Sounds good to me. I think either date works equally well for Hawk and I. Just a heads up though they only allow afternoon tee times for public play.

So there we were. It was the best of times. It was the hottest of times.
I had been informed the morning of our match that my opponent, @westerj12, had not picked up a club in at least 3 weeks. This sounds promising, I thought, but wait, did he regain some beginners luck during his hot weather hiatus? Only time would tell.
Truth be told, I, too, was battling back from some shenanigans. The previous night, the bottom of a pool and my nose met each other briefly, so it was a gruesome sight to face off against on a steamy August morning. Weāll find out how strong his stomach is.
We exchanged pleasantries, an awkward fist bump handshake, and headed to the first tee at the battleground of the day, the venerable Pine Needles. The course in outstanding condition, the starter, ever loquacious, informed the group that not only was it our time to tee off, but that he was once a cop, and that he was a former marine, and from New York, and that he once had a beard. Now we were ready. Tee balls away and we were off. And let me tell you, it was not pretty.
Fore a few seconds, this place was Armageddon. THERE WAS A PILLOW FIGHT!!!
Just an absolute roller coaster of a match; I got out to a solid start, 4 up through 5. Jonathan, with thoughts of Ames running through his head, fired up the locomotive and began to run. My confidence beginning to wane and him remembering how golf worked he plowed ahead and took the lead on 11 by sticking his approach from the sandy area to about 4" for a tap in birdie.
In baseball terms, our match batted for the cycle including hole winning scores of birdie, par, bogey, double, and yes, even a triple bogey winner. It was not pretty but it was real.
Jonathanās return to form ultimately withered in the 96F heat and he found the trees on 14, 15, 16 giving me enough of a window to close out the match 3&2. The driver worked fairly well for me on the day, and I think that was the difference maker for the match (couldnāt make any putts). An exciting match with lots of ups and downs, but I thoroughly enjoyed the competition, and the company.
Having @pluds26 and @CrucialTauntās round of 16 match next to us going a full 18 holes kept us well aware of the stakes and the level of competition to be had. Iām still hopeful that one day I can get fit into a driver that makes the same sound as Patās.

What a summary! I love it!
Despite it being hotter than the devilās taint I had a great time out there. Iām glad I was at least able to make it a match after our torrid (ugly) start. Iāll definitely be rooting hard for @ColoniusFunk moving forward.
To my Pod, Iām sorry I couldnāt uphold my end and keep us alive!

What. A. Day. Thatās the main thing I can say about a day playing at Pinehurst No.3. If the yardage has turned you away before, donāt let it. Itās a delightful walk and will test every bit of your short game. And the par 3s are legit, so almost every club in the bag will without a doubt be used.
A big thank you to @BrooklynAJ for having me at Pinehurst for our Sweet 16 match. I definitely got a lucky draw for the bracket. He is an absolute pleasure to play with and was without a doubt hyping me up more than himself in the middle of competition.
Referees for our match were @bmasters and @Are_you_double_D. They can attest that there was no scummy actions, cheating, or lies; just plenty of rolled ankles, IPAs, and @bmasters absolutely BULLYING his way around and turning Donnie over in his grave.
Now on to the match for Andy vs myself. I was popping on holes 3 and 10. Mid 80s, stiff breeze, little shit from the guy in the starters box over bringing my own push cart, and weāre on our way.
Hole 1 - Par 4
Andy pulls it left into the pine needles, I put it left side of the fairway. Andy GIR but leaves a full green length putt: 3 putts. I have about 15 feet from just off the back edge. Cozy it up, hole won. Me 1up.
Hole 2 - Par 3
Andy and I both match eachother landing on the front edge to a back pin. We match eachother with 3 putts. I remain 1up.
Hole 3 - Par 4
Fairway for both. Andy leaves it short, I go long. Neither of us get up and down and finish out bogeys, but Iām popping so we go 2up. Will we golf our ball or pillow fight? On to the nextā¦
Hole 4 - Par 3
So much happens on the back 9 that I legit almost forgot this happened until I began my writeup. I place one about 25 feet beyond the hole. Andy steps up to the 140 yard hole and hits it exactly 140 yards. It hit the absolute bottom of the pin and careened off the front of the green. For a split-second I was thinking about all of the post-round beers at The Deuce, but not to be. Hell of a shot. Andy gets up and down, I 2 putt and remain 2up.
