  Well done Jim, and HPUREY, too.

  White screen of death in our blitz game. Play soon.

  Thanks all, for the congrats.   No worries on the Blitz round, figured it was some sort of game error. 

  YankeeJim:

  LOL. TY's all very much. HPurey and I had a bit of a contest and I must say he beat me to TL by 10 minutes! He was pounding on BPB and I was alternating between BPB and Oakmont, each watching the other on the friends list. A fun ride.   

  I have to seriously credit the 97 Nikes and the 96 Versa for the turnaround. That combination just plain works for me.  And now I get to putt on real greens. :-)

  10 minutes!?  Man it felt like .01 seconds,   that .01 seems to be stuck in my brain, lol.

  Was a very fun day and race all together.  I agree with Jim in giving credit to the Versa and Nike irons for sure.

  Congrats to both of you gents. I remember the marathon when you were cranking for Legend HP. 2 great additions to the top of the ranks. YJ you go for that one million posts. Every one reads them so we have a few to look forward to.

  Not to pile on here, but yes, very well done all around - YJ and H.

  And I noted that Jim crowned his Legend stay with a victory in the WGT-wide weekly 9-hole tourney.

  Nicely challenged.
