Whistling Straits take 5

Tomorrow will be my 5th trip to play the Irish Course at Whistling Straits since last spring. We have our typical group of 8, with a couple of new additions this year. Unfortunately, with the Grinder's impending move of death, he will be forced into skipping this year.

I'll be attempting to better my 98 from September. It all comes down to not taking a 12 on the last hole! That thing has kicked my ass every single time.

Weather forecast looks a touch iffy but I think we'll be ok.

Retro and I are heading out to play 9 at noon today as another tune up (god knows he needs it! and yes, I know he'll read that, I'm trying to make him cry). The Titleist whore bought another Titleist club yesterday at Dick's, a 3 wood. Seems like every time I go to buy some more golf balls, he gets another club. Personally, he couldn't hit it straight with a baseball bat, not sure how these clubs help him. :)
(you crying yet, Retro?)

Have a great time - I'll be at Yahara which is pretty similar I think. LOL

Wish I was going with you - NEXT TIME!!!

GL with the weather also

I was told by Jim M that I will never have to buy golf balls again because I know where they are hiding on "my" fairway!!

Forgot to mention - I pulled a funny on balderdash last night.

It was raining sideways and he was in the clubhouse. I was outside drinking Guinness watching the rain and had somebody yell to hin that his windows on his car were open.

He comes out with a rain coat and umbrella and starts to his car. I take pity and tell him it was a joke - he gets all mad!! LOL

If I would have known THAT I would have let him go!
