19th Hole


Reuben, Newcastle Brown Ale on tap, and learning that Jason Day won the PGA Championship. He had a better scoring day on the course than we did.

Finished strong with pars on 17 and 18. Five pars should be good enough for me to break 100. - BUT - I could not overcome my three sevens, a snowman, and a nine. 

Still, I believe my 5 pars mean that I am on the verge of a breakthrough. Really.

But speaking for this golfer, El Niño cannot get here fast enough.

Call hir ... whatever.


Caitlyn's second shot on the par 4 14th. Yes, that is the non-sexist de-gendered "forward" "red" tee in front of and to the right of hir.

13th Tee



In 1932, Jack Fleming described this hole:
"A lakeside hole with wide, sandy beach on water side. Back tee should be used by all, as water carry is very short and close to tee.  Requires three good shots to get on if dogleg is played, but possibly a very long sure approach will get in under par."


You can see the ball in the air on both Roy and Max's tee shots in these pictures.


No - Roy's shot did not clear the marsh. And we did not play from the "back tees".

I am getting in touch with my inner hipster...



.. while we wait on the tee at seven. This is why I get early tee times.

Max hits out of the trap on 6...

Not sure if he knows what he agreed to.
