I have conducted a thorough review of the current (2019) rules, having absorbed
each word in the Player’s version of the Rules of Golf
https://www.usgapublications.com/collections/rules-of-golf-2019/products/the-players-edition-of-the-rules-of-golf?variant=12581304270928,
the full version of the Rules of Golf
https://www.usgapublications.com/collections/rules-of-golf-2019/products/the-official-guide-to-the-rules-of-golf-effective-january-2019?variant=12624113696848,
and the Decisions on the Rules of Amateur Golf
https://www.usgapublications.com/collections/rules-of-golf-2019/products/decisions-on-rules-of-amateur-status?variant=25702053126,
and I can find no rule that allows “The Committee” aka SOGAGG in this case to
make such a local rule. Such a change also seems arbitrary and capricious, so
my vote on this particular issue is to let dead cats lie and not discuss the
issue further.

Hi Ace,
Happy New Year! Hope you and KD start feeling better soon. Any of those
Saturdays work great for Birdie & myself, and we can pick up 2 additional
people from Frys lot that morning.
We had a blind draw (score cards are placed in a hat after the round and 2
person teams are picked) best ball (using handicaps) format at our couples
outing that made for a lot of fun after the round. If we have an odd number of
players, the low net player goes solo using just his/her score (punishment for
being low net).
I can assist with the handicapping, or with any other format you'd like as
well.
Since 2019 is a year of rule changes, I'd like to propose a SOGAGG rule change
for 2019. The penalty (buying a round of drinks) for not hitting it past the
ladies tees is waived if the player goes on and makes a net par, or better
score on that hole.

Happy New Year SOGAGG Colleagues!
I hope you all had a great holiday season. I for one, am recovering from
the world's nastiest cold, KD is trying to work his way back from acute
bronchitis, and I'm guessing we're not alone in that regard. You know, I
don't know which is worse, the cold itself or the cold medicines my wife
makes me take that cause me hallucinogenic dreams. Maybe I should check to
see where she buys this stuff from.
Society members, what do you say we start the new year off with a good,
plain old fashioned SOGAGG outing where we can all get back together, catch
up, remember to conduct ourselves in a barely society-acceptable manner, and
just.have.some.relaxed.fun?
I would like to host our first 2019 outing at the Warner Springs Ranch
Resort. I think we actually conducted a SOGAGG round there a number of
years ago before it closed down. It's back up and running now under great
new ownership, although it is not yet in tip-top shape, which pretty much
falls in line with our play. I was thinking we could do the usual muster in
the morning at Fry's Electronics for those who want to car pool. I'm also
thinking of setting a tee time of around the 0830-0900 time frame so we can
get some breakfast in. Let me know if we should go off earlier or later.
Here are the three dates for consideration:
* Saturday, January 12th
* Saturday, January 17th
* Saturday, January 26th
Let me know your preference(s) and I'll get us registered and paid for. All
we have to do is show up, probably hungry, and tee off out in the quietude
of a golf course with no neighbors and lots of wild turkeys, etc.
I'm hoping we can get three foursomes. It would really be good to put the
band back together and kick off the new year with some laughs and hard times
being given. We should all be back home by mid to late afternoon to enjoy
the rest of the weekend with the more sane people in our lives.
All the best to the best,
/Ace
