I'm about as far north as you can get. I'm in Cleveland in a suburb 15 minutes east of downtown. If I pull out of my development and make a right I can see the lake in the distance.

You're in Akron, so I HAVE to ask the question....have you played Firestone? It would be awesome to walk the same fairways that so many great players have walked.

Also, where else do you usually play? I don't know much about the courses down in Akron; maybe you can post some links of nearby courses.

I'm originally from a little South of Massillon, so I know the courses South of here much better. There really are some nice courses in this area and out into Medina. It really depends on how much you want to spend or what kind of round you want to shoot (drinking, drunk, or sober).

I haven't played Firestone, but this summer I think I will be. One of our co-ops here where I work used to do grounds maintenance there and says we could go play sometime. All he has to do is make a call. I couldn't imagine being more nervous in my life than playing Firestone South. Good choice on the 3 wood by the way!

Excellent. Some NE Ohio people. I currently live in the Raleigh area of North Carolina, but was born and raised in Eastlake. I'm extremely new to golf but a couple friends back home golf pretty regularly. We're going to play whenever I go back.

My first time golfing ever was at Fowler's Mill. Too good of a course for a person who at that time couldn't really even hit the ball, but it was fun.

What courses do you guys play in that area?

I'm from the Columbus area but I've spent my fair share in the A-C-Y area.

Lifelong Browns and Indians fan. Played and stayed overnight at Firestone - Akron should be famous for that place alone. Never did stay in the "Quaker Oats Silo Hotel" but it is cool. Everybody should get to go to Canal Fulton. Welcome to the asylum.

Best, Mike Elzey

Go Tribe! Can't say that much about them Clowns though. University of Akron purchased the Quaker from the city recently.

      LIV Golf Coming to Your Town - What do You do?

      By ChetlovesMer ·

      I don't follow the LIV tour so for starters somebody would have to tell me that they are coming. Even if tickets were free I probably wouldn't go. I'm just not interested.  I've been to a fair amount of PGA Tour Tournaments in my life. I've even attended two US Opens... One men's, and one women's. I've been to college and high school tournaments as well.  I'd actually be more interested in attending a Korn Ferry Tournament or an Epson Tour Tournament. Which reminds me the Nationwide Chlidren's Hospital Championship in September is right down the street. I should get tickets.

      LIV Golf Coming to Your Town - What do You do?

      By DaveP043 ·

      LIV golf was pretty close to me in 2023, at the same course that hosted the 2023 Senior PGA.  I didn't go to either one.  I do know a few people who went to the LIV event, and they said it was pretty well attended and pretty well run.  If I had free tickets, I might show up, but I'd probably have to drive 10 miles to park to get a shuttle to come back to within 5 miles of my house.

      By mcanadiens ·

      As long as "in town" means a drive of less than an hour, I'd probably go.  I've never actually been to a pro golf event, so it would be a novelty. Presumably, they'd be playing on a course that I'm not normally allowed to visit, so there would be an interest in just going to see the place. My tolerance for traffic is pretty minimal, so if massive headaches are predicted it would dampen my enthusiasm.

      I would definitely buy tickets and go watch a round or two.
