Clive & Uisce - Weather Watch 2.0
« on: November 30, 2007, 09:48:07 AM » |
|
UB's weather watch reminded me of my first trip to Bandon (our trips were done in March). Day one: 50° with 40mph winds and sideways rain. One of our group on 16th green I believe:  Days two and three: Low 60's with light (10-15mph) winds. Just beautiful. 16th tee with me on the left:  Enjoy boys! I am very envious. |

LMAO @ Clive & Uisce. It sounds like some sort of bad Odd Couple-like sitcom or Thelma & Louis-like road trip movie.

Thanks Fuzzy. Next year.  BTW, Bandon #16 is a seriously awesome hole. Interesting read on how it came to be in Dream Golf: The Making of Bandon Dunes. LMAO @ Clive & Uisce. It sounds like some sort of bad Odd Couple-like sitcom or Thelma & Louis-like road trip movie.
 Too funny. We have the cliffs (pun intended), we have the shockingly beautiful boy-toy (thank you very much) but alas we have no convertible. We'll have to make do falling into gorse bushes. Little Trip Down Memory Lane (Big pics so linked instead of inline. I'm too lazy to downsize.) #1 - Clive's Drive - Pacific #4. One of the best holes I've ever played. #2 - Pints and Fire - Good pints, good fire, extremely strange waitress. #3 - First Tee Jitters - Three pussies used pull carts. One man carried. You figure it out. #4 - Contest Over - This is how beautiful this place gets. It's a cathedral. #5 - Bandon Dunes #17 - You know how it is, biggest drive brings up the rear on approach. #6 - Game Over - After living with a guy for two days you let him touch you in familiar ways. |

Nice pics Uisce! Oddly enough as I was going through my photos I found a couple with me standing there with a bright shiny new white golf glove.  I was trying to think of my favorite hole (you're right - #4 at Pacific is incredible) but I couldn't. It is such a cool place to be a golfer. Good luck! |

I'm just frightened to think about how those two are keeping warm at night.... and who gets the 'dominant' position in the evenings spooning.

Define dominant. One man's treasure is another man's trash.

Define dominant. One man's treasure is another man's trash junk. Fixed.  Looking at "Game Over", I'm surprised to report that, three years later, I'll be wearing the same hat, rain jacket, rain pants, and golf shoes! My hands are a little higher on my follow-through now, but I've now got more grey hair and I'm uglier. |

NTTAWWT I think they're time travelers, man.  Look at how their clothes never seem to change in pictures over the years not to mention the fastidious attention to verb tense. I bet they've been sent back here to warn us about something, but not before squeezing in a few rounds first. http://www.golfhos.com/fo...85.msg27272.html#msg27272It's funny how guys dress in general, there are some guys where you can almost pinpoint the year when they decided to stop caring and just stick with a look and go with it and damn what everyone thinks.  |
