….introducing the ‘clothes horse’…

This is my friend Ron, we’ve been friends for the better part of 20 years. Most of the time we’re together these days, we’re on golfing trips with friends. This photo was taken in Newcastle Village in Northern Ireland. Here’s the point, when I travel, I pack light, just enough clothes to last the trip. When Ron travels, he’s prepared for any occasion, it’s why I call him ‘the clothes horse‘. If you view the video below you’ll see why!

…..packing away my scorecards….

….from my recent trip to Northern Ireland. What a time! I thought I’d post the scores (they were not great, though, when you go on a trip like this, score becomes less important. I think by my third trip back I’ll calm down enough to put up better scores!). Scores are in order of courses played:

(all scores net based on 9 handicap index)

Royal Portrush Golf Club (Dunluce Links)-83

Ballyliffin Golf Club (Glashedy Links)-82

Portstewart Golf Club (Strand Course)-86

Castlerock Golf Club (Mussenden Links)-87

The Royal County Down Golf Club (Championship Links)-84

Ardglass Golf Club-80

The Royal County Down Golf Club (Championship Links)-80

Good Weather..LUCK!! Round Review

Duck Hollow Uniontown, Pa.

Duck Hollow Golf Course Uniontown, Pa.

Got a last minute call from my weekend golf crazies (see, there was snow on the ground at the house) to play in West Virginia, but, by the time everyone (cept me, cause I’m a loner) was loaded and driving in the car, they had changed their minds and opted for a place called Duck Hollow in Uniontown.
