All right, you Snow Birds! Especially all you Northern Lurkers who have been waiting for the right moment to deliver your Best Shot. We need some Best Storm of '05 stories from you!

So far, Jim Cook is Leader in The Clubhouse (Lounge) with the tale of his orange ball disappearing after only 'Three feet into the Whiteout Void.' In a close second is swingeasttowest who is now mid-way through the coming best-seller from Golf Digest: What You Can Learn About Your Left Hand Low Putting Stroke While Shoveling Snow. And Martee, who is technically disqualified because he doesn't have any snow -- just cold and wind chill -- is a distant third because he only observed the Golf Nuts going at it in 35 degree temps on his way to the grocery store. Lame, Martee: Those guys needed a 4th! I would add that 6b gets an 'in arrears' Honorable Mention for yesterday's post alluding to driveway snow shoveling, even though he is now on his couch enjoying ex-officio Ale Status pending tonight's Big Game.

Best story will be determined by a poll and will win some future as-yet-to-be-determined favor from this site.

Gentlemen....

Start your engines!
