OPY and I finally played our rematch @ Oakmont. We had previously decided to do a best of three if I won the second match...which I was lucky enough to do.
So we did it again. Even after losing two balls OB on the 5th hole (and having to play rocks after), I managed to ding my way to a 2&1. OPY was even kind enough to offer a timed disconnect so I could shop but I wasn't going for it.
His putter let him down on several key holes and he wasn't in top form as he usually plays in the evening (he admitted beer works better then coffee for his game...lol).
OPY, ty so much for your suggestions regarding my reload problems...seems to have done the trick. True gentleman and sportsman and very glad to have him as a friend as with all of you from associating in this Interspecies.
Thank you all!
David
