  James...Do you just need attention??...........every thread you are knocking things.  The only ever math you entered up was knocked for six by Alosso (unless you got back to him)........You simply need to learn the game or stop making an idiot of yourself......

  Maybe you broke it by playing that many consecutive rounds on 1 course.

  Hi Rich,

  Or it could be caused by a snack eaten while enjoying a few adult beverages.  Back in the dark ages while I was stationed in Hawaii, I can remember going to local bars where they would serve snacks of raw fish, small raw oysters, octopus and seaweed, instead of normal US bar fare of pretzels, peanuts, pickled eggs, etc.  I could never really handle the oyster, but the yellowtail was very good with the right sauces.

  Cheers Mate,

  Jeff

  Hi

  Sounds great. Fresh fish, beer and the beach. I've never been able to look at an oyster and not think of bronchitis, so I'm with you there. Thank God nobody ever stood a jar of pickled eggs on the bar either, the breeze should gently rustle through grass skirts not tear through like a couple of pints of napalm!

  I can understand salty snacks, getting you to drink more, but pickled eggs? Just encouraged showboating and with the overconfidence of 15 pints inside saw many nightclub visits cancelled because somebody had a family emergency or suddenly rushed out the door, looking pale, and rolled down the street with that familiar John Wayne gait on the way home.

  Ah, happy days

  Cheers!

  Rich

  You're whining about coming up short on your drives into the wind. Why may i ask is a level 91 legend playing from the tips  using the level 48 TM R1 driver when there are so many options around level 91 that will get you more distance and cut through the wind better as well.
