[Big Shooter]

I have booked 16 spots for this Saturday at King's Forest in Hamilton, 12:21, 12:30, 13:39 & 12:48..

typo!? ;)

[Titleist75]

come on out people.....make yourself at home and grab a tee-off spot. :) It is supposed to be Sunny with a high of only 22 celcius. Quite comfortable to be out and about on the golf course.

[racmbs]

For those that haven't played King's Forest, it's a great track.

I'm looking forward to playing it.....maybe Gerry and I will have to put up a challenge to Swain and Wayland so we can finally take the belt back from them. 3rd times a charm baby.....:rofl:

[Grass Roots Tour]

Currently seeking sponsor :D

[thekathrynorchard]

I'll get back to you guys on this for sure.

Consider me interested. Just depends on when visitors are coming this weekend.

If I go I can drive from downtown as long as you don't mind driving in my beautiful sky blue topaz.

[racmbs]

Currently seeking sponsor :D

Maybe if you are nice to your GF, she will give you an early BDay present. :D

[diavolo23]

I'd be willing to go if I could catch a ride with someone to the course. If I can hitch a ride with someone let me know. I am in Richmond Hill.

[wayland]

If you keep on changing partners, I'm sure you'll find one you can beat us with ...eventually. :D

I'll let you guys know if I can play. I'm already playing on Sunday and I may need to start packing on Sat.

[Heits]

Hey GG:

Consider me in with a friend, so +2.

[Twisted]

i'll join if someone offers a car pool.... I'm at Yonge and 401 :D

[racmbs]

I'll let you guys know if I can play. I'm already playing on Sunday and I may need to start packing on Sat.

Given the amount of strokes we have to give you and Swain this Saturday, I'd be surprised if Gerry and I won. Saturday was close, but your HDCP's kicked in......that and my 2 triples didn't help our team. 39 on the front with 2 of the shortest par putts I've ever missed playing and then I blew up on those 2 damn par 5's. :rofl:

[diavolo23]

Is there anyone from out near my way that is going on Saturday?

[rgk5]

I am supposed to get clearance from the cardiologist on Thursday. I'm in and am a member at King's Forest but will need to share a power camel with someone.

If she nixes it, I'll post/PM to golfingoalie by 2:00 PM EDT on Thursday.

[racmbs]

Is there anyone from out near my way that is going on Saturday?

I'm coming from the Hill, but my car is already full.....

[diavolo23]

BOOOO!!!!! Oh well, maybe next time.

[guitarman]

If I can hook up with a group of mid-high handicappers, I'd like to take advantage of this outing.

[thekathrynorchard]

I wouldn't mind joining in with you guitarman. I'm SERIOUSLY rusty now a days so you'd have to forgive my disgusting inconsistencies.

I'll post midweek after I hear whether or not friends are stopping in for a weekend to visit or not.

Ok. I'll wait to hear from you by Thursday. I'm working on my iconsistencies with lots of range sessions.

Do you mind playing in a group of guys that pee while they play? I'm just teasing you of course.....nice to see you making it out.

If you haven't played the course yet, you will enjoy it. :)

Come on down. I'm ~12. I don't drink/toke/snort but I've been known to pee discreetly in the woods. And trust me, some of these guys are more talk than anything.

Hey John!!!!!

Long time no speak mon ami......glad to see you are coming out.

I wonder if we can convince Craig to come out as well?

[trunckslammer1]

I am in. I am coming from Mississauga (QEW and Dixie Road) Will be willing to give a ride to anyone who wants one.

[landlord]

I wonder if we can convince Craig to come out as well?
Gerry emailed him, from what I understand.

My attitudes are changing. Yesterday at Glen Abbey on the 11th hole I got a sudden bout of cramps and almost crapped my self. If it wasn't for a cart girl that happenned to come by and whisked me off quickly to the 14th where there was facilities I think I'd have been deep in the woods with my pants around my ankles.

BRING IT.....biyooootches. :D

I'm smelling a teeny, tiny skins game brewing.

[owenmxz600]

BRING IT.....biyooootches. :D

I'm smelling a teeny, tiny skins game brewing.

