My, how the good folks who post here continue to impress.
I am happy to report that a group of gentlemen from this website's discussion group got together and played as many as 45 holes down in South Carolina this past weekend and that a good time was had by all. Once again, a smattering of old friends and new showed up, played and talked a bunch of golf, drank plenty of beer and afterwards - as per usual when a group of GCAers get together - expressed their desire do it again, same time next year.
I'd like to give a huge thank you to Clyde Johnston and Jim Uremovich for hosting us at Old South on Saturday. The golf course was in excellent shape, was a ton of fun to play and both the staff and service were first rate. Clyde and Jim are, imo, two of the finest gents in the game.
Another huge thank you to the Dye Fan from Savann, Joel Zuckerman. He invited us out to Secession, ordered up chamber of commerce weather, great caddies, some damn fine seafood chowder - and did it all with a smile.
The only negative of the weekend that I can think of was, not surprisingly, JC Jones.
Poor guy brought a stomach bug with him and after only a few holes on day 1, was forced to pack it in and head back to the house.
You were missed, Jason.
I took only a handful of pics, though I think others may have more to share at some point.
Many thanks to Brent, Mark, Ben, Ward, Mac, Jason, Anthony, Michael, Chuck, Jim, Clyde, Joel, Joe and Joseph for making the trip. It was a great time and I am certain that we'll try to do it again next January.
Cheers!
