This week's TGA event takes us to the Ireland links course at Ile de Montreal. The foursome this day are: Alice, Crack, Dag and Gazebo.
A 6am depart time from Walmart see's Alice and Crack waiting on Gazebo, and then receiving an email on Alices BB that he just got up (slacker!)
Alice and Crack arrive to hit some balls from the practice area and are joined no to long afterwards by Dag and Gazebo (finally getting himself out of bed)
The decision is made to play this round from the blue tee's, the fescue looking short and should be manageable (just ask Gazebo!), weather forecast was
for rain and thunderstorms, but it turns out to only be overcast, with some sunny breaks. I'm wondering if this doppler weather radar technology even works, I'd like to see a weather forcast that simply advises
you to "stick your head outside"...and that's my rant against the weather people.
Highlights, lowlights and general nonsense:
- the first hole and it looks like it's going to be a long day already! Posted scores: 2 doubles, a triple and a quad!
- Alice is driving the ball uncommonly well and straight down the pipe, everyone is wondering where his swing has come from, oh hang on...there it is...by the 7th hole he's back to his usual
swing and ball flight
- for the most part Alice and Crack manage to stay on or close to the fairway, dag and gazebo seem to like the challenge of playing from the hills, Dag to the left and Gazebo to the right.
- The general consensus is if Gazebo could ever staighten his drives, the most he'd have would be a chip onto most greens......
- What the hell has gotten into Crack's game? No slices, hooks, thinned, shanked or chunked shots until the second to last hole.....and then a quality chunk and I still can't putt!!!! ...(get in the hole ball, don't you want to go home ball! Suck my white ass ball!)- Only 1 birdie on the day, by Dag, made on #17, it's enough to win the day's birdie competition
- Alice is miffed that I pay Dag his $2 for his birdie, when I still owe Alice $4 from last week, oh well, suck it up....
- Overall some pretty good scores posted and some quality shots made, check out OOBGOLF for the stats
That's it, Crack signing off...until next time....
