Good stuff, Chris! Yeah, Clovis is my golfing buddy. I'll make sure to pass along your regards when he wakes up... I LOVE him!!!
We have two cats. I can't find the pics where Merlin was cattying for me during 2K21. He gave me a bad yardage at a crucial point in a round, so I had to sack him. We haven't spoken of it since. Thinking about it, though, maybe I should get him back on the bag. I couldn't do much worse

OFTR - week 6 + a bonus which matters none This was my OFTR score for the week. Better stuff. For how awful some of the stats were. Did probably help that I went 6/8 from long putts despite 30 feet+ of proximity over 18 holes. And less than half of fairways hit. And I believe a score for every green hit in regulation. Art VandelayAs for the bonus? Well for those in the knockouts, I have a back 9 for sale to the highest bidder, should you ever need it. Don't come asking for my help when someone's knocking at the door and asking if something seems off.

Don't think I've ever had a blob in TBC before three tournaments ago. Now I have two You should see my score this week.. totally a §hit show again.. figured out controller was acting weird so replaced with another but by the time I did so, I was beyond care-bearing. Should definitely give me a blob this week unless the Golf Gods screw things up in my favor

Art Vandelay Pub Crawl-- I enjoyed the CC course and the choice of settings this week. Fun all the way through. R2 was the most challenging for me as I hit a beaucoup of deep bunkers. and R4 scorecard...

Thank you for having me back! I can’t wait to spread my mediocre pixel golf to yet another team!

If we’re talking about real golf I got as low as 3 handicap at my local club had 5 hole in ones and a couple of Jessica’s not bad for a disabled golfer. I did consider getting a job as a club pro but the money wasn’t good then days. I had polio at age two that left me with a very weak right leg that was also three inches shorter than my left, the advantage that left me with was I was always playing from an uphill lie. Every cloud has a silver lining 😊

Pub Crawl @ 1 2 3Opened with 2x K Klub rounds, played well without any reward. Missing cuts that side of the server becoming an annoying habit now. Then hit the TBC ones, played badly without any reward. The opening -7 was bogey free, the -9 one came with 3x bogeys, and the -10 round had a double. Decided after the 2nd round to go and donate to the cause, hoping the payoff would be good. Nada. No chance. Also went for pizza and beer then, fortunately that was cheaper. My gaming cat buddy got lonely, decided i was worthy and visited for the 3rd round when we came back from the restaurant. She took dibs on the desktop without pushing the mouse off the table, and without pressing the space bar with her tail or blocking my view from the screen. Amazing. She did not stay long and flopped down on the side table and still sleeping as i type. Must be the garlic. And then going for the glory 4th round all i got is some or other unknown server/connection/whatever error message. I guess that is the golf for the day then. Art Vandelay

Wow is all I can say, some truly horrific close putting (90% then 80% short putts made) and several mental errors lead to this.
R1: +1 R2: -2
Art - I will need a sub next week or an extension. I don't care which, but I can't start playing until Thursday at the earliest. Going to visit my parents for a week. I am good either way, just let me know please.

Okay, folks. Seeing as I'm back, I just wanted to say a big thank you for all the very kind messages. They meant a very great deal to me and were instrumental in me changing my mind.
prowse00 , your video made me howl with laughter.
Harveydog500 your pic hit me right in the feels. I love cats with a real passion, so that one really got me.
SkyBlueBen thank you. Hearing that I'd be welcomed back made my day and helped a great deal.
inflames47 I'd have missed you a great deal too, my friend.
Those are the ones that stick in my mind right now, so apologies if I've missed anyone. To all the rest of you, thank you so much for calming this grizzled old bear and making him see sense. I'm grateful to each and every one of you.
So there you go. You're stuck with me now. I might still post -- "might" lol -- grumpy messages, but I ain't going anywhere.
Also, I wanted to contribute to the HIO/Jessica chat. I stopped playing around 20 years or so ago. Health issues and change of priorities put paid to my 5 handicap. Ho hum.
If I recall correctly, I ended up with 5 HIOs and a 1-foot miss for a Jessica. I was playing the 13th at Trevose Golf Club in Cornwall, back around 1997 or so. Fabulous golf course and a real links experience. I've hit 64-degree wedge on the par 3 3rd hole in the morning the day before -- around 140 yards -- and come up 20 yards short in the afternoon with a 3 iron, but I digress. The 13th was playing around 550 yards that afternoon, decently downwind, and the fairways were pretty firm. My teeshot was high on the face, but had I around 250 to go. Hit 6 iron that flew about 210 and then ran and ran and ran. I couldn't see its progress much after it landed because of the bumps and slopes. When we got up to the green, my ball was around a foot from the hole. The group teeing off on the next hole said it lipped out. It's hard to feel angry when you have a tap-in eagle, but what might have been lol
Well, there's my story. Thought I'd share.
TBC forever Our grizzly bear isn't allowed to hibernate. I'm glad you are staying with the Crew.

BearI’m happy your sticking around, we all have shitty rounds and bad losses of form these guys will tell you I’ve been going to drop out of brew crew at least 6 times in the last few years but support from these guys have kept me here. My latest time was just after this game released Xbox and an Xbox wireless controller just don’t work I qualified for the tours in CC-J and was going to quit because I could barely score under par. It was suggested I buy a Razer wired controller which I did played the first week with it and asked Doyley to check my api results which he did and ok’d it for use on the tours. If you think your games bad try playing this game on Xbox with a wireless controller.

Also, I am putting together a GOLF HOCKEY LEAGUE society. So, for those of you who would like a course added I can arrange that. Give me your best/favorite course that you created, and I'll make it happen! Probably have room for 3 to 6 entries.
