I live close to Bent Tree Golf Club. I like the course, although I'd argue 17 and 18 are pretty weak finishing holes. But that's neither here nor there. 

I was signed up for the Irish Open Shamble on March 28th. But, for one reason or another all of my golf cronies have backed out on me. 
Anyone in central Ohio going to play it and need a fourth? 
Or, can we scrap together a foursome off this forum? 

Let me know if any of you are interested. It might litterally be the first time I get to play this year. 


Experience Columbus golf today at Bent Tree Golf Club. Our course is open and waiting for you!

If we can get two more I'm in. I've played Bent Tree once or twice it's not bad.

That might be my first round of the season too but I'm hopeful I'll be able to get out before that.

I don't see any reason why we wouldn't have you. 

All we need is one more.

I can’t do that weekend, but Shambles are a pretty good format. Good luck and have fun!

This mostly impacts @klineka, @Bonvivant, @CarlSpackler and I. 

As of right now Bent Tree is still planning on going forward with "The Irish Open" and "The Irish Open 2, the Sequel". 

We still have a spot reserved. If any of you are thinking of dropping out for social distancing reasons just let me know. 

I'm assuming that Bent Tree will be taking some special precautions. I'm also thinking that we have an advantage as we are signed up for "The Sequel" which is on March 28th, we may learn from what happens at the first event on March 21st. 

I'll keep you all posted.

Thanks for checking in. I'd imagine that the Irish feast is cancelled? This wouldn't change me wanting to play, but just curious.

Well, Panther Poop, boys!

The Irish Open and The Irish Open 2, the sequel. Have been postponed until they can be rescheduled. 

Sorry, gentlemen. I'll let you know if and when they reschedule.

Does anyone still want to meet up and just play a round? I will still probably play that weekend regardless. Can be at that course or a different one around the area. 

As far as I know most of them are still open with the exception of the City of Columbus courses (Turnberry, Airport Golf Course, Champions, etc)

That would be fun, and I would still be willing to make the trip. Walkable course preferred for me, but will ride if it's a must.

You should probably leave me out for right now. Now that the Irish Open has been postponed. I think my bride has plans for me. 

I'll report back if that situation changes.

    • I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.    
    • No one in the world is as smart as Phil thinks he is.
    • Get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you don’t like practicing then give up now. You don’t have the passion to become a pro. Unless that mentality changes you won’t do well under stressful situations.    Call the PGA Tour and ask. They probably have resources available.

    • Thanks man, sometimes it’s hard to improve bc when I’m not feeling comfortable I don’t like practicing bc I get frustrated. Any advice?
