Haha, sorry.  I had to tease you a little.  I wasn't being sarcastic about the layup for par part though.  It was the right play after the drive ended up a little short.  I don't think I have enough extra plastic to play a round on that course.

I just watched you tee off at the Memorial on hole one.  Low and safe.  :-)  Nice layup for par.  Looks brutally windy out there.

Hey Bro, Vegas was a blast, as always - and it is nice to play consistent =) I didn't realize that today was the monthly at LaMi, I'll be there today, but might not be for the monthly.

ACE!!!

I got my 2nd ace yesterday. It was a straight short shot on hole 6 at El Dorado Park in Long Beach, CA. Threw the dart right at it and it slid in the bottom part of the basket. No chains, no sound. Almost made it all the way through the basket. It was AWESOME!!!

Mental work over

The past few times I have gone to my local course I have gotten stuck behind a group that drives me crazy. I have tried to put them out of my head but every time i seem to just get messed up even seeing they are on the course. I suppose this is just something that i should learn to deal with. Oh well. Just needed to get it off my chest.
