    A squid eating dough in a polyethylene bag is fast and bulbous, got me?

    Other info

    My philosophy of Course Ratings: Sorry, I don't have an objective course review strategy. I play 'em and wing it.

    My background is in parks and recreation, so I tend to have a better handle on public courses and how they fit into an overall park design. I'm nit-picky on conflicts with other park uses and play-ability (flow) as opposed to someone who is just evaluating the shots.

    I'm not a very good golfer so things like the challenge level of a top-tier course isn't really my strong suit. I can look at things like variety of shot types, variety of distances, etc., but I'm not really sure for example if a hole is a par 4 or a par 5. Like I said, I just take my perception and wing it.

    As a result, I really don't review courses I consider to be a "3" or over after I play them once. Better courses I like to play 3-4 times in a variety of weather to get a better feel for the design.

    can you tell me the difference between a Classic Aviar and a regular one, and what the history of the classic aviar is vs the current regular beadless aviar?

    I loled at "j'sun's bang shed". He hasn't posted there much. I never thought that "bang shed" comment would take off like it did...

    If it is alright, Cook and I are going to play with Bill and Nathan at 4:30. Cook has a meeting at church for a missions trip that he needs to be at, at 6:00.

    I posted in kugland; but just to make sure. Looks like I've making it to Ozark for Saturdy shindig with LAKERS. Appears we're staying overnight there and playing there, and/or Rolla. You free Sunday?

    Re: production....Ditto, man, I even LIKE rough production a lot of times, but not THAT. :\
    Jukeshoe
    Probably a good decision there.

    I have heard that his country-style album is worth hearing, but never got ahold of a copy.
    Jukeshoe
    Yeah. I was not impressed with his music or his style.

    I thought the cover band show was good entertainment, but maybe a bit messy.

    I never realized he was so "mainstream" as to be on Springer or whatever.

    Madison. :shrugsmiley:

    A lot of the punk rockers up there worshipped him. I never even had heard of him before the lead up to the show.

    I thought you liked The Buzzz? Regardless, I am seeing your POV in regards to the Roc. The only difference is that the roc has more fade then the Buzzz in most situations. However, my X Buzzz is becoming very beat in, and it's becoming a go to turnover mid, which I am excited about. Anyway, back to the 11x...what do you want for it? I would probably have to buy it because, obviously you wouldn't want any of my discs.

    Dave sent me a SS Wiz that is absolute money, great stiffness, and it holds an incredible line. I'm still trying to figure out this JK Aviar I got from McNair, I like the bead, but it's too much like a Magic - which I hate. I want something with a bead, and is nice and stiff. As far as the Rocs, I'd like to have an 11x, how much are you willing to part for it? I played with a dude at OMO that had an incredible 8x that was so beat and gummy, it was the perfect turnover mid I have ever seen...so money. My 12x is just getting perfect, I'm using it so much at this point, I love it. You were right about the roc. In fact, I'd trade you a CryZtal Buzzz straight for it...even though I want to due it badly!

    Do you have any 11x KC Pro Rocs? I have absolutely fallen in live with my 12x, and have been hearing amazing things about the 11x. Im willing to buy or trade if you're game. I am also looking for stiff KC aviars. Let me know what you got!
    Jukeshoe

    Pearly green that I assume is yummy-gummy champ. Probably an 8? condition wise. I weighed it on a digital scale here at my 2nd job and it was 160 every time...then I hit the light in the right spot and could read that it's marked 157. No ink.
    It's a 5X
