Sorry I didn't make the last 5SK instructional school.  I was really bummed, but had to fly 6,776 miles for a meeting. z6_surrender.gif

You were still here Friday! :-)

I know somebody who may have a connection at Monarch Beach. ;)  Bueller?  Bueller?  Anyone?

Monarch sounds good. We were there for a wedding the week before Talega. My daughter played harp for it.

My anonymous source tells me that if he shows up to Monarch with riff-raff like me, that he will lose all credibility and reputation. (Which is pretty funny considering this fella always likes to play in cargos. ;))  Anyways ... Monarch's weekend rate is $210, so no matter what kind of deal they could give us, it's going to be too expensive. :)

However, what about Tijeras Creek?  I mentioned it last time - its a really nice course - but I cannot remember if I ever got far enough to find out what kind of rate they'd give us.  Their regular rate on the weekends is $120 so they'd also have to really help us out a lot to get a decent rate.  As nice as the course is though, I'd say its worth looking into if enough people are interested.  Can't hurt, right?

First things first though ... for the sake of Erik, Jerry, Brandon, or anybody else interested in making travel plans to join us, we should probably work on locking down a date.

we need to have Big Cheese (aka GolfyDaddy) playing and i think he said September he was busy.... so October maybe?

He is the most frequent poster on TST, and everyone wants him in their group in the "what TST member would you want to play with" thread.

im down to pay $100+ for a nice course but i think we would lose a bunch of players at that price.  What does the group think?

$100 ok?

or

Would not play if it was $100 ?

For what little it's worth, I'd be far more likely to commit if we were playing Oak Quarry, Oak Creek or Tijeras, as opposed to Temecula.  After my bitch-out session last week, I understand why my opinion might hold little (i.e.'no') weight, but I assure you guys, I'm not the type to back out of a golf date, especially with the added prospect of a session with the 5SK guys!

Tijeras is "meh" as a course, but is pretty fun, and could be easier to get on.  Oak Quarry is a great track, very fair.  Oak Creek in Irvine is a personal fave, and I have little experience at Black Gold.  I played it once, and remember it was very hilly.  I also liked Goose Creek, although it's been literally years since I played it.

LOL.  Don't plan around me!  (And I'm going to have to start cutting back on my addiction here anyway because work is starting to pick up again, finally.)

Anyways, lets do dates!  Since it sounds like IE/Temecula is at least a strong contender for the next time around (makes sense considering it was the top vote getter for the summer and is central-ish) I think that we should consider no earlier than the end of September because summer is just barely winding down out there.  Since everybody seems to like Sundays, lets maybe vote on these options:

September 29

October 6

October 13

October 20

October 27

That is just online rate I am sure we could get this down to a resonable cost but again just a suggestion?

Any of the dates should work for me...  The 10/27 date would be me and my Pops since he is in that weekend visiting.

I bolded the ones that will work best for me.

October 27 is my wife's birthday. We don't care much about birthdays, except visiting San Diego may be a good excuse as a "birthday present."

Septermber 29th is a no-go for me, as I'll be in New York that weekend.  And October 27th is my anniversary, so count me out for that weekend as well.  As far as I know, I have nothing going on 6, 13, and 20 of October, so if ya'll choose any of those ... I'm most likely in.  :)

    • If it's not broken don't fix it. If you want to add grooves to it just because of looks that's your choice of course. Grooves are cut into putter faces to reduce skid, the roll faced putter is designed to do the same thing. I'm no expert but it seems counter productive to add grooves to the roll face. Maybe you can have it sand-blasted or something to clean up the face. Take a look at Tigers putter, its beat to hell but he still uses it.     
    • I get trying to limit relief to the fairway, but how many roots do you typically find in the fairway? Our local rule allows for relief from roots & rocks anywhere on the course (that is in play). My home course has quite a few 100 year old oaks that separate the fairways. Lift and move the ball no closer to the hole. None of us want to damage clubs.
    • Hello, I've been playing a Teardrop td17 F.C. putter for many years and love it. It still putts and feels as good or  better than any of the new putters I've tried and it's in excellent condition except the face has dings in it ever since I bought it used that kind of bother me. I was just wondering if it's possible to have some really shallow horizontal grooves milled into the face on a "roll face" putter. I think I would rather spend some money on it instead of trying to get used to a new putter.  Thanks
    • I agree with @klineka & @DaveP043 above.  When a new member first joins the club they cold be told that they are not eligible for tournaments until they have an established HCP.  As you said, it only takes a few rounds.  If they do not to post HCP that was their choice and choices have consequences.  If playing in the tournament is important to them then they should step up and establish an HCP.  Maybe they miss the 1st tournament, is that a real big deal?  And if it is a "Big Deal" to them then they had the opportunity to establish the HCP. As for not knowing how to report for HCP I assume your club has a pro and they should be able to assist in getting the scores reported and I suspect out of state courses may also have staff that can assist if asked.
