I look forward to you being the next David.. are you up for the task .. So happy to have made your acquaintance Ron.. let us keep this friendship going .. I could never hold a candle to David nor would I want to try to be the next one. I need about 20 more years of curmudgeonary to even consider qualifying. Still I do cherish the friendship we have and will always be up for a game of golf or a chit chat should you ever desire.
Great to hear about the name change of the memorial tournament! When does this event happen and on which tour?

We will rename the Liz Chappell Memorial Cup to the Dave & Liz Chappell Memorial Cup. inflames47 Jeff,aka SmilingGoats from the bottom of my heart, I can only say Thank you. To David, this is his Legacy, just to be remembered by his peers. He truly loved TCG tours and golfing with his friends. Not all of you knew him, golfed with him, but he was so passionate. Like the rest of us he literally lived to golf. That is only because I could snipe better than him.. I just had to throw a joke in there David.. in order to ease my pain of losing my best friend.. See you on the Dark Side of the moon-- #wishyouwerehere

He loved to compete especially when a great golfer such as yourself would be in the mix, just ask Brighttail ! Oh he had quite ta few words about coruler2 and B.Smooth13 and others. Usually a few choice words about how friggen good you all are but it always ended with a respect for your game. He might complain about it but he respected that you all had game.

Just checking in here, been a while since I have posted. I want to thank each and everyone of you for your continued support in our society. We have had some great success, the leader boards have shown some new players rising to the top. We have the cream of the crop for members and everyone who plays improves their game. We also are seeing new faces and just want to say Welcome to the Society, hope you have fun and play well. On Thurs Jan 31-Feb3 I will be running the DJ Chappell Memorial Tournament in honor of 2tootall . It is a Major Event, 4 rounds at Troon North Monument GC. I picked this course to honor him as he traveled many times in his youth to Arizona for golfing and I know he would have loved this course. I hope you all will join in just in memory of him. I also hope you might pass this along to some of your friends you golf with and have them stop in to show support for a former member of TGC tours and the IB Society that left us much to soon. Many Thanks in Advance Inflames

Basically everything that could go wrong for me did except for one hole-out eagle. I'd try to get a fast downswing off the tee, I'd slam the stick forward, and almost all my tee shots were P/P. I'd try to hit my approach shots normally, and most of them were fast or slow downswings, and the ones that weren't were P/P straight in the cone and no wind to speak of but would end up with a massive hook or slice into a bunker anyway. Plus a half dozen putts inside 10 feet that I missed.
