Ace,

Thank you for your continued generosity and leadership.  Looking forward to
seeing the new shirts and to playing in the July outing.  Regretfully, I am
out of town during the May and June events.  Hoping you all will take
pictures for the inevitable best seller.

Warmest wishes,

KD

Good Sunday morning fellow SOGAGGers,

Its a beautiful Mothers Day and I hope youre all enjoying the sunshine
and (unusually) dry weather

Ladies and Gentlemen, its time to plan for the May SOGAGG outing and yours
truly is looking forward (REALLY looking forward) to being back out with the
familia (hat tip to OB here).

Were striking out to new territory this month:

·         Carlton Oaks Golf Course (Date:  Friday, May 24th)

o   Very centrally located

o   In quite good shape (Rules just played it this week and confirms same)

o   Good breakfast/lunch facilities (Note:  Im hosting breakfast so come
hungry)

o   Reasonable price for a Friday:  $59

o   I cant make tee times until this coming Friday (that works since Im
arriving back from my D.C. travel Thursday evening)

o   Drum roll:  Our beautiful new SOGAGG golf shirts should be ready for
distribution.  What color, you ask?  Blue and Gold

§  And yes, Brassie will be receiving a White, a Green and a Blue and Gold
shirt.

·         Ah but, he will be showing up to play without any of those.  Need
I say more? J

But wait, there is more:

·         The Joint United Through Reading/Support The Enlisted Project
(UTR/STEP) Charity Golf Tournament for Military Families (Swing for our
Heroes) (Date:  Friday, June 28th)

§  Admiral Baker (North)

·         Again, very centrally located

·         The following have already committed to supporting this event (as
SOGAGG has done each year since its inception):

o   Shaft

o   Bagger

o   Divot

o   Axe

o   Chi Chi (our Man of the North is once again sacrificing body and soul
to come down and join us)

o   Birdie

o   Docente Ocho

o   WOXOF

o   Rules

o   sHank

o   Ace

·         This gives us 11 players to date.  It would really be good if we
could get 16 Society members out.  Ive not heard back yet (unless I missed
it) from:

o   Skully

o   Hazard

o   Trek

o   Old Slice

·         I will pay for all hands up front and we can settle individually
later (paying me does not preclude you from taking the tax deduction if you
itemize your taxes).

·         OB is a maybe.  Anyone wishing to send threatening letters stating
there will be reprisals if we dont get full participation contact me for
addresses.

Finally (its about time!), please block out the last ten days of July
(exact date to follow) for the 2nd Annual Mount Woodson Mountain High
Escape SOGAGG outing of which Im hosting.  Hosting in this case means
breakfast, the round of golf and lunch.  Exception:  That pitcher(s) of beer
being bought by the net winner.  Mount Woodson in July is a cool place to
play golf and we had an absolutely wonderful time last year

A number of action items up there gang, please give me your inputs as soon
as possible.

Cheers for Mothers Day,

/Ace

13 Unassailable Golf Truths

We're reluctant to say certain things always happen in golf, although it
often feels that way. You always miss that fairway left. You always run out
of tees. There's always a work emergency when you sneak out at lunch. The
point is golf is a game of habits, not all of which are welcome. What are
some of the most universal trends we've noticed? Here's our list.

1

The players in front of you will all be struggling to break 100.

none will be the right one.

Your best ball-striking round of the year will be the round when you don't
make anything.

6

You will have a day where you miss every fairway but make every putt for
double bogey.

The moment you notice a hole has a drop area, you ensure you'll be hitting
from the drop area.

miserably.

shot.

The ONE time you happen to be running late for your tee time will coincide
with shift of a starter who takes his position way too seriously.
