No grenade story but back when I was younger and played in pickup games I had a player pull a knife out of his sock on me once. Glad my buddy was there w his glock….

Another guy was smoking on the field and tried to burn my brother as he ran by….

/doesn’t play pickup anymore….

Is that an example of “Weapons of Mass Destruction”??

Speaking of $2 bills, considering it’s increasingly difficult to buy things that are under $1, wouldn’t it make sense for government to issue more $2 bills?

There is a strip club near the Lake of the Ozarks which gives out $2 bills as change for your 20-50-100. The girls just won’t work for singles anymore.

Winning. Winner for all time.

Seconded.

And speaking of golf swag, there were Titleist reps out there. For playing in the tourney, we got $200 worth of whatever we wanted. They had putters, clubs, clothes, shoes, etc. I got 2 FJ shirts, 2 gloves, and a new 60* wedge as everything was way discounted.

It may not have been anything exotic, may have just been an older modeled hybrid/rescue that I didn’t recognize.

No prob.
We were right next to each other in the rough off the tee box on a long par-5. He hit that sucker and I remember asking him about it. It rifled out, rolled about 220 and he had 80yds left. He put it to 8′ or so and missed his birdie putt.
Meanwhile I used a 4-iron, the club face turned over and my ball only went about 160yds. I had to hit an 8 or 9-iron into the wind and it went just long. Chipped it up, made par, but his better second shot gave him the birdie opp.

party…ooo mp68′s are some pretty clubs.

and the hybrid/rough thing kinda has me thinking lately about ditching any irons above a 4. can replace 5w/3i/4i with a 18 and 22 and add an extra wedge. that 200ish yard shot out of rough with a hybrid is such a lifesaver and the more forgiveness at that distance the better. cool isnight…much appreciated.

apparently trader joes made a great trade for a bunch of $2 bills.

Or they just have someone who takes the name Two-Buck Chuck seriously.

We talked about that. Remember I got those MP-59′s a month or so ago. He was playing MP 68s and told me he had been playing Mizunos since he was 14. We were both hitting Taylor Made woods/driver and he had some cool looking hybrid/rescue thing he used when he had a bad lie in the rough. I can’t remember what it was (beers) but I need one for when our Bermuda rough is up. That club got down after it and it still knuckle balled out, but it traveled a lot further than when I tried the same with a 4-iron.

The folks in Morgantown would like some of them blow-uppy thangs to go with their burning couches. It’ll be a big deal when they’re celebrating Geno’s Heisman.

He was probably 310 off the tee, easy, but clearly wasn’t happy with his swing as he didn’t hit a whole lot of fairways. The noticeable difference was a) how deliberate he was with every swing and b) how pure he hit all of his irons. His deal yesterday was that par was never out of the question for him. Even when he was in trouble off the tee box, he’d get back to having an 8′ (or less) par putt and he drained every single one.

Distance wise, I hit my driver 280-300 so I wouldn’t be too far back of him if we were playing the same tees. But on a couple holes, where he was hitting a 9 iron in, I was hitting a gap wedge because of where my tees were and where our tee shots ended up. I had 2 kick-in birdies setup by two different 110 yd shots and I missed two birdie putts from 10′. The pro wasn’t sticking his scoring irons and missed several 10-12′ foot birdie putts.
