Golf today made me like social distance more

[Albatross]

Beautiful day. Course was packed. Cart girls open. Shot 78 with 4 birds.


The track I played usually is backed up. They put everyone in their own carts unless you were family. Played in 3.5 hours. Usually takes 5 at this place.

First ever cheers to social distancing :toast:

I WAS supposed to go to Streamsong May - that's cancelled - and I'm supposed to go to Ireland in August and I'm assuming that's cancelled

Me shooting 78 may have better odds then me getting to Ireland

 

[StevieRay]

Yea, we play faster now with own cart but got backed up a little

still played in 4 hrs. Usually takes 5

Place is packed with nothing else to do

I think the PGA is starting up in June - we need to start using common sense - golf is not a breading ground for Corona like basketball is

Heard good stuff about Streamsong , they have 3 courses there now?

 

[Seymour]

They have three courses - I'm assuming because of the downtown they decided to airate 2 of the greens leaving one course open - never been but supposed to be world class

Maybe you will find some nice tracks to make it up. Word is some of the better places will make trips super affordable coming up.

Back elbow stay tucked, rotate wrist at impact, open irons a couple degrees at set up......all will be well. Cheers!

Edit.....also also try to hit the front face of the ball....never the back

Off the top of my head my favorite course is Old Head - nothing compares to Old Head - no matter what anyone tells me

Old Head
Pacific Dunes
Whistling Straights
Kingsbarn
Wolfs Creek in Mesquite NV

I go every year for a 7-14 days with a group of people for like 20 years to a new venue - my favorite trip by far is southern Ireland - we went about 15 years ago for 2 weeks playing everything - it blew away Scotland - we also hand perfect weather in Ireland so that taints my opinion

Wolf's Creek is straight out of the bible - the peaks and valleys

Would love to play those 5 tracks

 

[Seymour]

My most overated course is Pebble Beach - $500 a round with a min two night stay - meanwhile, just north you have Pacific and Bandon Dunes which are significantly better

If you go to Vegas it's about an hour drive to Mesquite (Wolf's Creek) - so it's readily available to play

I'm about 200 miles from Bandon.. Hope at some point later this year that I can get down there...
