Home club Northcliffe on Saturday. It's Captain's day so the course will be set up as difficult as it can be - maximum length, pins cut at top or bottom of ridges. So that will be 0.1 back on the handicap then!

Playing at The Belfry next week. Been before and found it overhyped.  Several dull holes only slightly offset by the 10th & 18th. Those holes at least give you the chance to relive all those exciting Ryder Cup moments.
2014 to date: not actually played anywhere yet!
Still to come: Hollins Hall; Ripon City; Shipley; Perranporth; St Enodoc

Elcona CC in Elkhart, IN. My first time playing there and I've heard it's pretty nice.

Sunday at Blackthorn Golf Club in South Bend, IN

Rio Pinar CC in Orlando.  Walked 18 in the heat and humidity this AM, shot 78 with something that might resemble a golf swing but only through the rosiest of glasses ;D

Won $6 as well so all in all it was a well spent morning-and our entire foursome walked also!

My Saturday was spent with Evan Fleisher completing the Eau Claire double. A morning round at Eau Claire GCC and an afternoon round at Wild Ridge.

Today? Well, it's pouring right now so I'm not optimistic.

Got to see and play Engineers with Jason Blasberg and Naffer.

Definitely a course to visit for anyone interested in wild holes and incredible greens.  The company was even better.

...and a great time was had by all!!!  I survived 45 holes in two days on a bum knee...the new Sun Mountain Speed Cart was a godsend (sorry Barney, but I did it!) and the three courses including Big Fish Golf Club up in Hayward made for a great weekend.
Born Rochester, MN. Grew up Miami, FL. Live Cleveland, OH. Handicap 13.2. Have 26 & 23 year old girls and wife of 29 years. I'm a Senior Supply Chain Business Analyst for Vitamix. Diehard walker, but tolerate cart riders! Love to travel, always have my sticks with me. Mollydooker for life!

My oldest son, David (15), and I won the Father-Junior tournament at our club.  It was a 9-hole alternate shot format.  We shot a nifty 38 (with David missing a 1-footer) to win by 6.  The jubilation and expression on my son's face was priceless.  We had matching shirts, shorts and belts and were just as coordinated on the golf course.  I'll post a photo when I get it from the club.  My wife and younger son saw us come home to victory and afterwards we had a great cookout at the clubhouse.  Awesome!!
