The point is it ought NOT be held in Jacktown. No reason for it other than money crossing palms. Ought to be held in Madison where the state was showcased on international television (albeit rather weak reporting and spotty footage). What can be shown near the Jacktown Country Club other than the Krystal at the corner? Or maybe the 'shuttle' from the vacant Kroger over to the 'venue'. <br /><br />This is akin to a beauty pageant in downtown Birmingham. <br />Back-Swingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-23159138332079744002016-10-26T14:00:17.477-05:002016-10-26T14:00:17.477-05:00Yes, the PGA Magnolia Classic.
