@dinobarnesberlin true. This particular situation is pretty relaxed. If the course needs money for maintenance or improvements the local guys, mostly farmers, just basically pitch in to get it done. 9-hole course with undulating greens about the size of a trampoline…makes for some challenging (and stressful) shots!

[dinobarnesberlin]

@SKT sounds like a good system there. Love it when the locals take care of their own.

[dinobarnesberlin]

Is it a par three course or regulation?

[SKT]

@dinobarnesberlin it’s actually regulation with one par 5…which can feel like playing in a cow pasture. Lots of fun though

It was cool to see two first time tour winners at the Zurich classic yesterday.
Happy for them but would have loved to see Shane and Rory win another one..

Playing my first ever golf tournament today… this is the weather we’re looking at ‍

@Brock

[Brock]

Yep! Haha

[Nocturama]

How well did it go @Brock ? Or rather, how wet did it go?

[Brock]

@Nocturama it went surprisingly well. And surprisingly dry. They pushed the shot gun start off 2 hours and let the worst of it pass. We only had rain in the first two holes and the last hole.
The course was saturated and played cart path only.. we ended up tying for first gross in our flight (stableford format) and outright first Net. So we took the Net money and our buddies took the gross money.

Awesome - congrats.
I have a lesson on Saturday which needs to fix my my driver, as I’m playing a 7000yd course on Sunday! 🫣

On a golf trip in St George, UT. Got a chance to play Black Desert today, and it was fantastic. Highly recommend if you ever get the chance.

Did anyone watch JJ drain that 60 footer on 18 to win the US Open and be the only player to shoot under par?
What a fantastic way to win your first major!

[SKT]

@Brock one of the most exciting finishes I’ve ever seen! Love the US Open…it’s fun to see the pros look like mortals on the course for a change. Spaun really earned it too, happy for him.

[Brodie]

@Brock We did, indeed.

We flew into Las Vegas, so on the way in we played Conestoga, and on the way out we played Wolf Creek...both in Mesquite, NV.

Then in St George, we also played Ledges, Copper Rock, Coral Canyon, and Sand Hollow.

It was a great golf destination, as we all were hoping for.

Wild final round, crazy finish. Bummed Adam Scott didn’t get it done.

@guiltyparty that is too funny.
