In The Mud

Well the Mars Vs Venus, previously know as the Pig Open was held Sunday under pretty pig -like conditions. Lots of wet fairways and muddy areas to be sure. In fact we were allowed to use lift , clean and place (cheat). Now I don't know about the rest of you, but I think that is a pretty big advantage if you're from Mars. Needless to say the trophy remains in our locker room for another year. I won't say this win wasn't without some tense momments. OTR and I had to go to the last hole, and win it for a tie. It is really tough to give a total of 65 strokes and win. We were fortunate to hang and get the split. And, I heard one team did lose. Give the opponents credit. They came to play.

I walked around the #2 lake last evening and noted a couple of things. First, the lake level is up a bit after all the recent rain. Actually think I detected some water movement at the inlet pipe from #6. Second, it wasn't as wet as I expected. There is still water some water sitting around, but the wind does really help dry things out. Third, I only found one ball. I don't know what has happened but there haave been a lot fewer balls in the water or the pro shop ran a sale on retrievers. I can't imagine the quality of play has improved that much. Remember there is still time to lose a lot of balls.

Maybe we can play today. I know we are supposed to get showers, but none yet. Hope to see ya at the training table