Hole 5 - Par 4
Andy and I are almost side by side in the fairway. I send one over the back, Andy hits the green. I stab my ball around a few times and eventually give Andy the hole. Back to 1up.
Hole 6 - Par 3
We both miss right and chip within 15 feet to a back pin. I miss my putt, Andy makes his, all square.
Hole 7 - Par 4
I catch some limbs on the left, Andy hits the fairway. I go long and Andy is on the front. I donāt get up and down and Andy takes it with a par. Andy 1up.
Hole 8 - Par 3
Andy within 10 feet and just misses the birdie putt. Iām just off the front edge and get up and down. Andy remains 1up.
Hole 9 - Par 4
Fairways, GIR, both miss 20 footers, make the turn with Andy 1up.
Hole 10 - Par 4
Andy sends one OB right and has to play a second drive, then puts what would be his 4th shot on the green. I hit the fairway, GIR, tap it close, putt conceded and back to all square.
Hole 11 - Par 5
This is where the action begins to ramp up. Andy and I both hit the fairway and lay up (sorry) short of the green. I fly my third over the back into what @Are_you_double_D would call a āsoft boiledā egg as it sat down a bit in the fluffy sand. Andy puts it on and 2 putts, I canāt get up and down, Andy 1up.
Hole 12 - Par 3
200 yards up the hill, playing probably 215. Andy stripes a shot onto the back edge, and I follow it by sticking one to about 8 feet. Sunk the putt and back to all square. (Whats so hard about this hole @djpie?)
Hole 13 - Par 5
A short 5, Andy and I sitting around 190 out. Andy proceeds to knock one to about 20 ft and I stick one to ~12 ft. Andyās putt slides by, I jar mine for the Big Bird, we are golfing our ball, and we are on to the next 1up.
Hole 14 - Par 3
The fireworks absolutely continue on this 190 yd par 3, but not from me. I cold top one halfway there, Andy hits the green and proceeds to sink his birdie from 25 ft to take the hole and square the match.
Hole 15 - Par 4
I find the fairway, Andy finds the waste area. We both hit the green, both 2 putt, and itās on to 16 all square.
This is the point in the match where Andy and I realize we didnāt have a tiebreaker set. We settle on a Thistle Dhu tiebreaker. And this is the point when Andy is for sure thinking about the post-round fish tacos and beer and absolutely wants no business playing any more golf after the 18th.
Hole 16 - Par 4
Both in the fairway, I thin one over the back of the green and Andy is GIR. I hit a bump and run from the pine needles with a little too much run. The putt for par JUST slides by the right edge. Andy comfortably in for par and 1up.
Hole 17 - Par 4
As the ball leaves my driver face Iām immediately thinking about which Audiās windshield itās going to be through in the condo parking lot. No loud noises, OB and re-tee. Andy absolutely bombs one to about 60 yards out and the final music begins to play. GIR for Andy, easy 2 putt and the match is over.
@BrooklynAJ wins 2&1 and heads on to the Elite 8.
Food and beers post round behind the 18th of No.2 with some @Are_you_double_D stories was a great cap to the day. I canāt wait to be back in the area for Vibestock in a month. Good luck the rest of the way @BrooklynAJ. Someone help convince my wife to move hereā¦

An awesome day.
The stretch from 12-14 was so good. That birdie on 12 is the first Iāve ever seen and Iāve played that hole a lot. Everyone go back and watch the Tourist Sauce episode if youāve forgotten. The big bird on 13 to take out my birdie - awesome.
I was lucky to pull it out after that.
Great fun. Have an awesome time on your honeymoon.

@janthon8 and I made it out to Rocky River Golf Club for a Labor Day Sweet 16 showdown. We were honored to have @anon29849602 and @bmasters join us for the day. Super comfy pairing as Iāve played a few rounds with each and itās always been a pleasure. What wasnāt so comfy was my new found mid/maybe lowish cap found me only getting 1 stroke this go around. JA and I came out of the same pod and when we played previously I was getting 5 on my home course. Getting 1 from JA at a course I havenāt played in a couple years was not encouraging.
