It was a slow round - several office hacks were out. Teed off at 3:00 and finshed at 7:45 - so it was 2.5 BPH.

I googled the consumption conversion tables and was able to determine:

.66 BPHole = 2.5 BPHour

Man this place was beautiful, it was a monestary before it became a country club. We rode around the course a bit to look at pictrure locations and the course seemed to be very well designed (Nickalaus). I hit some range balls...but that was about it. I was also able to run over to have a look at firestone where this weeks wgc bridgestone event will be held. It was cool to be there however I was more impressed with glenmoor. If you ever find yourself in canton, ohio i suggest checking it out-apparently this is the place where tiger and the rest of the guys stay and practice during the bridgestone.

Not too many courses better than Firestone South. Quite simple layout, yet a great test. If you aren't on your game, it will make you look like a hack.

Dynamite leaderboard in the WGC today.

Shaping up to be an entertaining watch this weekend...

Well, it is 97 degrees and there are approximately a billion cicada killers in my front yard, so I'm going to the package store and then to the course.

I have never hit the driver as well as I've hit it lately, didn't miss a fairway from the tee Tues ( can't remember the last time if ever I've done that ) only missed 3 in 27 holes today, the sad news is my scores haven't improved as much as they should have because suddenly I've lost my mid and long iron swing. I hit a couple of 4 irons so left of target today it was pitiful, I mean I hit'em more left than Al Franken, damn game beats all don't it ?

that's why no one is ever satisfied with the game-it just keeps pushing you for more.

Going back for more in the morning, got to get rid of the pulls with the irons.

Played in a boys and girls club scramble yesterday and was miserable..
I can only remember one other time playing in hotter weather, and that was a time in Vegas...

The last 4 holes, we went 2 over, in a freakin scramble...

We started off like gang busters we were 3 under after 2, an Eagle on our opening Par 5had us feeling good, then reality and the heat set in

Played a good front yesterday, followed by a horrible back. The driver, she gets wild on the weekends.

playing a local links style course that I've never played Friday and then a 4 man best ball tourney Saturday. Hard to take 4 man best ball serious, but it will be the first time all year I've been able to play on back to back days. Really looking forward to it.

is it best ball format or scramble? at least in best ball you play the hole.
