Wow! I was feeling pretty good about -9 with 18 GIR and then WHATCHA?

Nice round Steve.

Well, you used it again obviously. I shoot another -9 (and I will say I left shots out there), and you up your lead.

I would be well satisfied with a -36 if I can achieve it even if you do beat my brains out.

It does get more difficult as the speeds increase. I've actually been working on a technique to improve my tempo and straightness off the tee. If I concentrate I can achieve it, but as with the 3 holes after the turn in round 2, not always

First bogey of the tournament on #3... dumb bogey, then a huge number of slide bys on the remainder of the front nine for -3 out.

Luck took over on the back with chip-ins for a birdie and an eagle for -7 coming home.

M(C)/F(C) in Round #4 should prove interesting.

Same for me in round 3, with my first bogie and putts missing by inches :roll:

Didn't score as well as you, but managed to sneak a on shot lead :lol:

Probably doesn't help that I've been around at my dad's on and off today, keeping him company with the help of my wife in his final days :cry:

I'm sure it doesn't. I'm close to my brother and his daughters. He lost his oldest (47) to complications of throat cancer last month. It was a long battle with a roller coaster of emotions tons of phone calls back and forth.

I was in the process of making a fake well to cover my well-water pump. So, it's become a memorial.

Very nice memorial.

This is mine for my dad.

The name and date will obviously go on after he passes, and will have some of his ashes in the ink :cry:

Well Steve, I gave you a target at least. Again, the back #9 was very, very good to me. Another chip-in for eagle.

I said I'd be happy with -36. -39 even better.
