Did You Ever Notice
Pudge usually wins a side or two when he shows up. Deacon has no place to hold a beer because he has an inhaler in one hand and a cigarette in the other. Tractorman in a little slump has decided to take his frustration out on the White Tee Boys wanting them kicked to the B Group. Hulslander scans the parking lot from the deck to make sure Commish is nowhere in sight before he goes to his car. Commish is way too mellow after taking a year off. Mad Dog has no advantage on the rock hard fairways because his flicks float to the ground vs TJ who gets 50 yards of roll. Penguin's drives are never effected by the wind because they never get that high. Birdie is paying Bear in real dollars not mythicals anymore. Fireman had to learn the rules of lacrosse so he could watch his daughter's games. Blue Tees playing the White Tees is collecting lots of skin money. Billy D went from a hooker to a fader. Mic Lights aren't as popular as they use to be. Hilow never misses a fairway or make a putt his team doesn't need. The low flood spots on the course are all being filled in or mounded. Roy Boys are on the endangered species list. Skoog has improved his play and is now competitive. Dougie is the best two man you could have on your team, very steady that's why Mad Dog makes sure Bear never gets him. 40 can't make up his mind what beer he likes. Skrocki has become a B man. Triple N has a phobia about grounding his driver. Only one person drinks Bud Light draft. There are only two players who can hit the "Feather Duster Driver" where most players hit their 5 iron, Birdie and his mentor Commish. Otis use to be the only one who could reach in two certain par 5s before this new crop of "white tee bombers". Pistol Pete is afraid to talk on the deck for fear of a X. Mini will actually play this year even if Daddy isn't. Sandy is again practicing with his new shoulder and expects to be a player in less than a month. Rama has drifted away from the Pot Game again. Jay Esh only plays on Sunday. Hagen is a mid week regular. Chimney is usually putting his team to victory out of the C player position. Lenny is a more popular Mid Week Commissioner than the Cheez. Chuckie unlike Mad Dog can actually take phone calls, collect green fees and pass out cart keys all at the same time.

There was never such a fuckn mess like what took place on Saturday.
ReplyDeleteThere Is A Madness To Our Group:
That 'MADNESS' would have prevented this...
1. Late entry messes with entire field
2. No handicap by 2 new players
3. 6 handicapper shoots 91
4. Stolen golf cart
5. One group doesn't know format
6. 'Phily's' taken
Yes, we would like and encourage golfers to join us for a leisurely game on Sat/Sun, but let's not forget our group of assholes to the detriment of having anyone join. There is another course in Keene, or even better, another 18 holes close by for those not wanting to abide by our rules. I can remember a simple vetting process before we took any 'walkon'.
And the Commish going "mellow" was a part of Saturday's fiasco.
NO MORE MR NICE GUY!!!
Any white tee players who can drive the par 4s or hit pars 5s in two should be on the blue tees, sunday match the four and five pics on the second team from the whites beat all five players on the first team, maybe they should be captains
ReplyDeleteWe try to even the teams by keeping the all player scores respectable.
ReplyDeleteIt's been proven the 'white' players struggle from the blue tees. I would much rather have 'white' players shoot 77/82 than 86/91. Wouldn't you rather play with or against players who are putting for pars/birdies on most holes. You know yourself how frustrating it is to be teamed with a player who cant reach the green in regulation and is always putting for bogey. From your point of view, the 69/70 players should play from the 'golds' to make it fair. Lets give this some time to play out. One weekend is not enough sample to make a determination of where these borderline players should tee it up...but we do know they struggle from the 'blues'
I like this idea!: "From your point of view, the 69/70 players should play from the 'golds' to make it fair."
ReplyDeleteHow many 69's should a player shoot before he is penalized for playing good golf to be put back to the golds to struggle for a 79?
ReplyDeleteThen you would complain your 'GOLD' captain was unfair.
Right now we only have one legitimate gold player--MINI....let's address the issue when we have enough rounds to make an intelligent decision.
I will play the blues,if the Bear, Chimney, and Commish think I should.
ReplyDeleteOkay, so far the only person making sense of this whole mess is the Commish. Let this thing play out. Over time if the white tee players continue their fine play they will one day be good "B" players. If not then it will be proven that they are in deed playing the tee suitable to their game. Either way the "pot game" is intended to be a good time. More important is the camradery for all involved.
ReplyDeleteHOUSE: You are where you need to be. Keep that shit up and you will be back to playing with Frenchy.
ReplyDeleteFIREMAN: You just got a "free" X card. First one ever to be awarded.
I was just telling the Bear...wouldn't it be nice if all 48 players shot 79 or under and we played in 3 hours. That would be the ultimate group.
Wow if I knew I could stir up so much shit I would have posted a long time ago. But I still feel the same way.

You keep this shit up we'll start calling you Mac.

The level of complaints is in direct proportion to the level of your play.
