Just trying to keep it at the top - I am picking fuzzy to make the top three this year. He has had a nice long break (poker addiction), and now it is his time to break the home course jinx!!!!

I have been practicing alot more lately but nowhere near as much as I should. My game is starting to come around again so i hope to make a good showing at the event.

Look for Keith Vest to step up to ADV!! The kids got game and should do well and finish up in the cash.

Dustin Galamor has continuously improved his game in recent months. He has taken somewhat of a short break the last couple of weeks . I will put him in the top 3 in INT.

Robert Walters has the putting skills of any of todays pros. I do not personally know anyone that can putt better then him. If he sticks to his teebird and keeps his head together, he is my hands down favorite in the Rec division.

Look for Matt Schion to come out of the woodworks (literally) screaming stuff like "Fire in the Hole", " Go Long A" and making shooting noises. He will shoot some of the worst golf ever seen by anyone. Then he will run as fast as he can home with his eye twitching and his hands trimbling like a crack fein who just saw some other crack head drop a crumb. He will then drop off the face of the earth only to be found years later in some shack in the woods with nothing but Schlotsky's sandwiches, the PC game CounterStrike , and a laptop with a broadband connection.

All i can say is Dammmmm!!!! Bring some extra plastic this weekend. I went out this afternoon and actually played the new look PI for the forst time since the invasion of the water. I lost 3 discs and didnt finish my round. 2 were my fault totally, Just knew i could get it over the water on #14, NOT! and the wind took my Viking's drive on #4 right dead center of the #5 fairway that is knee deep. Come on water receede. If anyone goes diving. I have a Blue Viking with my Name and # in the middle of the pond on #5 fairway and a Blue tye-dyed swirl pattern Tee-Bird and a Blue Beast near the Tree in the middle of the lake on #14. I hit the dammed tree with both my up-shots. Both of the discs IN #14 have my Name and # on them also. I also got over to hole #16 and saw i was missing my rolling Firebird, the one that goes FAARRRR!!!! i turned around and found it on the #10 fairway thank the golf gods i didnt loose that one too.

Dustin- I will probably be there for a round before doubles Friday.

Gimp- Chick-Fil-A is still an option I beleive. Let me know.

I assume the chips/cards question was just bump bait :)

I have seen a couple of comments concerning pics of the new water hazards on the course but don't seem to be able to find them. Is it that I'm stoopid or do they exist?

Tomwin

I went out to take them on Sunday, but forgot the digital camera at my house. The water has gone down quite a bit though, Fuzzy and I played 2 rounds and really didn't have much of a problem at all, except on 14 and we were both trying to throw into the water from the tee since it is such a long way down there.

For those players coming into town and looking for something to do Saturday night. The Beaumont Drillers, our local National Indoor Football League team (NIFL) has thier season opener at the Beaumont Civic Center. Tickets for general admision are $12. The opener is usually the bigggest crowd of the year, this is the second year, so the energy level should be great for the crowd. Just a thought
