PS Classic 2007

Another classic in the books. What a great time.

It's really a glory tour for the namesake. I haven't seen the official scores and totals, but PS won by about 10 strokes. Consistently good, all the way around. He even pulled it together on the back at Maumee Bay, when it looked like the wheels were about to come off after number 11.

Apparently, sand-bagging is an important element in The Classic. PS bemoaned his putting before and lamented his 3 putts, but he probably didn't have one until Stone Ridge and after 45 holes could count them on one hand.

Matt also tried to lay some beachwear before the first tee. Only played a couple of times this summer. Game not in good shape. Hacked up Butler National the Wednesday before The Classic. Then goes out and plays really well, finishing in second. I think garnered the most birdies. All while hitting an iron off the tee for the majority of The Classic.

I met with some difficulty at The Legacy. Started off ok, but the back nine still has gears and flywheels and shards of metal from the complete detonation of my game. Couldn't get it together, although was able to restore some semblance of respect at Maumee Bay. Doubt the delayed equipment change would have made any difference.

Got a chance to see Bart on Saturday night and had a great time. Really glad he made the trip in and met us for dinner and refreshment. War stories are funny.

As far as the after Classic meetings, it looks like the fourth round is going to stay and all seemed to enjoy Stone Ridge as a venue. Although, if that course becomes private, we'll have to start hunting for another venue and may have to abandon the Arthur Hills theme.

Good times, good times.
