TBD. My folks were down there a few weeks ago and said guests could only play a pieced together 13 holes from 2-3 different courses. No one allowed on Old White. That said, they were setting up the grandstands, planting the flowers, etc. and getting ready. The show will go on.

From what I've heard, it's pretty much a-okay, and should be good to go.

We're going down around the 14th-16th for our annual meeting, but are playing Meadows for our tournament.

Snow sled, you not amongst the field at the Greenbrier? Figured you were good to go, since you shot that 72 a few weeks ago, even if it was from the ladies tees. Governor JJ must not read this board, or else you would for sure be competing.

and the long game gets shorter with age....much shorter[banana]
My game has improved dramatically, all due to stop trying to be the man off the tee. Focusing on hitting it shorter off the tee, and keeping it in play, while working non-stop on the mid-irons. I'm probably scoring on average, 4-5 strokes better than the best couple of seasons. It's actually very difficult to stand on the tee, and not rip it as far as you possibly can. At the end of the day, it's still drive for show, putt for the dough.

I didn't have any choice...my body says "you ain't hitting it as far as you used to".....one thing that has helped is that I have loosened my grip on the club drastically
