Thanks to JoeF for supplying this Nugget... lol imagine Trump playing the lost 9 :) surreal

Article in todays Toronto star..

nt Today, 10:10 AM

In an article about Donald Trump recently installing a golf simulator in the White House.

"That system offers choices: players can play on a digital copy of the famous Saint Andrews course in Scotland, or on fictional courses made up just for the game. One offers the chance to play nine holes among “temples, volcanoes and dinosaur skeletons” in a South American jungle.

Players then hit a real ball into the screen, and sensors track the speed, spin and path of the ball. Then, the computer takes over. It transforms that real shot into a virtual one, and shows the ball soaring over fairways (or dinosaur skeletons) toward the hole."

Not sure what Obama had in there, but it must have been a piece for him to rip it out and use his own money to update it - lol

 

Anyway, I also think its nifty to imagine The President playing one of my tracks.  Really, there isn't much to draw him to one of mine as opposed to one of the other 300, but its still fun to imagine.

Sounds like his playing on a TM4 and TM Simulator software(PG).   Somebody should Tweet him and tell him he can play all of his courses on JNPG....  :lol:

Oops. I guess it’s not used during “executive time”

“Trump has built his schedules around long blocks of “executive time” – unstructured periods in the day where the president’s schedules show no official meetings. He often spends this time watching TV, tweeting, holding impromptu meetings and making phone calls, aides have said.

The news outlet Axios examined three months of Trump’s schedules, and found that “Executive Time” accounted for 60 percent of his scheduled hours. Axios said that Trump usually did not leave his residence for the Oval Office until about 11 a.m.

Trump has responded that he uses the time productively. “When the term Executive Time is used, I am generally working, not relaxing,” he tweeted shortly after the Axios report.

The White House official said Trump has not used his new golf simulator during executive time – or at all since it was put in.”

I'd build just the course for now ... you could always add a wall if that ever comes to fruition.

 

I love desert courses.

We can always use more!
