2022 PA/NY/OH TST Outing - May 1

[boogielicious]

 Bring your rain gear gents.

[iacas]

Thunderstorms this time of year are often in the evenings when it cools down a bit.

[saevel25]

yea, weather.gov has no clue yet what is going on. 0.02" over 12 hours is just a pop up shower, nothing much. 

[billchao]

I played at RNK, I’ll be fine in some showers.

[boogielicious]

If we all bring our rain gear, it won’t rain!

I wish I could’ve been a part of this, but leaving for a short cruise for my wife’s bday today through Monday. Please provide updates & pics as things get going!

If I hit any houses I’m blaming it on @RFKFREAK.

I've played zero times so far this year and have hit the range 3 times,

I think the bookmakers have me at +50 at hitting a house. 😞

[RFKFREAK]

Leaving Saturday night for Twinsburg b/c I have a commitment during the day.  Looks like I'll be getting in at 3AM.

And I thought I came to these things unprepared.

[iacas]

None of us have played much. The weather's been shit.

Well you do live in Buffalo after all!

Looks like there are lots of houses we can hit too! Has anyone played here?

While I'm not attending this outing, I have played the course a number of times growing up. But it's been over 10 years since I was last there. It was always well manicured, but not sure if that's changed over the past decade. 

Even though it's not that long on paper, I feel like it even plays shorter than the yardage would indicate. A few of the par 4s don't call for driver off the tee. In some regards it's a position course. 18 is a nice finishing hole with the approach shot over water. 

And yes, there are plenty houses to hit. My cousin hit the same house on one of the par 5s just about every round he played. If nothing else, he was at least consistent.

Thanks for the scouting report!

Hey, everyone.  Won't be able to make it tomorrow so if there's someone who was on the fence about going and can make it, the slots open.

[Divot Master]

Just arrived. A bit of drizzle is all.

[saevel25]

Well, we successfully dodged the rain. It was a tad windy and the course was very soggy. Still, it was a great time. I will get some pictures up later this evening, hopefully if I do not pass out too early today. I didn't get to bed till around 2am last night. Lack of sleep + 18 holes of golf is hitting me.
