Zuckerman wins his match. I won because my opponent didn't show. We were the first group in. Second group should be here in about an hour

An honorable person would have taken a half.

I would take the over on the hour prediction.  If so, assume darkness could become an issue.

After all these years of going to these things I've learned that there are just so many that are wired to last. I think of Arble and Pearce at Porthcawl drinking whisky at 2am when the bar was properly closed an hour earlier.  Kavanaugh staying with me as long as he could at the bar at Dismal last October (he rolled out at midnight while I bussed tables). Yet this past year I've traveled and met Ron Csigo on four occasions and more often than not he and I end up closing down the local establishments. I love it when Cheech does a GCA outing! :)

  I remember Cheech busing some tables at Seminole before the mad dash to the pharmacy.

I noticed when Eric sent the e-mail he sent it upside down, then I realized he was probably drunk.

What a crew in that picture.  I had a phenomenal time at Haig Point with them all yesterday.  How was Wexford today, gents?

What a weekend. Thanks to Eric Smith for putting together a great event.
Haig is a true test of golf. Some stout oceanside par 3's.

You should have been able to "thaw out" with temperatures around 75 Saturday.
Tim Gavrich and Joel.

Tim and I.

Someone rang the dinner bell.

And Wexford Sunday. A chamber of commerce day, 80 degrees in February.
The par 3 17th.

Kudos to Brandon Johnson and Arnold Palmer Design for their work at Wexford.
The transformation of the bunkering, the greens and surrounding collection areas is outstanding. The greens are creative, challenging, fun and distinctive. A "night and day" difference at Wexford.
Mike Whitaker on the second. And thanks Mike for your work in making a great event happen.

And to the guys. It was a pleasure, as always. Cheers.

Paging Lawrence Largent. ;D

Thanks Bruce. Great great event. Too many anecdotes and recipes shared to go into detail right now but suffice it to say everyone who made it to Hilton Head had a great time and if you played with me you got to see some really bad golf. I'm on the road for the better part of 8 hours and will post some thoughts and a few photos when I get home.

I will say this - Brandon Johnson kicked ass with his design at Wexford!!

Mac blessed it.

A very special thanks to Brandon Johnson for taking the time to join us and discuss the work at Wexford which is top notch.