Edit - Shit, this got wordy. TL/DR at bottom.
The day started with Naner providing Biscuitville on the range, pure class! I believe this was his first rodeo with Bāville and the takes were of high praise. Something about the Bojangles and Cook Out evangelists can GTFOH.
Rocky River Golf Club, Concord, NC in the shadow of the Speedway. We decided on the one up Green tees which gave me 1 shot.
#1 422yd Par 4 - Wasnāt thrilled to see our tee was all the way back today. Both find fairway, but JA is a good 40yds ahead of me. (This will be the only time I mention the distance gap that occurred for the remainder of the day) We both missed the green but I was able to chip it to a foot and win with par. +1
#2 416yd Par 4 - Iām getting my lone stroke here so donāt fuck it up. I try to give it away with a somewhat topped heel cut that goes under 200yd in to the left rough. After hitting a pop flare hybrid 20 yds short of green my ankle is on fire. Turns out I stepped in a fire ant nest and there was no help our sympathy from Rules officials Naner nor Masters. I think somebody muttered Bryson under their breath. Iām not sure if Iām allergic so decide the best course of treatment will be IPAs. We both get up and down to save par but my stroke gives me the win. +2
#3 509yd Par 5 - JA bombs one up the left on an aggressive line and shortens up the hole leaving him with a shirt iron in hand. I find the green side bunker in 2. JA has tree trouble but proves to be no problem as he launches a high drawing perfect shot to middle of green. Two putt birdie takes the hole for JA. +1
#4 332 yd Par 4 - JA hits his missile 2 iron around the corner and has nothing left. I dodge a bullet and we halve the hole with pars. +1
#5 165yd Par 3 - A new tee box since the last time I was here makes for a much better angle. I find the green while JA is in left hazard but somewhat hittable. Saves bogey but I manage to 2 putt for the par. +2
#6 389yd Par 4 - I hit fairway and green to about 25 feet. JA is in fairway bunker up against lip and I make the match play mistake of feeling good about my chances. He hits the sickest, highest approach that comes down soft like the OhNo bird to about 6 feet. Cashes the birdie to win. +1
Iād be remiss to not mention the approach shot here by Naner. As soon as contact was made, a primal grunt of pleasure was let go as he knew it was gonna be good. How it didnāt go in defied logic but he was left with 4ft and also cashed the bird. He later stated it quite possibly was the best feeling iron shot heās ever hit!
#7 341yd Par 4 - Both hit fairway, I find green and JA goes long. Those that have played here know long can be dead and the tucked back pin was not in his favor. Back to back mental match play fail on my part had me winning the hole. JA hits a clutch chip to two feet. I give the putt and proceed to 3 putt. All square. Naner riding high from previous blade flush does it again here.
#8 378yd Par 4 - Do we have a rules controversy? We both hit it left. JA in native area, me on cart pathā¦.right in middle of cart path. I want relief on right side as itās basically fairway and left side is deep rough. I get not one but both Rules Officials Naner and Masters on the scene. I question if nearest point of relief is where my feet will be or where the ball will be after taking my stance. Clearly neither official has concerns for my kids college fund so they have me drop on the left. This is the right call since Iām a right handed. Luckily this side has a slope so 1st and 2nd drop roll to cart path and I can place. Official Naner was quick to aggressively and dramatically point at where I could place the ball. Hit the green in Reg and we carry on. But wait thereās more. My birdie putt defies gravity and somehow doesnāt drop. JA wants to concede but Official Masters runs in to declare the ball overhanging. There was some yelling about touching balls. I am neither a gentleman or have high class so I stretch the 10 second rule to the fullest. (No way this ball ever falls). Lots of laughs I win with par. +1
#9 379yd Par 4 - I snap driver in left trees. Save bogey but JA makes a great par putt. All square
At this point weāve halved 1 hole on the front and each won 4. Lots of action. Both are playing well carding a 37 and 38. Back nine should be epicā¦then the pillow fight breaks out.
