!st of all, I didn't think you got in planes anymore much less parachuting! I have not laughed that hard since your last video, when you turned the engine off to stop for the rocket. I am glad you are finally coming out of your shell and letting everyone finally know who coined it first. Muffy was perfect as ways, smiling out loud all the way.

Thanks, Mark.

Muffy has that character down, having grown up around them southern socialites.

Oh it is real all right. Although sometimes it only manifests itself as no tree shall ever be cut until fully dead. Had a President here who had the landowners afraid to cut trees on their own property. I cracked that pandora's box open in year one trying to gain some water views. But it is still very hard to remove trees on the course 2 decades later and that president is no longer living.

Matt,

When I tried to drop a greenkilling pine, Snafoo himself, inspired by Ike's tree, uttered the line, "If that tree is removed, it will destroy the integrity of the golf course."

 

Snafoo still lives, yet the trees are gone.

No tee times or golf balls? Sounds like heaven to this Turfhead.

Dave,

I may have made that last part up. Poetic license and all that.
