Irene Hits CT

So I hope no one had any plans to play the Country Club of Fairfield for a little bit because Hurricane Irene has basically shut it down for the rest of the year. From the pictures I've seen there's not way it can be playable again this year. That's what happens when you build a golf course on a freaking beach. I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that anyone reading this can't afford to play there anyway.

Tashua on July 4th Weekend!

We got a tee time at 12:50 on Saturday the 2nd. Absolutely perfect day for golf. Was sunny, but a little cloudy and in the mid 80's. No pictures. Check out my last post for some

I played with Cheese Steak, Digital and Pac-man. Pac-man and I shared a cart and killed it. we had to scramble a bit the get there on time, even though it was after 12. Stuff happens when you rock hard the night before. Thankfully for the other chumps I bought a 24 pack of balls so they were able to scam mine. The Nike SFT's are underrated and inexpensive. http://www.dickssportinggoods.com/product/index.jsp?productId=4002621&cid=CSE:GoogleProductSearch

We rolled in there with a couple coolers packed. We had to skip the 20 oz cocktail this time because we were all pretty well stocked. Digital and cheese steak brought there own coolers and I packed my bag with brews and freezer packs so I rocked the entire time.

The course was in great shape. I don't know if you remember me saying something about the conditions earlier in the year. The front 9 wasn't good earlier, but now it's as nice as the back 9. I should have taken more pics. Fail on my part.

Drive was on point. We were playing best ball, Digital and I vs the others. Digital played like crap and the handicaps were off so it was difficult for me to take a hole. After 12 hold Digital and I were down 5. We pressed and went up 2 holes going into the 18th. Cheese Steak hogpressed and somehow they took us down.
