aso says:
you spoke too soon. that course was like pound ridge (a little easier but tight with a lot of forced carries). the weather didn't help either. when are you coming to NY. once i figure out how to switch from my new driver swing back to my old iron swing between my drives and irons, it is OVER.

flicky03 says:
are you in korea?

derekjohns1 says:
Nice round - love Sungnam. Def need to get out when you get back. Say hi to your brother for me.

aso says:
What is going on with your game? 98 to sub 80s?

aso says:
Not sure yet. Just come up - we will figure something out. My game is coming around - you are in a lot of trouble.

flicky03 says:
i see a lot of people posting high numbers for old hickory...is that a pretty hard course??? i couldn't golf this past weekend cause it's friggin raining like the amazon over here boooooo...hopefully this weekend!

aso says:
Not yet - but it is tough with the kid. Come up and give me a valid excuse. I think they are closing down Black for the season soon. You just have to leave around midnight one night, come get me, and we will just sit in the car over there and sleep.

creativeseoul says:
How do you like the 909 D2? I been eyeing that club for a while now. I got the F3 a few months back, really love it off the tee. Sucks on the fairway tho.

flicky03 says:
we'll see if it holds up tommorow...the bombsky is back!

aso says:
I knew that course looked nice.

jmk012 says:
what can you say, he's always been a generous man.

jmk012 says:
yessir - Bulle here we come!. Btw - you need to talk to your boy about "channeling his inner Se Ri", thats just some big-time right there

GO_Seri says:
Tri-Mountain's views were great, but conditions/course-wise, it was maybe comparable to...South Riding? Green fees were like $33 though...so cheap out there!

OMG Han, the irons they gave me were a janky mix-match set that didn't even have a PW or a SW. LOL. But they did have the Diablo woods, so I tried those...very solid!

I'm so excited for Bulle! I'm going to channel my inner Se Ri...

derekjohns1 says:
We would have pushed had you parred 18. Such a shame. I'll try throughout the week to get us an earlier time on Saturday.

GO_Seri says:
HAHAH. No sticks, but my parents are taking me to some course called Tri-Mountain tomorrow. I'm gonna rent some clubs and see how things go. I mean, I'm hitting it well, just my putting, as always...

aso says:
Haven't played in a while but I am breaking 90 at PB Dye!

derekjohns1 says:
Raspberry Falls next weekend, say Sunday morning?

Pr3cepts says:
Yes, this site auto do the adjustment. Very good site. Now I can monitor my game a bit.

creativeseoul says:
i know dude. in due time.

flicky03 says:
just joking

flicky03 says:
20 strokes sounds good

derekjohns1 says:
82 wouldn't have held up if I was there (would've demanded 10 strokes).

GO_Seri says:
FRIGGIN' GUY!

flicky03 says:
cool...can you time travel back to 1997 and tell my past self to join the us airforce...thanks merk!!

GO_Seri says:
HAHA. It's cuz you put too much pressure/intimidate us with all your bets when we play.

Scoring was ideal at SR on Sunday. The course was very soft, but not overly wet. Everything I hit on the green either stopped dead in its tracks or spun back a few feet. And you know I rarely do that. Haha.

aso says:
No - I took Friday off and took my dad, brother, uncle and cousin. We got to Bethpage at 5AM. We were the 20th car in line. They were only giving out 28 foursomes for the date. We could have played earlier but wanted two groups fairly close to one another. Ended up teeing off at 12PM after playing a round on the Blue. I do not recommend playing 36 if you are playing the Black. Black was in amazing shape and had the two tier US Open rough (although the rough was cut down). Still impossible to hit more than 100 yards out of the second rough though. Probably the toughest I have ever seen that course play. I was playing pretty well after the first hole.

derekjohns1 says:
I can only partially agree with flicky - too many FWs hit, GIRs, and putts for my taste.

flicky03 says:
how did you play on 8/30??? it hasn't happened yet fg!...nice 78 merk!!

GO_Seri says:
NIIIICE round at Desert Pines, Han-P! Those stats are impressive.

aso says:
No problem. It was still fun.

GO_Seri says:
Solly about the mix-up on the CR score! Btw, I thought you forever vetoed Fairfax National? Haha.

derekjohns1 says:
sorry for the delay ttmr. little man's been acting up today. covered in pureed peas. not good. enjoy your trip!

flicky03 says:
ooooooolllicct!!

flicky03 says:
i'm probably going to be there late thursday, aug 13...wanna get a round in that friday, aug 14?

aso says:
Also likely to come just for this Saturday. Steph has family in Fairfax that she needs to see. Not sure if I can play yet, but if I can get out, it will have to be somewhere close, just for like 5 hours total. Anywhere in Fairfax that is possible. Course doesn't have to be nice. Maybe I can invite my friend Eddie and you can meet him.

aso says:
BTW - Likely going to DC during the 3rd weekend of August. I think that Jon and Dillon will be there too. One of our friend's sons is having their 1st birthday party. Will let you know, but we were thinking of trying to set up an outing on Saturday afternooon. The party is on a Sunday.

aso says:
I really might. It is a 10.5 degree though. The shaft is a rombax 6X07. I am really close to switching my Fubuki out of my Superquad TP and putting it on the 909.

aso says:
Shirley was the first time I tried this new driver I got. I saw a brand new titleist 909 D2 with a real rombax x-stiff and ended up winning it for a pretty decent price. I don't know if it is the shaft or because the face is .5 degrees open, but I lost every ball off the tee and was reteeing #3 out of frustration. Lost 12 balls that round. It was a disaster.

