How many hackers are out there and what is your handicapp?
What is your favorite course?
What bike do you ride?
I have heard all the handicapp jokes...but...lets hear them again. :histerica
I am in -10deg. weather and dying to play some golf. Soooo...
Today I am going to play St. Andrews- the old course! On a simulator :)

I'm a 12 hadicap and ride an '03 LT. I take a Myrtle Beach vacation every year with a group of guys and my favorite course down there is a tough call. Probably the International World Tour although we play 7 or 8 really great tracks each spring.
Several really nice social clubs down there as well.....
Ride Safe!

Rob,
I do not golf; I guess I have not been bitten by the bug yet.
I was a caddy for many years but still not bit.
My theory is they put addictive fertilizer on the course to get you hooked :D
We are getting the same weather you are now, I think.

Don't play much anymore since I got the LT. Enjoy spending my time riding and just don't have the time for two hobbies. Wasn't very good at golf anyway (18-20 hcp), but now enjoy getting out a couple of times a year. The amazing thing is that I don't play all that much worse than when I played every weekend - of course my expectations are a lot lower, so I enjoy it a lot more. Great courses south of us in the Pinehurst area, but having gotten to play #2 as part of a corporate outing earlier this year, definitely have to label that as my favorite. But no better than I am at golf, I enjoy hacking around the local muni courses when I do play.

I'm not worth a darn. But I love the scenery, especially here in Western NC. When I do get invited to play I sure don't drive a cage to the course:)

I'm an 11 handicap. Just got back yesterday from Myrtle Beach. A little cooler, but warmer than MN! I own a 05 LT. Can't wait for Spring! I'm wondering how those golf racks that fit on the back of the cycle works. Anyone try it?

I am a 13 handicap love to play just don't get to play due to family ,work and the Bike. Go to Myrtle Beach every year for the past 10years to play at their Magnificent courses. How do you guys haul your clubs to the course for local play? I am strapping mine this summer hopefully.

I gave up golf a few years ago. It made me use too much bad language. Lessons, practice, range, trying to not care where the ball went, etc. never improved my game. A neighbor and I used to play army golf quite regularly. He was a little better than me, some days. Interchangably, we were Sergeant Hacker(from Gomer Pyle, USMC) and King Hacker. My best golf story is from the day his then 4 year old daughter was misbehaving. Dan gave her a spank on the bottom then sat her on his knee and told her she had to listen to what he said because he was the boss. She looked at him through those BIG crocodile tears and said...
Wait for it!
"Huh-uh. You a hacker."
I thought Dan was going to hit me. We still get a laugh out of that one and that was, Holy Moly, 10 years ago!
Since I took up motorcycling, I might still throw out a bad word every now and then, but it's not due to frustration.
