Lucky Lefty emerged triumphant, On Aug 28, 2009, at 3:53 PM, "Nathaniel Curry

It had been almost three years since the Golfers Gone Wild Tour last made a trip to Longwood Golf Course in Crete. Seven members of the GGW took on the competition from the 6001 yard, 119 slope rated, par 70 course on Saturday, August 22.

The first foursome teed off at 9:35 am, five and a half hours later, the final player walked into the clubhouse. Gentlemen, Golf does not take this long. The course was not especially long, difficult or crowded. Our scores were not exceptionally high. The weather was not a factor. Actually, no one in the GGW had a good explanation.

But after this long day at Longwood, Lucky Lefty emerged triumphant. Lefty, who shot a net 71, bested The TaylorMade Kid by a fraction of a stroke. For Lucky Lefty, this was his fifth win of the season. He is now tied with TaylorMade Kid for most wins this year.

All but one of the other players were just as competitive. Cadillac Blue came in third with a net 72, Quick Draw placed four th with net 74. Rifleman shot a net 74 and Double D 75. However, Country Strong followed up a win last week with a last place showing this week, finishing with a 82 net.

Match Play also saw two tight duels. Miller and Taylor locked in fierce competition the entire day. True to his name, Lucky Lefty, begun the match with a 25 foot putt to halve the first hole, then took as much as a three hole lead early before finishing off The Kid on #17, 3&1. Longwood becomes the first venue where the TaylorMade Kid met his match. Even though he is now 7-1, Taylor remains the No. 1 contender for the Match Play Championship.

Though lacking the reality show drama, but just as competitive was the match between Cadillac Blue and Double D. Never more than 2 up or down all day for any player, Cadillac needed to make a key par on #18 to conclude All Square with Double D.

Skins were competitive as well. Every player won at least one. TaylorMade Kid led the way with six. Country Strong and Double D each had three, Rifleman and Cadillac Blue had two. Quick Draw won 1 skin despite missing=2 0an eagle putt on #5 and watching Country Strong push his birdie. Though Miller walked away with the win, everybody walked away in the Money.

GGW had a competitive but long day at Longwood Golf Course. Whether it stays in the rotation or not is still to be decided. Next week, we take on a rotation mainstay, Balmoral Woods. This is a course that is both long and difficult. But still, it can’t possibly take longer to play than Longwood. So be there.

P.S. Beating better than 2 to 1 odds, The TaylorMade Kid did NOT punch out the Longwood Pro Shop attendant, so certain GGW members can settle their bets.

Subject: Event No. 19: Three Cheers for Country Strong's Third Win By Nate

Golfers Gone Wild Tour resumed on Saturday at the Meadows Golf Club in Blue Island, Illinois.
Last week’s play was disqualified as the event fell three (3) golfers short of the necessary quorum.

After the week’s hiatus for vacations and personal time, GGW had three 3-somes tee off on the familiar south suburban links style course. The Meadows which lays out at 6549 yards, par 71 with a slope of 121 has three distinct characteristics. A third of the course is separated by 123rd street; water hazards came into play on only three holes; and it featured three ice cold pitchers of Blue Moon Beer.

On that hot day, with that cold Beer, GGW gave out Three Cheers to the winner of the event, Country Strong. Ron Wynne, winding up a three week summer vacation, continued his strong, steady play and shot a net 68 to record his third win of the season.

Country Strong, who GGW suspect plays at least three times a week, was dominant from the outset, shooting a 41 on the front side. Silent Assassin, returning from his own vacation in the Bahamas was an early challenger, pushing several holes with pars. Sam finished with net 70.

Three players, Way Cool, Cadillac Blue and Double D, one tortured soul in each 3 some, threatened to become official triple bogey golfers. Those three along with Hawk were shut out.

