Well, I'm still in.
It was touch and go there for just a bit. But I have the greatest wife in the world who helped me make sure I'm still in on this adventure. 

So, here's my checklist.

  • I'm available
  • I'm completely healthy (Fully Vaccinated, plus I got a flu shot for this year already.) 💪
  • I have a hotel for Friday Night
  • I have golf clubs
  • I have cash to cover both the round on Friday night and the lessons on Saturday
  • Eric won't be board, as I have plenty to work on
  • The only thing I need now is some descent weather Friday afternoon

What could possibly go wrong?

You realize your question will bring about change?!     TV shows usually ask that question and then all hell breaks loose.  I'm not saying we're going to blame you for anything but it's an option!  😂

I'm looking forward to the trip. We'll see you at the course Friday afternoon!

Eating more than @RFKFREAK isn't the problem. Functioning after eating that much is another story all together.

So I have a soccer game Friday at 6:30. So, what I think the schedule Friday might be is…

1:35 - I'll watch you guys play some golf.
6:35 - I'll go play some soccer, you guys return to freshen up, whatever.
7:45 - I'll meet you at Outback, if you can tolerate sitting next to a guy who just played soccer. 😄

Alternatively:

1:35 - I'll watch you guys play some golf.
6:35 - You guys go wherever the heck you want to eat, I play soccer, and I see you the next morning.

Either is good by me.

If we have time, I'd come watch.  I'm a soccer fan.    We'll meet you at 7:45.    Looking forward to it.

Ha ha. 😄 I think we can do call-ahead, but Erie is a sleepy town, so they'll probably not need it at that time.

Glad to hear.  I also had a scare today.  Wife called @ noon and was very sick and Dr. wanted COVID test.  Her & I both came back negative for not Covid & Flu and I have a friend stopping by tomorrow & Sat. To make sure she is OK.  Thus I am packed & ready.

Haha! Second witness here. It happened.

Thanks @iacasfor your patience and organized approach to teaching all of us. I took lots of notes and expect to get out and practice more today. Good weather ahead all week here in NY so no excuse to not work for it.

Great meeting everyone! I would absolutely return.

I've blogged about my wanderings since 2003. I love roaming throughout the USA looking for remote public golf courses to play.

And YES, it was worth it.  I feel we should look at doing this again, maybe in the spring?

    • Day 312 - Better finishing position, fuller backswing, PRGR to see how swing speed was. 
    • Going to a Friendsgiving tomorrow and I am bringing a no-bake cheesecake. I make the crust too big, but I think it turned out good. The filling is really good. 
    • Sure, but how was your alignment? 🙂 Day 53 - 2024-11-22 Mirror work after getting back home. Wife is a superstar for her career/job/whatever.
    • I would say your back nine is the second nine you play that day. It's part of what makes getting some of those holes tougher. Or, if 18 holes are played pretty often, out of A, B, and C, and you often play A and C, A is the front and C is the back, regardless of the order you play them in. That way not birdieing C #7 isn't overcome by birdieing the easier A #7 on a day you played it C-A instead of A-C. But, at the end of the day, nobody really cares except yourself.
    • Day 128: played 9. Nice little even 9, with 2 birdies and 2 bogeys.