#10 159yd Par 3 - No drama, I win with par. +1
#11 352yd Par 4 - I find fairway, JA left rough. Did I mention Iām always first to hit. Tug a wedge left. JA still looking for his ball. It has to be right there but we canāt find it. Approaching 3min JA starts jogging back to tee. Official Naner finds it just in time and weāre able to yell for him to come back. Out of breath he hits a great recovery over trees and winds up right with my approach. We both hit shitty chips, I manage to make a long par putt to go +2
#12 534yd Par 5 - Halve with bogey +2
#13 385yd Par 4 - Both FIR/GIR/3 putt and halve with bogey +2
#14 350yd Par 4 - I hit an awful duck hookish drive that narrowly clears the hazard but win the hole with a bogey. +3
#15 140yd Par 3 - Both hit green, have shitty first putts but save par. +3 with 3 to play
#16 352yd Par 4 - Both wind up left of green. JA hits a good chip to about 12 feet. Iām in fringe and canāt decide between putter and wedge. Wedge is the right play but Iām a mental midget and think I just need to two putt and I win. Pull the putter, donāt commit, sticky icky Bermuda and a yip stroke leaves me about 10 feet. JA buries the par, I burn the edge and we move on +2 with 2 to play.
#17 342yd Par 4 - Long walk to tee has me crumbling. I havenāt faired well on this hole in the past and Iāve already mentally lost 18 as itās a reachable par 5 for JA. I donāt watch anybodyās tee shot as I fumble about. Iām out of tees. I manage to find the fairway and exhale. Then I hear JA proclaim a provisional. I didnāt realize his first was offline. The provisional hooks in to woods left but the first should be findable. Iām well back and tug a wedge to left fringe then go help look for the first ball. No luck in the search and the concession is made with a 3&1 victory in my favor. An awkward do we fist bump or shake hands thing happens and weāre done.
#18 we get to go deep in to a few Naner shot factory options from about 100 yards. He lays out the choices and he executes flawlessly. A fun way to end the day.
All in all it was a great way to spend Labor Day. We didnāt set any speed records out there but the company was fantastic and was glad to tee it up with these 3 once again. Hope I can represent the Charlotte region well in the round of 8.
Side note, our very own @bmasters will be representing the CLC at the NLU Mixed Troubles this weekend. Heās signed up solo for the event eagerly awaiting to learn of his partner. Should any ladies attending be reading this youād do yourself a favor in teaming up. He hit several flush irons and bombs with the driver. If thereās a sports book opening up on this event, my money is on team Masters.
TL/DR - Fun day, tight competition on front, pillow fight on back, I won 3&1, Jared is a shot factory savant, Ben and his lady friend will win the Mixed Troubles.

Ok, so a little late to the party but Andrew B and I had our sweet 16 match on Labor Day at The River Course at River Landing. Shout out @JoeCostello for hosting and officiating.
The course was in amazing shape and the greens were ROOOOLLLLING!
Andrew and I chose to play the Blue tees, one up from the tips for the people counting at home, resulting in me giving him 12 shots. High of 90 with a slight northern breeze, perfect day for golf!
I was the victor 8 & 6. Andy struggled from the get go and reported playing one of his worst rounds. Out of respect and my hopes to play another round and drink some beers with him again soon there will be no write up of the match.
However, I will provide some content from the afternoon duel between @JoeCostello and myself. Played on the Landing Course from the tips at 7200 yards.
Hole 1- Par 4
A true handshake of a starterā¦ and by that I mean Joe conceded. Me 1 up.
Hole 2- Par 4
I hit 2 Iron under a tree, Joe smokes driver. Both of us hit wedges tight. Both miss epically. Comfy pars.
Hole 3- Par 5
Both hit semi skanky drives, both lay up short of water short of green. Joe plays a lovely wedge and makes par. I miss the green very off brand short of the green and fail to get up and down. Match even.
Hole 4- Par 4
Joe demolishes a drive cutting the corner to the left. I hit 2 iron straight out. Both play poor wedges to the green and make good 2 putts for par. Still tied.
Hole 5- Par 3
We pass our first group of the afternoon. Joe missed right into the hazard. I hit 20 feet behind the hole and make a long putt for birdie. Me 1 up.
Hole 6- Par 4
I hit the closest thing to a shank 2 iron and dont clear the gunge. Joe blasts driver to 80 yards out. With 240+ to the pin after a drop I concede the hole to keep things rolling. Joe promptly hits wedge left into the pond and make double, making me regret conceding. Match tied.
