I recently found out that a fellow DG club member has passed away. Someone I played a doubles tournament with once on a whim a few years ago. I just showed up the day of the tournament hoping to get paired up with someone, and I got paired up with Rudy. We had just met and had a blast of a time even though we didn't even come close to placing in the top 5 teams. I think we actually were tied for last. lol He was such a free spirited person with a big heart, but that was the last time I'd ever see or talk to him. He had been missing for 14 months and his body was found last week, and they believe it was self inflicted. He had been suffering from depression and just kind of disappeared. A terrible loss. I wish I could have helped him.

They'll be planting 2 tree's in his honor at one of the courses he frequented.

RIP Rudy.

Thanks buddy.

I have a Basket Cases t-shirt I'm getting signed by some members and then giving it to his aunt.

I sent this pic into our local weather station last night after snapping it and they showed it on the air this morning. The weather guy said: "Hope you had a great round!". I did. Thanks Mike.

That's awesome^ nice photo!

Danke. There were a couple of us trying to get a good shot of it, and my camera on my phone is really one of the worst cameras on a phone you can get, but I got lucky and it focused a little better than usual. I did miss the mention of it this morning though. I was notified by a phone call from my lady friend who gave me a the hot scoop. At first, I thought someone died, because no one ever calls me at 5:30am unless it's an emergency of sorts.

This is well under way:

Day 2 has a few teams jockeying for position so far. The general consensus is that everyone's feet are sore asf after day one though. 4 courses per day will do that. They're all up in Michigan right now. They have to finish all 4 courses up near Ludington, then drive 5 hours to a course on the IN/IL border where they have to play hole 1 by 8pm CST to have an official end time.
