Granite State South Golf Tournament Results

As you know yesterday I turned 54 and I started my day off by playing in the Granite State South Board of REALTORS golf tournament at Windham Country Club. I was invited to play by Steve Blier from GMAC Mortgage and we played with two other guys called Pete. Pete Currier and Pete (I can’t remember his last name, sorry).

We started off on Hole 16 and Pete led off followed by Steve then me and then our anchor Peter Currier. Currier and I had great drives with our 3 woods. We didn’t use driver because of the water hazard in Driver range. I hit a five iron on the green pin high to the left. We had four shots at birdie but we let it slip by the hole and settled for par.

GSSBR Golf Tournament

Well, today is my birthday and I turn 54 and I am playing in the Granite State South Board of REALTORS golf tournament. I was invited to play by Steve Blier a mortgage officer with Carlson GMAC Mortgage. Last year Steve invited me and if memory serves me right we may have finished in 4th or 5th place. Not bad considering some groups are pretty well stacked with excellent golfers.

We’ll see how we play today and hopefully we will do real well. We are playing at Windham Country Club in Windham, NH

Atkinson NH Golfing…it can’t get any better

Real estate is networking and where better to meet future customers and clients than on a Golf Course. One of my favorite local places is the Atkinson Resort and Country Club. Not only does it have a great place to celebrate the 19th hole but it’s also a pretty tough course.

Today I’ll tell you about hole # 1

It is very short and a lower handicap player should use no more than a 3 wood off the back tees. I see so many players hit driver and get themselves in a lot of trouble.

So if you set up your shot right you’ll be able to to come into this green with a short iron.

From the back tees it plays about 350 yards and trees abound the right side and the left has a line of trees and a road that is O.B. which leads to the clubhouse.

A long sand trap hugs the left side of the fairway at about 150 yards out and many a tee ball finds it way in the sand. The right front of the green is also guarded by a large bunker and the green is firm and slopes front to back. So, a nice lofted approach shot is necessary.

The course is 6500 yards from the back tees.

Next I’ll break down the next few holes for you.

Golf Season is here and the Atkinson Resort and Country Club is a great place to spend a few relaxing hours golfing.

Wilderness Golf League Season Starts

This is my 19th consecutive year playing in the Wilderness Golf League. We play at Campbell’s Scottish Highlands Golf Course in Salem, NH.

We started at the earliest point on the calendar we can. Some years we have been extended out due to weather conditions. This year was bright and sunny but awfully windy. Our first group started at 3:50 and it was about 44 degrees. We were the 3 rd group and when I finished it was 38 degrees.

At times while standing on the green you had to brace yourself from being pushed by the wind. I also had to switch hats from my golf hat to my winter knit hat to keep my ears warm. Decked out with a nice heavy sweater and an extra large wind breaker and walking the course I stayed fairly warm. I also used my winter golf gloves to keep my fingers from freezing.

I started off this year in the B division as I missed out the A division by .3 points. I played Bob Sasso and he fought me tooth and nail. We started on the back nine as we usually play the front nine on odd numbered days and the back nine on even days.

Super Bowl the Road to Perfection: N.E. Patriots vs. N.Y. Giants

   It’s late in the game and the fans are in a frenzy as Tom Brady and the New England Patriots are marching down the field with ease. It’s 3rd down and three, ball in Giants territory and Tom Coughlin and the Giants call time out. 

Brady sets up in the shotgun as Randy Moss spreads left with Wes Welker in the slot and Laurence Maroney in the backfield. Brady takes the snap and drops back in the pocket. Michael Strahan and Osi Umenyiora put pressure on the pocket and Brady slips to the outside to evade Umenyiora. Strahan cuts off the run as Brady scrambles, He looks deep down field for Moss then left to Stallworth, Welker slides across the middle and Brady pumps and fires a perfect spiral to the leaping Randy Moss as he one hands the pass and stumbles into the red zone as he’s tripped up by a Giant’s defender.
