Hello all...
Back to Boston to deliver my son home and stop at the same green I've hit 11 times now... I arrived @ 11:30 and see plenty of fresh plug cuts... all neatly back in, but someone has been here recently... and I'm sure this place has been hammered... but I'm staying and determined to get at least 3 keepers...
In the 1st 90 minutes I had one wheatie... then on the back (this place is one city block in size) I got a 22/24 @ 7-8... Repeats 90 deg out... Come on fatty I said...
Its a FATTY !! No shield on the back means 1859 !!! but wait... I see 1492... stamped on it...
