Congrats to DenisO

[goley]

Word has it that you had your personal best today!!
Nice job fella.

[DenisO]

I get my own thread? Awww yea!

Thanks! Felt really good shooting so low. I got a bit too excited going into 17 and only +1, and ended up bogeying the last two but I can't complain with a round like that.
TGN is going down in Belleville this weekend, I'm pumped!

[XTOUR]

So am I partner...No pressure on me now!!!

[Paulio]

Wow, that is awesome play. You may not remember, but I think I played with you a few years back and you were just starting. It was one of Big Johnny's events at Copperdale. That is some great improvment! Congrats, fella!

[DenisO]

I do remember playing in that Copperdale tournament yea! It was fun back then, since a lot of us were hackers and I wanted to get some competition under my belt. Lots of friendly folks there, which made it easier and more fun

[XTOUR]

Didnt you win that event?

[DenisO]

No... I tied for first

Didnt you win that event?

[XTOUR]

Resurrecting this thread! Shot a +1 71 at Hautes Plaines today for an updated personal best! /fist pump
For some reason going into 18 I was thinking I just needed to par to be +2 (and I did par it), and mentioned to the usual crowd what I shot. High fives all around.

However, after actually calculating my score it turns out it was actually +1.
I was +3 after 4 holes, but made a birdie on 7 for +2 on the front 9. I then bogeyed 13, but birdied 15 and 16 for a -1 on the back.

I also had closest to the pin on #9 in tonight's men's night to beat out Thom and get into the shootout (I need to brag, he normally whoops me on the course).

Overall, a very good night

[nokids]

Hey nice job! Whats the differential on that? -1?

[DenisO]

Not at Hautes Plaines, its 1.7 apparently. I still find Hautes Plaines to be tougher than most other courses I've played, and I play it the most. Damn rating = 80% course length calculations

SHOW ME THE MONEY! REPEAT AFTER ME.....SHOW ME THE MONEY! and DenisO, if you are not in the skin game next time we play...you will be playing as a single! Or you could ask to join the ladies!

[DenisO]

I have been playing the skin games! Granted, I'm not actually paying and Yves has been paying for me (and taking all my winnings, if any). Nevertheless, I'm still in

Up yours Panikorn he's my partner tomorrow.

[DenisO]

Well I think my season peak has come to an end. I can already feel the colder weather and shorter days taking me out of my 'prime' lol.
The stats for this year were awesome though, never expected to get anywhere near I did. So much room for improvement though, I can't wait to play 12 months out of the year in Cali

Handicap progression:

[Break68]

Holy crap 2.5 from 10.2 in one season. Very impressive.

[nokids]

Good work Denis! Very well done my friend.

[Ruskie]

Nicely done Denis! Pablo is getting a little antsy, now that you're officially better than him

[DenisO]

I had to work so hard! He was always one step ahead of me, birdie count, handicap, distance. That bugger, I knew I'd get him eventually (although probably only briefly, I'm sure he'll pass me again soon

Nicely done Denis! Pablo is getting a little antsy, now that you're officially better than him

[Wilster]

Nice one Denis , and it goes to show what a lot of practice , dedication and effort will get you.
Well done on your achievements.

[Wilster]

ps. i guess Pablo did pretty darn good too.

[DenisO]

I'd say so, shooting even par at Hunt ain't easy

ps. i guess Pablo did pretty darn good too.
