Will really miss these and NY bred turf ALW's when lawn season ends. They've been the bread and butter score opps of the whole summer. Yes they have them in Florida, California and New Orleans, but the NY versions have been highly lucrative this annum as the 'right' price plays have made themselves at least partially evident on a regular basis..
