January 21st, Goleno attempts to get a warm up round in Boulder City. The entire Las Vegas valley is under a wind advisory urging everyone off the roads, as the winds are close to category 3 hurricane winds.
This same day, while we were playing in Boulder City, they suspended play on the PGA tour in nearby Palm Spring for high winds, yet we played 36 holes in these conditions.

This is a post from Veteran A. Grant to help rookies get ready for the MGI in 2012.
About 2 weeks out, I recommend preparing for the Miami Golf Invitational by:
– Limiting your sleep to about 3 hours per night.
– Drinking heavily, 2-3 drinks at lunch is a good start. Finish strong at night with vodka, beer, and bourbon.
– Eating greasy food 3x daily, and get back on red meat.
– There is now workout gym at Shula’s, and if you find one, you will not be re-invited.
– Begging at least four banks for a $1,000 increase on your credit cards, in order to be ready for credit card roulette.
– Inhaling 5 hours worth of cigar smoke to adjust your lungs.
– Logging at least 10 hours of online blackjack to understand the fundamentals of the game, as we play “Cups” poolside, and watch out for the “Vegas Sharks”.
– Spending about 2 hours in your local tanning bed, a Grant ritual, without lotion, unless it is my lotion “Tann Summers-Rub me all over you”.
– Sitting in your bath tub for 3 straight hours spiked with a gallon of chlorine and a mix of urine. Your bath tub is only slightly smaller than the hot tub.
– Understanding hot tub rules that when the tub stops, you have to get out and restart it, and also bring another beer from your cooler to all the veterans in the hot tub.
Good luck to the Rookies, as the repeat invite is tough to get! You have to earn it!

Miami Golf Invitational 2012 official release:
The Miami Golf Invitational is officially scheduled for February 29th – March 3rd. It will be again be held at the famed Shula Golf Club on the Senator Course where the fairways on the back nine get tight and there is water on just about every hole.
As for the condition on of the course, we sought out a comment from Kenny Fill, Director of Golf.
January, 19th, 2012.
Good afternoon Craig. I hope all is well with you and your group. The
golf course is in great shape! We are looking forward to hosting the
Miami Golf Invitational.
Regards,
Kenny Fill
This year’s group features ten veterans that all have multiple years of experience and experiences at the Miami Golf Invitational. Unfortunately, the four rookies from the 2011 Invitational did not receive their 2012 invites, as their lack of respect and tradition for the MGI was evident!
The 2012 Invitational features two new rookies, Steve Guolla and Jeff Harris.
Steve Guolla (born March 15, 1973 in Scarborough,Ontario) is a Canadian ice hockey player who played in the National Hockey League. He was drafted 3rd overall by the Ottawa Senators in the 1994 NHL Supplemental Draft. In his NHL career, Guolla played 205 regular season games, scoring 40 goals and collecting 60 penalty minutes.
As part of his hockey signing bonus, he received a lifetime membership to AOL which he still uses for mail to this day. His stat line of more penalties than goals hopefully does not carry over to his golf game in Miami with more penalties than birdies.
Born in Canada, Steve now makes the MGI an international event!
Jeff Harris is from the Cincinnati area, and is a solid 8 handicap. He is a member of the Ohio Valley Golf Association. He claims to be back to back Cup champion in his flight, yet no years were given of this accomplishment. He is a solid match play player with over 20 years experience, and should know when to concede a 3 foot putt.
“The MGI site is set as my home page on the PC!!”
The 12 man group is officially set. See everyone in Miami!

The Senator Course in Miami Lakes which has hosted the Miami Golf Invitational for the past 5 years, and again will be the host course in 2012 just received a fantastic review on Golf Talk Lounge. Click here to read more.
The course is a challenging venue, and worth the trip.
We have enjoyed the staff at not only the golf course, but also at the Shula’s Original Steak House which is on site. Great People, and great fun.
