AM1 men are going to play WAY more golf than the Pro Men (Olathe, WyCo, Rosedale, Waterworks, Blue Valley!)


Who's coming to see me in June?

[dvlcek]

I'm looking to make it out again this year from CO.

Bringing the pain killers for my arm after WyCo and Blue Valley though.

[Timko]

AM1 is going to be an endurance contest....

[Timko]

Bump. 3 weeks away. Who's coming?

[dvlcek]

Signed up earlier in the week. Not for sure what time I will be out there to check in on Thursday but planning on playing a few holes with Andy at the monster. Had a blast last year so had to make it back out again this year. Love the BBQ too.

There's no need to practice Blue Valley. Go look at hole 3 for sure though; it's the most technical shot out there. Otherwise, it's drive, drive, maybe drive again, approach, putt. Read the par sign, and try to make that every time you step up to the hole. Par on that course is very good; I think it's a 67, and that was a 990 rated round last night. Realistly, if the course is tipped out, keep it in the mid / low 70's and you'll be beating half the field. I thank god I've learned how to throw a wraith far in the past few weeks, or I'd be screwed!

Go play Waterworks, Rosedale, or Olathe. That's where you're going to score.

Andy was telling me that shooting par was the way to go on BV. Think we were going to just play a couple of holes there and not the entire thing on Thursday. Then maybe hit Prairie Center on the way back to his place for a little casual round. I love the Water Works courses and Rosey. Fits my style of play a little better than just bombing like WyCo and BV. Oh well, it's all about having some fun and playing with some new people I meet out there.

[Timko]

It will be good stuff.

Anyone else coming? Come on folks, I know a bunch of people live in Missouri/Iowa/Oklahoma.

I might be able to go.

Did you forget about kansas

[Timko]

Sorry about that. Actually, those Emporia guys can stay home; I'm tired of getting my ass kicked by them .

[MDR_3000]

You know i'm gonna be there.

You know i'm gonna be there.

Gonna be in the 50's at BV?

[MDR_3000]

if my putting doesn't fail me (which it hasn't been lately) then for sure. I shot in the 50s at Creve Couer which I think is about the same kind of golf minus the elevation.

If the course is tipped out, then there's only 3 holes you can 2 (2, 10, and 15). Maybe you can get 12, but it's uphill 500 ft. For someone with your distance, your tough 3's are going to be 3 (maybe, but you can throw over the lake if you get up on the side), 7 if it's long (that's going to be a par 5 anways, you should be able to get a look for 4), 9 if they make a mando to keep people from throwing over the trees (another par 5), and 18, because the only person who has ever 3'd it was a lefty.

I think AO said in 2006 Brinster went past the pin in 2 on 18.