Hole 7- Par 3
We pass group 2 on the afternoon. Joe plays pin high right of the green from 225 yards. I decide shanks are fun and hit another one into the tall rough. Joe gets up and down like a pro for par, I make bogey. Joe 1 up.
Hole 8- Par 5
Joe goes right off the tee into a nasty lie in the rough forcing a lay up. I rip 2 iron down the middle. Group 3 of the day waves us threw. During the wave up I out of curiosity shoot the pin at 275 yards. Decide a 3 wood into the wind over water is absolutely the right play. Contact comes off clean and leaves me on the front left edge. Joe from his lay up spins a wedge back nearly holing it leaving 1 foot for the bird. My chip runs out to maybe 2 feet, we go good good for the matching birdies. Joe still 1 up.
Hole 9- Par 4
My least favorite hole on the entire property.
Joe hits driver right, I pop up a 3 wood. I pull 7 iron into the front left bunker. Joe hits it to 20 feet. Walking into the bunker I say āitās been a minute since I made a bunker shot.ā Joe laughs, I proceed to make said bunker shot. Joe is pissed. Joe barely misses birdie putt. Match back to tied, or so we thought. Joe actually got his one stroke here instead of 15 like we thought, more on that to come later.
Hole 10- Par 4
Another skanky 2 iron to the right, Joe blast yet another bomb down the middle. I miss left of the green on the second. Joe hits it to 15 feet. Standing in the bunker with the ball in the rough at my knees I chip to maybe 8-9 feet and make the par putt. Joe again is pissed, but make the professional 2 putt par. Still think the match is tied.
Hole 11- Par 3
I hit a 6 iron to the left edge of the green pin high. Joe missed left into a gnarly lie. Hacks it to the 15 feet and casually calls his shot as he makes the par putt. I leave my birdie chance super short and leave a 5 foot tester for the tie. Still think the match is tied.
Hole 12- Par 4
I hit yet another skanky 2 iron, Joe hits another bomb to the fairway. Yāall getting the theme yet. I miss left into the trees. Joe with a professional play of wedge to the middle of the green and 2 putt par for the win. We think he is 1 up.
Hole 13- Par 5
Joe rips another bomb down the left fairway. I pull hook his driver, yes his driver, my new one still hasnt come from callaway, into the deep shit short and left. CUE THE VIDEO JOE.
I barely get out of the deep stuff and still cant reach the green. Joe tries a chippy cut 3 wood and misses WAY right into the trees. But manages to chip out and hit an all world wedge to 10 feet making the par putt to win the hole. Joe 2 up? we think?
Hole 14- Par 4
We both epically miss our tee balls right into the wilderness and decide on ārestartingā the hole. We both again epically miss our tee shots right into the wilderness. I somehow find mine, chip out and make bogey for the win. Joe 1 up, maybe?
Hole 15- Par 4
Check score card, nope not the #1 handicap hole. That was 9, Joe back to 2 up.
I smoke 2 iron way right into the lake. Joe hits it down the left rough. Easy wedge short and comfy par. Joe Dormie.
Hole 16- Par 3
Pass 4th group of the day, shout out to the etiquette of the members of River Landing. I decide to press cause well why not. Joe misses short left from 215 yards. I hit a beauty 5 iron catching the ridge on the green and running it to about 10 feet. Comfy 2 putt. Still Dormie in the match but up on the press.
Hole 17- Par 5
Joe presses me back. I hit driver low left into the trees, Joe splits the fairway with a bomb. My punch out goes way right. Joe rips a high 3 wood draw to the front edge of the green. I slap the ball around some more. Joe smelling blood and the victory hit a great chip that falls into the hole for the big bird EAGLE! Match over!
Hole 18- Par 4
Joe now decides to hit a bad drive OB, I hit 3 wood right and come up short of the green with a wedge from a brutal lie in the rough. Joeās provisional splits the fairway to 80 out on the long par 4. He hits wedge to 10 feet and makes the mega 5 for bogey. I fail to get up and down. Meaning he also won one press and tied the other. Tyler loses all the money.