Im smelling about 10 beers on the way down, Lets do a skins thing, we will all be in:)

[Titleist75]

I don't smell anything.....except a good time. I look forward to seeing owenmxz600 drive the par 4 1st, or the 10th green depending on his ball flight:D . I wanna shot at the title, who wants to team up for the number 1 contender's match for a shot at the title down the road? Beuller? Beuller? Good times for all.:cool:

[The Troll]

Gerry, I'm in.....hook me up with the Clinton Boys, I hear Louie is out.

Owen PM'd me to play with them....prolly mad that I picked on him for the yellow pants.

I hope ChiChi doesn't wear his shorts.... :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

[owenmxz600]

Your a good man, and yes Louie is out, has something "Better" to do! haha

[Leftygolfer30]

Woohoo! I just got the green light - count me in Gerry.

Gerry called dibs on the title shot last week and asked me to partner with him.....but as it stands, neither Swain nor Wayland have committed so it doesn't look too positive right now.

[guitarman]

I'm affraid I need to back out. Guests coming on Saturday.

I guess I need to find a group to partner up with. Maybe next time thekathrynorchard.

[thekathrynorchard]

Count me down for next time for sure. I'd love to get out with you. These weekends are getting consumed with people visiting. I'm not even a good host, I don't know what it is ;).

I guess I need to find a group to partner up with. Maybe next time thekathrynorchard.

[golfingoalie]

I guess I need to find a group to partner up with. Maybe next time thekathrynorchard.

I will put you with my brother (Bob) and titleist75 (Eric)...Eric is also a member at King's Forest so he will give you tips on the course and my brother is a lot of fun.

[guitarman]

I doubt that there is anyone in my area of Brantford but if so I have room to offer a ride.

[racmbs]

I'd be willing to go if I could catch a ride with someone to the course. If I can hitch a ride with someone let me know. I am in Richmond Hill.

Why not just take your ride and grab Twisted on your way up? I'd be happy to offer up a ride, but my car is already full.

[diavolo23]

HI Guys,

I won't be able to make it down this weekend. Its too long a drive so I have elected to go with a group to a course close to home.

Thanks anyway. I look forward to a game with the group of you guys when its closer to home. I had fun with the group at Ballantrae.

[Rocknronny]

Why not just take your ride and grab Twisted on your way up? I'd be happy to offer up a ride, but my car is already full.I have room for 2 to ride with me from downtown leaving @ 11:30 as Luckyluk has to work til then. Send me a PM if you need a lift I would be happy to pick you up.

Ronny I will be sure to put you in one of the last groups (12:51 is last) so you have time to get to course and get organized.

[Titleist75]

I will put you with my brother (Bob) and titleist75 (Eric)...Eric is also a member at King's Forest so he will give you tips on the course and my brother is a lot of fun.

ME?!?! TIPS?!?! I thought I only knew where NOT to go on the course because I am ALWAYS there. I have'nt figured out where to go yet, although you tell me where to go all the time golfingoalie....lol:hush:

Just make sure you keep the shirt on this week Gerry (golfingoalie). We don't need another massive crowd of women like we had last Sunday flocking to you. You signing that 85 year old ladies chest was too traumatic for me. I am not sure if I will recover but my grandmother wants your phone number:$ .

[Rocknronny]

Ronny I will be sure to put you in one of the last groups (12:51 is last) so you have time to get to course and get organized.Cool GG I think Dave is just sending you a PM to join us in the last or near last group. Thanks for putting this together GG......:cool:

Gerry, make sure you put ECHO in Scott's foursome! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Titleist75]

Gerry, make sure you put ECHO in Scott's foursome! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
Oh man.....let's not open up that can of worms and get this thread locked too...lol. I had to double check to see if they were both signed up which was not the case. But Echo is right...King's Forest is a big pushover and Scott being a tour pro should have no troubles there.:D One of the easiest tracks in Ontario I hear.:hush: Anyhow, I am definately looking forward to seeing all of you there.
So the foursome I am in will be:
1. Titleist75 (Me)
2. Guitarman
3. Golfingoalies brother Bob.
4. ???? Anybody who wants to join ???

Come on don't be shy. I know one of you wants to be part of the "Super Group" :cool: Our group will be one of the last ones out I believe.

