Thanks for the comments guys.

"When we come to visit, I'll bring my clubs" Absolutely.
Sandman:
That course (Trona) looks virtually impossible to play on. I assume you need the neon coloured balls so that you can find it....in the fairway?

"I went to the practice range yesterday with a friend (hadn't touched a club since 86)... I can barely move my fingers today. "
Dude...relax your grip. Your not out there to pleasure yourself.

"I think the wang-out rle is universal..." I was introduced to the rule when I was living in Canada. I think the Canadians just wanted to see my wang.
LePaul: "I have to ask...did you wear the pink shorts?" I was surprised to see this question so far into the thread...I figured it would have been one of the first. But, to answer your question, no...the pink shorts are for work. I don't own any pink golfing attire. Who is the character who was wearing all pink at the US Open...some Irish guy I think? Can't say it looks good at all, and golf is not about whether you win or lose, or how you play the game...it's how you look on the course that is important.
Frenchy: "Is Mid Ocean your favorite golf club in Bermuda? Have you tried the government owned ones?"
Yes, by far. I'm not a member there...yet, but my father and all my partners at work are. I have been offered a membership since they made me a partner, but I haven't played enough recently to justify it, mostly due to a bad back and no time due to small kids. After this round though I may just get my application in.
Port Royal is the best govt course. I've played it in the past but haven't in a number of years. I play Ocean View every once in a while, but not thrilled with it at all. St. Georges Golf Course is a nice course and fortunately I have not been recognised up there after my girlfriend wreaked one of their carts about 12 years ago after driving us off a cliff. NEVER let your girlfriend drive the cart! Just don't do it....EVER! They have erected a fence now where we became airbourne so we possibly saved a life or two since then.
I think I've played every course in Bda actually, except Tucker's Point, the newest one. I played it before they redid it...but not since.
