twilight golf, I had to jump ahead and start on the 5th or I'd never get finished before dark. Friggin Elvis.:facepalm

 

[Bleedsblue&white]

You in Collingwood?

 

[Leafyblue]

Yup.

 

[worm]

Delaet in 3rd at the Canadian Open.

 

[Bleedsblue&white]

Yup.

Are you having some ribs at least?
I'm not an Elvis fan per se, but I ended up in Collingwood one year during the festival for soccer, checked out the happenings and fell in love with the memphis smokers lol.
Not this year, but I have hit the festival a few times now, just for the ribs.
And the Elvii of course. Everywhere you look, there's an Elvis.

 

[Leafyblue]

Yeah, the ribfest at another time of the year is pretty awesome. I caught a bit of Elvis this afternoon downtown and the guy was brilliant. I'm guessing he sleeps with Priscilla tonight. :smilewinkgrin:

 

[Bleedsblue&white]

I love how everywhere you turn there's an Elvis from a different era, from the earliest to the fattest, they're all there.

93 today with NINE 3-putts.

What a bad putter I am.

 

[Leafyblue]

Shot 57 on the front and quit. Stupid ****ing game.:beatdeadhorse5:

 

[Leafyblue]

Long weekend. Anybody play?

On another note: Tiger pulls out of Bridgestone with back injury. That can't be good.

89 and 88 this weekend


in somewhat related news......
cannot stand getting paired with slow players

I tried to play Friday at 330pm. Took an hour to play 3 holes (4, 3, 4 pars).

Had to bail on what was sure to be a 6 hour round. Got a raincheck at least.

 

[worm]

Ouch.

My Friday round took 3 hours for the front and 1 hour and a bit for the back.

Was going to try to get a raincheck but it turned out okay.

Not shockingly I went 49 40....slow play is the worst.

 

[Leafyblue]

I played after the big thunderstorm we had Sunday afternoon. We got out a hour late due to thunder, but everyone went home and the course was pretty vacant. It didn't help my game any though. Shot 53 on the front and needed a 5 on the last hole to break 100. Of course I put my second shot in the lake. :facepalm

Anybody have a favourite Golf Ball? I'm liking the Srixon Z Star at the moment.

 

[corksens]

I'm a hero and like my proV1's (but only get them on sale or when I'm in the states).

I was sick of spending that much $$$ on golf balls though so I got a 24 pack of Callaway hex controls at costco for $31.99. Terrific ball.
