Oh, how I hate that Carl Peake!

He has lost sight of his purpose. He wanted to make his son into the great sportsman he never was; but he can only do that through bullying and cheating, which makes the whole thing pointless. I look forward to his nemesis, and the self-awareness that should come with it.

Serves Carl right - out there walking around without a jacket on, now he’s caught a cold! Or maybe his allergies are acting up….unless…….heyyyy!!

Sonovabitch!!!!!!!!! Needs a Big Bertha upside his head!!!!!!!!!!!!

The artists have out done themselves again, today using their version of the exclamation point. Kempers angst in P1, Stiles gaff in P2, Carls nose in P2, Stiles astonishment in P3, and finally the exploding bouncing golf ball in P3, well done artists!

Hopefully Kemper will WIN this thing then forfeit it back to Stiles.

That’s an unusual dimple pattern on the golf ball in P3. Titleist experimenting with something new?

God bless you, Mr. Peake!

This is about par for this strip lately.

Since Mark Trail didn’t have to use the Fist O’ Justice on Ralphie Reed, i suggest Dodd and Elrod send him on secondment to this strip so he can layeth the smacketh down on Pa Peake, who is acting very snotty.

So even with all the “moving the balls around” cheating that Carl did yesterday the kid still fell even further behind?

I would love to see Kemper win and then give the trophy to Chris. It would so put his father in his place right there in public.

It made me laugh because it reminded me of the scene on the final green in Caddyshack. :D

Miss! Noonan!

Next hole it will be Hronk!

Kemper must really hate golf. He needs to send a tee shot into his dad’s midsection. I see him quitting soon.
