I agree

The only part of his plan that he did not consider would be if the maintenance building had a camera or not. It was next level thinking with everything else, how in the hell do you leave that out?

What a douche!

In a fairway trap behind a tree about 110 yards away from the green. Opened up the stance and tried to hit a 30 yard slice with a pitching wedge.
Hit an accidental shank, and it was perfect about 7 ft from the pin.

A few comments…

5somes: pre shot routines do not need to begin after a ball has come to rest on the green, it can start as soon as another player in your group addresses their ball in the fairway/rough. That way Player B is ready to hit once the ball lands.

Singles: Nothing aggravates me more than a single on a golf course trying to blow past people on a weekend. If I ever went play alone, I would never ask to play through a group, I would play multiple balls and stay out of sight of the group ahead of me so they did not feel like they were getting pushed.

Slow Pace: The pace of play at some courses in the area will always be slow because of certain layouts. For example Copper Mill… most people are waiting for green to clear on Holes 1,4,7,9,14,16,18. Other courses in the area that have plenty of reachable par 5’s and drivable par 4’s will run into the same issue.

Pebble beach when they play the AT&T Pro Am vs when it’s played as a US Open is very different.

Same with Torrey Pines

Shrink the fairways and let the rough grow and it will cause scores to rise

Posting on here because I noticed there was a “high school baseball” thread during the season. Some of you may be dads of kids currently on a high school team.

There is a couple of high quality arms in the BR/LC area that are scheduled to throw multiple innings at a prep baseball showcase in the next few days.

Both of these pitchers started and threw multiple innings and over 60+ pitches on Saturday for their summer organization (which is a very highly thought of summer organization that many send their kids to)

I guess chalk it up to bad communication by both the summer organization and the prep showcase? Or what am I kidding… why communicate?? They got their money already!!

Get the Tommy John Doctors ready.

I’ve seen it taught to go in standing up like the runner from Sam Houston did when a 1st baseman is straddling the bag.
However Dutchtown’s 1st baseman was not straddling the bag which makes what the runner did absolute BS.

Nobody would go for that. Especially schools that play in tougher districts. Why would you want to reward a team more who is in a district with softer teams.

Has to be the “flop shot” at the 2012 Memorial. Announcers talking about how difficult it was.

In reality- the lie was not terrible and the wind was back into his face.

Now I’m not saying I would jar it like he did, but in terms of that shot being “difficult” no! I would say a 0-3 handicap could get that ball up and down pretty easily.

Scheduling difficult competition is better for your team, however no brainwashed travel ball parent these days is going to understand 17-15 against quality competition is better than 22-6 against 1A, B, and C schools

You risk your job scheduling difficult these days with the mentality of the parents. Teams could manipulate their schedules to get 20+ wins every year regardless of the talent on their team.

Getting let go from Dunham after a successful year and homie hopping all over Louisiana the past 10 years speaks volumes also.