[Leftygolfer30]

I knew there wasn't a chance of that pairing but I couldn't help myself by throwing it out there! :D

Not sure who I'm getting paired with yet but I'll leave that to Gerry. I can get along golfing with just about anyone - except Scott, of course :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[racmbs]

Gerry, make sure you put ECHO in Scott's foursome! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Well, at least I'll be able to teach him how to use Photoshop properly....the 4-1/2 round should be enough time. But if he shows up with a flower glued to his face, I'm running. :D

And as for pairings, you are in my group bud.....I'll show you my Tour Pro driving distance, Tour Pro wedge game and Tour Pro putting show once again....:D Some of the par 4's are driveable there.....I really, really, really wish ECHO was coming as I was looking forward to putting a face to a flower.

Tomorrow we are playing Eagle Ridge, so I'll have no excuses for not being warmed up.

[Grass Roots Tour]

Im gonna have to cancel the sponsor request. I seem to have come down with Michelle / Phil desease. :mad: :mad: :mad:

Tried to play a few holes with the sore wrist after the Great Lakes tour event today at Paris Grand and ...... OUCH! 2 holes and gone home.:mad: Yeah, you bet I was pissed. Better stay off it for at least a week.

[Titleist75]

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

....:D Some of the par 4's are driveable there.....

Scott....we aren't playing from the ladies tees. Sorry to burst your bubble. :rofl:

[Leftygolfer30]

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

But if he shows up with a flower glued to his face, I'm running. :D

Well, that ruins my surprise - I had a nice orchid all picked out for the occasion :rofl:

And as for pairings, you are in my group bud.....

Oh no, Will says you've already screwed my swing up enough - what can I expect to learn "wrong" on Saturday? :rofl: :rofl:

It's ok Will...I made up the same excuse when I was 15, after I fell off the bed claiming to have been "oiling" my baseball glove. Your wrist will get better, and you will be a happy man again. :p :D

Too bad you aren't coming out bro.....been a while since we've tee'd it up.

Oh no, Will says you've already screwed my swing up enough - what can I expect to learn "wrong" on Saturday? :rofl: :rofl:

You are confusing me with Swain.....and if I swung the club like Will, I'd look like a midget wielding a sledge hammer.

[Leftygolfer30]

Scott....we aren't playing from the ladies tees. Sorry to burst your bubble. :rofl:

For us Tour Pro's, they've reversed all the tee blocks this Saturday. :D

[Leftygolfer30]

and if I swung the club like Will, I'd look like a midget wielding a sledge hammer.

You should see him with a real hammer in his hand and his shirt off :eek: - not a pretty sight my friend! :help:

[racmbs]

You should see him with a real hammer in his hand and his shirt off :eek: - not a pretty sight my friend! :help:

I've known Will for a while now.....and truthfully, I'd much rather see Will (no Will, I will not go out with you :p) with his shirt off instead of Swain. If you don't believe me, just ask Dave about the "present" Jeff gave him Sunday morning at Ryder Cup last month. I think that's the first time I've seen someone throw up in their mouth.

[Leftygolfer30]

I think I'll just have to take your word for it!

[The Troll]

Better stay off it for at least a week.

So long as there was a happy ending....

That reminds me, hey Gerry, you playing in the Sundowner tournament July 10th? :p

[golfingoalie]

Would I be able to play with guys similar to my skill level? I just don't want to mess up someone's game b/c I'm not good
lol

I do not know how everybody plays but I would not worry about...other than RACMBS who is a tour pro most of the players are +10 handicappers...except Titleist75 who is closer to a 20.

Again just confirm you will play and I will slot you in.

[The Troll]

....except Titleist75 who is closer to a 20.


Now dat's cold.... :p

Yaya...bag on the 20 handicapper why don't you. Excuse me while I am having tee troubles, approach troubles, short game troubles, & putting troubles. Other than that I am playin' scratch golf. I can walk up to the tee like a "tour player" at least. :D It's just everything after that goes to crap-ola. :rofl:

[racmbs]

Gerry:

What's the best way to get there from out East?

I'm assuming 403 to the QEW/Niagara curtoff....over the Skyway and exit Burlington Street, taking that to Parkdale and follow down?

If not...please let me know as I don't remeber exactly how to get there. At all costs I want to avoid the 407 as it's a bit too expensive.

[rgk5]

Now dat's cold.... :p

BTW:

Since I am just coming off the Injury Reserve List after five weeks, how many shots do I get for an ale? :rofl:

That is one way to get there. Probably the best way too. Although when youare going down Parkdale and get to King Street you will need to turn right onto King St. & then left on Cochrane (Stop lights) and take that all the way down to the course which is a t the very end of Cochrane. :rofl:

[golfingoalie]

Reminder to all...there is no driving range at the Forest, there is a chipping green and a putting green but no range.

