Lol....I only made the bet because the Indians are my 2nd favorite team behind the Reds, so it doesn't really hurt.

I played Old Silo in Mount Sterling, KY on Friday. We played 36. Scrambled the first 18 and played best ball the 2nd time. Threw in a very respectable 82 from the tips. Beautiful course.

We played Houston Oaks in Paris, Ky on Saturday. Without a doubt the fastest greens I've ever played. I struggled to adjust and ended up with an 85.

I don't think I have played Green Valley for about 5 years unless it has been for a scramble. Had enough of that course growing up that I can't stand it anymore.


Played The Quarry yesterday for my 2nd round of the year. The shitty weather and coaching high school baseball limited my time this spring. Shot an 81 yesterday. Knocked 2 in the water on a par 5 on the backside and made a double bogey. The hole with the giant rock, I decided to go for the green off the tee and fanned one (I'm left handed) way to the left OB. Reteed and went for it again (we were playing wolf), knocked it on the back fringe and chipped in for my par, which I thought was going to tie the hole, until my opponent knocked in a birdie from 15 feet.

Played 18 today at Vista Verde(it's cheap). 42 on the front and a 40 on the back. Probably should've shot a 70 but once again I always have one dumb fuck up a hole. Need to get out more consistently, especially on days like today.

Due to a busy schedule, I haven't been out in about a month, and I have a scramble Saturday. #gonnabeugly

I've only played 9 holes this year at Sleepy Hollow in Alliance. Shot a 40 on the front with two double bogeys. So overall I'm happy with that I just need to play more so I can get my wedge game and putting down.

Played in a scramble Sunday at Forest Creason in BG. We were 7 under thru 5 and ended up in a tie for 1st at -15. :( Lost on the 3rd scorecard playoff hole. I was the 3rd man in order of putting and didn't putt until our 11th hole, it was unreal.

Was -3 after 4 holes tonight in my league. Bogeyed #6 after hitting drive OB, then tripled 9 after hitting a tree and going OB on tee. Finished +1. Only had one 2 putt and chipped in on #7. Fucking pissed about the last hole.

Nah not really. My second tee ball was hole high but I short sided myself. Tried to flop it because the green is elevated from where I was at, but I didn't carry it enough onto the green and it spun back off the green. I got unlucky that the original tee ball went straight left after the tree but it wasn't like I topped it or shanked it or anything.

A 77 with 3 Eagles. Yes, that is very different.

Anyone golf in the Cincinnati area? I will be living in Hyde Park in a couple weeks and am looking for some decent courses.

+1 over the last 15 then. Sounds like me. Always 2 or 3 holes screwing me. These bad holes usually keep me in the low 80's though, not 77. So, good for him.

You do realize the eagles were consecutive, right? Only somewhere around 17 or so PGA golfers have had 3 in the same round. No one has had 3 in a row on Tour.

Playing Firestone Farms this coming week for free (get a free round within a week of your birthday there from their website). Should be fun as I like that course a lot. So far this year I've shot a 40 on 9 at Sleepy Hollow and a 81 on 18 at Flying B (44 front which is terrible there, 37 back which is pretty good).
