Re: Michelle Wie making a mistake teeing it up against men [snip] Although I don't deny it is easier to criticize Wie because she's a woman, I think you over state your case. The primary case against Wie is based in the fact that she continues to pursue competition in places where she doesn't particularly have "status". She's on the LPGA on exemptions (which are about

Re: Missing correctly [snip] [snip] There's a hole I play regularly (#12 at MetroWest, Orlando) that has a deviously sucker pin location. They stick the pin on the lower right side. All the traps are to the left. Water is to the left. A good drive has you coming in left to right. The lower right side will display a very short yardage. Folks go pin hunting on it all the

Re: Michael Vick In Prison For Fighting Dogs - KJ Choi Kills and Eats Dogs and He Leads The Open We have a cat that used to kill moles, rabbits, birds, and whatever it could get its paws on. Most often for sport, because the cat would bring the dead animal back home. If our GSD got a hold of the dead animal it was consumed. The cat is old and doesn't go outside much any more because he will get his ass kicked by the young cats in the

Re: Michael Vick In Prison For Fighting Dogs - KJ Choi Kills and Eats Dogs and He Leads The Open A housecat is barely a predator. It's a domestic species with some of the genetic characteristics of its wild ancestors. My cat is very passive and wouldn't kill a mouse. Real, wild, predators don't kill for fun. Only humans do that. ______________________________ _____________________________ Bunk. Feral cats kill millions of songbirds and other animals every day.

Re: I'm breaking my silence for a while...................... The Bush Administration is desperately wishing for is a Republican administration to follow them, to cover their tracks. That is not likely to happen. The economy will be in real crisis by the end of the year and people will be wanting blood. Not just Democrats: there will be the millions upon millions of former Republicans smart enough to realize they

I got it before I got the car. I love the car. It's been my daily driver for the past couple of years. It feels strange to drive anything else.

Re: Missing correctly Most pro's and low handicappers will advise that one consider where they don't want to end up. This influences shot selection. Once the shot is selected, then the whole "visualize the shot" thing comes into play. "Taking the lake out of play" is a common strategy. I'm a 15 index and it's rare that I take 3-4 shots from

Re: Missing correctly [snip] [snip] This is very green dependent and is related to the strategy of not aiming for the green, most commonly in the form of laying up. Some greens are vastly more friendly in front and it is better to take the shorter club that will only actually reach the green with a "perfect" shot. Some are friendlier deep and will encourage

Re: Rules of Golf On Thu, 24 Jul 2008 11:32:29 GMT, John Reddy I haven't seen "dinning". The Internet spelling that gets me is "noone" for "no one" (Not Peter Noone). As well as the "Your right" and other apostrophe errors.

Re: Rules of Golf My dad was being treated in a hospital for high blood pressure. If I hadn't told them that he has abnormally low blood pressure then they wouldn't have noticed that they had already given him medicine to raise his blood pressure and that they should stop it. I think they would fit in fine with the rules committee.

Re: Michelle Wie making a mistake teeing it up against men I wonder if the men can continue to beat Michelle if they quit attacking her verbally.
