I only played in one FGI get-together. It was in the mountains of North Carolina somewhere. Occurred maybe sometime between 1997 and 2000? I want to say maybe 1998, but I'm mt sure. I know Persimmon was there, and Moeman. I got paired with the infamous Phileo. I want to say Rickochet was there, too, but I wouldn't swear to it.
I played like crap; well, at least scored like crap. It was one of my worst rounds in years. Persimmon accused me of being a vanity-capper. LOL. Maybe I was, a little. I estimated 11 and I was probably a 12 or 13 at the time. But my score sure didn't show it.
One thing I remember about Persimmon is that he hit a 2- or 3-iron off the tee pretty frequently, and he hit it pretty well.