Quick Draw captured third place money with a 73 net. Perry, with his usual strategy, began playing for skins and finished in the skins money, too. Quick Draw won 6 skins with a key par on #6 and another on #16. Kappatain Styles won 2 skins with a near birdie on par 5, #15. Country Strong won 1 skin with first of six front side pars on #1.
However, the skins leader on the day was Lucky Lefty. Lefty had a tour win and 9 skins taken away last week by the commissioner. But, Miller, taking his time on the greens and playing minimal mistake golf, made key pars on #13 and #18, to win all 9 back this week. Lucky Lefty re-takes the Tour lead in skins with 54. May we suggest a nickname change from LL to “Chris Consistency”?

Match Play Competition continued at The Meadows. Ironically, three matches were played.

Silent Assassin (-2) tripped up Double D, 3 & 1. Hawk(-1) thrashed Way Cool, 3 & 2. And, finding himself quickly down three holes early, Quick Draw (-4) could never quite get over the top on Country Strong, who won 2 up.

GGW Season is about two-thirds of the way done. Next week, we take on Longwood Golf Course in Crete. Look for details from the Tournament Director. Few players are still alive in the Match Play Competition. TaylorMade Kid is well ahead and still undefeated. Lucky Lefty extended his points lead and took over the skins lead.

But with his third triumph of the year, Country Strong becomes the third triple threat, challenging those two and seeking season ending trophies for leads in Points, Skins and as overall GGW Player-Of-The Year.

Event No. 18: Lefty Wins Again With Home Course Advantage

* Posted by Nate on August 11, 2009 at 3:03pm in GGW Report (Change)

Only four (4) golfers made the cut for the mini championship held at University Golf Club this past Saturday. Lucky Lefty, Quick Draw, Double D, and Hawk all showed up for the event.

Several of the GGW were out-of-pocket for the weekend. Rifleman had a birthday planned for his honor. Way Cool took a family vacation with his wife, two sons and 14 golf clubs. Cadillac Blue traveled to New Orleans. TaylorMade Kid was in Dallas. Country Strong and The Gambler must have had bigger stakes to play for. Silent Assassin was still allegedly on the PUP (physically unable to perform) list. Medicine Man, Grade A and Kappatain Styles were just missing in action. GGW suspects they were too cool to play in 98 degree humidity.

This left the field clear for Lucky Lefty to win for the 5th time this year and second time on his “home away from home” golf course.

It was a hot day, but Lucky Lefty weathered the heat and took 1st place shooting a scratch 88, net 68.2. Miller nudged 2nd place winner, Quick Draw who shot 93, net 68.9. Double D came in a close 3rd with a 95 scratch and a net 69.2. Hawk finished 4th with a scratch score of 100 and a net 72.2.

Lucky Lefty won 9 skins, Quick Draw 5 Skins, and Double D 4 skins.

Highlight of the day – On #15, Quick Draw pulls out an 8 iron from 168 yards away and sticks it 1 foot from the hole on his second shot. Lucky Lefty also pulls out his 8 from 150 and drops it within 12 feet. Quick Draw comes to the green grinning from ear to ear, assuming he would win with a for sure Birdie. Lucky Lefty putts first and drains it. Quick Draw taps in for birdie and push of the hole and their match.

That was one of two hard fought matches played in the GGW Match Play Competition. Both matches finished with the winners just 1 up.

Quick Draw defeated Lucky Lefty and Hawk took out Double D. After suffering their third losses each, both DD and LL are now eliminated and neither can win title to the 2009 Match Play Championship.

Pay out was as follows:
Lucky Lefty $20 1st Place - $18 for 9 skins for a total of $38
Quick Draw $14 2nd place - $10 for 5 skins for a total of $24
Double D $6 3rd place - $ 8 for 4 skins for a total of $14
Hawk Shutout (though $20 donation was appreciated)

Next week, the GGW regulars will not have flimsy excuses like birthday celebrations, out-of-town travel, family commitments or vacations to Mexico. After winning two tournaments in a row, Lucky Lefty has now tied TaylorMade Kid with 5 tour wins on the season. Those two have won 10 of 18 events. Look for details of the next event from the Tournament Director. He should schedule one to get Lefty and Taylor off their home courses so the rest of the GGW can take advantage of them.

