This has been a story thats tumbling for a few years i believe. Still going. I honestly thought there was legal protection to SSSIā€™s.

Golf does like to sign its own death warrant.

Many golfers are just as thick as footy players.

on a lighter note, we have a small 9-hole course at our family-shared weekend place and have fit in a good number of beers (i mean rounds) playing it this year. Longest hole is 289y, shortest is 103y. Two short par4 and seven par3. All of the greens are pedestal, so sticking them can be tricky. the course is tougher than it looks but well kept for a small private course.

A few weekends ago, I got out on a quiet morning with just a few folks on the course. I donā€™t keep a score, I just keep a running +1/0/-1 tally in my head. At the last teebox, was still sitting at 0. Let me tell ya, that was one of the most nervous swings/chip/putt combination of shots Iā€™ve had in a very long time. Iā€™d never shot a par before on any kind of course, it was quite a good feeling.

Iā€™m usually a 10-15hcp so I was quite happy, especially using a throw-together set of clubs that we leave down there:

TM R7 Draw
TM Burner 3W
Mizuno MP60 3-PW
Vokey 58deg
Ping putter.

Beers were definitely tasty that night. :beers:
