Tix are at your local Stop & Shop. >>L NONA have to do with Orlando Lake Nona?<< Yes,I have a hard time spelling Islesworth. Nice location in Otown near MCO, and 17 miles from WDW. Just too costly to live there.

Originally Posted By Lake Nona >>Have you played at River Highlands or seen the GHO?<< No, I have not played the TPC because of a bad back plus I know no one who is a member. I have seen the GHO now the Buick, which 2006 is the last year, local talk says that this event will be a Champions Tour event in 2007 not by Buick. >> P.S--Who won last week? Lake Nona or Isleworth? I couldn't keep up with the tourney<< Isleworth won the Tavistock Cup, plus the PGA Tour just signed a 3 year deal to continue the Tigerless Cup as he moves to Palm Bch County later this year.
Originally Posted By cape cod joe According to the Orlando Sentinel, I thought he had NOT decided to sell his Isleworth digs yet? If he does, NO Tigger, or no Tigger regardless? I can't believe NO GHO! I had forgotten that. I think of Hartford and I automatically still think of Sammy Davis Jr. of course.

How you hitting the new stix? I played back nine today! Beautiful> about 55 and slight breeze. Played great and I think I'm finding a clue. Had that right to left (10 yards) ball flight which WE ALL love so much.

Ridiculous as I just have to get the hang of the speed. I felt like Boom Boom yesterday with his 3 putt from 4 feet or so. See you on the practice green.

I got up, yelled at god.... and was instantly struck by lightning!!! Then, I got off the couch, turned off Caddy Shack and went to bed.

That's why this game is so insidious. You play your best and spend your whole life trying to emulate that play? DVC-- I had recurring nightmares-worse than your dream for decades that I couldn't even hit the ball> kinda like people's dreams that they're being chased and can't move their legs. Frustration dreams I call them. I like your 7 under dream. If I win the lottery, we're all so at Osprey!

At least we have Hilton Head this week in half hour but it's a big let down from Augusta. Our pro just came back from Naples and he was talking about being in the clubhouse last week at the Masters and a member here was on tv for 15 minutes doing a standup thing Murphy?/ I don't know him, but I told my pro to count me in next year to go.

I never could quite figure out how Opsrey Ridge my street, and Osprey Ridge the course, and Arvida and Disney all fit in together but I know there is a connection in there somewhere. Any ideas?