Sounds like we are close to the same handicap..
I've printed out the Kings Forest tips from the following thread: http://www.torontogolfnuts.com/showthread.php?t=17370

I plan to take these tips to the range tonight and visualize each hole as I try to make each recommended shot. I don't know if this is going to help me Saturday but it can't hurt.

It's all good Guitarman....I'll try to answer all your questions, and give course advise if you would like. Just keep it reasonably in the fairway and you'll be ok. As long as you don't get caught up in the mentality of trying to hit the approach shot of your life you will be ok. I'ts fine to chip onto the green with your 3rd shot for the par 4's. I am acutally swallowing a lot of pride and chipping on with my 4th & 5th shots lately...lol. Although Gerry's (GG) constant ribbing and insults hurt and I have to go home and have a good cry every time I tee itup with him.;)

[Grass Roots Tour]

How many spots are open now??

[racmbs]

How many spots are open now??

I think 2 bro.....

If you want in, better speak up. I can juggle around my foursome to put my little cousin with another group so you can join swain and I.....OR, if Terry would rather join another group, we can do that too.

Anyway we slice it, you can jump into our group as Ethan is a decent player and won't mind playing in another group.

[guitarman]

I think 2 bro.....

OR, if Terry would rather join another group, we can do that too.



I hope you don't mean me. I'm liking the idea of playing in a group with a guy named Boberino and another named Big Vito Soprano.

I hope you don't mean me. I'm liking the idea of playing in a group with a guy named Boberino and another named Big Vito Soprano.

No sir, there are 2 women playing named Terry. :D

You and Leftygolfer30 who is already in my group.

[golf101]

I wanna play against the tour pro.

[Grass Roots Tour]

Yeah ... put me down.

The wrist is feeling good right now and Im heading to the range soon to confirm.

It's the right wrist thats gagging so I hit nice big slices when its beat. :(

Hey, at least that elinates the left side of the course. :D


So you still only gots one "tour pro" going. Good thing I already got his autograph. :cool:

If GRT joins the party, you can watch 2 Tour Pro's tee it up.

Can certainly hold the spot for you...

And I don't suck, but Swain does and he'll be in the foursome to fulfill your needs if you've been lacking some attention from the Ms's. :rofl:

Hey. Then it should be Terri.:D
Ok then, Terri. :D

Oh come now, it was just friendly ribbing...absolutely no disrespect meant towards you Lindsay. :)

But if he plays like poo, we can at least blame it on him getting lucky the night before. :p :D

[landlord]

That is one way to get there. Probably the best way too. Although when you are going down Parkdale and get to King Street you will need to turn right onto King St. & then left on Cochrane (Stop lights) and take that all the way down to the course which is at the very end of Cochrane. :rofl:
You can also continue on Parkdale past King St and carry on up to Hixon, which curves to the right and takes you over to Cochrane.

[golfingoalie]

If possible can somebody print out the tee times and 4somes for me and bring them to the course.

Thanks.

[Grass Roots Tour]

Thanks for the invite, Gerry.

The course is very solid and plays quite tough when you havent seen it before or if you hit it sideways all day like I did.

I'd like to host an event at Paris Grand in about a month so I hope all of you can / will attend. I've got some work to do on the dates but I'll get it going soon.

It was a pleasure to meet more TGNers. Hopefully more will come out next time.

[Leftygolfer30]

I too would like to add my thanks to Gerry for putting everything together.

This was yet another TGN related event where I got to meet a bunch more golf nuts and enjoy a perfect day of golf - unfortunately, my golf game didn't live up to the ideal weather.

Thanks to my playing partners, Heits, Lloyd and gnarlyrabbit for putting up with my inconsistant play! :D

[guitarman]

Thanks for the invite. Had alot of fun today. I'd like to give this course another try.

[landlord]

Thanks to Gerry for most of the organizing, to Grass Roots Tour for poring over the hard-to-read scorecards, and to everybody just for showing up.

As if the intangible rewards were not enough, Mr. Tour handed me a fistful of dollars for getting a birdie on a hole that nobody else did. For a guy who shot 99 (93 with ESC) and threatened nobody but a few neighbourhood children and dogs all day, that came as a pleasant surprise.

