  1. The worst is when you buy them in a scramble. I played once where we all missed a 8/9 footer so I mulliganed and missed it again. Makes you want to break clubs!!!! That just brought up some more stories, but I'll save them.
  2. Honestly I hit a provisional thinking it had to be OOB, but where it crossed was still red stakes from the lake. I bend the rules according to who I'm playing with, but if it's up to me I play pretty legit other than I don't play it down. However, I used to play it down I just don't play enough anymore to play it down. Maybe this summer. If I'm with a group of chop-hounds who want to take mulligans, I'll take em' too!!!
  3. It was actually a lateral hazard and I dropped where it crossed even though it was behind the trees. Mark it red, I play it red!!!!!!
  4. I was thinking about joining Kenton County, but I think my friend Dave and I are going to use the American Lung Association books as much as possible.
  5. Only 6 years. From the time she was 14 until she was 20. That's where we met.
  6. Interesting story. I hit the governor's brother in the shoulder on 14's green on a scalded wedge. He's a good guy and he laughed. I was right past the trees, but I was blind to the green. I thought my brother said go ahead, but he didn't. I bladed it low and he stopped it on the green. I made par!!!!!!
  7. I shot 78 last year there from the tips. I pushed one OOB,dropped behind trees, laid up, knocked it 10 feet below the hole for a makable bogey putt. I managed to run it 10 feet past the hole which is a terrible place to be. I of course ran it again 10 feet past the hole. I hit the 10 footer to save triple!!! I played with Deron at PCC when I was about 15 or 16. He played with his cooler more than anything, but I was in Wildcat heaven. There are several that play at PCC that can hit it that far, but I did it when the longest hitter there was on the green with his wife. His drive had fell about 3 or 4 yards short.
  8. The bold are great holes. 10 at Jolly is easy for me because I hit a five iron.
  9. It's not a stretch though is it?
  10. At Pendleton it's number 9 or 10. 9 is 320, but the last 100 yards is straight up hill. You have to carry it 280 for a driver to be worth it. Most lay up, but I don't!!! The green slopes towards you and don't get past the green or the chip is very hard. 10 is over a ridge and if you catch the fairway (or cartpath) just right you can get huge roles off the drive. The green has a "mound" in the back middle that can make for some interesting putts (clowns mouth). At Hickory sticky I like the par 4 where you tee up from the top of the hill. I believe it's 6, but I'm not sure. It's right after the par 3 on the front. It's about 330-340 I believe and it's very drivable, but if you push it at all you'll lose your ball. If you pull it.....same story. They have just enough grass in those areas to make you look forever, but you never seem to get lucky. At Jolly I like 9. It's terribly long. I hit my best drive ever on that hole and followed with a 7 iron that fell about 20 yards short. I didn't realize I hit the drive that far and had I hit a 5 I would've reached it in 2. Laurel Oaks 10 about 420 10 has a lake and a 10 foot fairway right about where my driver lands. I have to hit a great 5 iron then a another longer iron on the approach. It's tough. Flagg Springs I like 18. It dog legs left and I can go over the trees if my driver is working. A lot of people hit the ball long, but I hit it long and high. I don't get any role. I've never seen anyone else cut it off and I've only played with a select few that are capable. Devou The best hole IMO is the 350 yard hole that has a slightly elevated green (12 maybe) that I went up and down on last summer for eagle. My Dad's reaction......That was awesome. I drove the green then hit about a 40 footer after I said, "I'm going to eagle this" then said on the green, "this is cash" before I even hit it.
  11. Were you the coach when my fiance played? She shot a 55 in 3 inch clogs. It was her best round ever!
  12. I'm long not straight. I've drove 9 at Pendleton from the gold tees. However, I've also hit them off the clubhouse!!! I'd have to hit a lot of 5 irons if it's tight, but I tend to play better coming off the tee with an iron.
  13. Believe it or not I've never played it.
  14. The used to be a course close to Sparta called Walnut Hills(or something) but I heard it closed. I liked that course.
  15. I like Fleming County country club. It plays different on the front than it does the back, and most 9 hole courses don't.
  16. There are so many hills at Devou the carts are dangerous. I couldn't imagine walking it, but I've seen people (not old enough to get a cart) walking it.
  17. Houston Oaks, Gibson Bay, Lassing Pointe, and Fox Run are the best I've played. I like Hickory Sticks a lot and the Bull (outside of Lexington) is very good as well. I would like to play Old Silo.
  18. AD's should stand in the corner and clap quietly. This thread is GREAT reading material.
  19. Now the question was asked with Pelle...... What would Kane be doing surrounded by a better supporting cast? That's a HUGE GAME out of Hurrikane and PC got the W.....
  20. It meets Merriam and Webster's. Are you the new authority?
  21. They made Augusta longer because of Tiger. The pins are changed daily at good golf courses, so if you play in a tourament it typically gets harder as the days go by.
