[Warp daddy]

Nice , an ace at 84 that's awesome !!

Shot 76 from the white tees with the boys and lost $1 with 1 birdie and a double.
Opponents both shot their age or lower and my partner also shot in the 80s.
Should be a fun finish in the US Open at Torrey Pines today.

Jon Rahm wins the US Open on Father’s Day at Torrey Pines where he had proposed to his wife.
It was his first Father’s Day as a father.
Attaboy Jon Rahm. Way to play the game.

Rahm was on fire , felt sorry for Louie

 

[tirolski]

I don’t feel too sorry for Louie. He played well, Just pulled the tee ball too much on 16.
He completed a 2nd place finish slam of all 4 majors.
Has a farm next to his folks place in South Africa and owns a winery.
The only others to complete the runner up slam are Craig Wood (born in Lake Placid & lost em all in extra holes), Jack Nicklaus, Arnie, Tom Watson, Greg Norman, Phil and DJ.
It’s an elite group.

Played terrible today in match today in a mini small group outing . Shot a ugh 44/43 /87 ( several doubles ) a few pars BUT the ONly saving grace was an Eagle on 18 , drive was a foot off the cup on a 254 yd par 4

 

[tirolski]

Played Yahnundasis in New Hartford yesterday for the first time.
Great course in great shape and the folks there were also fun.
Shot 48-48 which sucks.
Couldn’t read the twisty tilted greens and was clueless as for spots to hit it. Must’ve had 40 putts.
Shot 10 strokes better back home today.
Now if I can shoot another 10 strokes better tomorrow I could be a contender.

 

[Warp daddy]

Yahnundasis is in my original home town, great course...pristine !

 

[tirolski]

There was a tournament going on before we teed off.
Yahnundasis vs. Teugega.
They brought us delicious tomato pie appetizers and I got invited for their steak dinner too.
Passed on the dinner but the ride back home through the countryside was also beautiful.

 

[Warp daddy]

Glad u got a chance to play it , Teugega on Lake Delta is also a really fine course in the area . If you haven't already , play Seven Oaks on the Colgate U campus for another treat.

Mmmm Utica Tomato Pie !! LOVE IT AS A HOMEBOY !!!
MY BIL always brings up several boxes when the extended family are all here for a week in the summer and Christmas as well as Thanksgiving .m
