Ok, so lets get this settled: Can someone PLEASE get in touch with the courses highlighted so far (CM, Talega) and see if/when we can get a deal on a group. Also, we should try to get a headcount to help with getting a deal ....If there are other course suggestions, speak now!

I know I was in for the 30th, and 99% sure I can do the 23rd, so count me in for either.

Ok I'm in for the 23rd and if I don't hear anything from GD on his inquiry in the next couple days, I'll just email Talega.

Yeah, I have an email into them (I don't have the PGA member pull that Mike has ;)) and will post here as soon as I hear anything back from them.  If they are booked or too expensive, and Costa Mesa is not desirable, then some other options are ....

Mile Square

Arroyo Trabuco

Crossings at Carlsbad

Encinitas Ranch

Anybody else have other ideas???

EDIT:  Oh, and because I figure that it doesn't hurt to just ask, I have also sent an email inquiry into Arroyo Trabuco and Tijeras Creek.

Looks like nobody has said no to the 23rd. So can we call that the official day while we figure out what course works for us?

Ha, I believe I played Encinitas Ranch before (the only course I've played in SoCal), and The Crossings is right around the corner from my company's corporate office.  I stayed in the hotel across the street from it when I started my job training and thought the course looked nice.

I vote for whichever course I can hit more drivers on.

Other suggestions?

Two suggestions to be torn apart: Pelican (too spensive!) and Shorecliffs (blech!)

Wishing Aliso Creek was 18....That course is a lot of fun!

El dorado San Juan hills Black Gold I still like Talega even if its a couple bucks more, I think it's worth it. Industry hills was suggested earlier too (More expensive than Talega).

Out of those two I'd vote for Encinitas Ranch, more user friendly and will definitely be less expensive.

Yeah no PGA membership here, (that's Erik), just gotta talk about how much exposure the course can get being mentioned on a site with 650,00 unique visitors a month.

Agreed.  We need to do the 23rd.  Lets roll with that if possible.

I'm checking with CM.  I'll let you know as soon as I get a price for us.  I'm going with three foursomes for now.... So 12 guys.  We can increase or decrease once we get a firm headcount.  I'll report back soon.

I vote for the date & course that causes the most stress & problems for BeachComber so that I can beat his 5 handicap brains in.

Black Gold in Yorba Linda is a nice 27 hole course, I have played there several times.  It might be a good option.

I'm glad it's the 23rd now as I am going to be out of town on the 30th.

Lurking...waiting for the final call.

You are right, I was thinking of Moorpark CC for some reason.

    • Taking your dispersion and distance in consideration I analyzed the 4 posible ways to play the hole, or at least the ones that were listed here. I took the brown grass on the left as fescue were you need to punch out sideways to the fairway and rigth of the car path to be fescue too.  Driver "going for the green"  You have to aim more rigth, to the bunker in order to center your shotzone in between the fescue.  Wood of 240 over the bunkers I already like this one more for you. More room to land between the fescue. Balls in the fescue 11% down from 30% with driver. Improve of score from 4.55 to 4.40. 4 iron 210 yards besides the bunkers.    Also a wide area and your shot zone is better than previous ones. This makes almost the fescue dissapear. You really need to hit a bad one (sometimes shit happens). Because of that and only having 120 yards in this is the best choice so far. Down to 4.32 from 4.40. Finally the 6 Iron 180 yards to avoid all trouble.    Wide area an narrow dispersion for almost been in the fairway all the time. Similar than the previous one but 25 yards farther for the hole to avoid been in the bunkers. Average remains the same, 4.33 to 4.32.  Conclusion is easy. Either your 4iron or 6 iron of the tee are equaly good for you. Glad that you made par!
