Old Fort golf

We ain't had no golfin in a while on this here blog , so here you go. We took a break from Smyrna and went to Old Fort In Murfreesboro today.This course is in great shape as it always is. The greens are fast as lightning though. The pro's love that , but I would rather be able to hit the ball. In the picture is David Sawyer hitting out of a fairway bunker on number 2. This hole has 4 bunkers and he managed to get into 3 of them. Now Dave hit his drive about 40 yards farther than the rest of us and I think got a hell of a penalty for a good drive. He still managed to double the hole which I thought was damn good.

After all that Dave still kicked our ass. He ended up with a 45 , I had a 49 , Henry shot 50 and Charles had a 52. An 8 on number 4 took me out of contention , other than that I played alright.

Bowling starts next Monday , I wonder what that will be like.

More Coyote creek

As promised Here is a short video of how not to cross a log. Now just so you will know Murray was the one who set this section up and swore it would be OK.

No riders , spectators , animals , logs , testicles or motorcycles were injured in this video. No alcohol , drugs , stupidity , brain farts or flat tires were involved at the time of this video. Please try this at home in case it don't work and a bunch of people see you get a Nubbie nomination.

Murray was fine and was only worried if Bob got a picture of the crash , but didn't know I got the video. Good job Murray on setting up a hell of a Trials.

Coyote Creek Trials

Barry and I just returned from the trials at Coyote Creek trials center in Monroe Nc. This was the first time that they held a ITSA twin shock trials on their property. Its not easy to lay out sections for the first time and make everyone happy and this was no exception. Some of the sections were a little harder than they should have been , but that is to be expected. We have also been to trials that were way to easy which really sucks. But having said that most of the competitors had a great time and no one was killed. Myself I thought it was great. Very challenging , but still fun. In the picture below is land owners (in Blue shirt) is Joe , wife Teresa and daughter Meredeth.
Some of the greatest people I've met in a long time. Very gracious hosts and just fun folks.
In this picture is our buddy Murry Gray who was the Trials master for his first time. I want to thank them for the great time and the entertainment factor. There will be some video to follow of these 2 riders that will explain the entertainment factor. Great week end. Almost illegal.
