2nd Annual North Star Shootout - July 10th, 2021 ***WRAP UP - POST 1858***

My favorite.

It’s looking good out there…can’t wait for the greens to be running fast in July!

Also, the bocce ball court for a post round hangout is going to be great!

Great time out there today, it was blowing 30 mph plus, it won’t be like that in July. I didn’t capture many great pics unfortunately, but I did capture a Shakespearen tragedy in 2 parts.

Honestly it’s not bad, they have helicopters drop mosquito killer in all the ponds and wetlands of Edina.

@BaxterMSP Upon further review:

It does look like we’re all systems go with baseball this season. As a result, I can’t make the Northstar this year :frowning:
Working out a plan to come up and visit/play golf a few weeks later - but unfortunately we have a home series during Northstar week

Welp. The same good-for-nothing friend that scheduled his wedding for the weekend of the Ope-In has scheduled his bachelor party for the weekend of the NSS. It is with the heaviest of hearts that I withdraw from the competition and forfeit my first round match to @earlsmithiii.

What you mean to say is “I’m taking applications for new friends and looking forward to the in person interviews at the NSS and Ope-in”

First DJ takes himself out of consideration for the Olympics, and now these withdrawals.

Not sure what disappoints me more.

Listen, we’ll be OK because while we hate to see a withdrawal on the account of shitty friends that also means last year’s low scorer moves off the waitlist.

@Billy_Baroo how does a confirmed spot in the NSS sound?

Team Viola is aware of the ‘situation’ surrounding @DuckDuckGreyDuckHook and his inability to attend the 2nd Annual North Star Shootout.

After some diligent scouting this past weekend, we have decided to pick up @JMK as a replacement for Mr. DuckHook. Unfortunately it seems that @JMK will be unable to grow a mullet but what he lacks in hair he more than makes up for with his golf game and #vibes.

Can confirm.

Great pick up, but @midwestgolfbum ’s nice guys are rolling into this thing with a W in mind.

Wow, honored to say the least. Don’t know where to start. So many people to thank who got me here today. My wife, my mom, my dogs. Thank you to the Viola organization for taking a chance on this old overweight never has been bald guy. I’m sure I’ll let ya down, but man, it will be done with full hearts and clear minds. Looking forward to the Cake Eater open. Good thing I like cake.
