Or on the way just north of Montgomery in Prattville you could play the RTJ courses there, Capitol Hill. All of the RTJ courses are worth playing if you have time.

Florida got beat by Baylor Saturday



Was a good game that the Bears won by 6. Not a surprising result, preseason rankings mean nothing.
meh, just another halftime I won't be watching.....seems to be the norm these days.

It appears that Portland squeezes most of their minority students into the much smaller Jefferson High.


Might be the demographics in the area of each school is very different. Sure is a big discrepancy in enrollment sizes for two inner city schools.

re: Who prefers spikeless shoes?

Love my spikeless Foot Joys and Skechers. If it's really wet and muddy I wear a pair of Foot Joys that have the spikes. Haven't had any big slipping problem with spikeless.
BYU fans are very nice. They even pass ice cream out to the visitors section during the game. It's refreshing to go to a game and not have drunks yelling obscenities throughout and puking all over.

Destrehan 35. Hahnville 14 final. Too many turnovers for the Tigers.

End of 1. Hahnville-Destrehan tied at 0. Sloppy offenses, 4 interceptions already

everyone should have to do this at regular intervals because the amount of younger drivers texting and driving like idiots far out numbers the old lady in the big Buick.
Aranda isn't running the defense (which has been much improved despite several injuries). Joe Klanderman is the DC running the show, he was the Kansas State DC for several years.

In shocking news Aranda actually was seen yelling and fist pumping on the sidelines this year.....even a let's fricking go during the Arizona State game. :lol:

If the three wood is as good as you say, hit it off the every tee.


I did this playing in a scramble last week. Keep pushing the driver on the first few holes, pulled 3 wood on a medium length par 4 (at my age is there such a thing?) and was dead center. Used it the rest of the day. Somedays its a better option. :dunno:

The 8 iron already in your bag can probably hit all the same shots as a separate chipper club.


This is great advice, very easy to do just bump it on and let it roll like a putt.

re: Home Course Slope Rating ?

Posted by double d on 10/5/26 at 10:51 am to
My local course is 71.5 and 121 slope, neighborhood course with plenty of water but not very long at 6600 from the blues.
7 minutes till half, Hahnville 25. HL Bourgeois 3.

Good move to play tonight considering its homecoming, court won’t have to deal with bad weather.

Oops, now 31-3, 6:40 till half

From what I read they didn’t cancel their games at all. Just moved their home games to the visitor's stadiums.

Someone in another thread alluded to them not having bleachers on the visitor's side of their stadium but I can't confirm that.

It seems to me that the school's biggest mistake overall was scheduling Carrol in the first place.


Just checked Google Earth and it looks like Assumption only has a nice grandstand on one side of the field and nothing on the visitors side. Did not know that, it looks fairly new.

Back in the 70's when we played baseball there (they were in the River Parish/Lafourche district then) their fans threw bottles at our bus when we were leaving.
