Boys,

Haven't seen the short grass for a long, long, time, but...I'm giving it a whirl tomorrow in a competitive situation. Heck, I played last May and before that once in October of 2006, so why worry?? ? I remember laying out a similar scenario to Annikan Skywalker a few years ago, to which he replied, "if you know the alignments, you'll be fine". That day, bolstered by his words and accompanied by "the Bucket", I managed a fairly easy 68 on a really tough course. Well, tomorrow I'll take the alignments and my relatively untested "stack and tilt" pattern and see what happens. I'm fairly cynical that my lack of preparation can succeed, but I did get a visit from Bucket this week (purely business on his behalf...he was pimping employee insurance benefits, but as an aside, it quickly transitioned into a G.O.L.F discussion) so maybe the visit was an omen of good things to come.

Keep you posted,

EC