I have to tell ya, King's Forest has whupped my a$$ every time.

[Titleist75]

It was good to see the TGN'ers again. Good times Guitarman, you play well for only playing for just over a year, very well. Sorry I couldn't stick around after but I was called away. Nice to see those that I got a chance to and to those I didn't get to meet I hope to see you at future events/outings. Cheers.:rofl:

[drksi99]

Thank you for the invite out...I had a great time

Just wanted to also say thank you to my team who watched me struggle through the day and still were behind me till the end....really appreciated that...and thanks to Bob K. for the tips...i'll put those to use for sure

looking forward to meeting more members from TGN

"braved" is right :$ ... interesting that you recognize that that was a little nerve racking for me - I was definitely going outside of my comfort zone. But everyone I met was nice and I had a fun round with my foursome. I played pretty well too :) Nice course too with all the trees and water even if it was a little brown.

Thanks again for taking the time to organize it all Gerry.

A little brown? My feet are killing me.

Good to meet you and no need to be shy....TGN'ers are only scary if the course runs out of beer which they almost did today for the first time.

Thanks Gerry, hope our showing up on time didn't interupt your first round. :rofl:

GerryGerry a big thanks for putting this little event together. Dave,Dan ,Luc and I had a great time playing the course for the frist time. We finished in under 5 hrs so the pace was good for a Saturday. Congrats to Dan who got his frist par ever. Thanks again for the invite Gerry see you all next time.

Yeah, yesterday felt more like a quick meet/greet kinda day....very strange. I think it was more due to us having been in the car for almost an hour and a half driving up, most of it being stuck in traffic which was frustrating.

As for playing a round with me, you are always welcome to join me in a game Terry. In fact, next time we tee it up at a TGN event, you and I will play the round together and we can choot da chit. :D

A little brown? My feet are killing me.

It was tough on a lot of us out there bro, feel your pain! :( I was punished more times than I'd like to remember for hitting too much club on some holes that left me running out of fairway and almost always stuck behind a tree in the rough. I've played King's Forest many times and I've got to say that that is the driest I've ever seen it.

My biggest complaint about yesterday was the bunkers and how inconsistent they were....understood one's idea is to try and avoid them, but they should be at least filled with sand that doesn't penalize you by not being able to at least get out. That was some of the heaviest sand I've played in.....a lot worse than Ballantrae Golf Club and as much as I like playing their, think the sand is 2nd worst to any course.

"braved" is right :$ ... interesting that you recognize that that was a little nerve racking for me - I was definitely going outside of my comfort zone. But everyone I met was nice and I had a fun round with my foursome. I played pretty well too :) Nice course too with all the trees and water even if it was a little brown.

Thanks again for taking the time to organize it all Gerry.

GR

And a big thank you to you as well GnarlyRabbit, for braving it yesterday and stepping out of your comfort zone and into something that most female golfers out their today just wouldn't do especially on their own! :). Everyone I've come to meet on TGN has been the nicest of people and in fact, some of become some of my best friends. We will have plenty more outings like this and as Terry said above, next time we will try and make it on a day where we can all sit down for a bit before the round to talk for a bit and then hopefully afterwards all sit down and grab a bite to eat and talk about our rounds after.

I'd like to host an event at Paris Grand in about a month so I hope all of you can / will attend. I've got some work to do on the dates but I'll get it going soon.

I'd be up for that Will, but could I suggest trying to make this one an early morning round, seeing as it's a good trek for some of us coming from out East? That way, we could all relax after the round and maybe grab some lunch.....I'm on vacation as of the 5th if July until the 16th, but won't be available from the 5th until at least the 9th as I'm moving into my new house on the 7th.

It was great playing with you yesterday Will....we both did not play to our usual games but the company was great and you and I shared some good laughs yesterday. I walked away hearing one of the funniest things I've heard in a while and of course, it HAD to come out of Swain's mouth: Hungry Bum

:rofl: :rofl:

Thanks GG for a great event.
I like the course layout.
And hope to join other events from TGNs.

