Gary Pomichter replied to Richard Schmidt's discussion MImosa Hills modified tees and course ratings/slope - post your scores!"Rich,
I'm pretty sure you're using the LADIES slope and course rating and that you would have to adjust DOWN significantly from the mens rating used from the "hybrid" tees. As I remember there was a tee (gold…"

As Captain, I want this to be a true open championship with winners in gross and net in all 3 divisions."

Broken shaft
Might have hit 20 balls (35 and 50 compression) with my mashie and the shaft is cracking. What do I do? Buy a new shaft from Louisville golf or rob peter to pay paul? I have another mashie by another club maker. I'd have to plug the pin hole and drill a new one if that is the case. Comments?...

Hello all and thank you for accepting me into this organization. I have just recently discovered and acquired some hickory golf clubs and have found a new spark for the game of golf with these. Looking for any information and direction as I am in the midst of putting together my first set. Any information and help would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to hopefully be involved in future events and getting to know some of you.

Thanks

An anvil too soon silenced. My son Evan died today. The son any parent would wish for, the husband and father too good to be true, the dedicated farrier all horses dream of, went out to work around his new farm and for no apparent reason just died.
To lose a parent is to lose touch with…