GO_Seri says:
HAHA. FG. Haines is the perfect place for me to up my confidence, after the way I've been playing lately. ;)

aso says:
Thanks - my short game and putting still isn't where it has been in the past, but my irons have been okay.

You had a pretty impressive round - especially the back. Handi keeps on going down...

flicky03 says:
i'm going to break 100 this weekend

flicky03 says:
i pulled a tiger...i hit the ball so well, and just couldn't drain my putts as usual

GO_Seri says:
Umm, the way I've been playing lately, my handi will go up like 3-5 strokes with some more scores. Haha.

Bt-dub, I did go to the range after our round on Sunday for a couple hours. I love how I hit everything beautifully there. Freakin' range pro, but can't carry it over to the course...

aso says:
Thanks - stupid. Those holes are the easiest but got the shanks out of nowhere and started to lose balls. The four putt was dumb too - green has a ridge that is 10 feet and could not hit it hard enough to get on top of the ridge even after two tries. Are you on vacation?

flicky03 says:
i took about 40 driver shots, 40 hybrid shots, 75 iron shots, 40 chip shots, and 30 putts at the range...about to hit up cooks creek tomorrow...i'm feeling a fresh of the DL 88

aso says:
Impressive round yesterday...

derekjohns1 says:
Oh - how's PB Dye?

derekjohns1 says:
Hey - sorry - just saw your post about Saturday. Been gone the last two weekends, so I think we're just going to relax all weekend. Played Bridgestones over the weekend. Money.

hchoi28 says:
thanks, but 87's big fluke that just happens by dumb luck on yearly basis, it sure felt good though!

derekjohns1 says:
Sorry, no card, but 97 is good. And I know - I love playing without you! Rock Creek's an executive...

derekjohns1 says:
Did you let Ben know about your hissy fit over having to play from the blue tees? I also see that that score is conspicuously absent! Seriously, think I'm going to grab a new set within the next month. The Diablos scratched me right where I itch!

aso says:
Have you played Bulle Rock? How is that course? I don't think I am going to Queenstown Harbor this weekend. Change of plans. When are you and Jason coming up?

benonigivens says:
yeah, i've played well the last two times - dude... you are not going to break 100 at Pound Ridge... how about you just give me $100 now and save yourself a few bucks in the future. We're still going 5 to 1 right?

benonigivens says:
Derek told me that you guys were playing today... how did you guys play?

flicky03 says:
friggin bengalerr!!...if you look at your "artwork" really fast, it's like live motion

flicky03 says:
i have a sprained shoulder, but i'm going to have to pull out a 90s round this weekend...the board isn't looking so good for flicky...FG!!!!

benonigivens says:
you play too much golf...

aso says:
Not too bad. The XCON was a one time pull out. I expect big things this weekend also...

aso says:
No new sticks yet. This will be the first weekend. Did a whole makeover. Got fitted for a shaft and changed to a Fubuki on my Superquad. Also changed to an XCON 6 on my 3 wood. We'll see this weekend.

flicky03 says:
i'm temporarily on the DL due to a shoulder injury...but yes, i agree, i must hit the range and work on my chipping

GO_Seri says:
I know...but you know I'm not nearly as a consistent scorer as you. Maybe I should purposely tank the next six rounds so my handi will go up? LOL.

GO_Seri says:
HAH. That is ridic. If I had 45 scores entered my handicap would *not* be as low as it is!

aso says:
Unionvale is sick. On par with Ballyowen. Tallgrass is also sick but much easier. Willow Creek is very similar to Florida courses - pristine with a lot of water. When are you guys coming up? If you come up before the open we will play Unionvale and Pound Ridge. If you come up after the Open, we will play Bethpage and either Tallgrass or Willow Creek.

aso says:
Look at my new image. Yea baby! Got fitted and found out I was 2-3 (closer to 3) degrees flat. I have some long ass arms. Got $400+ trade in for my current clubs and getting a custom set from Titleist.

aso says:
YOU LOVE NY GOLF. I will be free in May. When you come up again, we play the following courses - look them up:

Bethpage Black
Hamlet Willow Creek
Tallgrass
Links at Unionvale
