Last Michigan rankings before signups! I have vacation on the brain so I'll be brief. In no particular order so don't get your hopes up or down and remember just for fun!

2012BFT - Will be testing TM M2 for THP, could be a blessing in disguise. MI needs a good tee game for these formats. Moving up.
Tpluff - Always quick to answer questions, bash on Ohio hopefuls and at the ready when needed. With a game that is always ready to go he is holding steady.
Jspangs - Judging by all the working out he's doing he's looking to reclaim his #jspangslong status, but I'm still not sure if can allow a self admitted Buckeye on Team Michigan. It just doesn't feel right.
Michigan Slice - He lives in the North pole, has only the warmth of fire and his PS4 to keep him warm. Hopefully he is still swinging clubs in the garage and not spending all his time playing COD.
Rozo22 - Haven't heard about that golden ticket....or much of anything from him, hasn't reached potbunker status yet, but is getting there. Sliding...
Lions81 - I know I keep going to the Lions reference, but with the screen name how can I not? Calvin has retired and Jim Bob Cooter Lions without Calvin in the mix isn't good for the team. A screen name change may be in order to save a spot.
Wyzyguy - has probably had more swings than everyone else on Team Michigan combined this winter. Inside, outside and now traveling to Arizona, game will probably be in good shape. Moving up.
Stribs - Still leads Michigan hopefuls in driving distance, which isn't too hard btw, but being #stribslong isn't enough in itself and neither is a hdcp based off a par 3 course. Still holding steady.
Solid5112 - Anyone who drinks Hopslam is AOK in my book. Just remember making 25' putts on a sim does not equal real play. Kinda like Gunner's 260yd 4 iron, its just not real.
Musicmaster - Does club regripping in his kitchen! Note to self never eat at his house. However he has admitted he will be there in support of the team no matter what, thats a team player. Moving up.


Rbarthle - Cannot attend, but still is prepping as if he was. However as evidenced by Ohio spring gathering, daughters dance stuff is starting to become an issue. Looks like your stuck playing sim golf, sorry man.
potbunker - blip, blip, blip

Thanks for the update Cap! For the next team outing I'll see if I can wrangle up some Hopslam!

Nice work Jeremy.

I totally forgot Rozo had the golden ticket, wonder when he needs to declare if hes using it for RR by?

Solid rankings update. Damn Lions are infecting every aspect of my life these days. Might have to contemplate the screen name change as requested. Will have to check with JB if that is allowed.

Enjoy your vacation, getting out of here at the right time as it looks like the real MI winter is finally here.
 
Awesome rankings, thanks Jeremy!

I am looking into to shaft options right now for the M2. It WILL be dialed in for the event. Can't wait for signups!

I know, right!? I want something original from the cap! He's gotta have something bad to say about me. I'm short. Young. Inexperienced. Hall of fame tag from a partner that carried me around. Something!

This is true.
You really are over rated.
Way, way over rated!
 
Great rankings Jeremy!

Fine...

Tpluff your HOF tag had you as a front runner. I've have decided nobody from MI should have more HOF tags than the rest of us. This way when we win, we will all be equal! Congratulations you have just plummeted down the list. You now have to work extra hard to climb back up. You may want to bring a ladder.

I love a good challenge! Good captains challenge their teammates, get the best out of them.


I'll stop brown nosing now and work up the chart with promising effort and not empty promises of bribes.

Hello Cap'n. I am feeling good. I have never devoted this kind of time to my game. Not just reps but quality practice and training. Loving the flight of my driver and 3w. Putts are true. Chips & wedges are clicky & crisp. Irons are close. Game is in shape currently. Wish the snow would move on. Can't wait for some interstate THPin in Phoenix. Enjoy your vacation as well. I am happy to be movin on up!

THP Regional Rivalry - Ohio vs Michigan - Sponsored By True Temper

CRAP! Just went back and noticed that I'm ranked 8th out of 10 from the long list of Michigan hopefuls! Definitely do not like my ranking but it is what it is and I have to live with it...might not be sleeping too well at night though.

You can sure bet that I'll be waiting by on Feb. 15th for that new thread to appear on the THP Forum for signing up for this event.

Just a little PSA reminder for those low on the Michigan totem pole (aka. solid, musicmaster, and myself) since our golf-esteem is in the gutter after the most recent power rankings.

Signing up will involve 3 things, but only 2 are a necessity, the 3rd is a bonus entry.
1. Sending an email in to THP (most likely contests at thehackersparadise.com) (this will have necessary info in it)
2. Starting a new thread on THP about golf, clubs or anything golf related
3. Bonus entry - Sending a tweet on Twitter about this event with a link to this thread and including @THPGolf @TrueTemperGolf and #THPRegionalRivalry



PS. I know it's in no particular order...just having fun with it!

Unnecessary shot! But a good one. I know defeat when I see it. Like in Ohios eyes for Regional Rivalry.

Looks like I'm gonna be making more trips to the dome. Anybody who lives close to CJ Barrymores hit me up. I'll be there a lot preparing and training to improve my game! Like tpluff said I love a good challenge!
