Living the TGM adventure for fun and profit!

I had 4 pars with five GIR's.

I had four more pars and burnt five more edges and hit two pins sending the ball more than 10 feet`away each time. I shot an 86 and our club champ shot a 69! $10 more for the Minnesota Beer Fund!
What made it even more fun was the fact that champ was using Titelist Pro V1's and I was using Nike's cheapest ball, the "Mojo." (24 for $12) if I had made 2 putts of any length, we would've collected $30!

I have shot two under my hcp during the last two rounds.

It's ok, but I need to overcome one big problem. I am hooking my short irons like crazy and have started to rely on pp #4 sending it straight up on the downswing to keep my line. It was 100 degrees F. here today, and I was carrying my 9 iron over 140 yards!
