    Hi All,

    Well - 7 years here this month. YES that is "SEVEN" !!  Any of the old crowd still around ??

    When I think back to when this all started, and I wasnt here right at the very start  - we only had some CTTH 's available and then we got our first 9 holes and then our first course.  WOW 18 holes - that was really something !!

    Well, we've come a long way from then, and it all looks great. Am still enjoying it immensely. I dont have millions of $$$$$ to spend on clubs or balls so am just battling around trying to improve my ranking. I only play 18 hole rounds, but Tour Master very soon. 

    Love Chambers Bay - my best so far "65" - if only I could putt  lolol.

    All the best from "Down Under" -  bad luck Jason, one very gutsy effort.

    Cheers

    Doug (alias Dorkfeatures)

    Congrats Doug!

    Your memory and your equipment have stories to tell - when I joined, they had the 2010 Raptures *dreams*.

    Like to hear that the thrill's still there - a 65 on CHB is well below my best (69). Alas, to become a TM, you should not play the qualifier from the tips - see this thread for a link to regular tees.

    Hit it straight!

    I'll be five in November .. if I live that long.

    As for seven years, congratulations, that's way longer than many marriages.

    Ps. And yes, Jason Day rocks!

    I must say that I remember you from my own start-off (6 yrs) because your name bulls-eyed my funny bone. I thought it was so direct while I hoped it was a 'white lie'. Way to go ! You should conjure up a few choice memories and share them with us, Doug. And yes, those Raptures were it !

    Congratulations, "newbie." :)    I just hit 8 years this month.

    Yeah, those early days were lean and pretty lame. Amazing to compare the game now to what it was then.
