Will be disappointed if you’re not swinging PXGs today. And I cannot believe I’m only getting one stroke from the reigning Corales Puntacana Resort and Club Championship Champion! Outrageous.

T&Ps for ol Burban. :horse:

That was a great day, guis. I don’t have a single photo. Excellent outing @PTM! Bonus case of Spotted Cow back across the border.

Absolutely stellar outing. Can’t seem to avoid the wind in these Refuge events this year, but @BabblingBrooksKoepka and I managed to pull out a W (barely) for The Lancers. Was a pleasure playing with @baldvinny and Pat, whose handle I don’t know.

Don’t know who he is but the man carrying two drinks and his own clubs is a professional!

Didn’t get the pic, but shout out to the 230 yd par 3 into a 25 mph wind that ate everyone’s lunch

Rumspringa turned into a great event.

Save the date coming for The 2nd Annual Burban Memorial NLU Golf Classic.

Also, PayPal payments going out shortly to the victorious Lancers. I know I paid @HackMarkham and @b1gg2594 in cash yesterday. There was one other as well, if you could remind me that’d be great.

Formally putting forth a motion to stay on the same teams for following years of the Burban Memorial NLU Golf Classic.
We need an opportunity to redeem ourselves and win one for Theodore.

Some interesting Burban developments this morning:

Then there’s the history. Spring Valley was closed during World War II and reverted to pasture. Nancy Bairstow, granddaughter of the owner, often rode her horse, Burban, out to what is now the 14th tee, where she whiled away the hours reading books and sharing peanut butter-and-jelly sandwiches with her beloved liver-colored Morgan.

When Burban died in 1954, the horse was buried in that very spot. A memorial poem written by Nancy is inscribed on a granite and bronze marker on the tee box:

“Under the ground where we used to play

Lays the greatest horse I’ve ever known to this day.

May God love him as greatly as I,

For now he is the greatest horse in the sky.”

Far better story than Steve Wynn burying his “favorite” dolphins in the 17th at Shadow Creek.

Well done, still very sad I missed this year.

Motion seconded.

I wonder if that video of us all teeing off at the same time will ever surface?
