Running numbers on a possible wild combination of additional prospects.

If we gitshirt 4 current guys and landed:

5* Mims
5* Grimes
5* Mondon
4* Sapp
4* Willis
4* Colson
4* N Brown
4* Ritzie
4* K Evans
4* Salter
3* Colby Smith
3* Bell

We would finish with 298 points. 92 average. Good for 3rd-5th the last few years. Would be nuts.

That class would be 315 points when all of the final numbers are done IMHO. A lot of kids will get bumps as the season goes along.

My son and I played Friday with a couple. She was a new golf and a little slow. He had one of the pro caddie note books that you see on tour.
He would consult it before every shot. It would take as long as the tour pros for every shot and putt. However, the results were no where near the same. His score and my score were pretty much the same on every hole (except on the holes that I made par, he never did). My son was losing patience and wouldn’t have played the back nine if they did.

I am not a great golfer by any stretch of the imagination. But pace of play is important. I can’t stand the average to below average golfer who slow plays every shot like they are at Augusta. Or plays from the back couple sets of tees and hardly ever hits past the ladies tees.
On the back 9, we caught the group in front of us, but couldn’t play through due to a foursome ahead. They would wait to tee off until the group ahead was on the green, then hit under 200 yards off the tee.
Thought my son was going to lose it ( he takes after his Mom in the lack of patience department) I kept laughing at him and enjoyed not being at work. The weather was great.
Maybe it did bug me...end rant//

Sounds like some of my least favorite days on the links. It's still good - you were on the course, outside, with your son.

One of my most memorable was the senior father/middle age son combo my daughter and I were paired with one day about 15 years ago on a vacation on Hilton Head. They were dressed for tour play. They had the great new clubs, bags, shoes, yardage books, etc. They saw the starter wave us over to join them. You should have seen their faces filled with disgust at having to play with pudgy, middle aged hillbilly with his skinny teenage daughter who played with men's clubs (senior shafts). So we let them hit first off the tee. Then I teed off and blew by them 75 yards down the middle. Then they started to get in their cart while shaking their heads and muttering to drive to the ladies tees. I told them to stop. My daughter was teeing up on the same tees. She gets up and hits it 30 yards past theirs down the gut as well. The look on their faces was priceless. When she got a sandy par on the third hole they realized it was for real.

They turned into the nicest guys, highly complimentary, and we had a very pleasant round after they learned a lesson in humility. They saw we didn't use yardage books and look at every putt from a hundred angles to have single digit handicaps, so they stopped and by the back nine began to play better.

They bought lunch for us all.
