There are currently three posts on the Yeti Road Report.
"Brisket for Breakfast" was just added as we left our winter home of Texas for the 2006 Tour.

Enjoy!

Jay,

Love your ramblings but could I ask a favor?

Can you (or ZD) change the text to something a little easier to read? Dark grey text on a black background is tough on these old eyes.

Thanks...--Mike

Thanks Jay, enjoyed the read.

Smittys is GREAT BBQ and the Caddies at the Pecan Open are well worth the money.

Me three. It must be an old man thing, but it is hard for me to read also.

Best of luck on your travels. Don't eat the bbq out east, who knows what it is made from. :p

Mr. and Ms. Yeti need a video camera!

I'd be happy to do the editing and share the results for others to enjoy and post as well at zonedriven etc.

Have a safe and enjoyable Tour, Jay. Say "hi" to the Missus for me.

Gotta love an extended road trip that brings you almost right back home (Houston NT next weekend) just a few short weeks later!

Good luck to my favorite Yeti's (though, that Mullet_of_Yeti character is OK, too).

If you use Internet Explorer, hit control-A and it will highlight the entire page, making the text a more readable white-on-grey.

Looks like it's already changed to white on black.

Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestions. The white is much easier on the eyes. I am working on resizing the images as well as not to make people on slower speed connections have to download overnight to read the next day
This is going to be a great year.......Look for Bowling Green Road Report this week and peace to you all :)

Hey, Jay...one question: Did you can that left-handed putt from the truck? That disc sure looks like it was turning over to bounce off the left side... :o

Sorry Himing, I can't single out support for the Aussies unless you guys show us the numbers. I mean after watching 30,000 Mexicans march down Las Vegas Blvd and hearing about the 300,000 they had in LA you Aussies don't stand a chance. Keep being vocal, change starts with one person.

Aussies unite, no deportation of Himing!!!

Come on America what's a couple more right?

Thanks Mate!. I am going to start my own march and unite the Aussie force.

At Am Worlds in Tulsa it will be me working and 1 guy flying in to play from home. We are now double our size. Aussie's unite.

Thanks Jay, have fun in LA. :D

Nice road report, Yeti...I visit Cincy frequently and I have to say you hit the nail right on the head. Chili parlors in OHIO are so fantastic, the smell when you walk into one of those places (skyline, gold star and new up and comer Dixie Chili) make your mouth water!

Thanks man...

skyline chili!!!!!! NASTY!
I was there and someone said you have to try the skyline.
2 bits into it, I had to speak to the manager.
He said that cinnamon is one of the ingredients. I figured thats why they puTT so much cheese on the plate (to cover up the taste of nasty)Cinnamon is for toast!!!
I am bias......BUT TEXAS KNOWS HOW TO MAKE CHILI!
And our chili has NO beans in it.
Only Yankee chili has beans.
Good to see you all havin fun

It was great meeting many of you in Tulsa last week. I am stoked you guys are digging the Road Reports. I have just posted a new one from the best National Tour of the year, Skylands Classic. I have dedicated this week to backing up that statement in hopes that more tournaments wish to achieve that same level.

With Pro Worlds this next week, look for a combined Worlds Road Report upon the conclusion.

Yeti - What a great write-up on the Skyline gig!

Every tournament director and every host organizer needs to read that review and strive to meet it. Wow! I know I'll be dusting off that story when we get around to firing up the States group again!

Thanks Yeti!

Darn Ernesto! I was all excited cause the Yeti road report was coming through Paw Paw..but alas the wetness of Marshall street coupled with the Lurking Hurricane kept the all powerful Yeti and his sidekick "Twirl" away.

hope to see you next year...and tell Des her trophy went to good hands (Christine) down in NC.

Keep up the good work..as I will keep living the tour vicariously through Jays eyes
