  1. Somewhere between Stowe and Jay Peak in VT
  2. I saw someone suggest greenskeepers cut holes shallower and leave cups sticking an inch out of the hole. That way flags don’t have to be removed and you don’t have to reach into the cup.
  3. Has he logged in at AmPol? I can't keep track of people over there with the name changes. If I remember correctly, he has or had leukemia, right? That's got to be close to the top of the list for immunity compromising conditions. Hope he is ok
  4. And what are the chances China is being 100% open and honest with their numbers?
  5. Supposed to be going to a Canadien’s game Thursday night for my son’s 16th birthday. Hope is still goes on. I’m a little apprehensive but have been washing my hands like a mofo. Of course try getting a 16 year old to take that seriously
  6. I’m still playing with the Mizuno MX-17s I bought over 10 years ago. I’ve tested some new ones on the course a couple of times and haven’t found any that I felt were so much better that I wanted to spend the money. I keep telling myself I’ll get new ones but I like my old ones.
  7. Other than your buddies that are better/more experienced mocking you, nothing wrong with that.
  8. I think you can get good deals on eBay. What level are you? If you are on the beginner end of things, look for cavity backed game improvement type irons. The better you get, the more feel you’ll be looking for. Go to a place like Dick’s that has a test area. Test some out and see what feels right for you.
  9. Yes, the stereotypical stoner culture. I've known so many of those guys through the years. I do realize its a stereotype and doesn't hold true for everyone. Almost everyone I know uses it to some degree. Of course I grew up in VT in the 70's and 80's, I'm hippied out. I'm not offended by it or don't think it should be legal. But I sometimes feel like proponents get a bit self righteous about it. It can be abused as much as any drug and I know that inhaling any type of smoke is bad for you.
  10. I don't think inhaling any type of smoke is good for you at all. That is why I never took all the people who so vociferously and aggressively tout the health benefits of marijuana seriously. With the advent of legalization and the growth of tinctures and edibles, I am more willing to listen to those arguments. Having said that, I've never been a huge pot fan. My biggest issue with pot is the culture that surrounds it. I agree with you Jerry. So many issues arise from over indulgence.
  11. Was up in the NEK today. Lots of snow at elevation. Beautiful day to be outside.
  12. Was rooting for Fleetwood. As soon as hit hit his second on 18 I knew it was wet.
  13. This at 2600’ on Stannard Mt. On clear days you get a nice view of Mt.Washington. Looked like 3’+ up there.
  14. Some more snow pics in the Glover/Craftsbury area.
  15. It wasn’t just the ski resorts that got buried. Any elevation above 1500’ in the Northern Greens got lit up. This is looking at Burke Mt. and somewhere else in Burke above Lake Willoughby.
  16. Firehose pointed at Alburg, VT, Chazy, NY and St. Armand, PQ
  17. On the heels of the WGC and the one that Tiger is hosting at Riviera. A lot of these guys don’t do 3 in a row anymore.
  18. I was out yesterday so I couldn't watch the tournament live. I was going to watch it on replay but as soon I heard he won I decided not to.
  19. Interesting piece on NWS participation in the 1980 Winter Olympics. https://vlab.ncep.noaa.gov/web/nws-heritage/-/no-snow-in-sight-the-nws-and-the-1980-olympic-winter-games