Banks use TARP money to buy U.S. bonds

It makes perfect sense. So you can't get a loan but the banks got a govt. bailout. Then they use the money to buy bonds from the govt.? I mean any idiot can see what is going on. still the rich get richer. Read this article. Just Stop It!!!! This is totally legal but toatally insane. Why can't the bank give us money the TARP money for loans and forgive our bad debt? Then we will be able to buy from them. In our wildest dreams. I am so upset about this.

Event No.17: Lucky Lefty Knocks Out The Champ

Sent By:
Nathaniel Curry On: Aug 08/03/09 1:32 PM



Ladies and Gentlemen; on Saturday August 1, the GGW Tour went toe to toe in an epic, 18 round, must see event against one of the toughest public golf courses in the South Suburbs.

Introducing the challengers, averaging about 6 feet and 198 pounds twelve men known as the Golfers Gone Wild…….Our opponent, in Riverdale, Illinois, with a slope of 124, covering 6,742 yards, a favorite course of the legendary Brown Bomber, Joe Louis “The Champ”…….

Golf on a Saturday at Joe Louis is always a demanding, usually long day. With light rain failing to soften up the hard greens, water hazards jabbing us left and right, long par 4s bobbing and weaving, trees and traps mixing in and out, plus given all the upper cuts we took to the mid-section at par 5s, Joe Louis was a difficult match-up.

However on this day, the GGW was more than up for a fight from start to finish. Beginning with Country Strong’s birdie at #2 through The Gambler’s birdie at #17 and highlighted with an eagle by Kappatain Styles from 158 yards on #16, we matched Joe Louis blow by blow. Collectively, members of the GGW scored par or better on 16 of 18 holes, carding the eagle, three birdies and just two bogeys. As a group, we would have finished with a 3 under 69.

But for the GGW tournament main event, the winner by Technical Knock Out was Lucky Lefty. Miller survived the late round punches from Joe Louis on back to back par 5’s. Lefty was left standing even after those bogey haymakers staggered the rest of the GGW field, finishing with net 66 for a three shot victory.

Medicine Man and Country Strong both had net 69s. Medicine Man was awarded 2nd by decision of only 0.1 handicap strokes. The Gambler and Quick Draw both shot 2 under net 70.

K Styles, using that amazing fairway shot for eagle, won the most skins on the day with six. Lucky Lefty won five skins with a birdie on #8. Cadillac Blue, Country Strong and The Gambler won two skins each. Medicine Man won one.

GGW Match Play Competition continued at Joe Louis. Three matches were on the undercard.

Way Cool (-5) stunned Kappatain Styles, 2 up. Way Cool endured a series of counterpunches, although bandaged and bruised, left the course a winner. Lucky Lefty (+1) won a hard fought struggle over Country Strong, 2&1. The Gambler (+9) scored a 1 up win over Medicine Man by referees decision.

Rifleman, Grade A, Quick Draw, Hawk and Cadillac Blue were just instigators, ring men or pay per view spectators during match play.

Our next event will be the weekend of August 8-9. Watch for email from the Tournament Director. Last Saturday, Lucky Lefty knocked out “The Champ”. How long he retains the title of reigning champion will be up to you. Are you Ready to Rumble?

LOS ANGELES - Court filings state the administrators of Michael Jackson's estate have received the King of Pop's life insurance proceeds.

The records, filed Friday in Los Angeles, are redacted and don't indicate how much the policy paid out. The filings state that money designated for Jackson's three children has been received by a trust being handled by special administrators of the singer's estate.

The filings are meant to augment a petition to give the children a monthly stipend. Another filing indicates Jackson's mother, Katherine, is also eligible for some benefits from the policy.

Live -- Michael Jackson Estate Court/Case he was not broke!!!!

I deal with this stuff all the time. I hope he had his stuff together. He had life insurance and he had $5.5 million with a broker so he was not so crazy after all. For all of you who say MJ was broke!!! Save it.
