Rules/AXE,
First, good to know you both feel your procedures went well – here’s hoping you
guys do not remain on the “Binnacle List” for long.
That said, we’re going to have some issues with your request for handicap
status. You will note that paragraph 7, subparagraph c(12) states:
“Exception: Neither Section 8-4c(iii) nor Decisions 8-4c/1 or 8-4c/2 of this
manual will apply where the player is formally recognized as a husband. Under
USGA ruling 701-2-D of August 21, 1931, such a player is considered to be
unable to handle his own matters under all conditions without his wife’s
approval and therefore cannot be granted further consideration for any other
special status amongst his golfing peers.” And, there you have it… Of course,
if it was me, I’d give you two strokes a hole shipmate but “rules are Rules”
(see what I did there?).
Cheers,
/Ace

GAGGERS,
Here I lie all broken-hearted; tried to golf and only putted. Update:
Sarah's surgery went well last week, and mine seems to have gone well
yesterday. Sarah will be in a cast on her right arm for about six weeks from
now. I should be able to pick up a club in about a month, and with some luck
will be able to take a full swing about Las Vegas time. So, we will fit in
exceptionally well with the rest of you non-good golfers. We will, however,
expect a temporary break on our indexes. I'm sure all of you will concur that a
stroke-a-hole would be equitable with "the Rules of Golf" (see below).
By the way, I've negotiated a special deal for lodging--Sarah has agreed to
share our part of the two-bedroom suite with me. We flip for who gets the couch
(or the big tub might do the trick.). Anyway, just wanted to pass this option
along as you may not have thought of it for those who might yet join us.
Section 8
Handicap Adjustment for Injury or Disability
Q. Can the Handicap Committee adjust a Handicap Index® for player injury or
disability?
A. Yes. Under Section 8-4c(iii) of the USGA Handicap
System<http://www.usga.org/Handicapping/handicap-manual.html> manual, a
Handicap Committee can grant an increase in handicap for temporary and
permanent disabilities (as determined by the Handicap Committee). The modified
Handicap Index must be identified by the letter "M" to indicate it has been
modified by the club's Handicap Committee.
For example, a player having recent wrist surgery may be given a modified
Handicap Index while recovering. Whether it is a temporary or permanent
adjustment, and the amount of adjustment, is to be determined at the club level
by the player’s Handicap Committee.
Please visit Section 8-4c and Decisions 8-4c/1 and 8-4c/2 of the USGA Handicap
System<http://www.usga.org/Handicapping/handicap-manual.html> manual for
further reference.

Hi All,
Thanks to Rico for his SOGAGG distro efforts...
I'm hoping some of the non-Vegas Gagger's will change their mind once they see
the PLAN.
Here is a rough draft of our upcoming golf outing to Vegas in beginning 23rd
April. This year I'm proposing that we reach deeper in our pockets to play
some nicer and of coarse more costly links than in our past visits. Generally
the range will be somewhere between $75 and $125 pp. Since we have another
outstanding week at the Grandview for only $175 pp for the week, I think we can
splurge on our golf choices. I have not made any effort yet to secure tee
times but I plan to work that in early March where the except reservations that
far in advance. We may be able to get better deals if I make our tee times
closer to our arrival date.
I've included a list of the courses we played in '14 and 15' at the bottom of
the rough draft FYI.
So I welcome everyones comments and suggestions. Looking forward to hearing
that Trek, Skully, Divot and OB are joining in the fray!
Cheers
dc aka Chi Chi

Excellent effort to date on the SOGAGG Distro list. Just herding a few
remaining cats.
Old Slice, Docente, Trek, Divot,
When able please do the following:
1) Go to https://www.freelists.org/list/sogagg
2) Enter your email address, ensure that the dropbox box is set to Subscribe
and press Go
3) Confirm the confirmation email
4) Miller Time :-)
I will let the group know when everyone is in and we can simply just put
sogagg@xxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:sogagg@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> as the only addressee for
email.
FWIW, persons can have multiple email addresses (ie work and home email
accounts). Just repeat the above process for each email one wants on the
distro list. Lots of Miller Time for those with multiple email addresses :-)
Makes me think of Rocky's Burgers and Brews!
Ciao,
Rico aka OB
