The school I teach at obviously is as the ABA is the accreditation body.  Personally, I am not.

I get it, you are mad at the world because you are an adult caddie and few people take you seriously.

Excellent spellers usually lack any vision or common sense.

I know plenty of courses that are in the red, and they are killing it.

#10 might be my favorite hole out there.  You have to challenge the bunker and the left side of the fairway otherwise you have a blind approach over the rocks.  

JC,

Me too, I thought I was the only one. It's not as beautiful as all of the others at Greywalls, just real basic strategy done extremely well. The open drive lulls you into carelessly driving away with little regard for position, and then it bites you!

Yes, John, you're favorite picture of me.

My tips would be to swing harder considering I hit my subsequent shot from the rocks, just lower down on the hill.

JC,

How much do you attribute the great poster that you are today to the chip on your shoulder from not attending U of M?  ;D

I have nothing but the highest respect for the University of Michigan as an academic institution.

JC, Nothing more to add here.  I just wanted to add another Michigan institution of higher learning logo to the page.

With the three little ones, I can tell you that my wife and I have only been out to eat once since we've been down here.  We went to Trulucks and I HIGHLY recommend it.

I don't really have any thoughts of my own on this matter.  I just like to quote some obscure passage and pass it off as mine to impress girls.

  JC,

  Your favorite golf hole?

This is a really hard question as "favorite" to me incorporates not only holes that I find architecturally interesting but also ones that I have an emotional attachment to for one reason or another.  Some of my favorites are:

#11 Pac Dunes
#1 Belvedere
#9 Crystal Downs
#1 High Pointe

Quote
  Do your students look young to you?

The age range on my students is 20 - 63 years old.  Some look younger than others.

  Its not golf season in Michagan, is summer golf in Florida too hot?

I dont think so.  Usually if you stay hydrated and protect yourself from the sun you'll do alright.  Summer in Florida ain't 1/10th as good as summer in northern Michigan though.

Quote
  Have you ever played/eaten squash?

yes/no.

Quote
  Play safe or go for it?

  You're a good man.....Anthony



The older I get the more I lean towards the former though not too long ago, the dial was turned all the way to the latter :)
