RMPS goes Leafing. And by Leafing we mean Golfing. Cause the Leafs don't make the playoffs. So they

There are lots of tee times tomorrow afternoon at Highfields starting around 2:30. I'm just saying.

I regret to inform you all that I will not be going to the RMPS golf bash. Please send my condolences to all of your mothers.

I eagerly anticipate the articles talking about how my absence won't be missed because of my negative relative Corsi on Highfields and how PSK plays better when he's not in my foursome.

Any of you TERRIBLE golfers? I have no problem embarassing myself and losing 25 balls to drink beer and hang out. I just dont want to make the experience drag for people.

If you have clubs and can do the up and down motion to attempt to hit a golf ball, you're fine. Just keep a relatively decent pace, don't hit too many homes and you'll be fine.
 
Edit: By don't hit too many homes, I mean pray to the holy triumvirate of Bergeron, Chara and Rask that you don't hit any windows when you put a couple in a backyard.  Or you can pray to your pagan gods of Krejci, Soderberg, Eriksson and the like if you prefer. We're accepting of most non-Andrew Alberts religions.

Yes. I don't finish most holes because my ball disappears.

Looks like the other 2 spots have been filled.. If I get bold and remember I will track the double-bogie train via swing-x-swing. Otherwise it is safe to assume that I shot a 79 and Nap shot a 78 and I bought him beers and onion rings.

That was a heck of a fun way to spend an afternoon. Much more productive than sitting I n an office. I highly encourage more teetimeitis days off and I hope it's contagious.

Started birdie-par. Then reality hit. Grabbed a few more pars though and I think another birdie. On a par 5 on the back I hit 4 shots total and took 2 penalties. Birdie net bogey? Something like that. My golf game in a nut shell. OGG had a nice day as well. Handful of pars and I think a bird. We both walked away with our dignity which is the important thing.

Cart girl had pounders of Yeungling which was a nice surprise.

Home and showered and have a cat curled up next to me. Thinking about maybe forcing down a couple fingers of bourbon. Not a bad day at all. And I didn't even have to use my ak.

Pounder? A barely even met her. 
 
I can say that the left rough of the course was in great shape.  I have no clue how the fairways were-  Nap and I were saying that it doesn't make any sense to pay for a round of golf and not take in all of the environment. Middle of the fairway and middle of the green is just too boring.

"Nap and I?" You know you are replying TO Nap right? How much did you have to drink?
 
Apparently not enough. I thought it was fairly evident that I was at first replying to Napkin's comment.  
 
Then I started a new paragraph, which indicated a new train of thought. That being the lack of fairways hit by me. I am sorry if said train got derailed on the way to you.

So apparently I have a work thing on July 20
 
Huzzah for awkward forced fun! Yay! Exactly what I want to do with a summer weekend day!
 
So... You guys are obviously still welcome to do it that day but I'm out. Would folks be agreeable to doing it July 26 or 27?

I just put a wood 5-wood in my bag. I am in full fap mode. Photos to come (of the club... not the fapping. That would make things weird here).

We still on for Saturday?
 
Realness/PSK/OGG would fill out a 4some (and a very handsome one at that). Anyone else around and interested?
 
Looks like 12:23 if 4 or anytime after 1:15 if more

As far as I know I'm done with trips and anything weekend related for the summer so whatever works with me.
 
I'd also be interested in another Friday afternoon session if people can skip out on work. OGG? You out there?

Right now it appears that there is a 12:05 for 4 open. However, they are also saying " We're sorry, we have been experiencing connectivity problems with our Internet tee time system since Thursday, July 31, 2014 at 7:32 AM ET", so I don't know how acccurate that is.   Damn IT people...
 
ETA - I am not stuck on playing there, if an alternative presents itself.

I just booked the 12:05 4some on Sunday Aug 3. That'll cover me, OGG, PSK, and ?? TSC?
 
There's a 2some available at 11:56 we can grab if we have more than 1 other person interested
 
We can always cancel if we need more and/or decide to go someplace else.
 
 
Also, I'm totally in for Fri if that still works for you OGG? Anyone else able to blow off work for a day/afternoon? (This would be 8/8)
