I saw that my friend Ryan Kelly made his first post this morning, so I figured I'd give him a quick shout-out.  Ryan is a car dealer, a good player and a member at Olympia Fields in suburban Chicago.  He's been lurking here for quite awhile and decided to take a whack at getting whacked on this site.  Welcome!

Welcome, Ryan.

You don't need any advice from me, but here it is anyway -- fire away freely, say whatever you want about any subject that strikes your fancy; BUT, be as quiet as a church mouse when it comes to Chicago-area courses!  The loudest, most persistent and most obstreperous know-it-alls and homers on this entire site are all from Chicago!.  I often find myself blushing when I read their posts....

(I guess you probably knew this already)

Best
Peter

Ryan, a couple of other Chicago-related thoughts....

Avoid use of the "cheater line" at all times.

But it's okay to use the long putter anchored to your body.

Is your home course being sold to Donald Trump? I hear that the Donald is looking to buy a Chicago area course.
I love golf, the fightin irish, and beautiful women depending on the season and availability.
