Mason-Dixon is North-South...East-West must be another matter.

I know what the Mason Dixon line is.

The East Team has never quite had enough players who hit every shot straight and solid.

Why should either of those be considered a laudable criterion?

Havnig watched Frank play, I'm not sure if it's laudable. His brand of golf seems exceedingly boring to me. I can probably fill out his scorecard before he even plays. His preposterous consistency means he misses out on all the joy of trying to hit a 40 yard slinging hook out of a muddy lie and under some tree branches.

I am, however, extremely jealous of guys like Frank, Pete Pittock, and Dan Moore, among others - guys who just churn out shot after shot on the same trajectory and make the game look so simple. Jason Jones and I make for a more exciting team, but it's pretty damn hard for us to beat the Pete Pittocks of the world.

At least you and Jones are tough to beat in talking a good game.

Jason,

I may be straight but I'm a very short hitter.  Let's partner up.  Two UK (Kentucky) guys.

New to the site, but would be interested in playing. I guess you could add another Ky. boy to the East if you wanted.

I am sorry I will miss out in October.

Thanks for all your efforts and let me know what else you may need in the meantime.

I'm out.  East will need a new but assured to be better captain.

I get it, you are mad at the world because you are an adult caddie and few people take you seriously.

Excellent spellers usually lack any vision or common sense.

I know plenty of courses that are in the red, and they are killing it.

He's an OK host….he does run with some big time pros so he's a good guy to know.  ;D

I'm interested.  Will depend on my exhaustion level from the BUDA, the prospects of the Dixie Cup and other activities.  If there is room as the time approaches I will likely be there.

Boys, if I make the Varsity East team, I'll be riding. That will help at least one of you secure me as a partner (unless this is a good-will thing where I ride with a member of the Varsity West.

There is another GCA.com event scheduled for the same weekend that I committed to back in February when it was announced.  I did not realize they were both on the same weekend until this past week when I was putting my Fall calendar together.

I guess we can add "Double Booker" to the list of slurs that are so often associated with you. Maybe you should consider a personal assistant so that these sorts of egregious oversights don't happen again. OK governor?

So, should we have some sort of George Cup v. Midwest Mashie game/bet/contest?

Concurrent GCA events would seem to require some such behavior.
