re: Anyone got any updates on the Bluffs
Posted by BonesMalone on 4/19/24 at 12:56 pm
“…but if The Bluffs was open and in the same condition, I'd drive the extra 15 minutes.“
….and there’s the whole issue with the place. It’s a monster of a layout with a lot of issues for maintenance and not a steady stream of revenue to keep afloat.
You’d drive an extra 15 minutes, but how of...

Was there a good amount of Poa on the greens this winter?
Just wondering, because if there was….and really nothing kills Poa because of resistance, Roundup might have been used at a low dose.
Desperate times….and they went a little strong?...
re: 290 rounds played at the Masters this year, only 1 scored above 82, yet they praise Tiger
Posted by BonesMalone on 4/15/24 at 7:44 pm
Tiger moves the needle. You can question him, laugh at him, make fun of his current game, etc….
But when he plays, people watch. And the PGA needs viewers. If he would of played Bay Hill (and made it 4 rounds) ratings would soar.
If you’re a player on the tour, any tour, you want him teeing up...

So you want it to be a casino course, which isn’t happening in the Feliciana hills….or a course owned with very deep pockets from a local industry.
The casino course loses its arse off, but is balanced by the casino. And the deep pockets is just losing its arse off with the deep pockets covering ...

What courses are you referring to for middle of nowhere MS?
And come on, Fairhope is not in BFE.
St Francisville kinda is….and the Bluffs ain’t close to St Francisville....

It had closed for the first time by then.
The owner of Carter had purchased it for a lot less than it was worth and was looking to flip it. It was in steady condition, but they weren’t putting the resources in it like when it was getting highly acclaimed. ...

The course opened in ‘88. It’s prominent days were 05-08. That’s a 3 year run spending money they didn’t have.
The dream everyone wants it to be is just way too much for what actually can be accomplished.
Simplify the course, enjoy the terrain and concentrate on the greens. That’s all that can be ...

There’s no clearing that has to be done…..but the ground has to be reworked since it’s been let go for so long. That’s expensive.
It’s a complete renovation project, which probably is a ton of money now.
If someone wants to restore it to the original design (with 5 acres of greens and deep faced b...
re: What's Your #1 Film

It will always be Jaws.
I was fascinated and frightened of sharks as a kid. Nightmares galore and still watched it every time I had a chance.
But when I watched a behind the scenes of the movie and found out the whole premise of the movie broke before filming started, a new screenplay was winged t...
How much time do you think you lose when driving…..
Posted by BonesMalone on 2/27/24 at 4:36 pm
…..to everyone being on their phones. How many lights do you miss? How many cars cut in your lane while drivers are busy looking down at the phone?
When a light turns green and you pass the oncoming cars, I bet 2 out 3 drivers aren’t looking at the road....
Do you think there will come a time….
Posted by BonesMalone on 12/17/23 at 10:20 am
….that being in the pro’s will stop being the dream of teenage athletes? With what kids have the ability to earn in college, 5 years could set you up for life.
Some highly rated prospects might see the college life as the peak and just coast through life from there.
Less wear and tear on the body...
Why do golfers put 2 wheels in the grass when they park their cart?
Posted by BonesMalone on 12/15/23 at 9:46 am
The cart path could be 10 feet wide. Or they could just be playing by themselves….
But golfers just have this instinct to pull half the cart in the grass.
For those that do this, and I assume it’s a majority….are you allergic to concrete? Can you not get your club unless you are firmly planted in ...

He should be with the team. Play?…..no reason to. But be there supporting the team....

Our defense was not good last year. It came together for a stretch. Hopefully we can duplicate that effort....
What was the narrative last year?
Posted by BonesMalone on 10/24/23 at 12:59 pm
We were coming in having been crushed by Tennessee, who beat Bama on a last second FG.
Our offense was way worse. Our defense finally came around in the 2nd half of Ole Miss.
Bama was ranked higher with a Heisman QB.
This year, our offense is worlds better, defense is a little worse. Bama is much...

He was my neighbor for 7 years.
Loved bbq, Coors Light, Marlboro Reds and Costa Rica.
I asked him one time why he rented and he said that at his old house people would bring him plants non stop to look at and it got too crazy!...
re: How is Webb Park looking these days?
Posted by BonesMalone on 9/19/23 at 5:16 pm
There’s only 2 ways it can go;
Either the course runs the golfer or the golfer runs the course.
For courses trying to keep their head above water (mostly semi-private clubs) the golfer has way too much pull, because they are desperately trying pull a profit.
Courses stay packed and slow and ma...

I’m not complaining about “brokies”
I called you broke cause you felt the need to throw insults.
I referred to golfers as “cheap”, as in expecting a great deal when the fact is there is nothing about this game that’s a “deal”.
Everything in the world has an increasing price tag, including the mai...
