  1. Thinking of the coming spring, a strong bloody mary in close reach, the smell of freshly mowed turf, walking to a great drive on a pristine fairway, sticking my irons shots right at the pin, draining those pesky 3 footers. Golf man, golf. :)

  2. Thanks Witchy...

    just working my way through this forum and seeing this.

    As for me, it was kind of hard to give up my MoscowBird name, but seeing as how I have flown back home now to the US, i could not see the sense in staying with it.

    As for my new name TinCup, goes back to when I was playing (at the time) on my "home" course in Argentina, the Buenos Aires Club. There is a par-4 hole with an island green on it and one day I drove out in great position to hit a pitch on to the green. Alas this was a day when my short game was not in my bag. First attempt to hit the green in regualation...splash. Dropped a ball to try again...splash. Third time is the charm, right? Nope...wet again. I drop my fourth ball and at this point my playing partners are suggesting I simply write the hole off and move on without losing any more balls. Nah. My fourth shopt lands the green but rolls off and into the wet stuff. I am looking skyward at this point and muttering some colorful language. I finally landed my 5th attempt. Ugly stuff but none were really bad shots. The nickname has stuck ever since. :D