Thanks Gerry again for taking the time to organise the event. Sorry I had to leave but it was due to me promising Q that I will get him back to Mississauga in time for a wedding. Depending on the date, I will be looking forward to Paris Grand. Even Though I am from the West, maybe someone could organise one in the East or North for the benefit of those from from that way.
My playing partners for the day was great company and I have no problem playing with anyone of them again.
By the way who was the ***@@@& who tied me on the second hole and deprived me of a skin?
To GR, I was originally slotted to play with you but again due to Q, I offered to play in the first group. I look forward to meeting and maybe playing with you the next time. If my daughter is in town, I will get her to play too.

That would be my buddy Matt who plays on the University of Western Golf team....kid hits it a mile and flat out can shoot some stick.

Just be thankful it wasn't Swain....he played one of the BEST rounds I've ever seen him shoot since I've known him. He was -3 after 4 holes and was sure he was on a tear to shoot a sub-par round.....

[The Troll]

I've played King's Forest many times and I've got to say that that is the driest I've ever seen it.



It wasn't dry in my group.... :eeek:

Funny thing is the muni course at the other end of the city is watered like its the rain forest.

All that new turf down at KF and it is all pretty much dead.

[The Bun]

Thanks Gerry for the effort, it was alot of fun despite the high scores. Its a tough track when you're not sure where you're going and as Scott said, the ball constantly running through the fairway. I'd definatly take another shot at it though. Thanks again.:)

-Bun-

[guitarman]

Yeah, yesterday felt more like a quick meet/greet kinda day....very strange. I think it was more due to us having been in the car for almost an hour and a half driving up, most of it being stuck in traffic which was frustrating.

As for playing a round with me, you are always welcome to join me in a game Terry. In fact, next time we tee it up at a TGN event, you and I will play the round together and we can choot da chit. :D


:rofl: :rofl:

I will be there for the next TGN event and will look forward to that.

It was good to see the TGN'ers again. Good times Guitarman, you play well for only playing for just over a year, very well. Sorry I couldn't stick around after but I was called away. Nice to see those that I got a chance to and to those I didn't get to meet I hope to see you at future events/outings. Cheers.:rofl:

No problem. Maybe next time we'll get to hang around a bit longer. Anyway I had a lot of fun playing in our group and definitley am going to return to this track to give it another go. Its supposed to rain most of this week, so if it does maybe I'll come back out on the weekend when it isn't so dry.

[Heits]

I too would like to add my thanks to Gerry for putting everything together.

This was yet another TGN related event where I got to meet a bunch more golf nuts and enjoy a perfect day of golf - unfortunately, my golf game didn't live up to the ideal weather.

Thanks to my playing partners, Heits, Lloyd and gnarlyrabbit for putting up with my inconsistant play! :D

Ditto this sentiment... I had a great day as well. Lost my share of golf balls, but the day more than made up for it.

Gnarlyrabbit, good to see you out! You played well and were not out of place by any means!

Until the next outing!

[davevandyk]

Thanks again Gerry, it was a ton of fun yesterday. Not to mention that are buddy Dan made his first ever par yesterday, it being only his 5th round ever!! Actually had about a 15 footer for birdie on hole 4 i believe, congrats again to Dan!!

Good food and Hooters are mutually exclusive. Owen, you really have me curious as to what kind of food they serve at restaurants in Clinton... :eek:

I was. I followed a truck exactly like yours the wrong way around the lake and ended up at the end of the link before I realized it wasnt you guys. :help: :( Seeing as I don't know where Hooters is in Hamilton I was f*cked.

Sorry guys.... next time for sure.

[The Troll]

You can PM me the good pics please. :D

rgk5 sent me the great pics he took on the day however neither he nor I are that tech savvy....if I have sometime to fool around with them I might give it a shot.

Someone more used to posting pics might like to give it a go.

The pics of me behind the ropes with our guest celebrities turned out great. :D

Don't want to burst the poor guys bubble, but at the rate Owen goes after those beers, it's no wonder she sooo wanted him. She's studying to be a teacher, all that money in tips could be the difference of whether or not she eats next semester. :rofl:

She did make a fair bit of money on us hahaha, maybe she can buy herself a pair... What troll was getting at!

I told Monique during my morning round to make sure she followed the Clinton gang around...I made sure early in afternoon round which group you guys were...I was 2 holes late...she said "oh I know which group you are talking about" :D

Steve I was talking about pics from the Hooters trip, not of the golf outing ;)

Fortunately, the golf world will be spared that image. :)
