And thatβs where the fail is!! Pound for pound always desktop. Iβve always fancied a gaming laptop but the cost of a decent spec is too rich for me. Ask Leon Loftyando about his laptop. Similar to mine, it is great and can attach a second monitor and be just as great as a desktop with more flexibility to move if needed. Yes it was pricey, but a worthy investment if space is a concern. All comes down to price Art. I don't need my gaming PC to be mobile so I'd sooner spend my hard earned on a Desktop with as much bang as I can afford to put in it.

Happy Hour Team Cup
We reach the Semi Final stage where the Better Ball match play ties will take place over Round 4 of this week's TGCT Beer League event at The Salt and Sand Club. Please remember (especially myself) that all players not registered with the Beer League will need to produce their Round 4 scorecard. Failing that they'll have to go back and get it (like I had to last week!).
The matches are.....
Born To Rum vs Menace To Sobriety
Whisky Galore vs Lush Puppies
Good luck!!! Onward!!!

Pub CrawlI just don't know what to say about this. My tempo was absolutely to rat sh%$. I've no idea why but I'm noticing I'm starting to struggle on these rounds every week. My tempo seems to differ so much compared to playing Master. Perhaps it's in my head, I don't know, but just couldn't get anything to come off on a course I know well and love. Gutted is an understatement...

Beer League Round 1 SkyBlueBen Played decent, 1 bogey on a par 3 that took a crazy swing off the tee box and went swimming. Even the hubby said What the f'k was that ! So ended up with -9 that could have easily been a -11 Thats life in the fast lane I guess!

One For The Road
A little better. Even managed a Big Bird. Lovely course just as we've come to expect from Michael @babybull The man is a machine when it comes to designing great courses. Now off to change my pixel golfers clothing back to what he was wearing when he was playing well. Should never have changed my outfit. That's what has gone wrong. I realise now. Oh, and off to collect my Round 4 Beer League card which I (again) forgot to save!! Doh!!!

Brew Crew - Untapped: The Society Round 2 is in the books and it was sobering for many participants as a lot of mocktails were served! We enjoyed our time at Pat's place and here's how are things shook out last week (I think... We'll see what I goofed up this week π€¦ββοΈπ): And by system: Congrats to dave69 grabbing the top spot this week and earning not only the digital champagne but also the yellow band to his name for the week! πΎπ On X1, Kie held off the -12 triplets. When Ricky Bobby's father said "If you're not first, you're last", it was built for a moment like this π In the weekly episode of "Just Us Two" on PS, we saw Pete and Paul take a splash as they earned themselves good quality h2o. Stay hydrated, gents! ππ§ After 2 rounds, here is how the drink card is looking: There are just 3 men standing (for now) in keeping all of their drinks alcoholic. Can they score at least a -20 at Austin Country Club by Magners Monarch Jeff W ( hoosierhoops24 )? We'll find out! This week's lineup of drinks is looking like this: The cocktail will be a classic, the Mai Tai: 1 1/2 ounces white rum 3/4 ounce orange curaΓ§ao 3/4 ounce lime juice, freshly squeezed 1/2 ounce orgeat 1/2 ounce dark rum Garnish: lime wheel Garnish: mint sprig The mocktail is a Mango Mule. Unlike with it's Russian cousin, you can drink as many of these as you'd like and not have to worry about ending up singing drunk karaoke at the end of the night with an ushanka on your head: 4-5 slices of cucumber 1 oz honey syrup 1.5 oz mango puree 1.5 oz fresh lime juice 1.5 oz ginger beer And water is well... wet. π§ I hope you are enjoying your rounds as they are actually meant to be scored by fun had and not strokes earned! π If you haven't joined in the action yet, it's never too late! Just join the Brew Crew Untapped society on your system and play the weekly 2 rounds as little or as much as you'd like! π π¦πΊ

SkyBlueBenFirst off, some sad news to report, my father-in-law passed away yesterday after a lengthy bout with cancer. My wife is already in Utah, where he lived, and I will be flying out there tomorrow afternoon. I honestly am unsure when I will be back. Pub Crawl first two rounds : R1 : -11 (60) R2 : - 6 (65) I will play my last two rounds and OFTR today, as well as my knockout round. IGolfBad - obviously, I won't be able to do a live match up for the Blue Hawaiian, which is a bummer, as I was looking forward to streaming with you again. I'll play my round today so you can pick up my ghost. I don't know yet what next week will bring, I may need a sub, I may be back in time to play my rounds before week's end. I'll check back in with Ben and my teammates next weekend when the timeline may be a bit clearer.
