Hi Guys,

here's my Rd 2 file, played with Randy and Charlie. It's not often I see you two spending so much time admiring the native wildlife in the trees. My putter got lost after the front nine so had to putt with my 3 wood for four holes. Then the group behind us returned it to me. Thank you lads.

Here also is a look at the scores and leaders for Rd 1. I reckon the average scores over four rounds will be interesting, depending on how we all handle the winds in Rd 3.

Cheers

Brad

First time for me _ever_ to play a foursome on here, loading up all of your round file with me. That was a blast! I left a couple of putts just barely short and let this round get away...

You guys played really well in this one and kept it exciting the whole way. Bradthedad was clutch on the home stretch.

Skeleton Glen is growing on me. Second time around, it felt a little more strategic than I remembered. I upgrade my rating to an 8 on this course.

I LOVE this game!

Hi Guys,

everybody has finished Rd 2, so here are the results.

Rd 3 could sort the men out from the boys.

Cheers

R3 and R4. Hole 15 got me again in R4. You'd think I would learn not to hit a power shot there on any stroke.

For your pleasure and enjoyment, here is my round 4 to play along with. The fog/rain makes for interesting visuals. The soft grounds from the rain definitely made things feel different and I gave too much respect at times, pulling up short of greens. I had a very scary moment in the Corner too...

And round 3. I played alongside Randy and Charlie. There were some moments of true glory, and we all had our moments of pain. I had one such unhappy moment right there at the end...

Hi Guys,

well, Rd 3 certainly was an adventure. I played with all three of you and there was absolutely no consistency in which holes we messed up. But mess up holes we did! I played like I had never played the game before and my putter deserted me yet again.

The one good thing is that after three rounds, all three competitions couldn't be closer. There is only 1/2 a shot separating first and second in Stroke, and in Handicap and Stableford we have two ties at the moment, with 3/4 of a shot separating the field in Handicap and 1/2 a point separating all of us in Stableford.

So, all to play for in Rd 4.

Congratulations to Tarheel for a clean sweep of victories in Rd 3.

Randy, you have the pleasure of selecting our next course and conditions.

Cheers

Brad
