You've had worse. Isn't it a violation of redneck code to not dig on redneck cuisine?

Its just cheese and mayo on white bread, isn't it? Probably a Christmas dinner staple down there in Hawgerville

I entered the lottery too. Hoping to just win practice round tickets, no interest in ever attending another golf event after going to the Ryder Cup and being able to witness about 2% of the action. There isn't a worse sport in the world to watch live than golf. Practice round is a different story. Chance to actually walk the course without a billion people there, that's much more appealing to me.

Ideal trip..go to the practice round and then head over to Hilton Head for the rest of the week.

Taking a half day today as a birthday gift to myself. Looks a bit rainy but I think I may rent a cart and
spend the afternoon outside fucking around on the golf course, might play two balls. Sounds better than work!

6 am tee time Sunday and then Blackhawks hockey in the afternoon.

44-44-88 at Cantigny in the Golf Week Amateur Tour! Finished 6th out of 60 in my flight, one shot out of the money. Not happy about that part considering I doubled 3 of the last 4 holes, my only doubles all day. Was on pace for a solid 82-85 before that happened which would've put me in contention for first place and the $500 pay out.

Very happy though considering I finished 31st last time out. My goal was top 20 today.

Played for the time this year and of course my Brother wants to play from the blacks at Heritage. The front was atrocious. The back was a little less atrocious. Nice to finally get out only wish it was an easier track.

Managed a 74 on my birthday and put together a 78 yesterday. I don't think I had a birdie either
round. I need to hit the range and figure a few things out. My wedge game from 100 was afwul
yesterday. I kept setting myself up to succeed and I bet I missed 5 greens from 100 yards. Looking
forward to playing next weekend with Hawg, Furious and Chus.

52-55-107 at Big Run yesterday. Need to come to terms with the fact that I can't play two days in a row due to my back. This is the 3rd time I've followed up a great round in the 80s with a round in the 100s the next day. Couldn't swing the club at all. Had 21 fat shots. Missed 11/14 fairways, all either left or fat shot with divets from the driver.


Probably not a good sign when I need to ask the wife to help me put on my socks and shoes the morning after playing golf. I've been sitting on a script for an epidural steroid injection since November, gonna make the call today and get that set up.

Big Run is a very, very tough track. Long and it seems that almost every hole is uphill.

Good front 9 (39), bad back 9 (48) on Saturday. We do a little tournament every March at Stony Creek in Oak Lawn with some friends. Its a shitty course, but its usually open in March and its a good warmup for the season. Had to play it this past weekend due to the horrible winter. I was up 6 shots at one point, and up 3 on the 16th tee, and went bogey, bogey, triple bogey. Ooof.

_________________

yep, Big Run is a tough track, but that's not why I shot a 107. I would've shot that score at any course yesterday.


Big Run doesn't get the pub it should. Probably one of the coolest layouts of any course in northern Illinois. The elevation changes are ridiculous. Some holes you find yourself shooting to a green that's at least 5 stories above the fairway. That 9th hole might be the toughest in Illinois. 600 yard par 5, narrow through the trees and every shot is dramatically uphill. That hole plays at least 700 yards. Throw in the fact that the green is tucked to the right and a par is nearly impossible without a 1 putt. Its too bad the condition of the course isn't as good as it should be. The greens typically run pretty slow. I asked about that in the clubhouse and they said they do that on purpose to keep the pace of play up. Not having a driving range is another big minus. Fairways can be a little scruffy as well. But damn, that layout is amazing.

My scores this year when I play back to back days...

4/25: 85
4/26: 94

5/3: 98 (but played great, just couldn't put)
5/4: had to quit after 15 holes due to back pain

5/7: 43 (9 holes)
5/8: 104

5/10: 97
5/11: 88 (had a 2:00 tee time which helps me since the mornings are really bad for my back)

5/17: 88
5/18: 107


Noticing a pretty alarming trend. This doesn't bode well for this weekend when I was hoping to play 4 rounds in Wisconsin, let alone my trip to Florida next month. Called the doc today, gonna get that steroid injection set up asap.

Haven't decided the specifics, but I would guess Macoutin and Lawsonia for sure. Might also do Tuscumbia. Depends how I'm feeling from day to day. U wanna drive up to Green Lake and meet me for a round at Lawsonia???

Waiting for the time when I can finally say
That this has all been wonderful, but now I'm on my way

Got invited to fill in at a men's league last night. We played the front nine at Shepherds Crook in Zion. It's a
nice course but they have some of the most insane greens I have putted on. Last night was no exception. I
had four 3-putts in 9 holes. If you get on the wrong side or tier of a hole you are just screwed, it was like
putting on concrete. I was just trying to baby the putts close so I could tap in and move on and couldn't
get it within 4 feet of the hole. I missed almost all the 4-5 footers so that is my fault. Shakes and Hawg
know what I am talking about when it comes to those greens. Other than that the course was in nice shape
and I managed to scratch out a 42 on a beautiful evening for golf.

Not bad with 4 3 putts, yes those greens will send you to the funny farm.

yep, those greens are insane, but they roll great. Fastest greens I saw all last year in Chicago area. You know you're in trouble when there's 10 feet of elevation change on the putting green.

_________________

44 in my golf league last night on a night where I struck the ball well enough to shoot 38. Once again done in by my specialties, 3 putt bogeys. Had 4 of them.

Also got totally screwed on one hole. I'm 150 yards to the middle sitting in the first cut. 160 to the back of the green. Pull out my 7 iron which goes between 150-160. Proceed to hit the most pure 7 iron I've ever hit, must've caught a flier cause it disappears over a hill behind the green. Can't find it anywhere. have to take a penalty drop. Find it 10 minutes later on the next hole 30 yards behind the green I was aiming at. Basically hit a 7 iron 175 yards and then it rolled another 15 down a hill.

Weird day cause I had a few shots like that where I hit it perfect and it went 10 yards further than it usually does. Maybe it was the warm air? Or maybe those steroids I'm taking for my back are more than just the anti inflamatory kind



Excited to head to Wisconsin tonight. 8:07 tee time tomorrow at Golfnow, found it for $25 hot deal, every other listing that day is for $72. Following that up with rounds at Lawsonia on the Links course Saturday and the Woodlands course Sunday with my wife and dad who will both shoot north of 120.
