I'll definitely be there... just scheduled half the day off on the 19th.

I'm getting better too. Saturday I went to the driving range with my grandfather and hit about 110 balls. Mostly with the 5 iron but I did use the driver a little bit... until I broke it. I was scared to death when I saw the head of the driver flopping in the air, I thought my Grandpa was going to beat me to death with the wedge that he had in his hand :lol:

Last night SnG and I played 9 holes at a golf course right down the road from where we live. That was a good time and I had a couple nice shots. I do have to point out that SnG lost a lot more balls than I did. He must've lost 5-8 of 'em... it was hilarious :rofl:

That reminds me to get that day off now. I am definitely there!

The head of the driver busted off? Reminds me when I was 22 and still using my clubs I had since I was 14. My 5 Iron head flew off at a driving range and then that weekend my 7 iron head flew off and then later off the tee my 3 iron went swimming with the fishes on hole 16 into the water at Thunder Hills.

Needless to say I bought new clubs later that week.

The head of the driver didn't just come off.... The shaft broke about 4 or 5 inches above the head and it all went flying. All I had left in my hands was a half of a driver. It looked pretty expensive too. I thought I was dead meat :lol:

Most of the bigger name club makers will fix or replace broken clubs.

Remind me not to let SIMV borrow any of my clubs :biggrin:

That also reminds me I have a "special" club in my golf bag, my dad's old 2 iron. My dad wrapped his club around a tree and busted it up pretty good. So he shorted the club to be about 3 foot long that me and my brothers used when we were young. But my dad always kept it in the bag just in case he was under a tree and he would use it as a utility club.

It's in my bag now and it works great on severe hills and to punch balls out from under the trees. I'll let SnG & SIMV use it for their army golf adventures in the trees. :p

List of people who are in:
exhawg (probably going to have a foursome because I told too many people about it)
ScarletInMyVeins
Piney
scarletandgrey
jwinslow
Brammer98
iambrutus (probably can't make it)
FKAGobucks877 (out)

Let me know if I forgot anyone or if anyone on the list can't make it. Right now it looks like we will need 3 tee times.

It isn't too late to sign up if anyone is still interested.

I heard of a female golfer wanting to join a foresome. She may a little absent minded about wearing underware, however I'm sure she can putt with the best of them. Besides watching her bend over to mark and/or tee up her ball could be worth the cost of the green fees. Any takers?