TL/DR: It was a great Labor Day at River Landing. Enjoyed meeting and shooting the shit with Andrew B, hope we can play again soon.
Looking forward to seeing who I end up against in the round of 8, either @ColoniusFunk or @pmgolf123.

Awesome write up Tyler!! A great day no doubt! Sure wished I could have joined but the schedule didnāt work out this time. Coastal Pod is still going strong!
Sounds like Andrew had the same kinda round I had against @pluds26 lol. Really only worth writing up about his golf that day lol. That is golf thoughā¦
Right, after some time for reflection, I think I can attempt to do justice to the Ro16 matchup between @RDUgolfer (henceforth known as RDU) and myself. We agreed to play at Bermuda Run, where RDU Golfer Sr. would host us - and it needs to be said now, that man is an absolute STUD.
My journey to the course was fraught with danger. The previous two days had not been easy on me, my stomach, or the plumbing of my apartment. I wonāt share anymore at the request of @grizzly224.
I had seen BR a couple of times previously so at least I wasnāt going in blind. We started on 10 where I hit one of only 2 good drivers all day, while RDU found some trouble down the left. I won the hole with a very straight-forward par, the only highlight being the 200 yard run back to the tee when I realised Iād dropped my glove. We halved the next couple of holes before things took a turn & RDU quickly flipped it after winning the 14th and 15th. The man was putting lights out, and he finished the day with 26 putts! I, on the other hand, am used to putting on much slower bent grass greens and was shaking like a shitting dog over every putt I had. They all seemed to be downhill! RDU won the par 5 17th after my 3 wood approach took a very abrupt left turn & potentially killed someone in their back yard. It was at this point that RDU had to perform some emergency taping on one of his ankles, a bad review of his Adidas golf shoes indeed. We halved the 18th in par and made the turn with RDU 2-Up.
The handshake 1st hole was halved in bogey, very classy. 2nd was halved, RDUās net par to my gross par after I holed a good uphill putt. RDU pointed out after the fact that we actually both holed our fair share of 8-10 footers for par - much less of a pillow fight than we originally felt. Similar story on the 3rd, RDU got up and down from short of the green after holing a tough par putt, and I followed him in a similar fashion. I won the par 5 4th hole with par, but very quickly lost the 5th to a good par from RDU. Staring at the final 4 holes knowing I needed to win at least 3 of them had me feeling similar to my aforementioned journey - puckered.
The 6th at BR is a tough par 5 that we halved in par, before reaching a short dogleg right par 4. RDU split the fairway with a crisp fairway wood, I pulled driver attempting to get aggressive and go over the trees. A quick, low, pull ensued. I took out my frustration on my bag, later finding out I destroyed my other rangefinder lense/scope. My ball got caught up in the rough and so wasnāt in terrible trouble. I hit my approach over the green, RDU hit his to the front of the green. I played quite a delicate pitch to about 5/6ft, RDU coming up the slope left his putt about 9ft or so short. RDU didnāt make the par attempt, and I made mine. 1 down going into our 17th hole. The 8th is a tough par 3 over water and playing into the wind, so I tried to flight a 7 iron into it. As soon as I hit, I thought it might go in. RDU shared my feelings. The ball barely carried the water and ended up short of the green in the rough. RDU hit his shot pin-high left but off the green & in the rough. He hit his chip with some bravado, and his ball rolled out to 8 or 9ft. I hit mine to below the hole, about 6 or 7ft. RDU did not make his par putt, and I rolled mine in. We head to the last all tied up. I pulled 3 wood, I was not getting along with my driver at this point, and hit a low bullet to the middle of the fairway. RDU pulled driver and it flared right, flirting with some trouble. I wasnāt sure just how much trouble, but he was pretty confident it could be OB. A provisional was hammered down the right side of the fairway. RDUās first ball was indeed OB, and the scales tipped in my direction. I hit a knockdown wedge to about 6ft, and RDU hit his short of the hole about 12ft. RDU conceded as we got to the green, a proper gent. This was the toughest match Iāve had to date, I was totally spent for the following 24 hours.
FINAL SCORE - JamesHCard (and Europe) wins 1 Up.
One last, very important, note. @RDUgolfer has the BEST golf playlist I have listened to so far, 10/10.
