  1. a Rainy Sunday Round

    I just got back from a Rainy Sunday round with Wilster, Zoic and LMS. I'm happy to report that noone melted and, if I can speak for the others, a good time was had by all in spite of the rain :thumbsup The highlight for me, aside from meeting the guys for the first time, was the back to back...

  4. A Fun Game To Play

    :-) I thought I would post this as we did this last night for our weekly Mens Night. Something different and it was actually quite fun. Everyone will use only 3 clubs plus a putter.
