2SKILLS INTERVIEW BY JASON TENZER

What is the 2Skills Stroke of Luck?
JM: The Stroke of Luck® game is a melding of putting and games of chance, like poker, blackjack or high/low. You throw a die to determine your putting “tee” and then putt for your best hand. Any game of chance like five-card draw or Texas Hold ‘Em can be played with “SofL” (Stroke of Luck).
How did you come up with the name of the company and product?
JM: Tom Muldowney, our Board Chairman, came up with the idea after attending “one-too-many” charity golf event rainouts. The combination of two skills, putting and poker, gave rise to 2Skills, LLC; the “Stroke of Luck” is also an inference of combining two games. One of our board members, Dr. Arnie Rosen, came up with the moniker of the game; one suggestion out of 200+ names
What if I don’t know how to play poker?
JM: Poker is a simple enough game to teach someone; certainly, most people know the ranks and suits of a deck of cards. For kids or novices, start out with a simple game of “high/low.”
Will being a good putter help my chances of beating my friends?
JM: Absolutely, and there are ways of introducing a “break” to the game mat, or special conditions for the 4 wild card spots. Also, each roll of the dice makes the next hand different because the “tee” changes
Will playing The Stroke of Luck improve my putting skills?
JM: Yes indeed. “Practice, practice, practice.” That’s how you get to Carnegie Hall, and how you improve your putting skills.
During your “office meetings”, who at 2Skills wins the most?
JM: Board member Karl Schmitt is undoubtedly our best player, and he won’t hesitate to tell you that. ?
Which professional golfer would you like to challenge to a game of 5 card stud on the Stroke of Luck?
JM: Karl naturally says he’ll take on all “comers,” but he’s positive he can trounce Phil Michelson.
When I see you at the PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando in January 2020, what will our wager be on a game?
JM: If Karl’s putting for the group, oh…how about a “steak & martini dinner?” If John Muldowney’s putting, simply bragging rights
JT: I love a steak & martini as much as the next guy, but I think I’ll stick with the bragging rights.
Tell me something about 2Skills or The Stroke of Luck our golfers would like to hear?
JM: The game is contagious. Country clubs place it in their Club Grill for their members/guests. It goes great with a Scotch and a cigar. Folks have taken it to business meetings, after golf tournaments, and several have showed up at wedding receptions. The new version is lighter, with more vibrant colors, the stimp is rated at a more accommodating 10-11, and it is certainly more affordable. It is a great Christmas gift for the whole family, or the “man-cave.”

The Bogey Man’s Guide to Accidental Course Exploration: Or, How I Found My Ball (Eventually) in the Rough of Life

Ah, golf. The gentle game of precision, patience, and occasionally, profound personal humiliation. You know, the kind that makes you question all your life choices, particularly the one where you decided to spend your Saturday morning chasing a tiny white ball around 18 acres of manicured torture.
Boo here, reporting live from the depths of a particularly thorny patch of “rough” that I’m fairly certain wasn’t on the course map. My mission? To recount a tale of a golf shot so spectacularly off-target, it became less about breaking par and more about breaking new ground. Literally.
It was a glorious Tuesday. The sun was shining, the birds were chirping, and my swing felt… well, it felt like something. I was on the par-4 7th, a hole notorious for its deceptive dogleg and a bunker that swallows balls faster than a hungry teenager devours pizza. My plan was simple: a nice, controlled fade, landing gently just short of the green. A textbook approach, really.
What actually happened was less “textbook” and more “abstract expressionism.” My driver, bless its misguided heart, decided that “fade” was merely a suggestion, and “controlled” was a concept best left to professional pilots. The ball, a brand-new, gleaming Titleist Pro V1 (because, you know, optimism), launched with the trajectory of a startled pheasant and veered sharply right. So sharply, in fact, it cleared the cart path, hopped over the maintenance shed, and disappeared into what I can only describe as a dense, untamed jungle previously known as “the woods bordering the 7th fairway.”
Now, a lesser golfer, a more sensible golfer, might have declared it lost, taken a drop, and moved on with their dignity mostly intact. But I, dear readers, am Mr. Bogey Man. And the Bogey Man doesn’t abandon his children, especially when they cost $5 a pop.
So, armed with a 7-iron (optimism again, clearly), a profound sense of misplaced determination, and a faint hope that perhaps a deer had picked it up and was using it as a chew toy, I plunged into the abyss.
The first five minutes were a blur of tangled vines, unseen roots, and the distinct feeling that I was being watched by small, judgmental woodland creatures. My pristine golf shoes quickly became mud-caked relics. My carefully tucked-in shirt became a casualty of low-hanging branches. I swear, I heard a squirrel snicker.
Then, a glimmer! A flash of white amidst the green. “Aha!” I cried, startling a family of robins. I pushed through a particularly stubborn bush, only to find… a discarded plastic water bottle. My heart sank faster than my last putt from 3 feet.
I pressed on, muttering to myself about the unfairness of golf, the existential dread of lost balls, and whether it was too late to take up competitive napping. Just as I was about to give up and declare the ball a permanent resident of the arboreal underworld, I saw it. Nestled perfectly at the base of an ancient oak, gleaming defiantly, was my Pro V1.
The triumph! The sheer, unadulterated joy! It was like finding the Holy Grail, if the Holy Grail was spherical and prone to slicing. I carefully extracted it, brushed off a few leaves, and held it aloft.
Then I looked around. I had no idea where I was. The fairway was a distant, hazy memory. The cart path? A myth. I was utterly, gloriously lost.
It took another fifteen minutes of bushwhacking, a brief but intense wrestling match with a particularly aggressive thistle, and the accidental discovery of what I’m pretty sure was a very old, very moldy sandwich, but I eventually stumbled back onto the course. My playing partners, who had long since finished the hole and were contemplating sending out a search party (or at least ordering another round of drinks), looked at me with a mixture of pity and amusement.
My score on the 7th? Let’s just say it involved a number that would make a mathematician weep. But the story? The adventure? The sheer ridiculousness of it all? Priceless.
So, the next time your ball decides to take an unscheduled tour of the local flora and fauna, don’t despair. Embrace it. See it as an opportunity for accidental exploration. You might not break 80, but you’ll definitely have a story. And isn’t that what golf is really about? (Besides the frustration, the lost balls, and the occasional snickering squirrel, of course.)
Until next time, keep those swings (mostly) in bounds, and remember: even a bogey can be an adventure.
