It was easier breaking up in the 09’s

I wanna look away but at the same time want to see the excitement for it, real catch 22.

We played with these in a hickory tournament a couple years ago. That specific ball is not available but they have several other ā€œhickory appropriateā€ balls.

the National Custom Instagram gets this question every once in a while (blanking on who runs the account) and he always defers to the Bridgestone line

This thread is like a car wreck on the side of the road. I know I need to move on, but I can’t look away.

Any out of towners staying through Friday and want to get another round in the next morning? Trying to decide if I’ll bring my clubs with me or just ship them through to where I’ll be headed next.
Edit- or in-towners too I suppose

I can get a tee time or two out at Rockwood for Friday morning depending on interest. It’s def the best muni in Ft. Worth IMHO.

Hopefully they have the 8th green repaired and uncovered soon. Played there a couple of weeks ago and they had a temporary green set up. Apart from that, the rest of the course was in great shape!

I played the Rock today. 8th hole temporary green was gone. Back to the regular green on 8. Aside from a shut down tee box on 12, the course was in pretty good shape.

I’m definitely in for a Friday morning round (meaning my wife just approved me playing 2 days in a row)!

There is a Big Hickory group in Baton Rouge. Many of them use Callaway super soft or the Wilson Balls that advertise as the softest. It funny because they also get them in bright colors, even while wearing the era specific clothing

I am around on Friday and can probably grab another guy if needed. Getting a ton of rain in FW now so the rock should be in good shape by then.

Got the email over the weekend. When it says the format is team competition, does that mean a points system, a scramble, something else? And for walking, I’m guessing we’ll have caddies or are we carrying?

Patience, my friend.

Two best balls per group (everyone plays own ball)
no caddies. Will have push carts available, also the hickory bags have half as many clubs so it’s a light lift.

There was an email sent out over the weekend? I’m not finding anything in my inbox.

Found a few things to practice with at the antique mall this weekend!
