Sunday the 18th of November - Looking for a game

[Chieflongtee]

Scott,

I believe Craig is playing in Mike's group on Sunday, so the spot is yours my good man.

Are long John's necessary in this weather?

I guess jogging pants and an undershirt and turtle neck could do. Tuque and gloves for sure

[rezadue]

Well, I think I may drop by Sports Experts and pick up a pair of long Johns. I could always use them for skiing too.

[Andy4Par]

I'm trying to lay the groundwork for getting out Sunday.

I'll keep an eye on this thread.

Hoolio can get his flask back...

Does this involve a lot of whineing, pleading, begging and good quality kneepads?

Been there done that.

[BogeyGolf]

Hi Rez,

That is right, I am in Steve's group on Sunday.

Craiger

[leftylucas]

So Scott, Reza, Luc and Andy follow Craiger, Steve, Mike and Sakuraba, should be fun

[rezadue]

Well, mission accomplished, I bought a pair of underarmour base layers and should be warm enough for tomorrow. I hope that it is not as windy as today.

Scott, Luc, and Andy, you guys want to have a skins game? Something cheap but fun. Like 25 cents per person per hole?

[NoBack]

Luc
we had a forth in our group already, Peter is with me and Craig and mike

BUT I just got word Pops wants to play now, so with Sakuraba that makes 10

I just booked another tee time
we now have 1040 1050 (our original one) and you guys have 1110 right?

I guess that means we have room for 2 more

[GarthM]

You guys are killing me. Here I was at about 9 am thinking "hmmm, I should grab that fourth spot so I can get my twoonies back from Mikey". Then saw it was full and said "oh well, got stuff to do anyways". Now you go and take another tee time...sigh.

Got room for me Steve?

Garth

[Andy4Par]

I'm game for a skins game Rez. We could play two man team skins for fun.

Pfft, you're just looking for someone to shoulder your impending debt.

[rezadue]

Kewl. Let's discuss in the morning.

Garth

yep
we'll see you there garth - seems like alot of that going around lately (trying to empty mpare's change purse)

still room for one more

[Fallys0820]

Skins sounds good to me. I guess I'm going to have to bring the good clubs. I was going to bring my 2nd set since it'll be so cold. Or would winning money feel sweeter with the old bag?

We're 11:10 tomorrow morning right Rez?

[Sakuraba]

I have only finally convinced my beloved wife that I should go tomorrow. Involved: 6 trips to potty with my 2 year old daughter, only 2 were fruitful. Also, christmas shopping trip (got a stop sign ticket on my way home: not so bad, generated some sympathy points) made supper for the 4 of us AND washed up afterwards. Rented 2 movies. Just sat through the kids movie. Now its put the kids to bed...

I am going to do a final internet check tomorrow morning. I've never been to Greensmere, but am looking forward to it. I'll be there at 10:30 in case I've misread the tee times. I am trying to get hoolio there for what appears to be the last spot. He'll post if he can come.

I am off the board till my final check aroung 9am. I think this is the last game of the season (for me anyway)

[Sakuraba]

this just in: Hoolio is too delicate to golf in cool weather. I guess he has something in common with Jarred after all!

I've spent the last two days firmly planted on the couch with an Xbox controller and a box of cookies, doing absolutely nothing productive. Your above post makes me feel even better about that decision.

[rezadue]

You got it Scott. See you there.

Hey Hoolie,

Didn't Sak beat you the last time you guys played? Where is your dignity man? Time to step up and get it back.

Hey Hoolie,

Dignity was re-acquired from the infidel at Outaouais in a 4&2 smack-down, which put our match play record at something like 67-1 in my favour.

[leftylucas]

OUCH, Sakubara has to learn to play without the beer bottle in his when swinging!!

[rezadue]

Ok then. Wouldn't you want to open one last can of whoop ass before the end of the season?

[jeffc]

so who took all the $?

I went and whacked it around Falcon Ridge. The course is in pretty good shape considering the time of year. They said they are open until the snow falls. Lots of cars in the parking lot (I am pretty sure Pinshark was there).

[NoBack]

Pops took 3 cleaners and I beleive mike and garth each had 2 with peter and craig with one each. Yeah I was shut out, although I did win my bet with mpare but gave his money to craig (fastest $5 to go through my hands). LOL

BTW ..... it was a GREAT day for golf

thanks for the game guys

luc - I hope you got home alright - we saw the tow truck load up your car at the turn!!

[Fallys0820]

Thanks for the round today Reza, Luc and Andy. Was a pretty fun day all things considered. The weather was remarkably great.

Hopefully everything went well with the car Luc.

Fally
aka Scott

[leftylucas]

Hey Scott, yes it was fun for sure, my car is already being repaired in Almonte, all considered I got pretty lucky.

[rezadue]

Yeah guys, I also had a lot of fun. And it was nice to meet and play with Andy.
Hopefully there are a couple of more weeks of "fun" left before the dreaded white stuff flies.

[jeffc]

I am off all next week. Let's keep our fingers crossed that there will still be a few courses open!

[Big Johnny69]

Hopefully we'll have some good weather. If you're up for a game Jeff lmk, I could possibly be persuaded for a round.

[leftylucas]

Hey Reza, let's keep an eye out for a good day, Friday looks good, yesterday was great but just not the same without the muses of Sakubara and the death defying leap of faith standing near the tee box when he is on a par 3. The closest we came to it was when Andy dribbled a provisional off the tee, just not the same, that adrenaline rush when the ball screams inches from your body does a lot to keep you warm.

As many of you may have seen my disabled car in the parking lot with the left front wheel broken. Upon further inspection a golf ball was found near the break, all too coincidentaly it was the same brand and model used by Sakubara, hummm, things are coming together now, I carefully placed the ball in a plastic bag and had it analysed and sure enough there was beer residue on the ball. Was this really an accident or was Sak warming up off the parking lot as I pulled in??? No prints could be raised from the ball as it was licked clean. I guess we will never solve that mystery at Greensmere.

[rezadue]

Luc,

I can't do Friday, but Saturday looks equally impressive. Lets keep that one on the radar screen.
