The obvious lesson here is to regrip your clubs often.  ;)  ;D


I disagree. The obvious lesson is that your grip SUCKS!

 ;D

(You'll enjoy kicking my ass in a game all the more now)

Thanks Joe...now you're in big trouble!

Ask Patrick Mucci...

He told me, very sincerely, that he has never, ever, in all of his year's of golf, seen a wedge game quite like mine.   

I'm very very proud of that fact.    ;D

What a sizzling putt :)



Routing around the towers does not automatically make things better :)

It shows in this aerial the tower is clearly to the right of the cart path.

That tower connects to the tower directly behind the green.

And when I was a kid, it was directly in the middle of the fairway!

We have a set running through the property at LedgeRock. They are the main lines across berks county so burying them was out of the question with the power company due to maintenance. We couldn't leave them as one set of poles was in the middle of what is now 11, another the middle of 10 pro tee and another 'in' 12 green. One option was to reroute them but it would have resulted in removing most of the trees in the area which would have looked terrible. So after looking at it (and getting the power companies approval) we moved the poles into the tree lines and raised them to gain more height under them (and it saved quite a bit of money). Anyway the result is now they do not intrude on the course.

Here is a pic of 11 fairway (the poles are just visible in the right trees).
