ChitShow Fore
Crazy to think it’s been a year since ChitShow III, and even crazier to think it’s only 11 months until ChitShow V. But I can’t tell you how much fun it’s been, to be able to relive ChitShow Fore, and all the madness that happened over three days of nonstop golf.
As my wife calls them, “my internet friends” seem to always be so much more. What started as a question to someone I noticed happen to be from Illinois as I was growing my Lamb Crafted collection, then led to being involved in a chat group that never seems to slow down, I’m constantly surprised and thrilled with the people involved. It’s truly the epitome of what most people say, you come for the Lambs goods, and stay for the people. It’s amazing how so many people can support each other in all facets of our lives, while only interacting in person, in most cases, one or a few times per year.
ChitShow Fore did not disappoint, and our crew was SET UP! Wednesday started at Prairie Landing, with a quick 18 to warm up. Getting to ride with Jonathan Pagel and Trent Donahoo was a pleasure, and a study in how much Fireball can disappear before noon. Huge shout out to Mark Cabrera for getting everyone out to White Eagle, where we were treated to a top notch track and some more amazing times. It was great to spend some real quality time with, and getting to know Grant, Jacob and Beau.
Thursday was a day set up at Nettle Creek, for 36, including a scramble in the afternoon and stroke play in the morning. I wish I had the winners of each flight noted, but big shout out to each person who took home a tool. We had a great group in the morning including Yuzo, Chance and Cole, though none of us played to our handicaps, we enjoyed each other’s company, had a few cold ones, and some of us even snuck a few naps in on the back nine!
I thought our afternoon scramble team was going to be invincible, and though we rallied late on the back nine, David, Abed, Jake and I fell a few strokes short of victory. But pretty confident we led the way in laughs laughed, putts missed and fashionable trousers. We may not have played our best golf, but with our 12some+ we got to see some amazing shots, and some thrilling putts - talking about you Rawlings!
A HUGE thank you goes out to Kyle White, Grant Ransom, Tim Eakers, Mark Cabrera, and of course Tana and Tyson Lamb for making this event another memorable event! Thanks to anyone else I might have missed who helped make this a day most of us won’t forget anytime soon.
See ya’ll at ChitShow Five!!!!
