Clue/Question: What the magician had on the course.
Answer: A BAG OF TRICKS
(I think the new guy has, now, got the art of the scramble down pat. Nothing obvious in the clue words, or the answer letters! I guess you could say that the name, “HOCUS POCUS”, on the side of the golf bag is a “bonus clue”. But, if so, it’s not really needed. From the the clue/question, the guy’s outfit and spiel, I’m sure no one experienced any confusion. Golf purists might take offense to this scenario. Even Bill Murray observes a certain amount of decorum on the tees, fairways, traps and greens. Though, anything goes in the rough! Be well, friends. And, when possible, do good.) — YUR

Sent you a reply to the 3/25 puzzle, but don’t know if you got it. Anyway, this was a good one today. Two new words to the Jumbles database in this puzzle and three new ones yesterday. When you add in the new one on Monday, that’s six for the week and over 15 since the first of the year. Hard to keep up! Database now over 2251 words; wow!
I got a few comments from Lesley and one from Marc, for 3/25. Are you either one of these people? You are coming up as “Anonymous”. With your attention to the words and the database you sound more like my old buddy, ralis95.

I’d love to get a hold of that database. Drop me a line and we’ll talk.
I had a funeral today and lots of bathroom remodel drama in the past week, so I am very far behind in my Jumbles! This one looked like fun, though! I WILL BE scrambling tomorrow! Love Caddy Shack! Love golf! As for the 3/25 Anonymous? I’m not sure I wrote on that day, but I don’t remember database being used. I’ll check!
On 3/25 I wrote about the incorrect circling of letters on the Jumble website.
Okie Doke, Jeff!
